In this case, when creating the accelerator file, Creo Parametric displays a message stating that the accelerator file was created for the nonverified instance. noneDoes not save instance accelerator files. explicitSaves instance accelerator files only when you explicitly save instances. alwaysAlways saves instance accelerator files, regardless of whether you are saving an instance explicitly or through a higher-level object. You can override this configuration option at runtime by clicking File Instance Operations, and clicking another command on the associated INST DBMS menu. *** save_model_display SHADING_HIGH, SHADING_LOD (default), SHADING_LOW, WIREFRAME Sets the amount of graphical data stored in the assembly and part files. By default, the system always stores wireframe data in both parts and assemblies. The only information that the system saves in the assembly .asm file is the display setting of components that are intersected by assembly features. The system also saves the tessellated data for the low, medium, high, and lod options. The display setting at the time the assembly is saved is stored in the part and assembly files. shading_lodSaves all levels of tessellation according to the setting in the View Performance dialog box. wireframeStores wireframe data in both parts and assemblies for a wireframe of the components without shading. shading_highSaves the most detail in a finer tessellation for a shaded version of the components. shading_lowSaves the least detail in a coarser tessellation for a shaded version of the components. *** save_modified_draw_models_only NO, YES (default) Determines whether the system saves the model after you have changed it.

NoteWhen you set the save_scene_with_file configuration option to yes, the save scene with model option in the Scenes dialog box remains selected for the session. Clear this option if you do not want to save the scene with the model. *** save_section_surfaces NO, YES *** save_texture_with_model NO (default), YES yesSaves the texture images applied to the model or to the walls of the room with the model and the scene. You can delete the texture file after saving the model or the scene. noDoes not save the texture images applied to the model or to the walls of the room, when you save the model or the scene. NoteWhen you set the save_texture_with_model configuration option to no, only the name of the texture is saved with the model. In this case, on reloading the model or the scene, the textures are visible with the model only if the texture file exists in the directory set by the texture_search_path configuration option. Setting the save_texture_with_model configuration option to yes causes a significant increase in the file size of the models or scenes in which the textures are saved. Moreover, changes that you make to the independent texture files are not reflected in the respective textures that are saved with the models or scenes. *** save_triangles_flag NO, YES *** save_unchanged_pdm_object AS_COPY, AS_REF (default) Determines how to save an object retrieved from a Pro/PDM database. The object is saved in the current working directory. as_refSaves the object as a reference only, that is, as a pointer to the Pro/PDM database. as_copySaves the unchanged object. *** save_view_states_method PROMPT, DISCARD CHANGES, SAVE CHANGES *** saving_model_thumbnails NO, YES (default) Saves a thumbnail image of the model to the Creo Parametric file. *** scope_invalid_refs PROHIBIT, COPY (default) Determines how the system treats external out of scope references. prohibitSystem aborts all attempts to create external references violating the scope. copyWarning appears. Abort reference creation or declare as an out-of-scope reference. If you declare, system performs a backup of copies to the part and assembly and the backup is referenced. *** search_area_for_comp_interfaces ( -Fs ) *** search_not_retrieved_models NO, YES *** search_path ( -Fs ) Specifies an ordered list of directories in which to search for object or file retrieval. These directories, along with the current (working) directory and any directories in the search.pro file (see the configuration file option search_path_file) make up the Creo Parametric search path. Separator Characters and Search Paths You must enclose in quotation marks any search path with a separator character (space, comma, or semicolon) in a directory name, for example: Windows: search_path "C:\Program Files\proe2001\models" NoteFor Windows NT, omit the last backslash (\) from the path, or enclose the path in quotation marks, or add a trailing space after the backslash. Relative and Absolute Paths The directory path names can be relative or absolute. You can use special characters, such as ".." in Windows, in specifying a relative path name. Relative path names are initially resolved relative to the startup directory. If you subsequently reload the configuration file, the system reevaluates the relative path names relative to the current working directory and appends the new directories (if any) to the search path (the previous path remains in place). It is better, therefore, to specify the full path names always (in other words, from root) so as to avoid problems if you change working directories or use the same configuration file in another startup directory. Using More Than One Path The option can have several path names on a single line, separated by commas, semicolons, or spaces. Whichever delimiter you choose, you must then use consistently. The option can appear any number of times in the configuration file, so it is not necessary to have more than one path name to a line. If objects with the same name are stored in more than one search-path directory, the system retrieves the first one that it finds, regardless of which object is the most recent. Previously Defined Environment Variables Search paths may also include previously defined environment variables. This is done by preceding the variable with $ in the search path definition. For example, the environment variable OBJ_TYPE can be used as follows:search_path /partlib/$OBJ_TYPE/objs *** search_path_file ( -Fs ) Specifies the location of the search.pro file, which contains a list of directory path names. These directories, along with the current working directory, and any directories specified by the configuration option search_path, make up the Creo Parametric search path. In the search.pro file, you specify an individual directory path on each line, starting with the first line in the file. Blank lines and comment lines (which begin with !) are permitted. You can specify either the path for the search.pro file or just the path to the directory containing that file. In the latter case, the system looks for search.pro in that directory. Use the full path rather than a relative one to avoid problems if you change working directories or use the same configuration file in another startup directory. Separator Characters and Search PathsYou must enclose in quotation marks any search path with a separator character (space, comma, or semicolon) in a directory name, for example: Windows: search_path "C:\Program Files\proe2001\models"NoteFor Windows NT, omit the last backslash (\) from the path, or enclose the path in quotation marks, or add a trailing space after the backslash. *** section_color SKETCH_COLOR, DRAWING_COLOR, DEFAULT (default) Specifies the color of sketched sections. defaultColor is yellow.
