    Creating assembly constraints with keystrokes only

    Thanks for the comment dgallup! Pro/NOTEBOOK sounds like a cool tool to look into. Do you know of any online resources on Pro/NOTEBOOK that would be worth reading? Reactor89

    Creating assembly constraints with keystrokes only

    Sort of. I want to automate an assembly process. My current project has a couple thousand parts that will all be assembled with roughly the same set of constraints for each part (see last post). No matter the size of the assembly, the assembly isn't very technically challenging to build, just...

    Creating assembly constraints with keystrokes only

    Hydromech, Excellent point, but the only reason why I'm even considering automating the process is I believe the assembly (though large) is very simple. In my situation I have a couple thousand parts,all with unique geometry but are all roughly blocks with axises down their center. There is a...

    Creating assembly constraints with keystrokes only

    Hi PeterStock Thanks for your comment. Just to confirm your suspicions. I've already developed a script/macro in visual basic that allows the inserting of parts into an assembly by exploiting Pro/E's Mapkey capabilities and feeding keystrokes directly to Pro/E. I figure this is roughly what...

    Creating assembly constraints with keystrokes only

    Hi all, The question/challenge of the day: Can assembly constraints (part to part) be created using keystrokes only (through the keyboard but no mouse)? If so, how? If there is interest, I can provide more information about the assembly I'm trying to build. Reactor89
