    Model Tree Items

    I was starting to push the boss for a jump from WF3 to WF5. Then I saw the CoCreate webinar. I'm way ready to go there. Just work and stop answering questions!! Ohhhh yeahhh.

    Model Tree Items

    I'm working the boss pretty hard to make the jump from WF3 to WF5. I'm still a fairly new user with ProE. The tidbits I'm finding appear to make the latest release more user friendly. I am fairly certain that I'll the move from docked/locked menu items that make me tired from looking and...

    Model Tree Items

    Thanks guys. I'm not ignoring you, I'm in the middle of something and trying to absorb what you're feeding me (that sounded bad - sorry) This is good stuff and I'm taking notes so I perform functions correctly and build GOOD habits. Here's a simple question about the forum. I check MILITARY...

    Model Tree Items

    dgallup - Sometimes a little insight into the thought process that drives programs makes me SOOO much more tolerant of these "shortcomings". I'll back away from my attitude. IMHO, we have the wrong program where I work. ProE is certainly a very serious design tool, but our design work isn't...

    Sweep Analysis?

    What you stated is correct. I want to know the full length of the sketch (trajectory). Using the Analysis LENGTH command and passing the cursor over the sketch sections, the sections don't highlight. The curves and straight sections are not selectable. I tried the same analysis using the swept...

    Model Tree Items

    The setting is the file name. Ahhh, yes it is. And now life is better - I thank you. As I'm shown the way to work with the details, the big stuff is more easily overcome. I'm really trying to bury the sarcasm but I'm afraid it will surface from time to time. The help you guys offer is certainly...

    Sweep Analysis?

    I created a new part. It's a swept protrusion having the trajectory created from two lines and two arcs on a single plane. Now I'd like to know the actual length of the trajectory from end to end. I don't find an analysis tool that recognizes the lines and arcs. We don't have the piping or cable...

    Model Tree Items

    Thanks for the answers. There is a "Save Settings File" below the Settings button. And I did save the file, but the system doesn't seem to pick up the saved file automatically. If I have to go tell proe to use the file I saved, I may as well just reset the settings each time. Another ProE...

    Model Tree Items

    Newbie here. Frustrated WF3 user - coming from Solidworks. Settings/ Tree Filters/ Display shows several default items checked. I want to include three additional, but I have to re-check the boxes for each model. How do I make the system know that I ALWAYS want to include display these items in...
