Question

Accessory_window_display

I heard about a config option "accessory_window_display" at our regional user group meeting last week that wassupported in Creo 2.0 M100. This is supposed to allow you to have your active workspace browser run outside of the Creo window but remain interactive. This will be tremendously useful to many of my colleagues.


I set the config option to "undocked" but nothing seems to happen. What am I missing here, or have I misunderstood what it is supposed to do?

I should note that I tried it with IE version 8, which we use as our standard browser and the embedded Mozilla browser as well.

This option has to do with the Model Tree / Layer Tree.

Andrew, I believe the option you want is below. We exprienced some issues with itwhen introduced sodefinetely test it before makingit a global setting for all users. MaybeM100 hasit more stable and reliable.

I should read my own notes better.. it's "web_browser_in_separate_window" and it works as advertised even inthe M090version of Creo


Sorry for the confusion..
