A customer has special Item type for SE Part and SE Sheetmetal files and
another Item type for SE assemblies. However, you can only set one default Item
type for a 3D file with the preference SEEC_Default_Item_Type.
Is it possible to add more Item types as default? Or is there another solution
which would allow using more default Item types?
Solution
For a Solid Edge file, when the custom property "Teamcenter Item Type" is empty
we will use the value in the Teamcenter preference SEEC_Default_Item_Type. If
that is missing, we will use the first value in the SEEC_ItemTypelist_* preference.
So the workaround for this issue is to add a custom property for the Item Type
to the Solid Edge template file (the managed seed file). This value will
overwrite the SEEC_Default_Item_type and make it possible to set another
default for a specific file type.
