Altreps is supported as of NX 10.
In order to support native placing of "alternative representations" for NX10, the macro "cns_place_nx10_teamcenter_altrep.macro" has to be used. In addition to already available placeholders two new have been added: <<CNS_ITEMREVINDEX>> and <<CNS_ALTREPINDEX>>. These have to replace the numbers in the following macro lines when self-recording:
CUSTOM 25 PdmUI_BrowseApp * TL_EXPAND * (1) * 1 ! CUSTOM 25 PdmUI_BrowseApp * TL_EXPAND * (1 <<CNS_ITEMREVINDEX>>) * 1 ! CUSTOM 25 PdmUI_BrowseApp * TL_PICKED_ITEM * (1 <<CNS_ITEMREVINDEX>> <<CNS_ALTREPINDEX>>) * 0 ! CUSTOM 25 PdmUI_BrowseApp * TL_SELECT * (1) * 0 * 0 ! ... CUSTOM 25 PdmUI_BrowseApp * TL_SELECT * (1 <<CNS_ITEMREVINDEX>> <<CNS_ALTREPINDEX>>) * 0 * 1 !
NX 11 and 12 do not need the special macro. The "normal" placing macros are sufficient.
In addition, in ifnxteamcenter.cfg, the key TC_allowItemAltRep=1 has to be set for customers, which have activated Altreps for templates (<ShowAltrep>Yes</ShowAltrep> in the respective .pax file). This applies for all versions.
