Copy Model Tree Element Name To Clipboard

This application allows to copy the name of a selected model tree element to the clipboard in PTC's CAD system Creo Parametric (formerly known as Pro/ENGINEER).

Getting Started

Download

The latest version of the UDL files can be downloaded from https://github.com/DonChunior/Copy-Model-Tree-Element-Name-To-Clipboard/releases/latest.

Installing

1. Copy the file CopyModelTreeElementNameToClipboard.exe to a directory of your choice:
   • E.g. C:\temp
2. Create a new "OS Script" mapkey: "%DirectoryOfYourChoice%\CopyModelTreeElementNameToClipboard.exe" "%DirectoryContainingTrailFiles%":
   • E.g. "C:\temp\CopyModelTreeElementNameToClipboard.exe" "C:\temp\TrailDir"
   • E.g. "C:\temp\CopyModelTreeElementNameToClipboard.exe" "C:\temp\TrailDir" /noext
   • The optional second command line parameter /noext removes any file name extensions that may occur, such as ".PRT" or ".ASM".

Usage

1. Select a model tree element.
2. Execute the previously defined mapkey.
3. Now you have got the element name in the clipboard.
