efx su wf2?

[xLOGANx]

Hello, everyone.

I would have a question to ask the community, not having found other discussions about the forum. a module called efx (expert framework extension); those who have been using pros for some time will know that this is a frightening application: eek: that, among other things, allows to build profiles by being able to count on a database of sections of extremely wide tubes. in practice, just draw a line that identifies the direction of development of the pipe and then go to choose the section of the profile. and the game is done.

my curiosity is the following: does the wf2 of pro/e exist an application like this? Unfortunately I happen to have to draw a structure in aluminum profiles. :frown: basically, I had to draw every single section and extrude it. It's useless to say I lost a lot of time. I think there is a more immediate and faster way. Maybe using some pro/e module.

and then I wonder whether even for piping operations, on the wf2 you act in the same way or there is a much faster way of drawing ducts and more.

thanks to all:finger:

Good morning, logan.

efx also existed for wf2 only that it was not integrated into the pro/e installation dvd but supplied separately, clearly also with separate license.
the compatible version for the wf2 if not erro was efx 4.0, now we are at 7.0.

for piping there is also the advanced module called pcx (piping & cabling extension), with two modes, not driven by specific or guided and you can fly your pipes or wires through another module called rsd, which manages the p&id hvac 2d schematics for the part of pipes and propagates information in a monodirectional manner to the drafting of the 3d, is one of the modules after the most advanced axiemes.

here you do not need a separate CD but also this has a separate license, not included in the base.

if you need any other information or brochure do not hesitate to contact me.

greetings

Hello, everyone!

I take advantage of it to greet ozzy and ask you if instead in the wf4 (f000) is already present efx and it is only enabled (as it happens on creo) or also there it serves auxiliary cd as on wf2.

Thank you.

Thank you.

no in wf4 was not yet present within the installation, you must download or send a cd aside and then abiltarlo with the option : efx_enabled on yes.

Excuse me if I take this discussion.
about a year ago they installed me creo2 and after a few months I had to change pcs.
I did the installation again and everything works. only that the message "impossible to start efx" appears at the start.
As far as I'm concerned, I don't use this form, but I'm afraid I always have this message to close, only I don't know where to go to make it disappear.
I wanted to know how to remove the message or, perhaps better, how to reactivate the efx module.
Thank you.

of course in your config.pro option efx_enabled yes is there, right?!?

Sorry, I found a solution.
in the config.pro file you must set to "no" the entry "afx_enabled"
in this way the error message disappears.
But I would like to know when this module was installed and where: the technician who had made the first installation used the original dvd.

is a flag that puts itself at the beginning of the installation of creo, before there was a separate dvd now is "embedded" in the dvd of creo.
In fact, for those who do not know it is now no longer called efx but afx (advanced framework extension).

thanks for the explanation.
therefore means that in the dvd is present this afx.
But now I can install it? I mean: I create it using it, if I repeat the installation procedure and activate the afx flag is added the form or risk of damaging the installation of creo?

No no go quiet! It's pretty simple. .
throw a ptcsetup.bat and reconfirm the installation by bringing you into the aphx in "other license configurations"

It works.
Now I have to find out if I need it.
Thank you.

Please: that extension there, theofx is useful to quickly generate frames and infrastructure. if you can use it! once learned you should simplify your work a lot.
