Cross-Section Arrows Questions, CREO 10.0.0

I notice that in CREO Parametric 10.0.0, to add Arrows for a Cross-sections you have to first open up the edit hatching tab (by clikcing on the hatch lines), then switch the to the Layout tab to find the Arrows tool. It looks like you can no longer start with the Arrows tool and then click on the desired hatching either.

 

Is there an easier way to show the placement Arrows of a Cross-section than having to switch tabs?

Hi,

you selected hatching. You have to select view.

Hopefully they have not made it harder.  I am still on 7.0.

 

I have always selected the sectioned view and selected Add Arrows from the RMB menu then select the view for the arrows.

    Looks to me that the RMB menu doesn't have the Add Arrows option anymore in CREO 10. Those icons are to half/double the spacing or change the angle.

      That does work, thanks. I didn't see it as my Drawing View menu is cutoff after the Reference Option. I had to use the scroll bar to scroll over to see that extra option even though I have a wide monitor. 

       

      Is there a good way to make a Request to PTC that they should include the Arrows tool in the Edit hatching Tab or in the Pop-up menu when you click on the Hatch?

      I am not using Creo 10 yet so I am not able to test this, but you should be able to customize the pop up menu by adding the command you want. You may be able to add the command directly to the menu or if not then create a mapkey to add it.
