Question

User install of Creo 8 cannot see mapkey icons

Hello PTC Community,

 

We just installed Creo 8 on a new user's machine.

 

The shortcut "Start In" directory was set up to the correct location (I think).

 

The config.pro, config.win and creo_parametric_customization.ui files are in the "Start In" directory.

 

Mapkey icons show up fine on my machine, but they do not show up on the new user's machine at all.

 

Besides, checking the path of the Start In directory, is there anything else which would cause this?

 

 

This is all deja-vu because I have had this issue before, but can't recall how it was solved.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Jonathan

Hi,

 

1.] in Creo 8.0 I do not use config.win

 

2.] to force Creo to read creo_parametric_customization.ui file from "Start In" directory, you have to put following option into config.pro

LOAD_UI_CUSTOMIZATION_RUN_DIR yes

If this option is not set then Creo reads creo_parametric_customization.ui file from %PTC_WF_ROOT%\.Settings or %AppData%\PTC\ProENGINEER\Wildfire\.wf\.Settings directory.
