Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.6.0im trying to export an emn from a product when i export the file (open with notepad) ,in the drilled_holes it indicate MCAD---> when our layout receive the emn file they dont see the hole that i createas my colleague try exporting the emn for me,it does not show MCAD(open with notepad)---> when our layout receive the emn file they can see the hole that i create can you please help on this partThanks

Hey everyone,I have searched through some of the discussion but I don't really understand the code that has been thrown around. I have three map keys set up in my config file. The first is ft and that opens my family table. The second is od and that opens my drawing and gives me a front cross section view, a right view, and then an iso view in the top right corner, I then pause to pick my instance and fill is my prompts such as details, date, drawn, by, part number, etc. I then use d to open the dimension tool and dimension the drawing. My question is how to I get my drawing file to open and be saved as the same name as the model file through my map keys so I don't have to go in and rename every drawing that I do? I tried to follow some peoples codes and put them in my map key code but then everything messed up. I also would like to get my drawing number box in the title block to be the same name as what the drawing and model are named. I'll attach a copy of the map key code I am runni

Please suggest the methods to clear the body warnings in GD and its not producing the desired results

where i can get the VBAPI or guideline for the creo view 

Hello Team,I know using this option to remove file history.(PURGE_HISTORY_ON_SAVE_COPY  = YES)induvial drawing and part save a copy is not an issue.But  along with drawing how to remove the file history in model?   

I am using Creo Simulate Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0We are facing issues for non-Linear cases for structural Simulation for Mechanical Bus Bar Part. During simulation for initial mesh of flexible limit size of 5mm, its working properly, when we keep for simulation run with constraint the Nonlinear iteration is not Converging. we tried multiple ways of applying Boundary conditions. we are getting error every time. Simulation convergence plot is running fine 2 passes, after we get error message as " Run completed with Fatal error". we also try to change number of steps with minimum and maximum steps. in both cases we unable find results and getting same error message. Please assist us for solving the above issue.Here are the errors that I faced"The Non-linear iteration did not converge"." Run completed with Fatal error."

Hi,In Creo 4.0, is there any way to change/show the quantity of items (not bulk items) as "REF" or "AR" in BOM which is having multiple assemblies?I could be able to change the values in BOM with single assembly (using relations - "rpt.rel.<User Defined>")But for multiple assemblies BOM which I created using "rpt.qty" & "Column Model/Rep" I am not able to change the qty values.If I use rpt.rel.<User Defined> parameter, then I am not able to add second assembly using "Column Model/Rep.Can someone please help on this question.Thank you!!   

Hi, As you see in the attachments, the thickness of the arrow line is so lean when export to pdf. How to increase that arrow line thickness? I need the arrow lines to be at least 70% thick as same as the drawing line.    

My Simulation doesn't work with mesh size 1mm but works with mesh size 2mm and 3mm without a problem... How can you explain or evaluate that?   thank you very much 😊   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate     meine Simulation funktioniert mit Mesch size 1mm nicht aber funktionniert mit Mesch size 2mm und 3mm ohne Probelm... Wie kann man das erklären bzw. bewerten ? vielne Dank 🙂  

As per the original post.    I don't understand PTC's choice of using the Front Plane.  If our Creator had hired them to model humans we would all have no face. Isn't the Right Plane the obvious choice if you are going to force anything?

In one of our assemblies made with AFX, the assembly file shows all objects as being solid models. When we go to the drawing, some of the components are showing as quilts. Red objects are shown as quilts, the rest are solids. What would cause only part of the objects to come into the drawing as quilts when they are solids in the assembly? We are on Creo 7.0.10.0. Design was done originally in Creo 4.

Hi,   When ProMdlnameRetrieve gets PRO_MDLFILE_DRAWING, depending on the environment, it takes a long time to get a return value other than PRO_TK_NO_ERROR. For example, in the case of PRO_TK_E_NOT_FOUND, if the PDM server is not active, the return result of ProMdlnameRetrieve takes less than 1 second.If the PDM server is enabled, it may take up to 2 minutes to return PRO_TK_E_NOT_FOUND. If anyone has had a similar issue to me, can anyone share a solution?   Thanks, Warm Regards SeonHo.CHA

Hi,   I'm encountering an issue with Creo7 NC that tap file computation is taking so long   Any possibility that this can be completely done backend while we continue working on Creo?   Through Queue manager, we are only able to compute CL file backend but not able to convert to G code   Thanks Phani

Guy's its been 5 to 10 years sense I have log-on to this website. I have no excuses..  I am using CREO 4 and have an assembly open.I have 2 parts within the assembly.I activated part number (2) from WITHIN the assembly.I copy a surface [from] PART 1 [to] PART 2.  The Surface in PART 1 is a quilt of which I only need a specific area.The surface is copied into PART 2. Good so far...The feature in the model tree has a glyph. It looks like 2 sheets of paper. good so far... In my model tree, I have selected in my Model Tree to show "FEATURE TYPE".The problem is when I try to use the FIND/SEARCH function for all "external copied" geometry. I get nothing. I tried numerous selections, only to get nothing.I need the FIND/SEARCH function to gather a list so we can work. The number 2 part (.prt) has 1158 features.  Below is a picture of my model tree. There are 2 features highlighted that are "Copied Geometry" from another part file - PART (1).  The goal is

Hi all, So I was looking to start customizing my workflow so I can make parts and drawings quicker. One way I wanted to do that was to start customizing my keyboard shortcuts. I am noticing in Creo Parametric 7.0 that you can't have any keyboard shortcuts that are single keyed or are a combination of a key and Shift? With all of the different tools in Creo that I could use shortcuts for, this seems arbitrarily limiting. I do have the option "enable_single_char_keybrd_short" enabled, but whenever I try to make a shortcut with a single key or a key+Shift I get the message "Invalid shortcut. Please use another key combination." So can you just not use single key shortcuts? What's the point of that config option? Any help is appreciated! Thank you        

Team,  I Would like to Create a ordinate dimensions automatically, after finding the flat view in  drawing... 1. code need to find out the Flat View is present or not2. need to create automatic ordinate dimensions for the view  Please help me to solve my problemplatform: CREO  4.0 M140 / toolkit C++        

Creating a new part by mirror in an assembly, but there is a missing option (or I can't find it).  In past versions, Pro/E, you had the option to include the datums.  I don't remember what the menu pick was called exactly, (you could choose "Reference", meaning dependent, and with or without datums), but the result was a new part, geometry only, and it included mirrored datum planes from the original.  That way you have something to use for alignment etc when you put the part in other places. In Creo 9, there is the option to mirror "Geometry with Features", but that is not dependent, so it won't update with the original.  Does anyone know how to mirror the Geometry and include the datums?  Or to make the "Geometry with Features" dependent?

Using Creo 9 and Windchill 12.0.2.7. I use linenumbers from Windchill that feed my drawingtable. No issues.Now I want to add a note, in my assembly, that reads the linenumber value. So sessionID gets involved.So I am struggling with FID_N and SessionID but I cannot get it to work.it works fine to read component parameter, but since a linenumber is an upstream assembly featire, I cannot get the correct the linenumber in my note. See .png attached.Is this possible? 

Is there a way in Creo 9.0.4.0 to turn the words back on along with the icons?   Is there a printout of the list of icons and what they mean?

Can someone please help and tell me how to calculate or find the values of " exponent " here (attached) ??Thanks a lot ...  

Hello,Is it possible to only display the annotations (mainly for dimensions) in the drawing tree for Creo Parametric 8.0.4.0 ?In the example below, I would like to only see what is in the "Annotations" without depending on their view. 

We have been suffering from an issue with saving files back to the network over VPN. While I accept the limitations of VPN there are some significant delays with Creo v8 (and also seen earlier) when saving into a folder that already contains many other files - the delay gets worse with the larger number of files in a folder. What is notable is that if we save a new or the same part to a new folder the time is greatly reduced. We have tried testing with a default config file and it made no difference.What is also notable is that the first time you first go to open a file from a folder with many files it also takes ages to iterate and display the files to browse.Saving larger files from other applications is much faster and we can transfer mb's in seconds - saving 600kb in Creo can take over a minute at times.I am open to suggestions as to how to resolve this?

Hello Simplified Representations aren't all that simplified. If you have an assembly with a lot of patterned parts, you have to arduously include and exclude them manually, one by one. And then when you make a drawing using those Simpreps, the BOM table changes. Styles are an order of magnitude simpler to handle, and less confusing. Plus you can set if they should be shaded, transparent, wireframe or whatever. I would very much prefer to assign a Style to a drawing view.
