PATRAN UTILITIES

PATRAN UTILITIES

PATRAN UTILITIES

(OP)
I have installed the utilities as per the instructions (refer to this thread: http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=131288&page=1).
However when I exit Patran and come back in again, I find that the Utilities disappear and I have to perform the same procedure again to get them back.
Is there a startup file I need to modify as well to make sure they stay 'added' to the toolbars??

RE: PATRAN UTILITIES

(OP)
I've just found the answer on the net...
So for anyone who's wondering, all you do is you go to;
C:\MSC.Software\MSC.Patran\2004\shareware\msc\unsupported\utilities
(that's if it's 2004 otherwise you path will be slightly different) and copy p3epilog.pcl from there into;
C:\MSC.Software\MSC.Patran\2004

It should then appear every time you start Patran

Too easy...
 

RE: PATRAN UTILITIES

It works! Thanks
