Question

Can Creo directly open a drawing from an open part?

As a certified SolidWorks professional now using Creo there are a few shortcuts I miss, one of which is being able to open a drawing for a part from the model tree. In Solidworks you can do this with ether a part file or and assembly, but you can find the part in the model tree, right click and select open drawing. This shortcut will then open the drawing associated with that part without having to cycle through menus and folders looking for the drawing required.

Is this something you can do in Creo 3.0 or do i have to make a macro linked to a hot key to make this functionality?

Thanks

No out of the box functionality for this. The part (or assy) doesn't track drawings whatsoever.

 

There is a work-around that may work for you.
