[bmclees]

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0

custom map keys not working after new creo install. creo_parametric_customization.ui file did not change.

start up load directory the same.

Mapkeys are moved to mapkey.pro file from your config.pro file the first time you run Creo 11.

When you start Creo 11, you get a warning that mapkeys have been moved to mapkey.pro and are NOT loaded from your local config.pro anymore.

If you use any mapkeys that call other mapkeys on the fly: Mapkey toggle scheme no longer works in Creo 11+ - PTC Community

Hi,

maybe following pages help you to understand what is going on. Both pages are related to Creo Parametric 11.0 (without + sign).

Thank you for the information.

In the future when installing new versions of Creo Parametric how do you keep the mapkeys.pro file? Will this be saved or deleted?

Hi,

Q: Will this be saved or deleted?

A: I don't have a definite answer. It's always a good idea to make a backup.
