Issue
A recent case reports that the name of the result ProE file is not what the user sets, no matter with UI or API.
Assume we have a part named:
DIN 3771 - 34,5 x 2,65 - N - NBR 70(7)39,86.ipt
Save as to Pro/E file, the result file name is:
4_5_x_2_65_-_N_-_NBR_70_7_39_86.g
Solution
Because of some limitations, the saved .g file name will include only “a-z, A-Z, 0-9, -, _”. Other characters will be replaced by ‘_’. Also, the saved .g file name size will be limited to 31 characters. So, some characters are trimmed.
