Saving Files in Stand Alone Creo

Saving Files in Stand Alone Creo

We have recently gone back to a stand alone situation using Creo.  It's been 20 years since I've had to think about search paths, etc.. so I'm a bit rusty.

Question:

Is there a config.pro variable for where files are saved in Creo?  WE have our data in a few different folders and the search path works fine.

When I create a new part, assembly or drawing and hit save, the file is saved in the start up folder.  How can I get it to save to a standard location (the search path locations).

Hope that makes sense.

Hi,

in Creo 2.0 you can select target directory during first Save action. Also when you save a file into wrong directory, you can move it into the right directory using Windows Explorer.

You need to set your Working Directory to where you to store your files.

By default, the working directory is your start in directory, but that can be set.

Set the start-in folder in your desktop icon to the standard location you want to use.

That's the easiest solution right there.
