Speaking of terminology, these are the guys who coined "unhide"
and decided to change "redefine" to "edit definition" in 60% of the gui.
Also changed "reroute" to "edit references" but just in some contexts...no all..
so i guess we are lucky that we aren't dealing with "un-undelete" and "unshow" and "un-select" of "undeselect"
wow
Wait until you folks go to edit your config.pro in Creo Parametric. They've merged all config files into one. You cannot segregate them inside of ProE. On the plus side, I do like the new interface. I will have to rebuild a lot of mapkeys, unfortunately.

... and we found out that to hide a curve feature from 1 view, you select it and erase. I think my main complaint with PTC is that their focus is on new customers, not legacy users.Wait until you folks go to edit your config.pro in Creo Parametric.

I think PTC's focus is now ease of use, but they have a lot of baggage left that is simply not easy for anyone to understand, veteran and new user alike.
My understanding is that in Creo, there is a config.pro option that will always delete dimensions, even when you Erase them. This way they always show up when you select "Show". In the older versions of Pro/E, the button was called "Show/Hide" which was much easier to use and understand that the current setup.
Seems PTC goes backwards sometimes in making their software easy to use. We are enjoying Creo much more than Pro/E but there is still plenty of areas were it's just not easy to use. Not to mention all the legacy crap code from 2001 still showing up.
