Parameter Changes - Config

This document outlines parameter modifications to Creo's general configuration file for ME 170. Key changes include setting the drawing setup file, tolerance standard, model tree configuration file, and other defaults to support the course. The configuration ensures sketches automatically start in 2D view and certain datum features are visible while modeling.

Outline of Parameter Modifications

PARAMETER NEW VALUE DEFAULT VALUE


drawing_setup_file 170dwgconfig.dtl
This parameter points Creo to a drawing setup file. The drawing setup file contains parameters that
specify line widths, arrow sizes, and tolerance options.
tolerance_standard iso ansi
Defines the default tolerance standard.
tolerance_class medium
Defines the default tolerance class for ISO dimensioning.
tol_display no no
Controls the default display of tolerances in the modeling environment. Tolerance display in drawings
is controlled by the drawing setup file.
orientation isometric trimetric
Defines the orientation to be used for a part's "standard orientation."
default_dec_places 2 2
Defines the default number of decimal places for new dimensions.
mdl_tree_cfg_file 170modeltree.cfg
This parameter points Creo to a model tree configuration file. The 170modeltree.cfg file specifies a
model tree where all model features are visible in the tree.
sketcher_starts_in_2d yes no
Throughout the semester, we have had to press "Sketch View" to orient the sketcher to the proper 2D
sketching plane. The sketcher will automatically enter "Sketch View" with this parameter set.
disp_regen_success_msg yes no
Instructs Creo to display a "regeneration successful" message in the message log on each successful
regeneration.
display_point_tags yes no
Sets the default display of datum point tags.
display_plane_tags yes no
Sets the default display of datum plane tags.
display_axis_tags yes no
Sets the default display of axis tags.
comp_assemble_start constrain_in_window
Sets the initial assembly behavior when assembling a new component. This parameter value instructs
Creo to open a new, smaller window for viewing the component while it is being assembled.
spin_with_part_entities yes
Instructs Creo to display datum features while a part is spun. Enabling this parameter requires more
visual processing than the default option.
spin_with_silhouettes yes no
Instructs Creo to display silhouette part outlines while spinning a part. Enabling this parameter
requires more visual processing than the default option.
