Creo+ and Creo Parametric

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

Hi,I recently faced this issue, that whenever i import a step file, it mostly imported as surface with geometry error. But same .step imported with solidworks, showing no error and imported as a clean 3D model. If I save that model into whatever files .iges, .stp and re import with creo, still facing same geometry errors like this.In Solidworks, i save the file as creo .prt file. That model is solid in creo. How and why the file works well with solidworks not with creo 7.0 ? This is not only for a single .step file but almost all of my .step models i have so many errors. 

 I have problem when running my mechanism analysis it says "The mechanism could not be assembled because some mechanism constraints weren't met". Is it because the joint/assembly isn't properly constraint or what ? Whats the easiest way to know if my parts are connected incorrectly? 

When I tried to save my playbacks for my mechanism in .pbk file, an information appears. Is it a licence issue? Thanks    

I have a drawing with multiple dashed line fonts. In Creo Parametric, the spacing of these line fonts changes dynamically as I zoom in and out so that they are always readable. When I publish the file to a DXF or DWG format, Creo appears to be assigning a linetype scale factor that I cannot control. When I import the resultant DWG file to AutoCAD, I can use the LTSCALE command to enter a new scale factor. I see when I do this that Creo has assigned the factor 2.585 for this particular drawing. Other drawings have their own scale factors applied, I assume based on the size of the drawing sheet (larger sheets get larger scale factors, resulting in wider spacing). Is there any way within Creo to pre-assign the scale so that we do not have to post-process it in AutoCAD?

Hi!I have a structure with profiled.I used "Prismatic Elements" to do a mesh but obtaing some warningThere are problems with "Detecting thi feature" that is very slowly. is it possible to fast it? Where is the problme Thank you      

Hi there, in Creo's bin folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 10.0.2.0\Parametric\bin ) there is a "parametric.bat", which executes @echo off "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 10.0.2.0\Parametric\bin\parametric.exe" "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 10.0.2.0\Parametric\bin\parametric.psf" %*  Is it possible to place that batch file and the corresponding "parametric.psf" anywhere else? e.g.C:\temp\%username%\custom-parametric.bat with @echo off "C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 10.0.2.0\Parametric\bin\parametric.exe" "C:\temp\%username%\custom-parametric.psf" %*  I tried it, but it did not worked so far.

We recently completed an upgrade from Creo 6 to Creo 10. One of the items I failed to test/verify was our custom symbols. After all, decades of using .sym files for symbols and all that. Now I can't see any of the .sym files.Drag and drop doesn't work (not a recognized file type). I can open the 'Define Symbols' menu through the annotate tab and I can edit symbols through what looks like the old interface. Saving them just iterates the .sym file and still doesn't allow me to use them on drawings. I've been searching, and will continue to search, for instructions on what to do. I'm just sure PTC would have had the foresight to provide with this change. /s What am I missing? Anyone have a quick link or easy fix for my predicament? Was it some config I scrubbed out during the upgrade?

I am tring to unbend with swept blend, does anyone know where is the problem?

Hello,I would like to add thickness to an imported surface in creo to make it a solid model. I couldn't do it with the Thicken command because the shape is too complex and some surfaces can't be offset so I built the inner surface with less offset. I managed to merge a model with an internal thickness of closed surfaces, but the solidify command won't do it because the surface connection is not watertight. In the surface connection analysis, it shows red in a few places and the maximum gap is 0,035 mm. My question is, how can I set it to ignore these small errors and do the solidify command?

HiI have creo 7 installed in my system. In it i am missing a set of icons in the quick access toolbar which is regularly needed for me. All my colleagues have those. i tried copying there confi.pro and other folders but nothing seemed to work. These are the icons that i need. Can anyone help?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.11.0Received a large step model from a customer and imported into Creo as a part and then assembled it into a Creo assembly. We need to create a mirror of the original part. It creates fine but is disappearing after creating it. The mirrored part will highlight when selected in the model tree but disappears again when unselected.

Hello, I am looking to create a parametric assembly using an assembly template which includes all the parts of the generic model of the assembly. Some parts will have to have relationships between them. The model must be configurable when creating a new assembly using the generic model template. However, when creating the assembly with the generic model, an error occurs and Créo tells me that this is not possible because the template includes components. Is there a solution without going to a family table?   Thanks in advance.   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate   Bonjour, je cherche à créer un assemblage paramétrique en utilisant un gabarit d'assemblage qui comporte toutes les pièce du modèle générique de l'assemblage. Certaines pièces devront avoir des relations entres elles. Le modèle doit être paramétrable lors de la création d'un nouvel assemblage en utilisant le gabarit du modèle générique.

I just upgraded to 10.0.2.0 yesterday, and I'm getting an Unhandled Exception error.  I don't know what the issue is.  It's probably clear to someone else from the error message, but non of this means anything to me. 

My saved orientations are not automatically fitted in in  the window. Always the Coordinate System is the center of the view and when model size chenge it is a problem that the model is not completly fit in.The zoom I do no know how to change this bahavior.

Hi all,I'm trying to make a custom note for the MBD annotation of a tapped hole pattern.The note contains the following text4X &SCREW_SIZE:FID_374 &THREAD_SERIES:FID_374 - &CLASS:FID_374 &Thread_Length:FID_374where FID_374 is indicating the hole with feature id 374.It is my intention to replace 4X with something like &HOLE_INSTANCE_COUNT.My problem is that the parameters THREAD_LENGTH and THREAD_DEPTH no longer seem to be available in PTC Creo 9.0.3.0 (although they are mentioned in the manuals).The hole pattern feature has apparently no parameters. So how do I access the parameter &HOLE_INSTANCE_COUNT?If I take a look at the original note&METRIC_SIZE &THREAD_SERIES - &THREAD_CLASS &STD_HOLE_TYPE &VAR&_THREAD &THREAD_DEPTH&NUMBER_SIZE DRILL ( &DIAMETER ) &VAR_DEPTH &DRILL_DEPTH &HOLE_INSTANCE_SPACE&HOLE_INSTANCE_HYPHEN_SYMBOL&HOLE_INSTANCE_LEFT_BRACKET&HOLE_INSTANCE_SPACE&HOLE_INSTANCE_COUNT&HOL

I have about ten years of experience from Solidworks. I started to used Creo Parametric about two weeks ago. Our company will buy own licence next January. I have the question for Creo and how I'm used to doing things in Solidworks.    I think we dont need Wildchill because all Creo files is for customers. Our customers moves the files to own Wildchill. I think we start to use files from the hard disk or cloudy space (Sharepoint or Google Drive).   Is there a possibilty to create document numbers without checking next number from Excel? We have the add on for Solidworks which gives a next document number by automatic without checking from Excel.
