Call out the Creo Unit system as parameter values and keep them up-to-date
28. April 2023 | Tips & Tricks
Current situation:
There is no way to call out parameter values containing the current used units in annotations like notes, symbols, tables, … You may provide these parameters manually, but they will not reflect a change in the unit system.
Solution:
Let SMARTUpdate check for the current used unit system and create and update parameter values containing the enclosed units automatically.
Workflow:
-
- Create a ‘Unit’ check in SMARTUpdate.
- Create ‘Parameter’ checks in SMARTUpdate for every unit entry.
-
- Access the respective value through the ‘Unit’ check ID and its internal options. You may even use the unit system type (MLT/FLT) as a condition for the parameters to be created.
- Run SMARTUpdate.
- Not existing parameters will be created with the current unit values.
- After a change of the unit system, or a single unit, SMARTUpdate will update the parameter values accordingly
- You may use these parameters in any annotation as a regular Creo parameter
