I wanted to try the model tree independently but I want to change it back. Nothing that I do gives me the options to re dock it in the window settings, even after deleted the configs I entered.

help! is so annoying now. thank you

well I think I have a solution for you.

For that option to be selectable, you must close all but one window, and only then may that option be toggled.

It's probably in the config.win. If you haven't customized the windows I think it can be deleted; just to be safe, rename as config.keepme and restart.

Ever since you posted this question, I've been tempted to try this

What does PTC have to say about this oversight in their specifications?

Is the "display as separate window" option grayed out?

or is it that you can check and uncheck this box?

it's very confusing. hopefully I recall this correctly, add these 2 configs..

www_tree_location=out

enable_tree_indep =yes

restart Creo and goto windows settings and then you can set which side, etc

I'm not sure why I couldn't get it back in, I've done it from time to time if I need a lot of columns. i wouldn't recommend it.


i would recommend floating the layer tree with.......

floating_layer_tree=yes

i've never had a problem reverting that, it requires a restart too.

does that mean your model tree is now docked?
