New functions added to GENIUS TOOLS Model Processor are marked with NEW.

AND linkage

Linkage that requires that all Filter conditions must be true for the result of the filter node to be “true.”

Anonymous filter

Enhanced filter that is defined within a task and cannot be used for other tasks.

Batch list (batch file list)

List of files that are processed in batch mode using the selected task list in Creo Parametric. Each file in this list is processed once.

Batch mode

Mode of processing that revises a multitude of files when executing an task list.

Batch rule

Specification for the processing of batch list that determines which models are processed – either by Exclude or Include rules.

Body

Area of a task list containing the tasks to be executed during model revision.

Creo variable

Can be used in the @VAR@ format wherever text input is possible. View the list of all variables here.

Enhanced filter

Filter that specifies the conditions under which a task is executed. Enhanced filters are divided into Anonymous and Stored filters.

Environment variable

Variable %user:var%.Can be used in all text input fields.

Exclude Rule

Batch rule that defines files which are to be excluded from previous results, e.g., all files that do not have the file extension .asm. Since exclude rules are applied on files that have been specified, they cannot be the first rule in a list.

Feature filter NEW

Special type of filter that determines the features to be processed. Can apply to a feature task or can define a feature filter node in an Enhanced filter.

Filter

Specifies the model types and conditions for which an task is executed. There are Model filters and Enhanced filters. Filters are evaluated before a task is executed.

Filter tree NEW

Tree structure in which enhanced filters are defined by creating Filter nodes and operators (AND/OR linkage).

Filter condition

Specifications that must be met for a filter to return “true.”

Filter group

Multiple filter nodes created under a Group node that must be met together (AND linkage) or individually (OR linkage).

Filter node NEW

One or more conditions that define an Enhanced filter. Classified by category in the filter palette.

Foot

Area of a Task list containing the tasks to be executed after model revision, e.g., report tasks.

Global filter

Model filter that applies to all tasks of a Task list. Created in the Body area.

Group mode

Defines how the task in an Task group are executed, e.g., whether a new drawing should be created.

Head

Area of a Task list containing the tasks that are executed before the model revision.

Include Rule

Type of batch rule that specifies that all files matching a specific rule are processed, e.g., all files that start with A.

Model filter

Filter that determines the model type (part, assembly, drawing) to which a task is performed.

MPX file NEW

File format in which a project is saved in the new Model Processor.

MPZ file

File format in which a Model Processor project is saved in Model Processor Classic.

Negated filter

Filter node that returns “true” if the filter condition does not apply. Negated filters are colored purple.

OR linkage

Linkage that requires that at least one Filter condition must be true for the result of the filter node to be “true.”

Project

Compilation of metadata, task lists, filters, and batch rules that are stored in an MPX file.

Regular expressions (RegEx)

Character strings for simplified description of commands that can be used in settings where the RegEx editor symbol RegexButton is located to the right of the input mask.

Report

Task from the Report category that creates a report definition and is stored under Resources.

Resources NEW

Global definitions that apply across the Head, Body, and Foot sections. Resources are not tasks.

Stored filter

Enhanced filter that can be applied to multiple tasks and is saved in the Enhanced filter menu item.

Task

One or several action(s) that is (are) applied to a model.

Task group

Collection of tasks to which a group mode and group filter can be assigned.

Task lists

Totality of tasks that rework defined models in sequence. Each task list has the sections Head, Body, Foot, and NEW: Resources.

Universal report

Created based on a filter. The content of the universal report depends on if the filter returns true or false.

User variable

Variable %user:var% . Can be used in all text input fields.

XML file

Output format for task lists and filters.
