Question

Open file of other cad system

Hello

when open one file of other cad system (like Cathia, SolidWork, ecc) Creo Parametric create a new file with extension (.creo) in the same folder of the original file.

I'd like to controll the option to create or not create, and the position of cration.

When you say the position of creation, do you mean file folder, the coordinate system of the created part, or something else?

What is your working directory set to? Are you opening the other file from the working directory and Creo is placing the creo file in the same folder?

Try setting the working directory to another folder where you want the creo file and then browser to the location of the other cad file and open it. See if that gives you what you want.
