Customize the visual indicators for the Classification list of values in a Quality Characteristic

You can customize the visual indicators that appear in the values of the Classification list in a Quality Characteristic. This allows a quality engineer to identify the criticality of a specific classification when they are working with a Quality Characteristic.

Procedure

1. In BMIDE, add the custom values of the Classification list in the following format:CopyiconName = ‘indicator’+<name of the value that appears in the Classification list>In this example: iconName = indicatorCriticalCharacteristic

The internal name of the Classification list is Qc0Criticality.

2. Use configuration builder to register indicators.

3. To display the custom visual indicators in the Control Plan norm document, do the following:
   
   Convert the visual indicator image to the Base64 string format by using an online tool, such as www.base64-image.de.
   
   Locate the ControlPlanAIAGReportStyle.xsl file in the \acp0awcontrolplan\controlplanreports\Resources path of the Teamcenter installation directory.
   Example C:\Apps\tc\tc2312\TR\install\acp0awcontrolplan\controlplanreports\Resources
   
   
   
   Add an entry for the custom visual indicator image by using the new LOV value and the image Base64 encoding string as below:
   Copy<xsl:if test="$imageName = '<name of the value that appears in the Classification list>'"> <xsl:value-of select="'data:image/svg+xml;base64,<image base64 encoding string>'"/> </xsl:if>

                                            Import the Control Plan report
                                              definitions to the Teamcenter server by running
                                              the import_export_reports utility from
                                              the Teamcenter command prompt.

                                              user's default group is considered.
