Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Using Creo Parametric 7.0.9, is there a setting that the tabs of the combined views on the bottom of the page are ALWAYS shown? I've set the config.pro option display_combined_views to yes which is better because then they are easily accessible, BUT...When I for example click on "Edit dimensions" in a model, then the tabs are hidden, this is not a problem but what causes it is that the size of the window will get slightly larger and then the shown dimensions jump also a bit lower which causes that you just click next to the dimension you want to edit, VERY annoying..  (view in My Videos)

Hi there, I'm tring to develop a program with using Pro/Toolkit and it needs item IDs (not feature ID) for parts and detum planes.How can I see them with Creo Parametric?

good evening, I have a problem in closing the boubdary blend of this propeller. I'm trying in every way but I can't. Can anyone help me ?? Thanks

Hi all, I'm looking for best practices for including the end product assembly in a tooling assembly.  Tips on things like: Assembly mode:managing the tooling assembly combined with a (possibly) large end product assemblynot wanting the product assembly to affect the tooling BOM - simp reps? Include command?not wanting accidental changes to the product assembly while working on the tooling assembly - reference control?visual cues - product assembly distinguished from the tooling assembly Drawing mode:phantom lines for product assembly in certain views I'm the CAD admin, not a tool designer, but asking for a few of the designers in our group.  Any other considerations I might be missing? Thanks in advance! 

Hi I have a question, when you are into asm and you want open a drw of part you can with the macro or not? because if I try to open a drw of prt not open a prt but open the drw of asm   Thank You

When adding Integer 1 in unattached note in creo drawing, its printing as I, attached the Image.The same is working in my colleague's creo.Any configuration need to be done?Creo Version : 9.0.3

Is there a way to set a specific call out a specific UI file in a psf? I am encountering an issue where users click on the Live Simulation tab and it pulls a license for that feature. We have a limited number of them.  The psf is set up to not pull the license initially but that does not prevent the license being pulled in session after clicking on the tab. IMO Creo should not allow that license to be pull just because someone clicks on a tab but it does. I dont really want to turn off the tab on the ribbon as its annoying to have to go in and turn it back on when some actually wants to use it. Is there a way I can call out a specific ui file when starting creo either through the psf or other means?

As per the original post.    Hi there,   I'm having a similar issue where I renamed an uploaded part that I had checked out. I'm now getting the same error (Error: File name changed).   I tried updating the part, synchronizing and updating my workspace and nothing has fixed this... I get the following messages in the console when I did those actions:   Nothing is Out Of Date in Workspace.All the objects in session are up to date.Nothing to Synchronize from server side workspace.   Any idea what else could help?   Thanks!

Good morning everyone, I found that split body option is very atractive for a way of designing for my company and i would like to introduce it for other designers. Before i do that, i need to solve one problem and thats why im asking you for help. Problem:I have part with M10 holes in pattern and i want to divide this part in two separately with SPLIT BODY option. After dividing a part i use CREATE PART FROM BODY to save new part. Everything is ok until i open new part. new part is missing surfaces (for example - threads of M10 holes). I cannot find any solution for this problem. If anyone has idea how to copy it or at least, how to mark thread after split body divinding, i will be very grateful. FYI, i work in CREO 7. best regards,Szymon Biela

Hello, In Creo Manufacturing, I would like to use Auto-Drilling for counterbored screws. Does anyone have experience with how to input the hole dimension values into a Custom cycle, or alternatively, in which drilling cycle could I input these values from a table? Thank you in advance for your assistance. 

How do I implement something like the video linked below in Creo Parametric?Please explain in detail how to implement it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_IxaoZpBjk

Hello,After you added a normal assmbly 3D model as a "module variant" in a configurable module ;When you use "Variant builder" in a configurable product to select the normal assembly;Normally, Creo will use the exist assembly model to build the new main assembly model( product variant),But in some cases, the Creo always copy a new model to build the main assembly. Would any one know :How to control  "Variant builder" to copy a new one or use exist "module variant"  to build the new product variant? Thank you!

Hello, I am making an assembly with particularly small components. I am using the slider function to set a position and I need it to be more accurate than the 3 sig figs that are standard. I tried going into the settings to change it to 5 sig figs but it still auto rounds to 3 sig figs. Is there a setting that I am missing or a work around I can use? I am using CREO parametric 7.0

Hi Guys can we add custom symbol in Dimension Text?if any one knows pls let me know. regards Aravind 

I have been having this problem for two days now, as I have a drawing document which contains several drawings which I have to convert to PDF separately (Creo 7.10.0.0). I have tried several options, the first one is through print I have selected to print (blue image) but at the moment of checking the PDF seems too small, it appears white or just nothing, I have tried to change the scale, the zoom, format, size, Plot  and nothing works.  The other option was to go to document>save as PDF and it converts all the drawings into a single page. I don't have the option to choose the area to convert to PDF, it just automatically converts everything in one sheet in PDF. I have searched on youtube but I can't find a solution.I need to select the area to convert to PDFThanks in advance

Hey, I'm trying to make a simulation on Creo Flow Analysis and verify how far a particle is launched by colliding with a rotating part, similar to a fan. What I have tried so far was to make one domain with the fan and where the particles exists, made everything spin and released the particles in the middle, that created a motion but it doesn't match the real blade motion related to the particles.Then I've tried splitting the domain, but when I added the detached domain, as fluid domain and tested with solid domain too, the particles just ignored it, but affected the air motion (only in fluid domain, I've made it rotate faster and it interfered with the particles trajectory). So the problem is, how can I make a rotating object to collide with the particles without interfering the place where the particles are released? The particles may be released at any position above the rotating fan. There is a way to make particles interact with multiples domains?Ther

Hi,recently bought the printer mentioned. today i'm working with the software provided by the printer manufacturer for the sake of adding support & slicing etc. As a next step I would like to print the model directly trough Creo ( 11 ). did any of you have an experience with that ? any specific tips or suggestion ? Many thanks,

CREO 9.0 student version says license lost. I klick retry a warning comes up then then CREO crashes. I have tried doing a new install but nothing changes, I suspect there is something wrong with the license but can't get a new one.

This is driving me crazy. It seems to start happening at random, and it goes away randomly too. See the video. Im trying to rotate the part. The second I click on any of the rotate handles in the 3d dragger, the part moves and I cant control it anymore, meaning I keep clicking and it keeps moving, and I cant get it to rotate the way I want (or at all). Im on 8.0.8.0 Any idea how to make this go away? thx(view in My Videos) 

hi, I have a problem with the extrusion of this component. I created the snail through the boundary blend, now to create the straight part of the inlet I'm making an extrusion but I would like this not to intersect the blend so as to leave a void at this point: 

Hello, I have a multibody part (prt0001) that is a clam shell design containing two bodies. I want to create two drawings - one of one half of the part (Body 1), and one for the other half (Body 2). Any solutions that I haven't tried below would be much appreciated! Thank you in advance 🙂 I attached the part and drawing I am referencing below. I have some solutions, but none of them are exactly what I want:1. Create a new part that references the Body in prt0001. (This is less than ideal because you cannot bring in any dimensions from the original part. All dimensions must be manually placed, which is a lot of unnecessary work).2. Create two drawings for prt0001 containing both bodies. Hide all bodies you don't want to see when you are ready to export. (However, this stinks because the user needs to remember to hide other bodies, and then hide other bodies in the model. Far less than ideal, especially if you are working on both parts at one time).3. I tried using C

How do you move the location where the note starts in a mm drawing template?  In our inch drawing template the note starts where we want (in the upper left corner).  However, in our mm drawing template the note starts in the lower left corner.  It isn't hard to move, but we want it to start in the same place everytime. Thanks!

We use the PRO_MP_MASS parameter for our weight calculation and as a value on our drawing.To ensure everybody is executing the mass calculation the setting mass_property_calculate is set to report_outdateness_only (or check_upon_save). A warning For normal assemblies these settings are ok.But in assemblies where we use flexible component (e.g. a spring or a folded flexfoil) the mass properties of the assemblies keep outdated every time the assembly is opened. Even a bottom up mass calculation of all parts and finally the assembly will not help. Because after closing and re-open the assembly,  the assembly shows "outdated mass properties".How to solve, or block this?
