I'm trying to get centerlines to print properly, either on paper or PDF.  My DRW is shown in 1st pic.  The centerlines are adjusted so that each hole has the small dashes in the center.  The 2nd pic is what the PDF output looks like -- small dashes are gone.  I found plot_linestyle_scale setting, which does exactly what I'm looking for, but for the DOTFONT line style (hidden lines).  Anybody know how to similarly adjust scaling factor for CTRLFONT line style?

Creo 7 Does anyone know how to edit the # of significant figures for a rotation direction dimension used in a table pattern? I created an axis pattern and then converted it to a table pattern to vary some dims including the clocking angle use to place pattern members. The ROT_DIR_1 dimension is a known dimension (angle) defined in the sketch of the pattern leader feature. Once this pattern is converted to table driven, I am not able to select that dimension to alter the number of decimal places.   I am able to use the find tool to locate this dimension but when selected no actions are available to edit/change it in any way.          

i would like to understand the template names when starting a new document. is there a reference to all the template names (eg mmks_asm.design_abs and all the other variants)  

Hello all, I came across Slope Analysis, and despite reading the whole Help page, I still do not understand what "Slope Analysis" is and what it is used for. What is the meaning of Min/Max slope (-1...1)?What are the units of the slope results?What does this analysis check?This analysis has the option to generate an Analysis Feature, which case uses an analysis feature for this analysis?Thank you for the responses in advance.

Hello, i want to create a request where Parametric is asking me after a model regeneration from where it should take the parameters (look at the picture). How can i set that?  

Spellcheck for drawings in Creo parametric, Should have spellcheck suggestions for drawings.

Hey everybody,fighting with Creo Parametric on a weekly basis within our classrooms i'm slowly getting better with Creo8.I'll take a try within this community basis: is there a config.pro-option (or elsewhere) to adjust the automatic length of the centerline within a half-section-view. "half-section-line" within "Drawing properties" does change the appearence (from solid to centerline and vice versa), but the offset length (and the adjustment) is a mystery. Where can i find the correct option within gazillion Creo-possibilities?Looking forward 😉Edit: yes, i tried to handle/modify it directly...

how do i get black and white line drawing suitable for dimensioned drawings, instead of my actual colour shaded model being shown on the 2D drawing?

In Creo 9.0.7.0 the  Copy Geometry Ccommand is greyed out, How to activate this button so our users can use it?Without using up the Creo Advanced Design License 

As I recall, importing image in Notebooks was possible in the past. Currently, there seems to be an issue with it. Sometime importing a jpg might pop up, but most of all you get a frame showing 'OLE' and the imported file name, but no graphics.I can't seem to figure out what the root cause is. Importing an existing JPG file as an object seems the only way to do in a notebook, while a drawing has a specific Images import commandAnyone knows how to solve this?Using Creo 9.0.4.0 and to my knowledge this worked fine in Creo Parametric 7

Hello everyone, I'm still having trouble with "Allow Assumptions", see also https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Problem-with-Constraint-Orientation-Assumptions/m-p/759215. I still don't appreciate how they changed it and I also report equally anomalous behaviour.I present to you with a simple example ASM file the fact that a completely assembled component with "allow assumption" assembled squared if repeated, can be incorrectly rotated. In the attached asm file I have assembled a box and a square nut on a hole.I created the files with Creo 2.0 to give the more curious that the problem does not occur in Creo 2.0.If I try to reassemble this nut in the other holes with the "Repeat" command or by copying and pasting it with the "Paste Special" command, the nut in some holes is correctly squared while in others it is incorrectly rotated. For me it's a big nuisance because when duplicating the screws it forces me to add the third constraint to each element instead of r

Hello,can someone help me, please.I recently got a new computer with Windows 11. I have Creo 8 and Creo View 9 installed now. I can't get creo files in explorer to be opened primarily with creo view when  double clicked? Thanks 

Hello, I am trying to create optimized parts for AM. During the initial optimization (pic 1), the part looks very good and respects the Excluded Geometry bodies, ie. keep out areas.  However, when I generate the result to reconstructed part (pic 2), it will create shapes intersecting with Excluded Geometry areas. In this example, I cannot attach the required fasteners to final design since the organic blobs are blocking it.  I thought that build direction could have something to do with it, so I flipped it to not have any internal "ceilings", or bridging, in the design. Same result (pic 3). I have tried to change material, material spreading, forces, output resolution level, excluded geometry design etc (pic 4). The same challenge repeats, final reconstructed design does not respect my excluded geometry. I am running it on CREO Parametric  10.0.1.0 with GTO & AAX extensions.All tips are welcome & appreciated!

I am learning more about how to use layers in Creo Parametric. One issue I have is the Layer Tree becoming unwieldy. Currently, I have an assembly model with a really long layer tree with a large amount of layers that have no contents. I'd like to delete these layers to shorten the tree and make it easier to read/use. I haven't found a way to automate this process. I was hoping that there would be a filter to show all the empty layers or a "find" function to select only empty layers for deleting. Does anyone else have this issue? What are some workarounds or methods that might ease the approach to cleaning up the layer tree? Thanks

Creo Parametric 7 I have a table pattern with 3 members, the third member is failing but I have not been able to root cause the failure. The pattern regenerates when only varying the angle dimension (ROT DIR 1), when I add the linear dimension to the pattern it is failing.   I am looking for options on how to determine what is wrong. If anyone has suggestions for diagnostics or can see the issue, chime in.     Creo 7 model posted for review.      

How do I use the flexible modeling move command to rotate surfaces?  I can move them linearly, but how do I rotate them 90 degrees?  I am using CREO 10.

Hi Guys, How do I change these values? I've seen a post saying its Linear_tol, but this doesnt seem to change anything. now that we are testing out MBD, I'm noticing that in 3d these are not what I want shown for tolerances.  I want it to match my 2d drawings as:.xxxx =+-.0005.xxx = +-.001.xx = +-.005.x = +-.01 This is what Ive tried added to my config,pro with no luck in changing this. Im assuming my formatting on the config is not correct?    

I'm using creo 10.0.2.0. I can't get basic layers to work consistently and am not sure why... So, I created a sketch in the model. I want to show up in my drawing, but be hidden in the model. So first, I create a layer called CS_Measurement and add the sketch to it. Then I hide it in the model. Then i go to my drawing. I select my Left_10 view so i can control that view independent of all else. I click on CS_Measurement, and the red dotted line appears as a preview. Then I right click on CS_Measurement so I can unhide the sketch, but...... Apparently it's already unhidden because it gives me the "Hide" command only... Except it's not unhidden because it's not showing up in yellow like it should when i click away.so maybe i have to expand the CS_Measurement layer and unhide the sketch itself. However, the only option presented is "Unhide in Model". But I don't want to do that... I just want to unhide in that drawing view every now and then, ill try unhiding some things, re-hiding o

Hello  I wanted to know if there is any setting where we can turn off the windchill online workspace in one creo (i.e. work offline), and simultaneously work online on windchill workspace another creo. I am using creo 4.0. I know it was possible previously in creo 3 but is there any way to copy the same funcationality in creo 4.0? I would appreciate your responses. 

Hi Community,(Creo 10.0.4.0)I'm setting up templates for new drawing templates and want to have a field in the title box about the export file name:1-00001234_01.stp<Part_numnber>_<Version>.stp&<parameter_name>_&<parameter_name> It looks for parameters the underscore "_" is breaking the definition, it needs a separator. What is the correct way to combine two parameters without space or with a character?Is there any markdown available for Creo tables?

When creating the balloons, some of them end up overlapping, or even being left out of the spreadsheet, and another scenario is that, when creating the balloons in some views, you end up taking geometric references that are not visible in that view..

I'm going thru the hole files editing the notes and customizing them to our needs.  I got to the NPT and NPTF hole files and started looking thru the .hol definition and noticed there was no information for the DEFAULT_CALLOUT_FORMAT_DATA section.  However, I'm getting the note as defined below. I'm wondering where it is getting this data as I'd like to edit it slightly.  I've looked that all the possible locations a .hol file could be and don't see where it could be getting this callout data. Our hole_parameter_file_path config option is pointing into Windchill and the callout data is not defined in those files.  I looked in the <loadpoint>\Common Files\text\hole location as well as my creo home location and the NPT and NPTF hole files do not exist there. Creo 8.0.0.0Thanks...  

How can i make my formats save in the template, i always make all the work, save the template but when i go open, dont have any format in there, i dunno what to do anymore.i already save as template as drw, notting works, i think i am broke thats why i have so many problems in the creo.funny that one of them saved as i wanted  

We recently upgraded from Creo 4.0 to Creo 9.0.  When I open older drawings that have section views or create new section views, I now see these big "X"s all over the drawing.  How do I get rid of them?
