Hello


per default when Creo Element is launched two home pages are loaded into 2 different tabs.


We managed to change on thanks to the option web_browser_homepage


but how can I control the second tab (and what if I want 3 tabs to load at start up ? )


We have not yet managed to figured this out.


Thank you

    Hi Bjarne



    I guess this is a good start not to have the 3Dmodelspace page loading but instead we want to have another page loaded.


    In other words, when ProE start to have 2 pages loading at start up.


    It is possible in IE and very easy to do but in ProE, we still do not know how to do it


    Thank you

    I have the same question. In Creo 2.0 two tabs load by default: "Creo Academic Resource Page" and "3DModelSpace." I have been reading the documentation, but have not found out how to have our local URLs load up by default.

    In the favorites there is a nice option to right click a folder and select "Open in tab group." All the favorites listed in that folder load automatically in multiple tabs. The config.pro option web_browser_homepage does load one URL as the home page. I have tried using a list of URLs for the web_browser_homepage option. The results are only one tab loads.

    I would like to hear if anyone has resolved how to open multiple default tabs in the embedded browser for Creo 2.0.

    Thank you,
    Cathy

    Set this configuration option to not load the 3D Model Space page:
    enable_3dmodelspace_browser_tab no

    You can use a weblink page as the home page. The weblink page needs to do the following:

    1.

    using javascript set the current page url

    *

    window.location.href = "

    2.

    using session.RunMacro() with a macro to open new tabs and set their url to something

    *

    you have to use a macro (mapkey) because

    o

    weblink does not have a CreateNewTab() method

    o

    using javascript window.open(" "_blank", ''); will open new windows instead of new tabs

    I have attached a working weblink page that sets the original tab to a url and opens 2 new tabs each with a different url.

    Good day,

    I would like to know if there is any more information about this regarding how to add a tab on the home page?

    I know that you can turn the 3dmodelspace one off and that you can change the default web page, but how can I add another tab with other information?

    Thank you
