how can pro-e remember different path? i am working with pro-e since a couple of weeks and every time i am opening a big assembly file i need to show pro-e where are the different directories and parts. i already set the path-directories in the config.pro but it does not work. thanks a lot for your help!
 
Set the working directory using properties (you will ses this with right mouse your proe short cut or bat file).



Steps:

1. Right click your mouse on short cut.

2. open properties.

3. click on program

4 . set directory as you with in working.
 
You may also want to try seting the search_path_file option in the config.pro. Then create the search.pro file to look something like:



search_path D:\your\path\name1

search_path D:\your\path\name2

search_path C:\your\path\name3



etc, etc...
 
I don't blieve you need the leading search_path if you are creating a search.pro file, just:



<drive>:\full_path1

<drive>:\full_path2



etc.
