Since Creo 5, I cant automate the export funtion anymore with a mapkey because I always want to export only solid models without surfaces. But in Creo 5, when exporting to STEP, you cant automatically have surfaces de-selected (it only works in one session). Does anyone have a proper mapkey compatible with Creo5 that tackles this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Set your custom export settings for Step in Data Exchange window. This options are later set for every export.

I've found that the only way I can have my settings default to those I save in the profile is to set, in my config.pro, one of the (apparently new in Creo 4?) options that specifies the file name, such as
export_profiles_step <full path and file name of option file>
Otherwise, it seems the settings I make are only for the current session. Unless there is some other config option I need to make to allow my settings to be persistent?
Hey,
I think you should try the BIMDeX plugins for exporting the Creo. I found it very efficient.
