Hi all,



I have parts that are being taken out of intralink and I need to have their
parameters stripped. I cannot find / remember how to do that - But I know
that I have done it before. Anyone know how?



Thanks



-Nate

system or user generated?

These are system generated parameters.



You saw the suggestion “allow_create_pdm_param” Hopefully that will work, but:



That is maybe a hidden parameter in Creo2? I am not able to enter it using the Config Editor and my experience is that in Creo2, manually editing the config.pro does not get saved… Am I wrong in this? I cannot imagine Olaf Corten using the config editor to massage his config.pro - that would be like tying his hands behind his back. How do I get that option in?

Actually, I found this :



let_proe_rename_pdm_objects



Sounds like the same thing but for Creo2?

The let_proe_rename_pdm_objects config just lets you rename the file once you get it out of IntraLink. It doesn’t impact parameters.

Yeah – I just figger’d that out. Thanks.

Hi Nathan,

allow_create_pdm_param yes has always been a hidden config setting but it definitely works in Creo 2.0 M090 – I just tested it. You must be in an unlinked session for it to work.

Edit the config.pro in this directory to load it:

<loadpoint>\Creo 2.0\Common Files\M090\text\config.pro

Then it will load every time Creo launches.

Awesome – Thanks for your patience, Mike.



It works…



I am thinking that my experience with the Creo session not keeping my manual changes to config.pro had more to do with option order and organization (i.e. comments) Does anyone out there keep a nice orderly config.pro? Creo seems to rewrite the file each time I save it with the order of creation preserved and it ignors my reordering of entries. I like(d) to keep my config organized into section – file locations, mapkeys, import settings, geometry related,… etc. I don’t think that is possible any more. Am I wrong?

It doesn't work for me 😞


I added the hidden option to my config.pro, restarted ProE (WF5 M220), opened an old part, the DELETE is still greyed out for the Intralink parameters.

Regards, Hugo.

Hi Nathan,

The config option allow_create_pdm_param has been around since R200i2.

I just tested it with WF4 M220 and Creo 2.0 M100. And it works.

Just open your config.pro with a text editor and add the line
allow_create_pdm_param yes
(yep, I wouldn't do it any other way ... 😉

Now start a Creo / ProE session not connected to a Windchill server.

Open your part and remove all parameters.

Note: you will not be able to delete parameters which are used in any relation.
Remove those relations and you can remove all parameters.


Kind regards,

Olaf Corten
