Model Appearence Libary Path

Hello,

 

I am trying to modify the Library directory for the Creo-Appearence Manager.

In our actual configuration the path of the Libary is (Installation-Path)

C:\PTC\Creo 3.0\M130\Common Files\graphic-library

Instead i would need to provide an appearence Libary that can be edited by an Administrator on a Server-Path.

 

I know that i could use the "My Appearence" Tab, and simply browse the diffrent Library Files. (And preset the Standard-Searchpath)

 

But, the Folder Tree, thats avilable in the  Library-Tab would be a lot more user-friendly, because i will have to provide a big amount of Appearences. (diffrent .dmt-Files) 

 

I couldn't find any Config-Options for this. 

 

Thanks.

Hi,

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for the quick answer!

     

    The PRO_TEXTURE_LIBRARY worked fine! 

    I had some troubles with setting up the library Directory, because the Folders kept appearing empty.

     

    I found out, that the path you choose for your pro_texture_library has to be the Folder containing the libraryfolder.

    For Example the "Common Files" Folder in Creo Installation-Path. This one has be set in the config Option. 

    the subfolder "graphic-library" contains the structure provided in your link. Then it works.

     

    I already did Setup the File on Network and it seems to work as intended!

    Thanks for the quick Response!
