Mapkey to open drawing with the name of the current prt or asm

[RobertH]

This topic is related to this one but the moderator advised me to open a new topic so here it is.

I know there are several examples (like the one in the linked topic above) and had one working in the past but we updated to Creo 11 and now this "open drawing with the name of the open part or asm" mapkey doesn't work anymore and can't get it to work.

I'm aware of the case that the mapkeys are not embedded anymore in the config.pro. I have some mapkeys that are working or are working again so how the new mapkeys work I know..

So who has a working mapkey or can help me with this?

Hi,

couple of days ago I tested my AutoIT script with Creo 11.0.2.0 successfully. I attached it to this reply.

Note 1: The script is launched by mapkey dd. Its definition must contain proper path to exe file.

Note 2: In your environment my exe file can be blocked by, for example, an antivirus program.

As I don't like to download and execute .exe files, I've found another mapkey and adjusted it in order to let it work
