To Set Loading Options
1. Click File > Options. The Creo View Options dialog box opens.
2. On the left, under General, select Loading. The General-Loading options open on the right.
3. To set the way in which files are loaded when Creo View is opened, select one of the following options in the Load Creo View data as box:
Autoload single file—If there is a single node in the structure with 3D geometry attached, this option loads only that part. If there are no parts with 3D geometry, Creo View loads one of the other files types, using the first one in the hierarchy. If there are multiple parts with 3D geometry, nothing is loaded. This is the default setting, and is commonly used when you want to view only one part or file.
Autoload all files—Loads the entire product structure.
No autoload—Disables automatic loading. This option is generally selected when viewing a large assembly.
4. When opening a Positioning Assembly representation that contains branch links, control the number levels of branch links that automatically expand by selecting the Autoload branch links check box, and then setting the level to expand to. By limiting the number of levels of branch links to load, large structures can be loaded more quickly.
By default, the preference is set to Expand all levels.
