Tree Picking
Tree Picking
(OP)
OK, I want to ask if this is possible.
In a CATPart.
1. Is there are way to "Define in Work Object" w/o right mouse button. ie double click? Is there something in the options?
2. Is there a way to change the names of geo.sets and bodies w/o right mouse button. i.e. slow double click similar to changing name in windows.
If you can't, then damnit, these should be in an update.

Let us know how it goes. I would be interested to know how it works out.

RE: Tree Picking
As for the properties menu, I used to use alt+enter until I found a faster way. My mouse has the middle wheel, and you can click it left or right (presumably to scroll left and right) but since I don't use that much, I set the "right scroll" to be "alt + enter). Now I can select an object and bring up its properties in one smooth motion.
I still would like a box prompt for a name though, when you insert a new geo set or part body.
RE: Tree Picking
The fact that you can even set a hot key is just what I was talking about earlier. I have a greyed out box when I attempt to hot key it.
As for the box prompt on naming geo sets and part bodies - there is a prompt for a name every single time a geo set is inserted. I did not find any options to turn it on/off, but it has always been with me, since day one. PartBody is a different story...

RE: Tree Picking
Yes, I did get the hot key to work, after much trouble. It was also greyed out when I initially tried, and either thru this forum or COE I was told to put the Define in work object command to one of my toolbars, then it let me make it a hotkey. I have it set at Alt+d now, and it seems to work for a while but then the key combination just quits working.
I haven't tried this on our most recent release though, this was probably R15 or the early service packs of R16.
RE: Tree Picking
I believe this is what you are looking for.
As for your hotkeys, setup catia menus and hotkeys, then make a backup of your CATSettings directory.
They (settings) tend to corrupt.
