Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi Folks,Is there a way to customize/tailor the Bill of Materials report in assembly mode so that the headers can be specified as parameters?  For example, instead of the default column header 'Name' I would like it to be 'Title'.  I would also like to create additional column headers. Thank you. 

I’ve found an alternative to expensive post processors for Creo. I’ve been testing ManusNC and it’s pretty good. Easy to develop your own post processor for any machine tool and supports Creo NC. Check it out;https://manusnc.com/enFor a five axis post it cost $1500 without a need for yearly subscription. Hundreds of premade posts ready to go. Simple web interface to create a post.

Hello, I want to perform a forced conversion of Assembly to WAssembly in the asynchronous invocation mode. Currently, I am relying on the pfcasync.jar. I noticed that there is no WAssembly in it.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 12.4 and Datecode12.4.3.0Subject: Creo 12.4 + Windchill: J-Link Model.Rename() always returns XToolkitCantModifyWe are migrating a Java J-Link workflow from Creo 6 to Creo 12.4 in a Windchill-linked environment.In Creo 12.4, Model.Rename(newName, false) fails consistently with XToolkitCantModify for both .asm and .drw.Isolated test (minimal):1. RetrieveModelWithOpts() on MAC_NEXTAIR_2.ASM and MAC_NEXTAIR_2.DRW2. CheckIsModifiable(false) => true3. CheckIsSaveAllowed(false) => true4. Model.Rename(...) => XToolkitCantModifyManual rename from Creo UI (same environment) works.We reviewed CS419079 / CS419066 about read-only policy since Creo 10, but our case is unclear because modifiable/save-allowed are true while J-Link rename still fails.Please confirm:1. Is J-Link Model.Rename() supported for Windchill-managed models in Creo 12.4?2. Is checkout mandatory for rename in this context?3. Is there a known difference between UI rename and J-Link rena

I've created a J-Link application, which has a swing GUI. On click of a UI command button, I'm creating a part files (simulating File--> New Part). The same thing when wanted to simulate through a swing GUI in synchronous mode, the GUI gets created, but when I push the button in the GUI, the GUI hangs. Can any one help me in making the swing GUI work with PROE?class MenuButtonListener extends DefaultUICommandActionListener { public void OnCommand() { try { //This works Session curSession = pfcGlobal.GetProESession(); Model tryModel = curSession.CreatePart("Testing"); tryModel.Display(); //This doesn't work //How to make it work csProe.StepToProeGui.createAndShowGUI(); } catch (Exception x) { STEP_TO_PROE.printMsg("something wrong: " + x); x.printStackTrace(); System.out.println("------------------------------------"); } }}

Hi,I have a large assembly and would like to create a clear, step-by-step single animation. I am planning to use different simplified representations to generate clean exploded views for each stage of the animation.However, in the Animation window, I can only see options to control explode states, timing, and view orientation. I do not see any option to control or switch simplified representations.Could you please let me know if there is a way to operate or include simplified representations within the animation sequence?I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions. Kind Regards,Sunil Kotte

I've got an odd one and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this/has a solution? I have been using Creo 11 parametric with an educators licence. Yesterday I was creating a fairly basic drawing, upon saving the drawing it crashed on me (this isn't a regular occurrence). When attempting to re-open the drawing it 'loaded' but nothing was displayed, no template, model or annotations. I closed the program and tried to open different drawing, but this time only the template and annotations loaded in, no model visible. Loading parts and assemblies also became difficult, with components not rendering properly. Often models would load in only as wireframe even if a shaded option was selected, also on occasion large orange triangles will be displayed around the part?  After trying various options I uninstalled Creo 11 and re-installed with Creo 12. I am finding that the same issue is still occurring? The drawings sometimes load in partially/completely if I open the part f

I have a simple part (modeled by somebody else or imported).It has some phantom lines that I can't hide.In 3D model space, If I set to "wireframe, no hidden" there are still hidden lines that shine through.Same thing happens if I make a drawing from this part.It may be a configuration setting rather than part issue, since the lines do not show up on other people's machines. Creo 11.Any help will be appreciated. 

Hi experts i have doosan s310 smly mill turn with fanuc series 18-t control..i need post processor for creo.

Hello everyone, when Ι try to install creo parametric 12.4.0.0 Ι get this message and the creo parametric cant fully installed. Ι have try to install the latest java and the java 21 and still have the same problem. And then the pop up window shows about that my hardware cant be qualified for the photo render studio but when Ι run the hardware check utility , it shows that my hardware is qualified as you can see for those in the attached files.Please give me an advice for how to solve that problem.Thank you

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.12.0The mapkey doesn't wait for the simulation to end in the Material Removal (Module Works).Once the simulation is started in the Module Works window, all buttons except the Stop button are disabled until the simulation ends.How can I add a script to the mapkey that queries the window and waits for the simulation to end?Thanks

Hi All, When applying tolerances to dimensions, if I select Symmetric the box is greyed out so I can't enter a value.  When I select Plus-Minus only one box appears for the minus value. This problem has just appeared and is present if I try to alter the tolerance on the model or the drawing.  I have Creo 5 and 11 installed on my PC and the problem is present in both versions even though they read different config files.  When My Colleague opens the files on his PC the problem isn't present.   Symmetric selected:Plus-Minus selected: Any help greatly appreciated! Kind regards, Clive 

Problem Description:I am having trouble displaying part-level dimensions in a drawing view when both the part and the assembly are in Simplified Representations.What works:Dimensions show correctly in the standalone Part model (both Master and Simplified Reps).Dimensions show correctly in the Assembly drawing if the view is set to the Master Representation.The Issue:When I switch the Assembly drawing view to a Simplified Representation, the part-level dimensions disappear.I want to display the part in its own "Simplified" state (to show specific geometry/features) within an assembly-level view, but Creo seems to lose the feature references required for the dimensions once the assembly "simplifies" that component.Goal:I need to show the simplified version of the part in an assembly drawing view without losing the ability to show model annotations/dimensions for that part.

I needed to do a good cleanout, so I cleaned up all my workspaces then deleted my .wf folder. Not to  unusual but may be the first time since moving to creo 10 (late last year)  that I have done this. I run config.pro option to load my ui customization from my run directory  -  load_ui_customization_run_dir yes I was surprised that after deleting my .wf, I lost my settings even tho I had checked prior to deleting that the one in my startup directory customization ui file was dated recently, which i thought confirmed my location.   What did I miss?

Selecting a feature from the model tree and hiding its visibility will make the feature not visible. Selecting a feature from the model in the workspace window and hiding its visibility places the feature on a hidden layer and it cannot be seen again (even if you make it visible on the model tree) unless you remove it from the hidden layer in the layer tree. I don't understand why I cannot unhide it from the model tree without first removing it from the hidden layer on the layer tree. I primarily use Creo for CAM programming and really have no use for layers, so I find this pretty annoying.  I don't think it was like this prior to going to 10.  Is there a fix for this behavior? Thank you,Matt

I am using Creo Pro/TOOLKIT (C++) to extract drawing dimension attachments.Observed behavior:When a dimension is attached to an edge or surface, all attachment APIs return valid results.When a dimension is attached to a cylindrical axis / hole centerline, none of the following APIs return that attachment:ProDimensionAttachmentsGetProDrawingDimAttachpointsGetProDrawingDimAttachpointsViewGetThis occurs for both linear and ordinate dimensions, even though the drawing visually shows the dimension referencing the cylinder axis.Questions:Is this behavior by design in Creo (i.e., axis stored as an implicit or drawing-only entity)?Is there any direct API to retrieve axis-based dimension attachments?If not, what are the recommended workarounds or best practices to catch attachments for dimensions with axis as attachments?Any guidance or confirmation would be appreciated.

I copied an existing drawing that already had an A and B datum that was defined in the drawing as "set datum tags". During the modeling, the attachment points (both shown dimensions in the drawing) were removed. I go back to the drawing, I tried creating datums A and B as "set datum tags" and it tells me they already exist. In the past, i have been successful finding stuff like this with the find tool. Not this time. I tried find in the drawing, every find option I could use. I tried in the model. No luck there. Just to be clear, these are drawing created set datum tags using the "datum feature symbol" from within the drawing. Little red underline on the B datum means it's a duplicate name. The question is, how do I find a missing "set datum tag" within the drawing. I use the term "set datum tag" specifically because that is what it is called and what the find tool found when I created another that it did find in the drawing.        

HI, I'm new to CreoJS and it is the first time i meet this situation. In Feburary 2026 PTC introduced new important features for me. How can I update CreoJS without reinstalling whole Creo.    

 ComponentConstraint constraint = componentConstraints.get(i); Selection compRef = constraint.GetAssemblyReference(); Model model = compRef.GetSelModel(); Hello，During the development, I encountered that when the Model is an array, the assembly item model obtained from the constraint is not the correct array model. I used the above code to obtain the model according to the principle that the array parts indicated by the red arrow were obtained, but the source file indicated by the green arrow was obtained. Is there a way to get the parts of the array?

I'm using Creo 11 w/ Complete Machining Extension. I'm trying to learn 5-axis milling capabilities of Creo and I want to have a full tool library curated by someone else. I have downloaded the "Tooling Library" from PTC page "Legacy Creo Libraries".https://www.ptc.com/en/support/enablement/AdditionalCreolibraries Can anyone teach me or send me documentation on how to make use of the tools inside of Creo. For every .prt file of a tool there seems to be a corresponding .mnu file and there are 3 or 4 .exe. I imagine there is a way to view the .mnu files in a master menu with graphics, but I don't know. Thanks,Kevin

Hi all,I am building an automated drawing export system using Creo Toolkit (Creo 12, Windows, DLL architecture). PDF and DXF batch export are working perfectly via ProPDFExport and Pro2dExport. PLT export has been the blocker for 2+ days.What I have tried:1. ProPrintExecute — All three option getters succeed (status=0):ProPrintPrinterOptionsGet("postscript") ✅ProPrintMdlOptionsGet ✅ProPrintPlacementOptionsGet ✅But ProPrintExecute always returns -22 (PRO_TK_BAD_CONTEXT). Window ID from ProMdlWindowGet is confirmed valid (1001). Drawing is retrieved, displayed, window activated and set current before the call.2. cpbatch.exe — Cannot find it anywhere in our Creo 12 corporate installation:Parametric\bin\ — only parametric.exe and cocreatesim.exeCommon Files\x86e_win64\obj\ — not presentIs cpbatch.exe still shipped with Creo 12 or has it been removed?3. xtop.exe — Present in our installation. Has anyone used it for headless batch PLT export? What arguments does it accept?Environment:Creo Pa

I'm using Creo 2.0 currently and would like to be able to assign material properties to bulk items in an assembly I have. I want this for reporting the PTC_MATERIAL_NAME parameter in my drawing BOM. In the assembly model in Creo 2.0, there's no way to right-click on a part and assign materials. For each part, I have to open them and manually set the material by going to File -> Prepare -> Model Properties, which is not an option for bulk materials because the only way to access them is through the Relations window. PTC_MATERIAL_NAME is a reserved parameter and cannot be manually added in relations. Do I need to change my BOM settings to a user defined parameter for each part in the model? Any other workaround?
