Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Creo Parametric 10 introduced a new collector in the sketcher that requires an extra step to complete the function.Users must now click the tiny check-mark in a floating menu bar or all collected references are lost for Project, Offset, etc.If the user clicks anything else before clicking the check-mark, all references are lost.I have lost so much productivity due to this change, and several others have complained about the same issue.It would ease the adoption of this new step if there were a warning, such as "Are you sure you want to quit?" instead of just deleting all of my work. PTC, please add a quit warning to the new sketcher reference collector so work and productivity is not lost.

Hi,I am looking to cleanup my hardware inventory and IFX tool. How can I export all of the IFX hardware that I have created into a spreadsheet? I have a spreadsheet with all the parts created in Windchill and want to compare it to all of the parts that are able to be populated using IFX, ensuring there are not duplicates or unwanted hardware in Windchill. Is there an automated way or a tool to do this so that I don't have to manually copy all the data from each family table into one spreadsheet. I am using Creo 9.0.5

Hi,We currently run Creo 10 and Windchill 12. When looking at the compatibility of Creo and Windchill a newer version of Creo, version 11 in this case, seems to require an update of Windchill. Out of curiosity, what is the reason for having to update Windchill with an update of Creo? This makes it difficult and takes a long time to get a budget for such an update.

Hello, I am trying to export a model so that it will be shown correct in a web 3D viewer tool. This marketing tool is called "Spline.Design" and opens the possibility to show a 3D Model on a website like other tools can do too - nothing special.  The formats GLTF, STL, FBX, OBJ are possible to import / use with the tool. Unfortunately the colors which I can see in creo will not be shown in this web tool. I want to understand if this is a problem of the tool or my process by exporting the model to one of those formats. To exclude one half of the possibilities I would like to show you my export process so you could inspect the process / steps. I am exporting assemblies (.asm): - File - Save as - Save copy- The "save copy" window opens.- I define a new file name and choose the right type, in this case wavefront (.obj)- the wavefront export settings I dont change:- the wavefront export window opens. I choose the coordinate system of the assembly to define the expor

Newbie here.  How can I create a hole pattern on a conical solid?

Welcome to Third Angle, where we’re exploring how technology is reshaping the retail industry..   In this episode, we shine a light on Marks & Spencer, affectionately known as M&S, a retail giant with a rich history dating back over 100 years. Known for its resilience and adaptability, they have continually responded to societal needs, evolving from a staple on the high street to a leading global retailer focused on fashion, clothing, home, and food.   Recently, the team at M&S have been working on building the collection for Spring 2025, they’ve also been leveraging an integrated technology ecosystem which means designing and developing clothing digitally, from planning all the way to market to drive speed and efficiency.   This time, we have the privilege of meeting Richard Price, Managing Director of Clothing, Home, and Beauty at M&S, who gave our producer, Hannah Dean, an exclusive demonstration of their latest innovations, a sneak peak into their d

Hi, I'm a young mechanical engineering student and at my school we use Creo. I would like to know if in the "manufacturing" module it is possible to add "holding tabs" between the blank and the part to be machined (as it is possible to do in Fusion360). I use a very basic 3-axis CNC machine.   Thanks in advance for any help! PS : i'm a beginer, so don't hesitate to correct me if i use wrong words !

how do I set the units of a drawing to display mm regardless of the units set in a part model.i.e. Part model is in inch units but I want the drawing to display in mm.    

I have a cross section using a hatching we have been using for rubber since Creo 7. We have upgraded to 10 (version 10.0.4.0) and I have created a directory to store user defined cross hatching. When I call up the drawing and pick the hatching in the detail view and try to save under "User defined" the program locks up, waits about 10 seconds, and then winks out. No write-back, no nothing, just a fast crash. Any ideas as to what it is doing? It is repeatable.  

Can you tell me if the Creo Parametric trial license include all the Creo design essentials modules?

I'm troubleshooting some unexpected behaviour with frameworks. My company works in metric, but the steel profiles we use are imperial. Building a weldment with plates and beams, I usually make the plates in our metric template and the beams through whatever frameworks uses to generate the parts. There are no problems until I make the drawing and detail the parts. The plates show metric dimensions just fine, but the beams show imperial values with no unit indication. In the picture attached, the R18.4 and R20.44 should actually be R467.36 and R519.176. Am I missing some settings that would correct this?

Creo Parametric 10.0.4.0Problem: With implemented auto assignment of material for new parts, Using the create workpiece option the material assigned does not have a density assigned. With company wide standard config option "mass_property_calculate automatic" a notification about Outdated Mass Properties is displayed and adds time to resolve.No option to define template when creating a new Workpiece in NC.No option to assign a Default density on newly created parts for workpiece.You can create Solid parts, assign density and reuse those part for workpiece using “Assemble Workpiece”.  This is NOT a good solution takes longer to perform. Default material PTC_SYSTEM_MTRL_PROPS is not accessible to change.  Article CS160794, incorrectly defined a way to use a template during creation. This only applies to Mold. This is very sad that this option has been available in Mold but not in NC for a very long time.

Hi In my drawing i have place 3 types of view with different different scales and I deleted the default scale note but now i need to create a new scale note for each views again. Suggest me with a best way to create that note again easily.  Ramaniedharan R  

HiA pros vs cons question... do people find the built in rendering functionality better than 3rd party apps like Keyshot? I'm restarting animating a model in Parametric, and watching lots of videos, but then I see some people still discussing questions on how to export mechanics to apps like Keyshot. Is the animation rendering in Creo Parametric more difficult / longer to complete / not as sophisticated / etc in comparison? Should I not bother trying to learn Creo Parametric animation rendering and instead export to Blender or Keyshot and do there? I know Blender is free, and I don't have a Keyshot licence. I have just updated my software to Parametric v11 (educational licence). Thanks

Hi,can anyone tell me which standard 2553 complies with the Creo welding symbol library?Could it be ISO 2553:1992?Thank youI'm using Creo 9.0.8.0

Hi All I'm a newbie in CREO simulate. Please guide me how to run a dynamic shock analysis on model with an input shock of 280g for 3 ms. Thanks in advanceDilip

So I have had this issue randomly for some time now.  It has persisted from Creo 2 M060 to the M200 release I am currently running, even persisting across multiple computers.   In rare instances (could be a part drawing, could be assembly drawing)  then the model is altered the drawing does not update the views.   No amount of regeneration updates the views.  So far the only consistent way I found to get the views to update was to rename the views (and then rename them back).  That sort of works but it means that every single drawing view (incl. detail and section) has to be renamed and renamed back to verify that the changes in the part/assembly show up on the drawing.  It really is strange, and no one here has been able to figure it out.  any ideas?thanksGreg

Please check the image and suggest me with the solution like how can i reduce the length of the weld symbol leader. ThankyouRamaniedharan R

Hello,   CREO allows symbol CZ (Common/Combinated Zone) in tolerance box:     But it doesn't recognize SZ (Single/Separated Zone) symbol:     Both are in ISO 5458:2018 specification.    How can it be fixed please?   Thank you

Hello All!I'm trying to use ModelCheck (with Creo 8.0.5.0), but all it does is just these messages:ModelCHECK - Unable to determine loadpt directoryModelCHECK is disabled. What I've checked / set: - ModelCheck component is installed- config.pro contains both "modelcheck_enabled (yes)" and "modelcheck_dir"- "mcdir" env. variable added- I use Creo in English, but I also tried the lang=c env. variable- the custom ModelCheck directory contains the "config" folder What (else) must be done to make the ModelCheck work?Thank you in advance!

Is there a quick and dirty way to create a cone in sheetmetal that consists of multiple bends (also called a frutstum)? My supplier of sheetmetal parts does not support rolling sheetmetal but bending is no problem. I cant find it which to me seems strange as this would be a simple but effective function?!      

Hi,In Creo parametric if I change unit mm to inch in the part file after that if I check that detailing file some view have been distorted, section arrow becomes big and some views are missing.

Hello sir , I need EMX 9 for my creo 3.0 I can't upgrade. But as I was searching online it is not available any where, so can you help me and send me link for EMX 9.0 Thanks  AAkash Jain
