Manage unconfigured data in a product view
You can manage unconfigured data within a product view (3D snapshot) in Teamcenter. You can use preferences that help business users define how Teamcenter handles saving product view data when certain view configuration options are active. Users can save data in the assembly viewer, including current items, zoom factor, rotation angle, and pan displacements in a product view (sometimes called a 3D snapshot or snapshot view). You can set the following preferences to determine how the system creates a product view when unconfigured objects are shown: Preference Description Vis_PV_InvalidConfigWarnLevel If set to Warning, Teamcenter displays a warning message if any of the options specified in the Vis_PV_BlockingViewToggles preference are on, but you can still create or update a product view. If set to Prevent, Teamcenter prevents you creating or updating a product view if any of the view configuration options specified in the Vis_PV_BlockingViewToggles preference are on. If set to Off, the state of the menu commands does not affect whether product views are created or updated. You can also set this preference with the Product View Creation Preferences→View Toggle Warning Level option. Vis_PV_BlockingViewToggles Specifies the view states that are evaluated when the Vis_PV_InvalidConfigWarnLevel preference is set to show a warning or prevent the creation of a product view. You can also set this preference with the Product View Creation Preferences→View Toggles to consider option.
