configuration file location

(OP)
I am currently using pro to design sheetmetal parts.  I am in need of information as to where (what directories) I am supposed to place the various config files.  Mainly the bend table files.  Any help would be appreciated.

RE: configuration file location

Look in the options for the config.pro file settings and see if there is a *_dir setting for bend table data. Then you can set the value in the config.pro to any directory you choose.

RE: configuration file location

Bend table data is in the directory found by the pro_sheet_met_dir setting in your config.pro file.

If there is no pro_sheet_met_dir setting, then the supplied bend tables are used.

Use the full path name to avoid problems.
