Enable product visualization through preferences

You must enable the product visualization capability so that the business users can visualize a product structure either in the embedded viewer or in the stand-alone Teamcenter lifecycle visualization product. Preference Value TC_show_open_in_vmu_button Set the value to true to make the Open in Lifecycle Visualization button and menu command visible to users. TC_Schematic_BOMView_types Set the value to the required BOM View type so that users can view and mark up schematic diagrams, including electrical routing, hydraulic, and piping diagrams.

Example For viewing schematics of a piping system, set the value to Piping System View. TCVIS_allow_NGC_expand_mode By default, a Non Geometry Component (NGC) attached to a BOM line is expanded and displayed in the viewer. To disable the expansion, set the value to 0. TCVIS_enable_NGC_feature Set the value to false to disable the expansion and display of NGCs. This value of this preference overrides the value of TCVIS_allow_NGC_expand.
