PCL; Utilities/Views Based On CoordX - is it possible to execute with PCL?

Hello! I am investigating possibilities for result display adjustment and I found Utilities/Views Based On CoordX . Running this utility does not produce any PCL output. Is it possible to run this through PCL?

  • Hi Adam,
    yes, the local view stuff was added into the standard utilities in 2023.
    To use it in 2022 you can try copying the "utilities.plb" file from the 2023 install (e.g. C:\Program Files\MSC.Software\Patran_x64\20233\shareware\msc\unsupported\utilities\plb\utilities.plb ) to the 2022 install. I think this will be unlikely to cause any issues but make a backup copy of the origial plb before doing so in case you need to revert to it.
    best regards, Arthur
