Assembly Zooming Creo 6

[SusanConnally]

Why does creo 6 zoom away to a random spot after placing a component in an assembly? Is there a setting to change this? every single time I have to go back and zoom to the place where I am working.

Don't know of a setting; I do have this mapkey that may be used to restore the view to the last one before such changes:

mapkey v5 @MAPKEY_LABELPrevious View (v5);~ Command `ProCmdViewPrev`;

Hello @SusanConnally 

This functionality is expected. SPR 2823209 was raised against this to our R&D in the past, but was intentionnaly closed without resolution, because system works per default according to our current specification (all Creo Parametric versions).

If you would like to avoid this (no Zoom Factor change upon >Component >Assemble action), the suggested approach is to change the way how components are assembled, preferring Separate Window instead of Main WIndow for Component Display option:

• This can be driven as a new default with following config.pro options

accessory_window_display docked

comp_assemble_start constrain_in_window

• We officially document this in article 194139

Hope this helps,

Regards,
