Summary


Details

Added the following in ipm.xml to create a TIF as an auxiliary file when saving a Creo drawing.

    <auxiliary_file cad_type="DRW" direction="cadtopdm">

      <pdm_location pdm_type="TIF" named_ref="TIF_Reference"/>

      <file_name pattern="{cad_name,lower}*.tif"/>

      <cadtopdm_control label="Save TIF Files"/>

      <plot

        plotter_name="TIFF" 

        file_name="{cad_name,lower}.tif" 

        sheets="all" 

        create_separate_files="true"

      >

      </plot>

    </auxiliary_file>

Saving a Creo drawing with multiple sheets creates a dataset containing multiple TIF files.


How to Create separate auxiliary Dataset for reach sheet of drawing.

Solution

Existing auxiliary file generation will not be enhanced further. Rather, IPEM provides a user exit "auxilaryFileUserExit" which can be modified by IPEM administrator to meet specific needs. See file "IpemUserExits.txt" file in the IPEM client installation directory for more information.
