VDS-MFG-Sample 2024.3, Inventor.xaml in CAD.Custom

[Goran.Kis.]

Hi all,

I am currently testing the samples and have noticed an issue with Property Values. Specifically, when Initial Values are set in Vault, they do not appear in the window as expected.

Here’s what happens:

• Main windows show empty field
• The option to choose a Property Value is available.
• When selected, it writes the value to the file.
• However, the next time I open the window, the value appears blank.

This seems to be an issue with the values not retaining or displaying correctly.

Could you please advise on how to resolve this?

It woks in old VDS-2022-Manufacturing-Sample window.

What is your Vault Update level? We had this issue in 2024 RTM but resolved it with updates. I checked the the latest 2024.3.1, and the list values with initial values work as expected.

Hi @Markus.Koechl ,

Thank you for you response.

My current versions are....
Inventor VDS:

Inventor:

Vault client:

Vault server:

For installing i have used web installer directly to 2024.3 (Inventor and Vault client). Server is installed as a RTM, patched and then migrated (school workflow).

Thnx,

Goran

I have just checked on another computer....

If i use out-of-the box VDS window than it is showing:

But if i use customised from VDS-MFG-Sample 2024.3 it is not working:

Thnx,

Goran

Ah, you are right - the Boolean Type misses an attribute IsEditable="True" which has been removed to workaround the mentioned issue. Yesterday, I checked pull-down/listvalues, but not the True/False selection. So, to immediatly resolve your issue, you need to replace the style trigger for Boolean with this one:

<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Typ}" Value="Boolean" >
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate>
                <ComboBox Text="{WPF:ValidatedBinding Value}" BorderThickness="0" IsEditable="True">
                    <ComboBoxItem Content="True" />
                    <ComboBoxItem Content="False" />
                </ComboBox>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</DataTrigger>

Thank you for the heads-up on this issue!
