XML for Addins

Hi,

Can I transfer the XML (DesignAddins,ParagonAddins,etc) files of the addins to be loaded in PDMS? Instead in PDMS installed directory, I will place them in other location.

What I want to do is to copy the original XML files of PDMS and place them in other location.

Use the environment variable CAF_ADDINS_PATH to set the location of the addins xml files (ex: designaddins.xml)

Hi,

What about the UIC files? Is there an environment variable? I will also place them in other location.

User Interface Customized Files (UIC), You have to define the path in evars

SET CAF_ADDINS_PATH = path
SET CAF_UIC_PATH = path

SET CAF_ADDINS_PATH = path
SET CAF_UIC_PATH = path

Thank you very much deva.

Hi,

if i specify the new path, the default xml file which is placed in installation directory is not loaded.

Can i specify both the directories?

The value can be multiple paths, separated by ';'. I mean you may use:
[COLOR=#333333]SET CAF_UIC_PATH = networkPath;localPath[/COLOR]

Hi me_hungry,

thanks for your reply.

Actually i forgot to mention that, i need the same for PDMS 12.1 / 12.0 version. For E3D, i am able specify both the path with semicolon but the same is not working with PDMS 12.1 / 12.0.
