Configuration Options for Manikin
file_dialog_units_class 
mks*, ips
Sets the units of measure for the manikin attributes displayed in the Open dialog box.
mks—Sets the units to centimeters.
ips—Sets the units to inches.
manikin_drag_auto_locks 
yes*, no
Automatically applies a natural and realistic behavior to the manikin as you drag it. The behavior is determined by a series of constraints that are applied to specific areas such as the spine or the hip. Although the hip is fixed, it automatically unfixes when selected, and will fix itself again if you try to move another segment.
manikin_flexibility 
full*, none, partial
Sets the level of manikin flexibility during dragging.
full—All manikin segments are free.
none—All manikin segments are locked.
partial—Hand DOFs (degrees of freedom) are locked.
manikin_replace_keep_posture 
yes*, no
Controls whether a manikin’s existing posture is applied to a replacement manikin.
ptc_manikin_comforts_path 
<full directory path>
Sets the default directory for the Creo Manikin comfort angles. The change takes effect when you restart Creo.
ptc_manikin_library_path 
<full directory path>
Sets the default directory for the Creo Manikin libraries or for your custom posture libraries. Custom libraries must contain the correct index menu files.
* 
Make sure that the name of the last directory in the ptc_manikin_library_path is ptc_manikin_lib, otherwise automatic retrieval will fail.
ptc_manikin_posture_path 
<full directory path>
Sets the default directory for the Creo Manikin postures or for custom posture libraries.
skip_small_surface 
yes*, no
Sets the display of small shaded surfaces.
yes—Does not display small surfaces, increasing the speed of display.
no—Displays small surfaces, decreasing the speed of display but increasing its quality.
