drawings in different folders from the model
drawings in different folders from the model
(OP)
Is there a way to store you drw file in a different location from your prt file? Is there a search.pro type configuration for where to look for models that are included in a drawing?
Thanks
Thanks

I currently have a list in the format as follows:
'D:\path1'
'D:\path2'
'\\server1\path1'
'\\server1\path2'
Currently all of the drawings are at \\server1\path1 and the models are at \\server1\path2 and if I open a drawing in Pro/E I get the model not in folder error.
I also tried it with the network location mapped to a network drive as well, so \\server1\path1 mapped to z:\path1 with no luck.
Assemblies using components in the D:\path1 and 2 locations work just fine.

Also, turns out the spaces in the path name were not the issue.

You are either not correctly telling Pro/E where your search.pro file is or you don't have the correct format/data in the search.pro file. I never use a search.pro myself. Just one more level of complexity. I just put search_path statements in the config.pro.
Beware any spaces in paths. You have to enclose them in quotes.
