Creo2 M070 Reverts to Legacy Mode
Creo2 M070 Reverts to Legacy Mode
(OP)
Hi.
I have a question about Creo2. I have many files that were created back in W4/W5, and all of them come into Creo2 and behave according to the new Creo GUI...No need to revert to Legacy mode as was used in Wildfire. But I have one file that has a Revolve feature w/ a relation, that for some reason when I edit it in Creo2, launches the old Legacy Mode GUI (which I assumed by now, was no longer required, or an option). I imagine there is something in the feature description that is still retaining some old info that Creo2 deems incompatible with the new interface. Does anyone have an idea as to what is happening here?
Thanks! :)

The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which depends on a feature that isn't included in this version of Windows.

That IS strange that the GUI would pop-up since all the tools are still basically the same. Maybe it is some old code that never got updated.
At any rate, I think I found at least part of the reason Legacy was popping up...I had a Revolve feature that was poorly dimensioned in the original W5 file. Why it regened at all on opening the file is beyond me. But it had a line segment that was too small and once Sketcher was reopened in W5, it failed to regen then after. So I had to redo the Revolve in W5 (since I want to keep these files compatible with the older version). Once I did that, the Legacy GUI never popped back up when in Creo, when I opened the file there and went into Sketcher.

The WF4 or 5 revolve with relation may have been created while the new_relation_ui was set to NO. Try removing the equation for the revolve and save it and see if you can edit with the CreO 2 ui.

Is that an entry in the config file?
Do you mean delete the relation so that the dimensions can be handled directly in Sketcher without the relation getting in the way?
