Close all files
Close all files
(OP)
I have been using Wildfire for only a couple of days. Is there a way to close all files at once instead of having to close them one at a time?

Pro/E needs to jump in like everyone else and implement more standard windows functions... like being able to alt-tab between files, among other things.
I'm giving telecom guy a star for his tip.

I think reluctance to adapt to Windows (lowest common denominator?) interfacing and conventions might be a good thing.
Don't forget to flush closed objects from session.

I think any windows-based software ought to utilize the basic commands such as file-save (ctrl-s), open, etc... I don't think its adapting to windows so much as making it easier on your users who use other windows programs who share much of the same interface. I hardly thinkg Windows is the "lowest common denominator" by any means. If it wasn't for windows, we'd all still be typing in DOS codes.

So, I know the behavior you are talking about but I can't seem to make my system do that right now. It just keeps shrinking the icons instead of consolidating them under one icon. There may be a windows setting somewhere that controls this. I'll keep my eye out for another solution.
Good luck,

Add a close window button (Customize Screen, Commands, Window) to a toolbar. Clicks are buffered so just click the snot out of it. If you had something open (large assy) that you don't want to re-load, Open, In Session. Flush objects from session.
Single key mapkey. Same as above applies.
Either way is, I believe, faster than anything I've seen so far.
(Wonder if a J-Link close_all_windows function is possible?
