2.5.5.2.1. Activating the PARTsolutions interface in Creo Parametric

After installing the PARTsolutions interface for Creo Parametric you can choose between different variants for activating the interface:

  1. The PARTsolutions interface should automatically start with Creo Parametric.

    1. Expand your existing file config.pro (Creo Parametric Installation/.../text/) with the protkdat key. This contains the path to the protk<name>dat file, which is located in the "iface" interface directory.

      Example:

      protkdat $CADENAS\iface\proewildfire\win\protkcreo5_64.dat

      Make sure the file name is correct.

      Adjust the file name according to your Creo Parametric version.

      (For example protkcreo5_64.dat)

    2. Start Creo Parametric.

      -> The PARTsolutions interface menu is now integrated.

  2. The PARTsolutions interface should only be available after manual activation for each start of Creo Parametric.

    1. Open the Tools menu in Creo Parametric.

    2. Select auxiliary applications.

      -> The same-named window shows up.
