Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo 10 and had a Windows 10 update that wiped out a number of my settings, one of them being my weld symbols and dialog box in drawing mode. config.win is directing to the correct folder, but nothing is showing up. I have two pictures attached. One is the weld dialog box before the Windows update and the other is after along with my directory setting.

It takes me several attempts at times to right mouse click a balloon leader in order to re-attach or move it. And then at times it comes right up? I've experimented with selecting within different tabs like Annotation, Tools, or layout, as well as selecting closer to the arrow, but it doesn't seem to help? Again, sometimes I have no problem but more often than not I get the text style or convert to draft entities menu instead of edit attachment and arrow style menu that I am looking for. Forgot to mention I am in Creo 9.0.4.0 drawing.

Hi, how can I model texture for represent a metallic network?Best regards. Michele Barile 

Anyone found a way to change default model tolerances via a mapkey? You have to enter the edit dimension mode to be able to click on and change tolerances in graphics window. The model feature clicked will always be different. Even if I get into edit dimensions mode, a mapkey to just change default tolerances will not work. It won't click on default tolerances in the graphics window. Default tolerances are not listed in the parameters either.

Hello, I have a question while I was making a function related to printing in creo toolkit.We confirmed that the function has a ProPrintPCFOptionsGet that uses the pct file to retrieve the print settings. I think it's a very useful feature, but I thought I had to have a pcf file before I could use it.So I tried to create a function to create a pcf file first, but I couldn't see the proper function, so I had a hard time.Can you recommend a function that makes a pcf file? Or if you know how to make a function without using it, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know.Thank you.

When I activate parts in Creo 10.0.1.0 the transparency hides holes/oulines of other parts. Here is an example. None of the holes are shown, once I active the lower plate. Is there any way to change that?

I am using Creo Parametric 8.0.7.0. When Creo switches from one LAN to another after some gap in between, the license is lost and the popup comes up asking to switch to Offline mode. But the popup windows for the "License lost" and "Switch to offline" are overlapping and can't be moved. This prevents me from clicking on the License lost window and thus, I also can't click on the Offline/Online mode. These popups interfere by displaying on top of all other programs. The only way to remove that popup is to close Creo through Task Manager. How to make the popup windows movable so that I can interact with them?

Hi GuysHow can I generate G-Code for a 3D printer directly from a Creo model without relying on any third-party applications? Are there built-in tools or features within Creo that facilitate the creation of G-Code for 3D printing? I noticed that Creo has options for 3D printing, but it seems to prompt me to purchase a specific 3D printer.  

Where can I go to change the default template?

Last week we upgraded to Windchill 12 and Creo 9.0 with CreoView Adapter 9.1. When we submit a job to the CreoView, the model files (parts and assemblies) publish fine and benerate thumbnails that dhow in Windchill. The drawings do not publish a viewable or a thumbnail. When I open a drawing in CreoView, it only opens a blank page, no drawing. Models open fine and can be viewed and manipulated.

I want to use parameters for assigning material to parts in assembly. What is key difference between PTC_MASS_DENSITY and MP_DENSITY?. Which one would be correct to assign density using parameters. Additionally what is correct syntax to assign material to part using parameter. As when I use PTC_MASS_MATERIAL = Aluminum it displays error. 

Hi there, in the web.link "documentation" there is a function  boolean IsObjectCheckedOut (string WorkspaceName, string ObjectName)   within the "Class pfcServer" I tried  let active_ws = oSession.ListServers().Item(0).ActiveWorkspace; console.log (oSession.IsObjectCheckedOut(active_ws , CurModel.Filename));    But I only get "TypeError: oSession.IsObjectCheckedOut is not a function" How do I get the information, if an object is already checked out?   

I want to use negative integers in input as my coordinates of datum points are negative as well as positive. Is it possible to enter negative integer using Pro/Program.

Does anyone deliver a Model Compare Report to their customers? What about some type of automation that shows the "To/From Report"?   Lance      

I have wrote a ptgram that has no functionality only one class. And i can't register it in creo text directories are added protk.dat added but there is still an error.

Hello,I reinstalled Creo 6 recently. I didn't pay attention to my configuration options and the "save_file_iterations" configuration was set to yes. I modified my configuration options to no longer have the iteration for my next files and I understood that if my existing files have the iteration extension they will continue to have the iteration extension at each save.Hence my question: Is there a way of removing this iteration extension so that I can have "classic" files again?(I don't use Windchill).Thanks for your help.

In the default combined state of my part, I don't want the annotations to be present.  For those that come from a skeleton model, I can unassign them and they go away from the display. Problem is, upon regeneration, they come back as the systems re-assigns them to the combined active state.   I notice this auto-reassignment can be stopped by placing the source skeleton model into a state where the annotations are not shown.  I don't always remember to do this, so it becomes a bit of a pain in the neck to manage the display of annotations in my models.   I wonder if there is a config.pro setting that prevents this auto-addition of annotations.

I have created a chamfer on a part using the chamfer tool but when I show model annotations in the drawing the callout is simply "C .250". I would like it to show as "45° X .250". How do I make it show that way?      

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.3.0We are trying to run the Creo Plug-in for ModelCenter and we are getting an error.Here are the errors that I facedError: Cannot open Variable Selection Form.Reason: Could not start Creo.Error: System.Exception: Got Creo error code:PRO_TK_GENERAL_ERRORat Phoenix.ProePlugin.PTCCADTool.checkStatus(Int32statusMsg)at Phoenix.ProePlugIn.PTCCADTool.Connect()at Phoneix.CADUtils.CADSession.Connect()

Hello-  I'm looking for some guidance on an analysis that I setting up inside Creo Simulate.  I'm using some contact interfaces to allow rotation about a set of pins and it seems that Creo is ignoring these interfaces without warning, but it is evident in the results.  I've added a screen shot of the problem (see below). Rotation is permissible between the red pins and the light blue parts (hence the use of contact interfaces).  With a load applied in the vertical direction (down) on the brown component, the gray actuator reacts this load and keeps it in position. This has a similar setup using contact interfaces but Creo seems to calculate this properly in the results. Can anyone offer any insight on why Creo would be ignoring these interfaces?  Any solutions that would correct this? 

When I try to export parts as 3mf or stl, curves, especially circles tend to be quite low poly. I don't know if this is because I am doing someting wrong or if this is just the way it is. I've had to resort to exporting as step and converting it in another programme. I am using CREO Student Edition 7.0.9.

As you can see, the diameter 26 is the dimension from the modeling.Underneath that, the orange 0.51 is a straight line sketch I made and dimensioned.Now, even though it's the same straight line, one is 26 in diameter and one is 0.51.Why is this wrong??? (The drawing is scaled 1:1 to the geometry.) Sure, I know how to temporarily swap them, via the Dimension Text setting, as shown below, but I don't want to go through the following process every time I sketch... I'm wondering if there is a way to draw a sketch and have the resulting dimensions match the ones from the modeling.
