Version of Creo File

Hello

 

I am having Creo 4.0 M030. I would like to know version of CAD file opened in Creo. For example, I have opened a.prt.2 into Creo, how can I come to know that it's 2 version file opened in Creo? On Creo title menu, it just displays a.prt.

 

Note : Please do not get confuse with config option "save_file_iteration". This is to decide whether to create new version on each save or not for part file. What I need is to know version (.31 or .32 for example ) for an opened part file in Creo.

 

Thanks and Regards

Ketan

I don't know of a way within Creo but if you look at the .prt file in a text editor, you can tell what Creo release and build code the file was last saved in.

Hi

 

I am not looking for Creo version and build code. I am expecting Creo CAD file version.

    Perfect. This is what I need to know for a CAD file.Thanks a lot.

     

    I am wondering why this version (.32 or .33) is not displayed on Creo title bar as abc.prt.32 ? It shows only as abc omitting extension (.prt) and version (.32) details... Earlier I have seen title of Creo model window showing abc.prt.32. Am I missing some config option or setting for this?

      I have had the config.pro setting Martin mentioned for years, and from the verbiage in the list of options, that's it:

      "Controls the display of the object's full file name
      (including its object‐type suffix and its version number)
      and file path in the window title and Model Info display.
      Yes ‐ Displays full file name and file path. No ‐ Displays
      object name only."

       

      My header bar always shows me the version, and the state (e.g. WIP).

      thank you all for responding on this. Config option was the one which I could not recall.display_full_object_path worked.
