Change Action Reject – Auto demote connected parts from Frozen to In Work?

Hi, I’m configuring Change Management on the 3DEXPERIENCE Cloud platform (R2026x) and I have a question about the behavior when a Change Action (CA) is rejected. In the CA we use a route template for approvals. On the route we use “Promote Connected Object” on completion and “Auto Stop on Rejection – Immediate”. In Change Management settings, the options like “Automatically demote Change Action when approval is rejected” are available for the CA itself. What happens now: When the CA is rejected,

Performance Degradation and System Hangs When Loading 3DEXPERIENCE-native Physical Products in SOLIDWORKS

Problem Statement: We are experiencing critical performance issues when opening assemblies in SOLIDWORKS that contain Physical Products created directly within the 3DEXPERIENCE platform (including Duplicates and those created using SOLIDWORKS templates). When these components are loaded—even in Lightweight or Large Assembly Mode—SOLIDWORKS triggers an "on-the-fly" conversion process that leads to the following: Severe Latency: Opening speeds are significantly degraded compared to

CATIA V5 → STEP via Derived Output in PSE (R2022x On‑Prem) — Is EXH License Enough?

Hello everyone, I’m working on an on‑premise 3DEXPERIENCE R2022x environment and trying to convert CATIA V5 files to STEP using the Derived Output function inside the Product Structure Editor (web client). I currently have the Engineering Data Exchange Manager (EXH) license, and I would like to understand the following: Is the EXH license alone sufficient to generate STEP files using Derived Output in the web client?Or, is an additional conversion server / backend service required to perform

They are developing a prototype fusion energy plant designed to change the landscape of clean

Delete some collaboration spaces

Hello, I need to delete some collaboration spaces, and after deleting all the files in them, and after a first attempt at deletion, a message informs me that remaining objects need to be moved to their control space. Then the message (see photo) appears, and the space is still there. What can I do to delete these spaces? I should point out that I am an administrator.

Comparing drawings in the Enovia Compare app, possible?

The Enovia 3D Markup app allows one to compare drawings overlaid on top of each other, however, if there are many revisions/branches of that drawing, then picking the one to compare against can be difficult when the selection comes up. The Compare app is great, because launching it using the "Compare with Previous" option from a Change Action automatically selects, well, the previous version without needing to choose a version. However, the Compare app doesn't seem to allow for comparing

Inquiry regarding default visibility of Finite Element Models (FEM) in 3DPlay and Product Structurer Editor

I am writing to ask for a solution to optimize our workflow regarding the visibility of Finite Element Models (FEM). Current Workflow: Our team primarily works in the Product Structure Editor (XEN) app. To maintain a clean tree structure, we keep 3DShapes hidden.

Design Review for Desktop - Sectioning using surface. How do I use a surface with multiple faces?

I'm using the "Sectioning using surface" command in Enovia Design Review. It works well when the surface only has one section (like the wavy surface extruded from a spline in one of the screenshots). When I make a surface with multiple sections, like the second screenshot with an extrusion from a two-line segment sketch, the section looks a little wonky. I noticed that it doesn't select the entire surface, and I cannot select the surface from the tree, only from the 3D Geometry itself. So,

Useful Tip✅| View Functional Tolerancing & Annotation (FTA) Data using 3DPlay

Did you know? Any user in the value stream can view the Functional Tolerancing & Annotation (FTA) data without native CAD application, using the 3DPlay web app available with the fundamental 3DSwymer (IFW) role? The FTA data is essential during the product development process to ensure design clarity and drive manufacturing readiness. How? Simply open the product in the 3DPlay web app and choose the Scenario Chooser. From the available options, select 3D Tolerancing and Annotations. This opens

How to upload third party documents directly in "published" maturity ?

Context We have about 60% of all documents (PDF's mostly, although some DXF/DWG's too) are produced by suppliers. As such they must not be deleted or otherwise updated other than through a new version of the document. We have implemented major-minor revision strategy. We are "on cloud". Most staff managing third party documents have "author" status, some are just "contributors". We use Bookmark editor app Request How do I indicate at the first upload that the document is to be in published

when will is be possible to use a stylus to write texts in the widgets?

Context I use Onenote for taking quick notes in meetings and then I convert these to text, in OneNote, then I coy part in a post in 3dSwym, not very efficient. Furthermore, when wrting text with the stylus in the Whiteboard the text is not really legible, despite deactivating the smothing functions. Request I would be a huge advantage to be able to go into "manuscript mode" in both 3dSwm and whiteboard, is this planed anytime soon?

[BL] Promote children when releasing parent

Is there a way to implement business logic with the following behavior: When an assembly is released under a Change Action, all of its child items are automatically released as well? Currently, the process requires performing a change assessment on the parent (assembly) and manually adding any related child items that are not already released in the same Change Action. We would like to simplify this workflow by automatically promoting all associated child items within the same Change Action,

Attribute mapping between 3DEXPERIENCE properties and MS Office (Excel, Word) in on-premise environment.

Maturity control rule for linked objects?

I am curious how others handle the maturity state for linked CAD objects in their engineering BOMs. One common use case we have would be a machined post processing of a cast part. The body in the cast part will be published and pasted with link into a new part that will represent the final machined part. Currently, the machined part could be on a CA and released before the cast part is finalized and realized. Is there any automation to check for the maturity state of linked data during the

How to create a Task from a Change Request?

Is it possible to automatically create a task and or start a route after creating a Change Request? Currently I only see Issues assigned to me in the Collaborative Tasks widget, no Change Actions/Change Requests. Is there a way to set up something like that using change requests? Or show CAs/CRs where you are assignee in the Collaborative Tasks? Thanks!

Enovia Design Review tools

Hello, This is Surendra Balu from Mainspring Energy. We are currently using SolidWorks EPDM and working to migrate to 3DExperience PLM (2025x FD03). The anticipated go-live date is February 2026. We currently use a third-party tool for our design reviews and plan to adopt Enovia Design Review tools moving forward. I shared a link for the webinar that took place some time ago, but they are asking for more detailed information. Is there a good whitepaper I can share with our users? Please note
