*.tso files

(OP)
Hello,

I was able to get rid of these *.tso files before with the help from the forums.

I am using GM toolkit and whenever I go to "save options" and remove the check mark from "save true shape data", it keeps on coming back when I restart UG.

There must be a config file somewhere in the toolkit that I have to change.  Anybody know where and what it is?

TIA!

I just noticed that even if I remove the check mark for the "save true shape data" and hit "apply", it keeps coming back.

Try going to...

File -> Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Assemblies -> Site Standards -> True Shape(tab)

...and toggle OFF the 'Generate Component Shape Representation on Save' option.

RE: *.tso files

in the toolkit a variable is controling this behaviour:
UGII_FORCE_TRUESHAPE_SAVE=1
ask your admin to disable it in the batch scripts.

Hello John,

I went to the
File -> Utilities -> Customer Defaults -> Assemblies -> Site Standards -> True Shape(tab)
 and even though it says its unlocked, everything is grayed out.  Site and Group are read only and also grayed out.

Hello Uwam2ie,

Do you know which file to edit?  I have admin privilege on my machine.

RE: *.tso files

That indicates that someone (probably the GM Toolkit itself) has locked that item at a higher level (there are two 'levels' above 'User', and those are 'Group' and 'Site', and they can lock virtually any item in levels below them).
