Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM130Good morning,I want to remove the hatching around a rib.

I have a problem about exporting my model into .pvz file. However when i attempt to export, they got an error that generates traceback.log file.You can see some attempts that i tried;- Updating graphic card driver- Assigning a parameter which enable_opengl_fbo no

Hey there, I am experiencing family table error as the verify instances options is not enabled. Is there any easy way to fix them quickly or what creo tries to communicate about it? Please have a look at the attachment.

I have an AutoCad drawing and I would like to create 3d part in Creo. What is the best way to preform this operation.Thanks

- Creo7 - Hey, I have been stuck trying to create a parameter for this instance.I have a UNITS parameter column with predefined parameter properties aka "values" listI then have a PURCHASE parameter column which also has predefined parameter properties aka "values" list. The only connection I want, is that when the UNITS value is set to "REF", I then want the PURCHASE column to display a "-" (aka dash) Placing the following string is the closest I've got so far...If UNITS="REF"PURCHASE="-"ENDIF But this appears to just be a check and notifies me when they are off.I just want to be able to use my value drop down on the UNITS or PURCHASE parameter freely with the exception that when I select "Ref" in the UNITS column, the PURCHASE column automatically switches to "-" This seems achievable right? If it helps, my UNIT values are just: EA,  REF,  PKG,  X and the PURCHASE VALUES ARE: N/A,   X,   - Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! I'm trying to model a cable that is warping in a cylinder. Practically I have 2 discs with different diameters with cables connected to each side of the disc.  When I start rotating the discs, the cable will start warping to the cylinder (without the cylinder in the middle they will all converge to a point). I was able to construct a model where I have the 2 cables tangent to the cylinder, but now I'm having troubles to design the curve wrapped into the cylindrical surface. When I try to connect the two segments, I can't place the curve on the surface, since Creo is making me select just half of that. Is there any way I can place a curve on a cylindrical surface for more than 180°? 

When initially bringing a part into an assembly using "main Window" mode, but prior to placing the part, can you change the default incoming position relative to the assembly, maybe there is a config setting that allows the new part to appear in the current window? Why am I asking - On large assemblies, the new incoming part enters the assembly model very far from where I want to place it (way off screen). it takes a lot of mouse work to drag it over to where it needs to be placed. Why am I not using the "Separate Window" mode in assembly? Because the separate window mode is quirky and difficult to use (parts almost always end up upside down or end up being unassembleable forcing one to use the main-window mode.   Thanks!

I'm using Creo 7. I want to add a note with the part number in a drawing.I use the following note when I insert the view of a new part in a multi parts drawing: &PARTNUMBERSCALA &scale The &scale refers to the general scale of the view.I saved the note in the note folder and when I place the first view of a new component I add a note and load the saved text from "Note from file":In this assembly I added many parts (they are for a welded carpentery):If I want to change the scale of a component, I have to select the component from the above list, then change the scale, then select and go back again to the main assembly.But if I place the view and I change the scale in the view options, it allows me to change the scale of the view in a fastest way:Creo adds a note with the view scale.I tried to add the part number to this note loading a saved note but it doesn't works.Only way is to add the text directly, but this is uncomfortable.I can add a note with an offset

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.0.0Have now installed Paramatric 10.0.1.0 on 3 workstations and the program opens to the Splash screen briefly but then crashes on each one - all 3 machines have the exact same issue. Nothing in the Windows Event Logs to suggest what the problem might be. Can you help me with this ASAP please?

I am using Creo 9.0 and the Welding Application. I have an assembly which I have put solid fillet welds into, and I utilize the automatically generated weld symbol annotation elements to put the weld symbols on the assembly drawing.For solid welds, it appears that the leader of the weld symbol defaults to attaching to one of the edges on either end of the diagonal of the weld solid. In the model,I am able to click on the weld symbol and edit the leader attachment to be on the edge that follows the root of the weld. This is so that when it appears in the drawing, the leader can point to the middle of a weld rather than one of the ends. i.e.:This would not be a problem except that when I edit the order or add fillet weld features between the others (some of the weld features become suppressed through the Insert Here functionality), the attachment is reset to the default on the edge.Is there a way to somehow set the default attachment of the leader to be on the root edge rather than on an

HelloIn our Creo (Creo Parametrics 8.0) 3D environment, the text size of surface symbol cannot be changed.If I open the text style menu for the surface symbol, the value is set by 13.000272.Now I can insert a new value, force Apply or OK, but the size does not change.If I open afterwards again the text style menu, the 13.000272 is back again in the cell.Does any body have a hint how to change it after creation of the symbol?The surface symbol is applied by the use of the Annotation, Surface Finish feature. Here I find as well this value for the Height 13.000272. Thank you in advance for inputs.PB 

Hi everyone On the way of defining our method for MBD, I'm adjusting our model properties file.Now I'm looking for a way to make the text_thickness depending on the text_height and on the type of thickness as Bold.So far I can drive the text_thickness by a fixed value, but this is not what I prefer. In a zoomed in situation in 3D model even a small  value might be too fat, and the thickness cannot be adjusted for every zooming view separately.I'm looking for something which works as the thickness type "Bold" or "not Bold" and which stays in relation to the text_height.Does anybody have a hint? Thank's for help!

Can I use Qt to customizate Creo parametric UI, or can I use some outside pragrams to invoke toolkit api to controll creo (spawn is too slow).I don't think it is a good idea to use MFC dialog in today's developing. It's a bit outdated and hard to build complex page or platform. Can I create a simple embedded http server in Creo, maybe I can send http request to remote control? Hope your suggestion.   

Hello guys. I'm sorry to ask such a dumb question, but I'm absolutely stumped on it. And it's REALLY dumb. The attached model is a simple revolve of a 25 mm wide tire profile with a 700 mm radius out to the rim. (Yes, it's not realistic, but this problem happens even if I reduce the radius to 400 or 50 or whatever.) The revolve feature ends up all chunky, instead of smooth. If I reduce the radius to 50 mm, the inside of the feature ends up all chunky instead. I have changed the model accuracy both up and down and nothing ever changes. Thank you for advice on how to get back to the regular, smooth revolves that I know and love. Edited to add:OK, I think I see what's happening. Tourus-shaped revolves have this, but cylinder shaped ones do not. With this sketch: I get this revolve, showing both the nice smooth edges I was expected, and the blocky edge (on the torus in the middle).  

I am designing a linkage system and want to investigate its force output while some of its parts geometry vary, e.g. lengths, angles etc.I seek to optimize the mechanism over its entire range of motion.After I run a Motion Analysis in the Analysis tab, based on an existing Mechanism Analysis performed in a step before, I choose to create, as output, new Series Parameters for some of the parameters I am investigating.But I cannot find a way where I can use these newly created Motion Analysis Series Parameters in the Sensitivity, Feasibility or Multi-Objective Optimization. Although I do see the series parameters in the stored Parameters within the resulting Analysis feature. Within these tools all parameters I see are from MDO and are discrete ones, like min_parameter or max_parameter, and this does not help in my case. Is it possible to optimize an entire series parameter within Creo Behavior (like an arbitrary polynomial curve function linear or quadratic whatever e.g. y(x)=

I have installed creo distributed batch and tried to convert my creo part files to STEP format, but after the 10th part file conversion to STEP the process becomes very very slow.Also the pc runs slowly while the distributed batch is running in the background. Can anyone help me know what is the issue here? I am using windows 7 and 6gb ram pc. Also i have been using the standalone mode.

Hello,   is it possible to measure the lever force over time in Mechnism dynamics?I have a simple lever mounted in the middle. On one side it is moved with a hydraulic cylinder.I know the displacement and the force in the cylinder. I would like to define these parameters. The vertical force that acts on the other side of the lever, I would like to show over the cylinder length or the time. Is this possible? Unfortunately I did not find anything in the help.   GreetingsMorian

When exporting a Creo 8 drawing to DXF format, the DXF preview shows random text superimposed over dimension text.  This extra text carries over to the DXF file.  Attached is a screenshot of the DXF file in AutoCAD 2022.  {ftxt is not supposed to be there.  Is this a bug with Creo 8 or is there a way to fix this? Dimension Text:.720 {1:@+.728@#}{2:@-.712@#}{3:@- @#}[18.3 {5:@+18.5@#}{6:@-18.1@#}{7:@- @#}]MDF FINISHED@O THICKNESSSPECIFICATION  

Configuring Creo 8.0.8.0 along with IPEM 13.0.3. I'm using a mapped network drive (eg Y:\start_models) to store our start files for all users to access. The line is set properly in the config.pro file & when I launch IPEM/Creo the logs say it read the config.pro, but when I start a new file I'm still getting the default OOTB start files in the File New dialog.Anyone else experienced that?Thanks      

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.3.0When I merge two quilts together it is difficult to distinguish the surfaces and which parts will be cut and which parts will be left.There used to be a config option in proengineer that helped with the preview of the merged surfaces in that it showed exactly what was going to be cut away and what was left.Does any body know how to do this in version 9.0?

Hi All, We added some leader notes in a drawing that we were working on. When we open the drawing in the CREO Parametric instance we worked on, they are oriented to the right.If we open it on another users CREO Parametric instance, they are oriented to the left. If there a CREO Parametric Setting that affects this or can cause this behaviour?
