Pro/E ASM file export to neutral file

[ummareddy]

Hi,


I need to convert Pro/E .prt and .asm files to the .neu formats programmatically with Pro/TOOLKIT.


I used ProIntf3DFileWrite () API like below but it's not exporting the thick cables for the wire harness and it's showing only center lines. I have set the display_thick_cables to yes in config.pro file. I am in WF4 Build m100. I am missing any other settings. Please let us know how to export the thick cables using pro/tool kit.


ProIntf3DFileWrite ((ProSolid)top_level_asm, PRO_INTF_EXPORT_NEUTRAL, outputFile,


asm_config, NULL, NULL,


NULL, NULL);


Thanks,

Does it work, if you manually export the assembly to a neutral file?

Yes, it's works with Interactive Pro/E and it gives the option to select the "Export Cable Surfaces"

If the general functionality is different from the Pro/TOOLKIT functionality, I would recommend, that you open a new case at PTC!


But maybe you first try it again with the latest datecode of Wildfire 4 (is currently M200).

Yes, I created the case with PTC.They are sayingcables export is not supported with Pro/Tool kit in the WF4. They are asking us to create the enhancement request. I am not sure why the missed this in export option with Pro/Toolkit. I tried with mapkey too. ProMacroExecute() API not able to invoke the export dialog.

Enhancement requests are useless!


I've some created up to 10 years ago - they've never ever been reviewed by anybody!
