Cabling Point Visibility

[RyanWilson]

​​​​​Cabling Location points are hard to see (See Location Points.png). The Edit Definition look of location points were updated with Creo 7 and that looks really good (See Creo 7 Location Points.png). This request is to extend the location point visibility function to make the default points more visible as well and make this the same for all location points.  Possibly make edit vs the default points highlight in a different manner for distinction.

Just FYI - I believe there are a few config.pro settings that can help here. Have you tried editing any of these yet? 

Settings for Location Points:

• cable_location_override_color - Override the system color of cable locations. Enter RGB values between 0 and 255 separated by space.
• network_location_override_color - Override the system color of network locations. Enter RGB values between 0 and 255 separated by space.

Similarly, to adjust the color of the centerlines themselves:

• cable_segment_override_color - Override the system color of cable segments that do not have a color map. Enter RGB values between 0 and 255 separated by space.
• network_segment_override_color - Override the system color of network segments. Enter RGB values between 0 and 255 separated by space.

Hope this helps!

Sully,

thanks for the comments, we are aware of the config.pro settings but the issue is with the visibility of the point and the size of the points being very small and hard to see.  If you review the snapshots provided

What is being referred to is the current enhancement for Creo 7.x showing the larger size point but this is only in the edit definition of the location points.  I would like to see the size be larger for all displayed points of the cable for visibility.  Color could be used to differentiate between the edit definition and non edit modes or a slightly smaller size versus larger size.

We are having the same issue in 7.0.6.0.  Color does not have any effect on size.  Strangely enough the locs are more visible on my system than others, even after having them run using my config and syscol files.  Cannot find any other options to set that affect the size, unless it boils down to a screen resolution setting.

Has there been any improvement or resolution of this issue?
