Mapkeys still reference old menu manager?

[AJ_TROGLIO]

We're on Creo 4 M100 and moving to Creo 8 as part of a Windchill upgrade.  We're going thru the corporate config.pro in the loadpoint verifying options and mapkeys when this came about;

!--- TURN DATUMS OFF ---
mapkey df #environment;#disp dtmpln;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;
!--- TURN DATUMS ON ---
mapkey dn #environment;#disp dtmpln;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;
!--- TURN AXES OFF ---
mapkey af #environment;#disp axes;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;

!--- TURN AXES ON ---
mapkey an #environment;#disp axes;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;

These are some very old entries which reference the old Pro/E menu manager.  Yet, for some reason, they still work.  Is the menu manager still running in the background?

Yes it is.

Here is a listing of ALL config.pro settings for Creo 8.

I use it for next sheet / previous sheet on drawings but I think i remade the mapkey so its like a mix of old/new...LOL...I love the done/done commands

mapkey < @MAPKEY_LABELPrev Sht;\
mapkey(continued) @MAPKEY_NAMEGo to the previous drawing sheet (d);%~done; %~done; #Sheets;\
mapkey(continued) #Previous;
mapkey > @MAPKEY_LABELNext Sht;\
mapkey(continued) @MAPKEY_NAMEGo to the next drawing sheet (d);%~done; #Sheets; #Next;

I used to use it for a modify command that didn't work like it did in the old menu manager, but I have since lost that one.

Hi,

you are right ... old Pro/ENGINEER code is still alive and you can launch it using old mapkeys.
