Changing the appearance.dmt file in Creo 8.

[LH_9153250]

Hi,

I'm trying to update the selection of colors that appear in "My Appearances", and nothing I've done so far seems to work. I've added in the line "pro_colormap_path" into the config and set its path to the folder containing the appearance.dmt file I wish to use, saved config and restarted Creo but this didn't work.

I've changed the "global_appearance_file" path to the folder containing the appearance.dmt file, didn't work.

I've replaced the appearance.dmt file in the programs common files\graphic-library\appearances folder in case it was pulling from here, didn't work.

I have the file named exactly "appearance.dmt" as I read this could be an issue but still nothing.

If anyone has anything else that I could try, please let me know.

Hi,

I have no problem in Creo Parametric 8.0.4.0.

My config.pro contains ... pro_colormap_path E:\users\creo8_parametric\myappearance

E:\users\creo8_parametric\myappearance contains 2 uploaded files (appearance.dmt, textura_mh.png).

Inside appearance.dmt there is path color_map E:\users\creo8_parametric\myappearance\textura_mh.png (I entered the path manually).

User color which uses textura_mh.png  is named mh01.
