Hello all,

I'd like to set up my Creo session to have show erase preview so that I have to select things I want to keep.

Is it not working the way I think it should or is it not working for anyone?

Thanks,

Rob

It turns out that the config option needed to be "Show_Preview_Default remove" for what I wanted.

The thing I seem have missed was changing the current_session.pro at same time I changed the config.pro.

I seem to recall this being trouble previously. I still don't know why the current_session.pro file even exists.

Are you talking Show Annotation in Creo drawings? If so, it is a horrible implementation. You have to know, however, that there is a difference in erase and delete of an annotation. I like the legacy version -much- better.

Yes I am. Once you figure out how it works, it's quite similar to the old method. However, I am used to the config setup so I show all the dims (or what ever) and select the ones I want to keep. I thought this was controlled via the "show_preview_default keep" config option. But this is not working the way I hoped.
