    Logo creation.

    To make the end product even cleaner. In the part mode, I put the import data on a layer. I create a styled curve and sketche over the imported data. A person well versed in the style features can do something like this in a few minutes. I will then shut off the import data to see how the...

    Logo creation.

    We use adobe illistrator for this kind of stuff, every day. As the others say, it works seemlessly with one exception. The scale will be about 50 times bigger. We just live with the hicup and scal it back down once I am in Pro/e world. After that create a sketch, give it some depth and make a...

    Wildfire! Hidden part status in asm mode is saved when saving assembly

    I do not know of config setting but the View_Visibility_Unhide All selection will do just that. Or if you hover your mouse over the little icon with the pretty green eye, a caption reads.."No longer hide any features and components". Hope it helps! JOSE FIGUEROA JR.

    OH the joy of composites. There are several methods you can use. Im4cad is correct. surface copy is one method. Another method is to thicken your part in the opposite direction. Copy the part. File save as name it Female. Redefine the protrusion select the surface to thicken (example instead...

    Wildfire -- Any Major Issues?

    Be prepared to loose a few weeks of good productivity out of your Pro/E guys. They will enjoy the frustration of looking for menu picks that "used to be there". To some that is a major issue. To PTC it is just a part of the upgrade. We use SofTech Corp ProductCenter/ProIntegrator...

    Insight on how intent manager works

    I HAVE HAD STUFF LIKE THIS HAPPEN MENY TIMES BEFORE. TOO MUCH FOR THE INTENT MANAGER THE THING TRIES TO ALLIGN, MAKE NORMAL, MAKE PARRALLEL ALL SORTS OF STUFF. IT IS A FRUSTRATING PRO/E-ISM. MY SUGGESTED FIX IS TO HAVE SMALLER SKETCHES. YOU CAN REFERANCE THE PREVIUS SKELATON USING AN ALLIGNED...

    Exporting images to Word

    Now there is 1001. I never heard of HIJAAK before. But the idea is there. Going the other way. Insert-object (or ALT-I-O) will get you files on a Pro/E drawing. JOSE FIGUEROA JR.

    Exporting images to Word

    I do the background like Hora stated. I use a program called "Snag It" to window exactly what I want and export it to the file type I want. http://www.techsmith.com you can get a 30 day trial from them. Besides my use of "Snag it", Hora is right on. JOSE FIGUEROA JR.

    Forcing an angle dimension on near parallel lines?

    A few years back, I did this to one of my engineers on April fools day. It drove him nuts for and hour or so before I let him in on it. I just forgot how do make a truly 'BOGUS' dim. For those who really do want to create bogus dimensions, How do you do it? I forget. Say, I want the dim to...
