Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Creo 8.0.1.0 version. I am looking for a way to automate every step in the generation of the mass report in Creo. Ideally an external script would communicate with Creo to obtain available workspaces which I then select along with the assembly file and Simple Rep I would like to chose. The script would then generate the mass report and then the user grabs the output.  I have a working Mapkey that does the mass report steps but the interrogation of the data in Creo to be used by an external script is something that I have not tried to do and have seen little to no documentation.      

Hello, I am trying to merge two quilts ( quilts are defined fully and are not merged prior). But I keep getting the regen error regardless of direction and sequence of quilts. When I compare it with original model, the arrow (highlighted in blue) is at the bottom of quilt instead on the side. Does this affect the merging of quilts? How can I change the location of arrows to the bottom of the quilt if that helps? Any other feedbacks are highly appreciated.   

Hi all!I have a question...Is possible to simulate a "reciprocating rack and pinion mechanism" usin Creo Mechanism?Something likek this Thanks in advanceStefano   

Hello.Currently, I'm trying to insert inside my Creo Mechanism Analysis the effects of lateral wind. For this I would like to use a force so I can easily turn on and off for each analysis.Would be nice to have it calculated using the cross-sectional area of the component multiplied by a constant Q (N/mm²).How can I make available this measure of area (mm²) to the User Defined variables list?  

Can anyone tell me how I can Export the parameter table in .xml format? I only have the option for .csv and .txt. I know you can export to .xml because I have done it before, but now the option is not available.    

we are using Creo 6.0.6.0 and Windchill 11.0 M030-CPS16seeing issues with server status on "locked files" - Creo server status shows "modified in session"issue with lost symbol - PTC_COMMON_NAME in component (part) relation TITLE=PTC_COMMON_NAMEassy feature info. shows lost symbolpart file info. shows no issues any ideas why this might be happeningthanks,Rich  

I was trying to unlock my Async  application then this msg shown. Command I use: protk_unlock.bat myapp.exe

HI,Is there a way i can add a watermark in creo drawing ? 

Can someone help me with the Regeneration Failure?   KE 239 interrupts group starting with KE 226    

After going through the different options in config.pro, the one option that keeps giving me issues is the "trail_dir" setting. I have tried setting it to $TEMP, AppData/Local/Temp, as well as other (non-read-write protected) directories, and no matter what directory I try it always keeps saving the trail files in the current working directory. I have tried this setting in both the config.pro file in Program Files/PTC/Creo/Common Files/text as well as my user directory, and neither of those seem to work either. This issue is has been a big headache for my team as we're trying to prevent our CAD directories from getting clogged up with these trail files, and it would be really nice to have them automatically created somewhere else. For reference, I'm using Creo version 9.0.0.0. Thanks! 

Hello members, I have an inexplicable phenomenon. My VBA tool runs perfectly on 4 computers, with one PC I get the message: Process Fails: Unknown error occurred. Error No: 48 Error: Error loading a DLL" The connection to Creo works, the message only appears when a procedure is called. Dim startLevel As New Cintseq Set gAllAsmbls = New Collection Set gUsedAsm = assemblyIn Call listSubAsmComponents(startLevel) '<-- here comes the error message Set collectEachAsblyComponentPath = gAllAsmbls" It's probably because of the Cintseq!? Other subs that don't have Cintseq run on Creo. Does anyone have any advice on this? --------------------------------------- Translated text from German to English using google translate.

I dont kwnow how create swept operation with this icon. Wich is the difference? 

For Creo, I want to know mathematical expression for converting windows coordinates to 3d coordinates if with respect to mouse click or vice versa.        

I do have a base parametric model, with this model i would like to generate so many models with out using manual Creo tools.All the possible existing parameter values i would like to change in a combinational form.Please help, any automation tool was exist.If not  to achive my requirment any automation script can be developed. Thanks and RegardsVishnu Ch      

Hello,   I've to upgrade creo to vb-api. This upgrade has to be done for many machines.   How can I upgrade creo for many machines without disturbing the users?              

When I add an overlay sheet or view, at the beginning , seems to work. after the check-in, if you close and erase not display, when you open again the drawing that contain the Overlay, the result is some DATUM with large rectangle, and this result also in the publication of Windchill.Only if I open in my session the source drawing and after I regenerate the target drawing, the problem will solve.But taking in to account that after the check-in the cad worker will retrieve only the target drawing, so the problem will reflect after in windchill.   

 We are licensing Creo on the server side, but some of our client PCs are on Creo 7.0 and others are on Creo 4.0. We are going to renew the licenses.I am concerned that there will be authentication problems if I set up one and the same license on the server side, since each client has a different Creo version. Could you please let me know? Best Regards,  

HI Team, Background work we have done for this, collected all the views and filtered the flat view by the part model used in the view. retrieved solid from the view, from solid collected number of surface and no of edges using surface visit and contour visit.and set the view for surface recognition For ProDimensionAutoOrdinateCreate(). also given Proselection surface_array and edge selection through Program. but not able to achieve dimensions even after conditions are specified for the surfaces and edges.We are getting one error while executing ProDimensionAutoOrdinateCreate() this function all. The error message and code reference given in message and warning box.  Exception thrown at 0x00007FFAF8BE36F9 (rtlcoremt.dll) in xtop.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000011D407BFFFC.If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued.Please find below the code referenceProSurface pSurface;ProDimension* dimensions;ProSelection *sel,

Hi Every one, My requirement is to create an irregular pattern of holes. I have 'X' and 'Y' dimensions of points where holes to be made and will create a family table of patterns.but, after creating table pattern the points are reversely plotted (-ve became positive and positive became -ve). I think it is taking relative position instead of absolute positions. I can reverse the signs to get the proper results but I have to use the exact values of 'X' and 'Y' dimensions. I have attached the snaps of the problem I am facing. please help.     

I am running CREO Parametric 7.0.4.0 on Windows 10.I would like to use the boolean cut function to match some mating geometry. I've watched a few videos on how its done and it seems rather simple.I was having issues so I created 2 cubes and a practice assembly, however when I try and select the geometry to be used as the cut, it will not let me select it. (view in My Videos) I do see a feedback message in the bottom left that states: "Reference cannot be uesd due to the scope setting of NONE for Environment."  I could not find an obvious setting in the config to make this adjustment to locally. Any ideas?

Hello - Sophos has gone rogue and is deleting trueSolid-x64.dllWe have the file whitelisted on the server, but all these clients have detached.Yes, I'm currently working with Sophos to address the client randomly detaching from EnpointCentral. However, I have 7 engineers without CREO and need a quick fix. Is there any way to run Creo 7.0.2.0  without trueSolid-x64.dll? (sophos is difficult to remove on remote clients as it requires booting to safe mode to disable tamper protection).for reference, the error Creo throws is and putting trueSolid-x64.dll back in play is immediately deleted by Sophos,which promptly pats itself on the back for doing such a good job.Thanks,Fred    

When importing AP242 STEP files into Creo Parametric 8.0.4.0, some driving dimensions are converted to NOTES and lose all PMI parameter data.  I need all driving dimension to retain PMI parameter values (dimension value, tolerance value and tolerance type, etc).Any suggestions on why some are converted to Notes and how to ensure all dimensions retain PMI parameter values?    

Hi,   With the announcement of Creo+ (which is getting me really excited for the future of CAD and PTC taking the lead) I'm wondering, how do the 2 products relate to each other?   We are using Creo Parametric with Windchill at the moment. Will moving to Creo+ at some point eliminate the need for Windchill?  And will the files and its features be compatible / exchangeable with one another?   Happy to see your answers,   Jeroen        

Is it possible to define a coordinate/position, so that this point is automatically selected within a sketch using mapkey? My objective is to update a curve (which already works with mapkey) and that curve is used in a sketch to extrude a part. When updating the curve you have to select the new one to replace the reference:  To prevent the user from selecting something that should not be selected, I'd like to use the mapkey to select the right curve in the sketch.  I'm using Creo 7 Thanks in advance!   

How can I select Quilt F160 from the model tree? I can't select Feature 160 from the graphics window. Any alternate ways to select the desired quilts? Thanks!
