Hello. i am working in creo parametric 2.0.  I am trying to create a screen or mesh section of a cylindrical tube. The tube is hollow and made of solid material and 30 inches long. A 2 inch section must be a screen/mesh in the center of the tube. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

If this is not a structural model element, you could apply transparent texture that simulates the look of a mesh.

If you do need a specific 3D solid material, you could make a flat version and use spinal bend to make it round.

I am not picturing the final result you are looking for.

picture a hollow solid pipe that has a small section of its entire circumference that is a screen instead of solid. For example if water was running through the pipe it would leak through the screen when passing that section
