As usual, PTC makes it as difficult as possible to find them. Nice, way to go. A simple search should find it, especially in the "Support" (LOL, as IF) section.
Anyone know where to find that PDF?
Thx.
Edit: I FINALLY found it. Total PITA to find.
I usually go to the Creosite page to get a list of all the options:
I like this page because it lists all the hidden options, some of which I use. I have a mode file I wrote for the text editor I use (Emacs) that color codes config.pro text when I edit it so I can tell what's a hidden versus a normal option, etc. Helps me avoid misspelling the often ridiculously long parameter names.
I used to have an Excel file that listed all the options and had (sometimes) helpful descriptions of the options. Don't recall where I got that. I think it sorted all of them with respect to the area of operation they affected, like "Mechanism", "Manufacturing", and the like. Wish I could remember where I got that thing...or is that what you found?
Found the CSV file source with a bit of selective googling. I must have gotten one of these before and done a lot of reformatting once I imported it into Excel It doesn't have the hidden options, as far as I can tell. I searched for one of the hiddens I have set and didn't find it in the CSV, which means I don't have a source for explanations of the hidden options. You've just gotta know what that parameter does, I guess. Or check in the annals of history for a file from when the option wasn't hidden.
'Sup Ken!
II went there first, and it's nice to have the hidden options, but I wanted the PDF that listed the different choices and what they did. Finally found it. The search tool here sux, I should have been able to find it in 5 minutes, and they really need to list the "hidden" configs here too, and list what they do as well. I finally found it, so...

Ok, now THAT is actually useful, I'd never seen that before. It appears to work, thanks! I can't believe I've never seen that before and nobody I know knew about it.
Grazie mille!
