Description

  • How to avoid messages related to misalignment with custom parameter file upon retrieval process of Manufacturing assemblies?
  • Tool Parameters intended to be always used in Manufacturing assemblies can be driven by an xml file where mfg_custom_tool_param_file points to.
  • Refer to Example: User Defined Tool Parameters in Creo Parametric Help Center for more technical details on this capability.
  • Upon retrieval of a Manufacturing Assembly file originally created with a given Tool Parameter xml file:
    1. If mfg_custom_tool_param_file does not exist anymore in config.pro, system gives the message "The custom parameter file config option is not defined.  Click Yes to delete existing definitions or NO to keep them."
  1. If mfg_custom_tool_param_file still exists in config.pro, still pointing to original value, but :
  • with xml file on disk which has been intentionally previously modified
OR
  • In conditions of the current manufacturing file previously modified and save, and leading after in a difference compared to what is still defined in the xml file upon successive retrieval
=> system gives the message "The custom parameter file has definitions that conflict with existing definitions. Click Yes to continue loading or No to keep existing definitions."
 
  • Is there a way to automatically answer No in above situations instead of asking the questions?
