Hi PTC Community, I was wondering if it is possible to open two components in other window in an assembly?

Well, I'm working in some views but in some of them I need the view of two different components in an assembly. My question is, if it is possible to open two different components in another window?, because if I want to open one component is easy, I just right click and then open, but if I select two the option disappear.

 

I'm using Creo parametric 2.0. I will appreciate your help.

Regards.

Hi,

you cannot open multiple components in one step. You have to open components one by one.

Hi Carlos,

You can create a Simplified Representation, which consists of just the 2 components.  Then retrieve the Simp Rep.

Thanks,

Hello guys, I have found another way to do it, thank you for taking your time answering.

Now, I have another issue. When I pass the 3D to 2D there is some components that have a lot of lines, if I set no hidden it does not help.

Then I tried with a option called "Fast HLR for Drawing" it help me but when I see the component in other different program like .dwg I saw the lines again.

This is like it suppose to be at the moment of see the file:

No_hidden_Creo.PNG

This is how it is showed:

No_hidden_OtherProgram.PNG

Those are tangent lines (edges of curved surfaces). Select the views, right click properties, go to the view display tab, set tangent edges to NONE.
