how to Point to custom file in config.pro

hello everybody.

i've changed the colors of the screen to my convenience and i've saved those
settings in a syscol.scl file in the working directory. my problem is that
this file is not loaded at startup. the help says that the config.pro must
point to this file to load it when proe start. how do i do this ?. Another
thing, after severall tries i cannot save my personnal settings to
config.pro. even if i put the file in the required locations (working
directory, /proe/text/, tec...) proe still load with default settings. How
the hell can i change this ?
thanks in advance.
Luís.

 

Here are some example file callouts in my config pro:

pro_colormap_path I:\Pro\
mdl_tree_cfg_file I:\PRO\TREE.CFG
system_colors_file I:\Pro\SYSCOL.SCL

 

Look at the Configuration Options manual.

Pro/E loads config.pro files in this order:

$loadpoint/proe$ver/text/
$home
$workingdir

Your personal config.pro should be in your home directory. Check that
$home is correctly set. Check that the permissions are correct. Remove
any uncessary config.pro files from the system. And I recommend that
you edit your config by hand (and audit it with something like
check_config) just so you know exactly what's going on.
