I would like to create a Mapkey that will select a specific Plane.  Is there a way to do it without using the mouse?  The Plane is not always in the same place in the Model Tree.  

 

Thanks

Use the find tool.  Just make sure you record all the clicks and picks in your mapkey.

    Hi Doneill,

    I did it with Search Tool, in this example (creo4) I search for ASM_FRONT:

     

    mapkey bb ~ Command `ProCmdMdlTreeSearch` ;\
    mapkey(continued) ~ Open `selspecdlg0` `SelOptionRadio`;~ Close `selspecdlg0` `SelOptionRadio`;\
    mapkey(continued) ~ Select `selspecdlg0` `SelOptionRadio` 1 `Datum`;\
    mapkey(continued) ~ Update `selspecdlg0` `ExtRulesLayout.ExtBasicNameLayout.BasicNameList` \
    mapkey(continued) `ASM_FRONT`;~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `EvaluateBtn`;\
    mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `ApplyBtn`;~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `CancelButton`;

     

    I hope it helps you.
