explode view WF3.0

[design-engine]

that pisses me off in WF3 where when completing a explode state in the view manager.... you have to save the explode state now. As if I am going to spend ten minutes creating the perfect explode and I would not want to save it.

Maybe there is a setting in the config that turns this to auto save?

griping a little.

When I am working on explode states and switch to the drawing, 75% of the time I forget to save the state. Very annoying!

Very counter-intuitive, if you ask me...

Hey Bart thanks for all the help, I think what I have learned will help improve my efficiency. I added you on myspace, my handle is Elyoc Productions. www.myspace.com/ngms

Agreed.


Another gripe I have is the mapkeys that I created for measuring plane to plane and axis to axis no longer work. I tried re-creating them, but they only work about 20% of the time. To top this off, now you have to select different filters twice if you want to measure from a plane to an axis.

If you use Redefine Explode State it will Autosave and after you are done you wont see the + symbol indicating changes were made and an update of the settings is required.

Of course this brings in the old Menu Interface which PTC refuses to remove.
I'm installing Solid Works 2008 right now so I'm not going to launch Pro/E but I believe I posted something on View Manager Usage or I'll check my files and post how to use each method.
