Hi, I have a conveyor that is programed to change size and length with some parameters in a format and I want to do a save a copy to have multiple copy of this conveyor without the same name but when I click Allow Replacements after I renamed the parts in the save a copy window, Pro-e copy only...

I have designed a parametric conveyor and I have some slots to bolt the troughing idlers and I installed some washers, lock nuts and bolts in the model. But when I change the length of the conveyor and I do a regen, pro-e gave me a failure diagnostic because of the references of the holes. I...

I want to have my bom on the first page of my drawing and the 3d view with balloons on the page 2. I can put the bom, the view and the ballons on the same page and then, make a move item to sheet and move the view with the balloons on another page but I can't add balloons on the view without...

Is there a way to program pro-e so he can change the color of a part when a parameter changes? like, IF MATERIAL == RUBBER COLOR == BLACK ELSE IF MATERIAL == STEEL COLOR == GREY ENDIF ENDIF Thanks

I'm not sure if this is gonna work for what I want to do. I have a pattern of prt0001 and a pattern of prt0002 and I want that when the pattern of prt0001 is a even number that the pattern of prt0002 is equal to the pattern of prt0001 divided by 2 but when the pattern of prt0001 is a odd...

I'm trying to program a line where I have a number and when this number is a even or odd number, the program changes. I'm looking for the fonction that will allow the program to change the pattern if x=2, 4, 6, 8, 10..... and will allow to change it again if x=1, 3, 5, 7, 9...... Like, I have...

Hi, Is there a way to put notes in the instance window when you open a part that as a family table in it? All my instances name are the part number of the bolt, washer or nut but when the instance table open, all I can see is the name of the instance and in this case it's a bunch of numbers...

Well seems they are not Solid...Thank you, And John I've just recently started to experement with this, excluding all small components ( is done, well we don't have many of them in the assembly ), simplify the complicated parts (Our assemblies are pretty simple theres just lots of em), The...

I did that but some of the quilts still stay...As for the solids, I don't know I always thought they where solid. I make my shrinkwraps from model so they update. I presume they are solide geometrie but I don't know how to tell for sure. Thanks

Well I have a problem, I was working with a huge assembly, our total layout of one of our projects actually. And it was way too heavy my small computer would want nothing to do with it. So I thought about shrinkwraping some components. I had experience with shrinkwraping in the past so I gave it...

Does anyone know if it's possible to rename the flat state of a sheetmetal part when you save a copy of the fully formed part with a new name ? The problem is that I save a copy of an assembly with is drawing (rename_drawings_with_object) but when I try to open the copied drawing there is an...

Yes, pro-e will copy theses parts or assemblies in my working directory because they came from another directory but they are in the model so he copy everything that is in the model. I want to save and rename the top assembly and all the subassemblies and parts that are in my working directory...

The part XX1 will never change of name because theses are standard parts or assemblies and the came from another directory than the working directory. That's why I don't rename theses parts or assemblies and that's also why I would like that pro-e don't copy theses parts or assemlies at all with...

Hora, First of all I should tell you all the story for better understanding. All the parts or assemblies that gave me problems are not in the working directory, they came from another one on the server and are mostly family tables. When I do a save a copy I would like that theses standard...

Hi Hora, The problem is not with resumed components, it's with the program itself. Let's say that I have the following command: ADD PART XX INTERNAL COMPONENT ID 192 END ADD and I add IF CONVEYOR_LENGTH>200 COMP = "XX1.PRT" ENDIF in my relations and then I changed ADD COMPONENT...
