Jan 30, 2009 03:49 PMDoes anyone happen to know of a good viewer for ProE files for someone who does not have Pro?
Thanks in advance.

It's nice because you can show/hide components, make cross sections and measure. It saves your exploded views, too.

4-Participant Jan 30, 2009 04:43 PMI think you can still get a free version on the eDrawings publisher. It
watermarks the file as being published with the free version, but
functionally it's the same.

Jan 30, 2009 04:45 PMThe eDrawings publisher for Pro/E has a free version that installs on your machine but won't allow the person viewing the file to make measurements or sections of the published parts or assemblies.

Jan 30, 2009 06:28 PMYou are correct .. So I tried it with eDrawings 2009 SP2 (We only have SW
2008 so I believe this is the free viewer.) and I was able to open a Pro/E
file. I suspect maybe you have to have some version of SW installed too.
I do know that trying to open an assembly you must have all the parts in one
folder and the instance accelerator files for the family table parts.
