Hello, I use Distribute batch utility (Creo 3) for creating pdfs from drawings. But I have problem. The parts or assemblies that I have drawings from, are depended on top assembly. Some features or component placements in subassemblies are depended on top assembly. When I use batch utility it loads only the part or assembly for the drawing. The drawing has then some missing components, because the top assembly is not loaded . When I create pdfs manually I open the top assembly and then the drawings... Is there a way how to automate this using the batch utility?
The next problem is with mass calculation. I use relation in every model (prt_mass = mp_mass("")) and this parameter I use in tables and repeat region on drawings. Everything is ok but one, only this one (it is washer from family table of washers) need to regenerate every time I open the drawing (I don't know why). It is same with all the drawings where this washer is. It doesn't update If I regenerate the model from the model environment but only from the draving environment (review/regenerate active model) so this is next problem for using batch utility.
Michal.
