Properties for Specifications

These properties configure specifications.

For more information, see Configuring Specification Properties.

Property Name Property Description Valid Values
emxEngineeringCentral.PartSpecification.NoFileRequiredTypesSpecify the types that do not require a checked-in file. When a CAD object is promoted to the Frozen state, no check is performed to ensure a file is present. However, when the associated part object is promoted to Review, a check is run to ensure that there is an attached CAD object and that the object has at least one file checked into it. This property lets you skip the check for certain specification types that can be promoted. This setting is empty by default.
  • CAD Model
  • CAD Drawing
  • Drawing Print
  • Part Specification

Specify type properties. For each specification type, the emxEngineeringCentral.properties file contains a property that defines the base type of the object.type_{specification base type}
