Glyphs
Glyphs
(OP)
Does anyone know where I can get a FULL listing of the glyphs used in the assembly and model tree. A partial listing is in the Fundamentals Help topic book, but many assembly ones are missing.
This simple thing is what hurts PTC. How can someone learn the system if the icons/glyphs are not explained. I don't want something this simple to be ONLY in some training manual, it should be in the Help section. People tend to forget what one means after a few years.

RE: Glyphs
Many menu items have no icons at all.
Their UI customization Tools > Customize differs only slightly from release 2001.
You can create your own icons in Pro/E but they are 20 x 20 pixels in size.
There is no icon for Blend but you can copy the icon from the display in the Model Tree and then open in an image editor and select all copy and paste the icon onto a Mapkey.
What is the point of icons if you have to use object action Pick /Select to see the icon become available to click.
Maybe your question should be
"How can someone learn the system if the icons/glyphs don't exist."
One Thing I'd suggest is to add additional columns in your model tree for assembly type icons. I use Feature Type and Subtype to easily see whether a feature is a solid or surface because For many Wildfirized Tools that allow Surface or Solid to be chosen unlike SolidWorks which has two icons for each command Extrude, Revolve, Sweep, Loft etc.
