Community Tip - Want the oppurtunity to discuss enhancements to PTC products? Join a working group! X
I have some work where essentially the end product is "pretty pictures" of concept ideas that I believe would be easier to complete outside of our normalWindchill 10.1 M10 environment (with Creo2 M030). Back in the Wildfire days, I remember being able to create a new Pro/E start up command that didn't link to Windchill by running ptcsetup. I would think there would be a way to do so in Creo? Anyone have the proceedure? I am notnearly as fluent in the intricacies of Creo set as I was with Wildfire, so steps would begreat.
I do realize that I can go into Server Manager and work "offline", however that still defaults into workspaces. I would prefer to just work unfettered by Windchill; filing to a specific directory on my hard drive, changing and renaming things as I see fit...
thanks in advance...
If you don't want to mess with the Windchill server registry, just activate NO SERVER mode in the Server Manager (as previously suggested by Tom Uminn).
Starting with CP2 M100, if PTC_WF_ROOT is defined the Server Manager data file will be isolated under the folder %PTC_WF_ROOT%\CPA.Home\2.31\ServerMgr (along with Creo Platform Agent files). This makes it easy to have environments with segregated connections to various WC servers (Prod, Test, etc.), as well as the use case you described with no server...
One way to accomplish this is by defining a new startup configuration under <creo2 loadpoint=">\Parametric\bin
