Creo+ and Creo Parametric

The "branch" command does not allow me to select the line to connect the tubes, what could be happening?   (view in My Videos)

How to construct ProIDTable for the assembly component I got throgh ProSolidFeatVisit api. Need assembly component path for the collected part file. ProIDTable id_table = {Array[0].id} works for the part file collected from the top level. If the required part file present inside a subassembly, this logic fails. Tried getting asm comppath typecasting ProFeature* Array to Proselection as below, didn't work. ProSelectionAsmcomppathGet((ProSelection)&Array[0], &compPath). Any ideas please?

I’m having an issue with trying to get a User defined parameter PIPE_DESCRIPTION from the linestock to the piping start part parameter DESCRIPTION.This is so when creating a pipe solid, each pipe part will have the PIPE_DESCRIPTION parameter value added to the DESCRIPTION parameter.Then I can bring this into my table BOM, along with all the other fittings and parts which have the same parameter.Is this possible or is there another way?I'm using Creo Parametric 10.0.4.0

Where is the ProRasterFileWrite API.Why can't I find it？I want to take screenshot for graphics area in Creo Parametric through toolkit.

In Creo 6.0, I am trying to create a simulation file that uses the family table to bring in the desired instance. The simulation setups (constraints, forces) fail when switching instances. I believe this is because when selecting surface regions, simulate cannot reference the feature as the part files usually do in the family table. Simulate loses the surface region reference because it is trying to access the specific feature from the specific instance where the simulation setup is created. Is there a way around this, or is this possible in newer versions of creo?

Hi, I have to import a CAD file from ALTIUM software.The CAD file is an electronic board exported by the software ALTIUM in a 25 MB .step (or 20 MB .x_t).ALTIUM can export the files format in the picture below.When I import this two types of files, they opens in a long time.How can I reduce the time of uploading of that types of CAD models?  Best regards, Michele Barile 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0Error message: "Customizing parts is not available in the standard version. Please contact your account manager to upgrade." when trying to add a fastner to an assembly. This was available for us in Creo 10.

Our requirement on the shield port/drain wire is assigned to multiconductor cable. Both sides of the cable is connected but the shield port/drain wire is terminated (connected) at one end of connector and unterminated (not connected/open) at the other end of connector. Once the unterminated shield wire is defined in schematics, it needs to be exported into XML and use it parametrically in the harness drawing without doing any additional manual work in the Creo cabling. What is the best possible solution to have a shield port/drain wire as Unterminated. We use CS 7.0 and there is a document available in PTC website. But the info is not sufficient for us to define and use the shield port/drain wire as Unterminated parametrically. Any additional information or videos can really help the users to understand better.

Working in Creo 10 I have a note on a drawing that I need to call out a combined surface area for two separate areas on the part. With single surface areas I like to drive the note parametrically by creating a measure feature in the model and referencing it in the drawing note with "&AREA:FID_XXXXXX[.1].Which ends up with this, which is what I want.However, to have both surface areas in one note I have to add them manually and input them as text, non-parametric. I've been trying various takes on this: "&area:fid_xxxxx1+xxxxx2" with no luck. Does anyone know how to combine both values into one parametric note?  

Hello Support,after installing Creo Schematics 9.0, when starting and closing the Creo Schematics application, our EDR software detects the .bat script that Creo wants to run every time. Each time it is a random name, for example "bg-hpul3.bat".The file has a different name and SHA each time. The only common point is the file location, for example "'c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\bg-hpul3.bat".1. Do you know what the following script calls?2. Is this script responsible for some Creo Schematics functionality?

Hello, Does anyone know if Creo 8 or 11 will display higher than 1080p. We are getting new offices and are trying to decide on new monitors. Does anyone know if 1440p is worth it from experience when you mainly use Creo?  Thanks in advance, Lex

Hello, When you buy a Creo Licence, they add a creo "home use" licence. If i install this licence on my personal computer, can I make commercial use of it ? But without any link with my employer who purchases the initial Creo license for my work. Concrete example :- I work in a design office of a private company with a Creo license. So i have a "home use" license in addition. On my personal time, the week-end for exemple, on my personal computer (no connection with my employer). Is it possible to design parts, print it in 3D and sell it with self-employed or independent status ? Thanks in advance.

I have the huge assembly. One of the drawing view have local section. The option "remove_cosms_from_xsecs" - set as "trim". In this case the section is shown correctly, but some cables are not visible or partially visible. When I change option  "remove_cosms_from_xsecs" to "total", then  all cables become visible, but section looks strange. Please see attached picture: there are shown displaying with different settings. Maybe somebody knows the secret trick how to make all thick cables visible and at the same time so that the local section is displayed correctly?I use Creo 9.

Hello everyone,I am encountering an issue with importing JT files into Creo Parametric 7.0.12.0 (also tested in Creo 11) that specifically affects parts. During the import process, hyphens ("-") in part names are automatically replaced with underscores ("_"). Interestingly, this behavior does not occur with assemblies and sub-assemblies, where hyphens are retained (please see attached images).Is there a way to disable or modify this behavior so that hyphens in part names are preserved? Perhaps a hidden option in the configuration files (config.pro) or any other solution that someone might know?Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Thank you in advance!Kurt

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.5.0Can't active “Section” from view manager  

This error shows up after assembling multiple rocker arm if you have any idea to solve this share that!!! Have a good day!!!... (I am using creo 5.0)  

When creating the first view of a flat pattern part, the overall (outside) dimensions and the bend angle (that’s a note, not a dim) will automatically show on the flat part.It was working but one day stopped working.How can I get that feature working again?Is there a config.pro option for that?I can still show the dims with “show model annotation” command.Creo Parametric 8.0.2.0

A weld symbol on a drawing specifies all around but it needs to be changed. The weld symbol was created in older version of Creo (4.0 or Wildfire 5.0) but where is this option located so it can be removed.. What is being overlooked?

Hi there, is there a way to deactivate "auto check in" in Windchill or in Creo 10?The thing with check in comments is, that our engineers tend to be lazy, when it comes to make "meaningful" comments.I tweaked the "custom check in" dialogue on the Windchill side to run some test on the comment, before it is accepted ( e.g. minimum length where "bla bla" does not count). But since there is this "auto check in" button in Creo, those lazy engineers can easily circumvent those tests. I already asked a similar question herehttps://community.ptc.com/t5/Customization/disable-quot-auto-check-in-quot/m-p/358999#M7254But the "solution" was not working for me. My hope is, that from Creo 3 to Creo 10 (and from Windchill 10 to 12) some things have changed ( and improved 🤞 ).

Hello,I would be grateful if someone could help me with the following design. Being unable to do 3D sketches as I used to do in Solidworks, I am confronted as to how to proceed.Thanks in advance.

I am getting notifications for parts in Creo see attached screeenshot. Kindly request you to advise the fundamental base reason for the same?I would appreciate your help with it.

I am trying to run a structure mode analysis for a support plate assembly i have put together. Ive put together an assembly (fully constrained, and all part materials are defined) but I keep getting errors saying that i have cracks in my model.  This prevents me from running any sort of simulation. Ive looked online as to what creo means by cracks and from what i see.  "A crack exists in the model, probably caused by adjacent placement of free or contactinterfaces and bonded interfaces in a configuration that results in multiple coincidentcurves connecting the same pair of nodes. Please modify the interfaces to avoid this."Im unsure of what to do since everything is fully constrained.  nothing is overlapping or has any duplicate parts, and i cant really put the braze in that will hold everything together when this is manufactured. because of this, alot of the assembly has .002 or the like spacing.
