Finding relation in large assembly

[dkr981]

Hi all,


We are using 1500 files per assembly and we are facing problem in identifying the external references, as it causes problem with Pro/Intralink. When we save the main assembly it is saving also lot of sub assemblies and components even when we don't modify any thing in those files. I used global reference viewer and also Relation report in Intralink, but its not showing the files which are being saved while saving the main assembly.


Can any one help me to solve this issue,


Thanks in advance.

What value has your config.pro option save_objects?

Hi DonChunior,


Thank you for your reply.


In our company config.pro, we have the following:


save_display - Yes


save_drawing_picture_file - embed


save_instance_accelerator - none*


save_model_display - shading_low


Scope_invalid_refs - copy*


As you have stated there is no option called - save_objects.

It is a valid option, but since you don't have it set explicitly in your file it's taking the default value, which is changed_and_specified.

What is that option save_objects dealing with?How will that option serve our purpose? The assemblies are used by 50 other engineers. Should the config.pro to be changed in all the workstations.


We are not able to duplicate or proceed further because of this problem.

Here you can find descriptions of the config.pro options: [url]http://www.ptc.com/appserver/wcms/standards/fileothumbredire ct.jsp?im_dbkey=82887&icg_dbkey=522 [/url]


Don't forget to have a look into your Pro/E help center - maybe there's a more detailed description of the option save_objects!
