[govindswaroopm]

hey guys,


I am some basic ideas about analysis, and i was able to do small structural analysis when pro mechanica was working in integrated mode with proe. Since few weeks i dont know what happened pro mechanica is opening in a standalone mode. and i am blank with this new version and i dont know where to start . can anybody help me in this.


Thanks......

You access integrated mode through Pro/E. It sounds like you have been
clicking on your Pro/MECHANICA shortcut directly to get into standalone
mode. Just open a model in Pro/E and then click Applications >
Mechanica

RTFM??



From mechanica help:



Config.pro option

SIMULATION_FEM_MODE

Determines the initial state of the FEM Mode check box on the Model Type
dialog box. The default is "prompt," indicating that the Model
Type dialog appears when you enter Mechanica with a new or unsaved model
and the check box is unchecked.

If you select "No," the software assumes you always
want to work in native mode, and the check box is unchecked. If you select
"Yes," the software assumes you always want to work in FEM mode, and the check
box is checked. In either case, if the SIMULATION_PRODUCT config.pro option is
set to a specific product, the software bypasses the Model
Type dialog box altogether when you enter Mechanica with a new or unsaved
model.
