Unused Paramter will not delete

[jlippeth]

I have a Part parameter that will not delete.

History;

I use a UDF to place a steel stamp on the model

The text in the steel stamp extracts PROE_FILE_NAME and other parameters

All works fine no prob there.

But for testing reasons I want to remove all part parameters and relations.

I delete the UDF feature and all parameters and relations

Two Part Parameters remain and will not delete

Any advice?

If it won’t delete then it’s being referenced somewhere. Right click on the parameter and pick ‘Info’, ‘Driven By…’ or ‘Driving’

Those 2 parameters are not going anywhere.

One way or another, ALL parameters can be removed!

If these are used by a PDM system, simply back up the file to disk, disconnect from the PDM system, and then turn on the config.pro option ‘allow_create_pdm_param yes’. Delete away!

More info,

We do not use a PDM system

Looking at the Source, the Parameter belongs to Sketch Text, uhm yea I deleted that feature.

I have restarted Pro just to clear Ram, still can’t get it to delete.

Also this part has no other sketches and or Relations

In fact I tested on a new Part with the same results

I’ll keep digging
