Nitro-PROGRAM, Renaming Features - Video 1

Overview​

This video demonstrates how to rename features within a Pro/PROGRAM using Nitro-PROGRAM. Feature names in Pro/PROGRAM correspond to the feature names in the Creo model tree, and keeping them consistent is essential for program logic to work correctly. The video shows how Nitro-PROGRAM provides tools to rename features referenced in EXECUTE statements and IF-ENDIF blocks, ensuring that the program stays synchronized with the model tree. It covers the basic workflow of identifying features by their current names, applying new names, and updating all references throughout the program automatically.

Key Steps​

  1. Open a Creo model and launch Nitro-PROGRAM to load the Pro/PROGRAM
  2. Identify features in the program that need to be renamed
  3. Use Nitro-PROGRAM's rename functionality to update the feature name
  4. Verify that all references to the feature are updated throughout the program
  5. Write the program and confirm the model regenerates correctly with the new names

Tips​

  • Rename features in the Creo model tree first, then update the Pro/PROGRAM to match
  • Nitro-PROGRAM can update all references to a renamed feature in one operation
  • Consistent feature naming makes Pro/PROGRAM logic much easier to read and maintain
