Is it possible to block the System colors, Interface and Theme options in Creo Parametric (10.0.6) from unauthorized user changes through config.sup?

Hello,
Yes, it is already blocked in Confi.sup, but these options in question are not blocked.
Responding to your curiosity, my intention is to standardize all stations that use Creo. In the case of color blindness, I can later create a Mapkey to change the color system temporarily.


Hi,

colors mentioned on Block-Colors-2025-07-02.png picture are saved in creo_parametric_customization.ui file. AFAIK administrator cannot block them.

I think unlikely.

Have you tried adding a system_colors_file to the config.sup to see if it locks those settings?

 

Just curious as to why you would want to do this? Sometimes users specifically need to change colors due to vision limitations such as color-blindness.

Seems like preference like this doesn't interfere much with work, but maybe I'm missing something.
