    Hello, I'm an infrequent user of SW. (Mostly use Pro E) We have SW 2004 SP01. I need to revise an assembly dwg showing the CG. I obtained the CG using Mass Properties in the assembly, but do not know how to transtlate it to appear on the dwg. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank You...

    Hidden lines not correct linetype in .plt file

    Hello, I made a model of a shaft with a hole drilled through on WF 1.0. When I made a print directly from the Pro-E drawing, the hidden lines show correctly. However, I must make a .plt file of every Pro-E dwg in order to publish it for our manufacturing shop. Please let me know how to...

    Hello, I'm currently using ProE Wildfire. I've just completed a large assembly. I would like to covert it so that it can be used by our vendor which uses SolidEdge software. Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Thank You, Matt

    Drawing views disappear when I make a change to config.pro

    I'm using Wildfire to create a drawing. I had to change "tol_display" to yes and "tol_mode" to nominal. When I go back into the drawing the views go away and only the centerlines are visible. I did a regenerate and update views and they are not reappearing. Thanks in advance, Matt

    Rotate Text in Sketch

    I'm using SW 2004. I'm putting stamped part numbers on my parts. I've successfully created the text as a cut. How can I rotate the text in the sketch? When I right click on the text and use the rotate button all the text slants. It will not rotate the whole line of text. Thanks, Matt

    Section Arrows in a Dwg.

    All, I'm new at SW. I've placed my first view and I want to create a full section view, but I can't place my section line directly on the centerline of my initial view. I must place the section line then dimension it from an edge. Is there a quick way to place the section line right on a...

    Mass Properties for an assembly

    I'm a new user of Pro-E 2000i2. Every time I open my assembly it goes through and calculates the mass properties of every part in the assembly. This takes awhile for the assembly to come up. Is there a toggle I can use to switch this function off? Thanks, Matt
