How to change the Creo Language to German(Germany)

[syalagudri]

Hi,

I am using English OS and wated to change the Creo Language to German (Germany).

Using ENV  PRO_LANG = Germany i can see Creo opened in Germnay but only i can see the change in UI or menu to Germany. But if I create new Drawing file it takes values in english only

Ex: Drawing scale i can enter as 0.005 but i should be able to enter as 0,04 if Creo is opened in German Langauge.

How to Set Creo drawing to German Langauge ??

Hi,

in config.pro you have to set drawing_setup_file option to point to appropriate setup file. Search Creo installation directory for *.dtl files.

Hello,

Its pointing to "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 2.0\Common Files\M120\text\prodetail.dtl" which is default file. Do i need to use specific *.dtl file for Germany Language ??

Thanks,

Suresh

Hi,

if you open "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 2.0\Common Files\M120\text\prodetail.dtl" in Notepad you will see that drawing_units option is set to INCH. You can test using "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 2.0\Common Files\M120\text\din.dtl", for example.

Hi,

Creo accepts decimal point, only. You cannot enter 0,04 value. You have tio always enter 0.04 value. You can choose wheter to display 0,04 value or 0.04 value.
