Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am working on a model in Creo Parametric 8 Sheetmetal and having difficulty getting a feature to mirror correctly. The model is U-shaped and on one of the legs I have created 2 identical sketch forms. I then mirror the forms about a plane to the other leg. The upper form mirrors correctly, while the lower one does not. The form has an OD of 3.58 inches and when mirrored it comes out at 3.2 inches. I have tried re-drawing the feature and I have tried mirroring about a different plane. No matter what I do, nothing seems to work. Am I missing something here? This is the original sketch form: These are the form properties:  This is what happens when I mirror, one correct one wrong:  When I correct the form to make it work, you can see the OD of the form is inside the OD of the sketch: I would like to keep the design I have if possible, it's parametrically driven and if I manually create this form on both sides of the model I will have to have twice as many parameters

Hi, I would like to model a straight part for 3D/2D-documentation purposes but in reality the part would be assembled in a groove on an assembly and I would like the part geometry to follow a curve on the groove. The same part would be used twice in same assembly and in two different grooves which have different curves.My own thought was to make the part flexible and get it to follow sketched line on the groove but I can't figure out how to do that properly. Could you help to determine which would be the best way to achieve this.Attached image to hopefully clarify what I'm requesting. I'm using Creo 8. Thanks

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM150I tried renaming a part its model name changed but the common name remains the same.I tried to rename it using change in session as well as on disk but after saving the part and restarting the application I found the common name unchanged.

Hello everybody, I am trying to create a manufacturing flat harness drawing for supplier using cabling module. I have tens of wires and also splices in model. My expectation of drawing would be that it's clear and well arranged, but the wires are creating so many segments which are grouped together and it looks little messy.  My first idea was to use bundles, but because the splices are also in the design, it is not working properly.So my second idea was to hide all flat segments in drawing using layers, and use only geometry of network....this is so far good solution, but only thing is that the network is gray dotted line and I am not able to change it so standard black line. Anyone knows what to do in this situation? Worst case is that my drawing would be not so well arranged, but it could be also used for supplier definitely  I use Creo parametric 7

Dear All,   Currently by Using &asm.mbr.cparam.POS unable to use filter & Flat/Rec function in repeat region BOM.A solution is needed.   With regards,Thanoj Kumar V

Hi All, I wanted to share that when using the ProAnnotationshow API to create drawing dimensions and providing axis is as a reference, the status is displayed as 'pro_tk_invalid_matrix.' Has anyone else encountered this?please let me know, if anyone has the solution.Thank you

Da Boss came to me the other day and asked if I could make something that would function as a drawing tree for all our assembly drawings.  I thought about it, and said no, not like we're used to seeing, like the usual drawing tree or an "Org Chart" for those that have never seen a drawing tree.  BUT, I thought I might be able to do it in BOM form using a recursive repeat region.  I've never worked at a company that wanted to use a recursive BOM, so, this will be my first time playing with it, but, I figure it SHOULD be almost exactly like doing a regular BOM.  We want the drawing number, and the title, and "probably" quantities.   Anyone ever done anything like this?  Is there Creo 8 functionality for this I'm not aware of (last having formal training on Wildfire 5).  If not, this would be GREAT functionality to have.  Thoughts?

Hi all, I'm looking for a method to find all the copy geometries linked with a specific component even if defined in other components or assemblies.Is it possible? Thanks a lot. Regards,Roberto  

hi All is there a possiblity to extend this red marked drop down list with e.g. 1.5*Thickness? br     

How do turn on ''rename'' feature?

Hello community, Is it possible to move a feature (feature) to any position in the model tree using Excel VBA? E.g. the feature "Width" "Length" "Thickness" at the end of the model tree. What would be the procedure here with Creo 5.0?   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Hallo Community, ist es mit Excel VBA möglich, ein Feature (KE) an eine beliebige Position im Modellbaum zu verschieben ? Z.b. das Feature "Breite" "Laenge" "Dicke" an das Ende des Modellbaum. Wie wäre hier die Vorgehensweise mit Creo 5.0 ?    

 I am working on the design using the CREO student version, and my colleague is working with SOLIDWORKS. A colleague handed over the .sldprt file, and CREO says, 'Unsupported file version.'    In this case, is this a problem because it is a CREO student version? (The same problem is repeated for sldprt files that are readily available online.)

Hi All,I am preparing a general arrangement drawing of an assembly in which I need to show the reference drawing name of each part. so I am wondering if we can add them by using rept region.

We have one Workstation which is outdated but we have Wildfire license against this Host, so shall we install same license in new workstation.?

Hello, I need to download Flexnet admin to manage my Creo Schematics licenses where can I download the latest version for Windows server 2022

I am using Creo Parametric 6.0.6.0 Student. I have set up the config.pro file with all my preferences which includes metric units. When I open a model the units are Imperial but all my other preferences are correct. It's a bind having to remember to change it for every new part.Is there a fix?

I installed creo 10 some days ago and did some designs in that. later again I moved to creo 9, but after installing that I can't able to open the designs that I did in creo 10. Ps : I am using student version. please comment for any solutions ! When I open only I can see blank screen as shown in picture I attached.

Did you manage to get this working?Reference link   We are running into the same issue, with the added complexity that they've removed this functionality completely from Creo 10. So using a key to allow deprecated config option only temporarily solves the issue.

Is it possible to scale an imported part?

Hello,I would like to ask how to properly work in Creo parametrics 7.0.8.0 connected with PDMlink Windchill 12.0.2.12 .We work like that main assembly is composed from subassemblies. Subassemblies are composed only from manufactured parts, purchased "parts and assemblies". Purchased "assemblies" (let's say pneumatic cylinders) we use only because of mechanism.We have library of pneumatic cylinders in PDMlink Windchill. The moving part of pneumatic cylinder is set as slider with enabled regeneration value. When we use pneumatic cylinder in subassembly we set it as flexible with selection of the dimension. In PDMlink Windchill the state of the cylinder is set to released. To prevent users to change it.When subassembly is checked in, there is a possibility to Drag pneumatic cylinder with connected parts. When the move is performed we get yellow triangle with following messages. "Not checked out by you" and "Modified in session".  If I regenerate that subassembly, it changes to o

Maybe someone knows how to make engraving on cylindrical surface in assembly mode in Creo Parametric?This article (CS25807) describes how to make engraving in a part.I can't find information how to do this in assembly mode.In our production, quite often there is a situation when it is necessary to do engraving at the assembly stage.At the moment we do this using the Projection tool.

Greetings (New Creo User Here),   I am creating a simple U-shaped structure (see pic below) pinned at the large holes you see on the vertical channels (blue, one not shown to the left is a mirror image), connected to a front/back mirrored pair of horizontal channels (yellow) by 4 bolts at each end of the yellow beam. A mass is applied to the plate (red) resting on top of the yellow beams. This gives a total of two vertical channels, two horizontal channels, the plate, and 16 bolts (all identical).Colorized Components (1/2 of Structure)   I am using very stiff bolts with a much softer structural material (e.g., steel bolts with sheet aluminum), and am not worried about the bolts failing in tension. They really operate more like pins in this scenario (light or no preload), rather than the idealized "fastener" found in Analysis-->Refine Model-->Connections.I've done what was suggested by other authors for older versions in creating idealized point-to-point b

Hi everyone,normally in the skeleton model solid geometry is not used.Is this still the case with the advent of multi-body?Have any of you tried using solid geometry in the skeleton model?Do you think there are any advantages? Floryn 

When unsung Merge/Inheritance to merge a part file (raw material file) into another file (machined part file) I am getting failures with the scaling of the parts. This only happens when the files are made using different units of measurement i.e. the part file being merged is mm and the part file that is being worked on is inches.  What seems to be happening is a part made in metric being merged into an inch file has a scale that is 25.4 times the intended size because Creo isn't making the unit conversion and instead bring in the mm units unscaled into the inch file and vice-versa. This issue can somewhat go away when toggling between Merge/Inheritance but that will bring in the design tree which isn't ideal.  We cant make them the same units of measure since the prints need to be in there respective units for documentation/customer reasons.  Edit: using Creo 9Edit 2: When changing the units in either model to match the part end up working fine, so t
