Hi There,

I'm looking for the variable that limits the Model Manager search Results to 2,00 results.  I would like to change this variable to a larger number for a particular search.  Any info is greatly appreciated. TIA!

From the customization guide:

<QueryLimit>

  
Section:
Options
Required:
Yes
Value type:
Integer
Default:
1000
Product:
PTC Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager, PTC Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager
Description
A PTC Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server database may contain thousands of objects of a particular type. You can set the query limit in your custom xml file to restrict the number of objects returned on a query. You should not set this number lower than 200, because some global queries will error out if the number is set too low.
Example
This example shows the query limit set to 500:
<QueryLimit>500</QueryLimit>

Thanks Max. Can you tell me where the custom.xml file is located?

your XML file is located in the %APPDATA% directory.

From the type of questions I recommend you let your Administrator do this - if you have one.
