Question

regeneration of model

Hi,

Is there any setting in creo 2.0 so that whenever i regenerate the model the instances also get regenerated. At present i have to either regenerate the instances individually or verify them in the family table. so that time consumed in regeneration is reduced.

thanks

There is a list of config options. Please download the Creo 2.0 config options pdf. Or send me a mail, I can forward it. Crenzema@plmcad.usgengineering.nl

If you save the model, it will query if you want to verify the instances.

Well, it does have to regen the model to calculate mass. Don't think you're going to be able to skip that step.

Steps to get this to work...

> Add your material information

> Add post regen relations for Mass and Volume (other posts on this)

> Set configuration option "mass_property_calculate always" (only set this when working with FT's or suffer the regeneration delay)

> In FT dialog - show Mass Properties

> Verify...

Mass properties will be calculated for all instances...

Bonus

> Add materials for each instance (so one instance is brass, one steel, one aluminum for example)

> Add the material to a column in the FT

> Use drop-down to change the materials

> Use above procedure to regenerate and calculate for each instance through verify.
