Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi all, I haven't done detailed testing - this is just a hunch - but I am working on a "large" assembly and the opening / regeneration times are very long compared to what I am accustomed. One thing I want to remove from my list of suspects is whether having annotations attached at the assembly level will result in longer regeneration times. For example, would you expect an assembly that utilizes the following component (assembly of a table and 4 casters) to take less time to update if the 2 annotation dimensions were removed?

I want to create an aerofoil with ribs and spars like below. The curve that I have made doesn't allow me to extrude it, therefore I have to use the 'spline' tool to sketch over the points. However sketching over the points makes the aerofoil inaccurate. Is there any other way of doing it. I can't use the blend tool because I want to show the aerofoil in its individual parts like below.  Thanks very much. 

I use Creo Parametric 9.0 / folded metal sheet should be bent again I have to construct a folded sheet metal strip with a 90° bend. The folding (180° tab) of the sheet is no problem, but the bending of the folded sheet.  Are there any ideas?  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.8.0I was hoping to understand what Application Feature would be required for Generative Design. We have a user who has a very basic install and it is missing.

As per topic:   Good day, I realise this is an old thread, but I am getting the same, frustrating, problem with a model study I am running.  

Hi,   I am Dnyaneshwar Maid and working as Sr. CAD Engineer in Miba Engineering Center, Pune Maharashtra State, India. We are using Creo 7.0 along with Windchill PLM Version 12.1.2.0 database system.   In this year we have developed some macro/batch files for customization under Tools>>Auxiliary Applications>> option. These all customized batch files we have kept on common server which is located  in Europe so that we all (Indian and European or USA Colleagues) can use these batch files whenever needed. Now we are facing issue and these batch file's are not getting started in India and coming message that unable run the batch file.  When we contacted to developer he is saying that due low internet speed (low band width) these files are not getting run as these files are running from common server as mentioned above. We are having net speed of 200 Mbps and still developer saying to increase it to run batch files smoothly.   I want to ask you all if a

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.3.0Having succeeded in running the Java examples (Tools - Utilities - Auxiliary Applications says it is running), the examples do nothing? There is no difference in the ribbon, no indication that anything changed. Starting or stopping the examples through Tools - Utilities - Auxiliary Applications makes no difference.

We're  in the middle of WC12 and Creo 8 testing.  I was successful in removing the featured object status column from my workspace display.  Now I'd like to remove it from Creo File/Open dialog.  That column seems to take over everything and I've not found a way to remove it or move the column.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.0.0After opening an item using "file open" dialogue box and "type" pulldown to filter by type (e.g. drw, prt, asm), the new Creo 10 "quick access" bar within the "file open" dialogue box automatically "pins" the type selection so that the same file type filter is still active the next time the user uses "file open". This presents a problem when a drawing is being worked on. Previously, Ctrl-O ("file open" shortcut)/Enter keystroke sequence was a very rapid way to open the active model in the drawing, since the active model is the default value inserted by Creo in the "File Name" field. However since file type is now pinned to previous selection (e.g. drawing), "Invalid Extension" error occurs upon Ctrl-O/Enter keystroke sequence and the user must now use an additional mouse click to "deselect" the pinned selection before pressing enter. The user should have the option to pin or not to pin the "type" selection in order to reduce m

Hi all,im new to Creo. I have the student version of Creo Parametric 9.0. I send a screenshot, where you can see my problem. The diameter of the shown screw is 0.5118mm. In the tutorial which im learning with there is a diameter of 13mm for a M14x1 Screw. Is there im doing wrong? If so how can i change that diameter. I hope you guys can help me out. Sorry for my bad english.

I want to create some ribs for an aerofoil. I have created the ribs using the offset coordinate system which produces a curve. I can't seem to extrude the curve, therefore I tried using the spline tool to sketch over the coordinates, however the line is slightly off compared to the curve which is an issue as the shape needs to be accurate. Any idea how I could produce the ribs thanks. Below is a coordinate system I used.Thanks   

I'm making a piston mechanism in Creo Mechanism where I'm supposed to measure the piston's acceleration when it's 45 degrees from the y-axis, but the result gives me a percentual difference of 20% from the correct answer (-47000mm/s^2) What could I be doing wrong? 

How to customize symbols and add the data table for the customized symbols in Creo schematic 9.0

HiI'm a relatively new Creo user. As the title says, is it possible to group a selection of sketch elements within a sketch? Like the "Block" function in AutoCAD/Inventor/Solidworks. (image of the function in Inventor attached) If not, is there a workaround? Should I instead create separate sketches on the same plane? Thanks in advance for any tips.

Creo 7 I am looking for an automated way to create a cellular array of ribs and have run into what seems to be a limitation with trajectory rib functionality. The first pic below illustrates an example of what I want to create but I am not able to use the projection of the patterned hex curves in the sketch for a trajectory rib without manually selecting each hex.   I am able to generate a pattern of cells that "should" be available for use when defining a sketch for trajectory ribs. So far, I am not able to select the cell array with a pick box or intent reference selection. Am I missing something with sketcher selection or in the projection tool within sketcher?   Is there a better way to approach this from a modeling standpoint if I want it to be more automated? Using a fill pattern, I can generate the array from a single sketched hexagon and a few feature relations. It would be nice to leverage that and generate the ribs based on this pattern.   I need a way to selec

May I know what is the function of "Update Layer" in this tab? it is grayed out in every layer.Thanks 

Using Creo 8.0.Is there a way to change the color of the hole placement handles ? ( the symbols you drag to define XY placement of a hole on a selected surface). By default it is red, but is hard to see when superimposed on the selected placement surface that also turns red upon selection.See attached screenshot in where I refer to the symbol at the end of the striped red line.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM140In drawing sheet while creating linear dimension with reference of edge and bend axis dimension created but getting PRO_TK_INVALID_MATRIX error while using this api "PROANNOTATIONSHOW".when the drawing is active that time there is no error but when we open the drawing programmatically then getting errorHere are the errors that I facedPROANNOTATIONSHOW - PRO_TK_INVALID_MATRIX

I'm currently facing a peculiar issue in Creo and could use some advice. I've created a part with a specific feature - a hole cut out. The problem arises when I attempt to mirror this feature. While the mirroring process itself seems successful, the original hole cut out disappears.Has anyone encountered this issue before? What could be causing the original feature to vanish upon mirroring, and more importantly, how can it be resolved? Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your help!

Why does it take time to export PDF on Creo, i would like to know if there are other ways around this 

I have opened up a support ticket and PTC is still investigating but it doesn't appear that there is a way to change the annotation plane for annotations within a UDF.   Anyone doing MBD with UDFs? Are you aware of a work around for having the annotations placed on a different annotation plane? I know once it is placed you can right click on them and choose move to plane but I am hoping there is a better response.

I use a copy geometry to get planes from my skeleton. Now I have a lot of planes in my model. It makes it hard to find the plane that I need on the screen. I want to use layers to only show the planes that I want to use as references for my desired feature. But, when I try to select a plane from a copy geometry for creation of a layer, it selects all the planes from that copy geometry. Is there maybe a way to use just a selected few of the planes from a copy geometry in a layer? Thanks a lot for ideas and answers!

Hi, I am importing an aerofoil into Creo 8, I am following steps done by You-tube videos, however the aerofoil comes out like below.I am using the following aerofoil: Any tips would be appreciated thanks   

Hi, I am running a simulation with a measured load at one side, and applied load at another. For all intents and purposes, it is a non-symmetric see-saw, where I have a target load at one end, with a load (in this instance, a pressure value) applied to a pad at the other end. I will have 9 individual tests to complete (each test is at a different angle), so I was hoping to run a feasibility study to save myself the trial and error involved in guessing the input load multiple times until I get a close result. I have had a bit of a play around and created a parameter, which I then drove a load value with.  It seems to accept the input parameter (I can drive a static analysis from it) but when it comes to doing a study, I get the '!' of doom with no indication of the cause of failure. Screenshots of my parameter and study are below. Is what i am trying actually possible and if so, is there something obvious I am missing?  

Hi I am new here and was wondering if you could help?We have Creo 8.0 on a server with a 1G network.we have now upgraded to a 2.5G network.We are moving the drawing files to a QNAP  TS-h973AX  NAS with 32GB ram  and a 2.5G network connectionIt then connects to a QNAP 2.5G network unmanaged switchWhich then connects to 3 X 2.5G network computers with 12th gen i7 processors with 32GB RAM each using NVMe drives..Transfering files through file explorer gives us the 2.5G speed but when we try to open Creo 8.0 files the network only transfers files at 7Mbps to 13Mbps speed?Do we need to change anything  in the config file settings in Creo to speed up the opening of the drawings in Creo?note: we upgraded from pro e wildfire to Creo parametric 8.0Could it be that a software limitation has come across from the old wildfire program and is limiting the speed of Creo loading files? any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
