Question

Help with Creo

Hi all,

I'm new to PTC and Creo, and I just started working through the 'How to Model Almost Anything' .zip cirriculum that you can find floating around here somewhere. But whenever I try to open the assembly of the first exercise -- a bike -- after setting the correct directory, nothing happens. I don't even get an error message. I can open part models in the same manner, and it works, but not assemblies. Am I missing something completely obvious? I'd appreciate any help you have time to offer.

Thanks,

Jack

Also, this is in 'Piping' because I'd thought of it like a pipeline. But if it's like actual piping then whoops, sorry. Either way it's a tenuous association.

This is probably a generic Creo Modeling question. However, if there are issues with opening assemblies, and you have exhausted every possible way to create, save, and open them, then I would suggest there is an install problem.

Since you are new to Creo, you also have a 1 year maintenance contract when you purchased or upgraded your seat. You can always open a support case for -anything- that holds you up.

If you like, I can see if there is a problem with the course itself. Please post a link to the file you are working with if this is an license free zip file.

Thanks. I would posit an intall prob, then, since it isn't just the assemblies provided in the courseware. Creo will not open any assemblies, or create any new ones. It doesn't explain why, either. You can click on assembly files to open them, or create new ones, name them, and click 'create' or whatever, and then nothing happens. Maybe I'll move this question over to a more generic field.
