restrict the use of the model

[davisdony]

I have to sent a proe model to one of my client



Is there any option in parameters so that I can restrict the use of the model



Like see only,cannot modify add new features only.



I have seen some options in parameters.



Access, Designate, Restrict -- What for all these are used



any one is having a video, which explains the requirements of this with an
example



can any one tell me what this link is talking about



http://www.proengineertips.com/part-design/tips-restricted -parameters-in-pro-engineer.html





I am sorry if i u feel that i am going all over



It is because i am a little eager to know that area of proe

as far as I remmember right there is something new implemented in WF 4.0 to protect "know-how" included in model while giving it to buisness partner. I suppose it could be simple password protection, but I am not aware of any further details

Taking WF 2.0 and WF 3.0 as a base, You have several ways to accomplish this task:

-neutral format

-Save as > Shrikwrap - Merged Solids

*Shared Data - merge, copy geom and I suppose Inheritance feature

I am also using the same as on now



It would have been wounderfull if they can see the features and cannot edit it



and one more thing



What is
Access, Designate, Restrict in parameters



can any one tell me which, why, when, where, what and how



IF it is with an example then it will be wounderfull

I once used the feature "READ ONLY". But that was just a feature after one
could not mess up with the model. The drawback is that if the other person
knows about it, he/she can remove the feature. But only if he/she knows
about it.

Might be cool to put a password in there. Is that what you guys are suggesting to lock down the features from accidental or costumer modifications?

Ya Bart,



That is exactly i want so that the cusomer can see how the constrection has been done but cannot change model try features.



If he want he can add any. but not tampering with the existing
