Creo+ and Creo Parametric

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!   

I'm trying to make a sheet metal part with some bent flanges, but the miter cut option in the "Flat" tool doesn't work on one of my corners, as shown in the attached image. Any idea why the left corner fails but the right corner works? Creo 8 and Creo 9.         

We are currently on Creo 4 and Windchill (Intralink) 8.  If I do a ptcstatus.bat I see 15 Intralink 8 licenses available.  Unfortunately, we need about 25 until we get ourselves upgraded to Creo 8 or 10 and Windchill 12 later this year.  We have purchased numerous licenses of Windchill 12 but they're just sitting there, waiting for implementation.  It would be great if we could temporarily transfer those to Intralink 8 licenses for a short period of time. Is there something we could do now w/ PTC or are we stuck until we upgrade? Thanks.. 

Hello Team,please find the below image, How to edit the given locked parameter.     

Hi all,I have the situation that after creating and deleting a bundle I am left with new cable segments (one in each cable where the budle previously was), which leaves me with three segments per cable.The segmentation sometimes leads to unwanted effects when moving location points.The use case is to lengthen or shorten the bundle sleeve. This creates new segments each time.Is there a way to go back to the original state (one segment, or join segments into one?

Hi,  Is it possible to rotate the text for angle dimenions call out? please see attached example.i would like the orientation of the text to be on the same side of the dimension line, rather than opposite as shown 

Is it possible to customize the default hole notes of holes (all types) in Creo Drawings?  

A current design needs a counterbore clearance for a socket wrench. I entered the value and then switched from close fit to free fit. The counterbore changed back to the standard diameter. Having manually entered this, it shouldn't change. I am glad I caught it. Here is a product suggestion filled out about this:   https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Leave-counterbore-diameter-when-changing-between-close-amp-free/idi-p/688124#M13688

Hi, In some of our assemblies we use varying lengths of the same item, defined in a family table. We have been able to drive a parameter by the length of the instances no problem, and this places the different lengths of the items as separate lines in the BOM as desired. However, we would like to have a separate table which shows the total required length of that item. For example if we use two 100mm and one 200m strip of the same tape we require a table to display the part number for the tape and the total length of 400mm. In some assemblies we use also use multiple kinds of tape which we would like to display all in one table. Is there a way to combine parameters between parts with the same name and description and display as a single item in a table?  thanks    

I am in the process of testing a Stream Deck XL for improvements in office automation. A large ECO needs a note added. I put the text in Stream Deck so that when I open the text dialogue box it would enter the text.   Here is the text:   Here is what I end up with in Creo.     Is this a font issue or something else? If I copy and paste it from another drawing, or even from the text in the stream deck it works.     Thanks, Dale

Hi......       Anyone pls help  This is my simple sketch to make hole, and the sketch presented on planeFirst image   After i click extrude its shows to select body. But actually its a single body part.    Any how i select all body to remove material. But in my result u can see that my total bottom side part is got deleted but there a only one round closed sketch is presented in my sketch for remove material.     

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM140Creo Traceback log error- it can happen in 10 seconds or 10 minutes just by zooming or a rotation of the assembly.Please find the attached snapshot of the error.Please do assist the user "jean-jacques.cote@carrier.com" for resolving the issue- We are part of the admin team.

Hello,I've buy Stream Deck XL.Very fine for my mapkeys and folders, sub-folders.I highly recommend it !Even if it's made for video streaming, I can program all my Creo Mapkeys 😉I save a lot of time !Each key can have a picture and a text.It's ok for my text, but I'm wondering if Creo icons could be finds in Creo folders or somewhere.For exemple display planes... create new assembly...Thanks   

just checking for double posts

Attempting to measure total distance to laser cut this piece of sheetmetal.   Followed directions in another post here about unbending and then creating a cross section thru the thickness and then a datum curve thru that section.  Upon creation of the datum curve it wants to bend back the form so I can't get the curve to go thru the flat.  It's too tedious to measure each length of entity to burn picking them individually. I can't be the first one to have this issue.  I'm in Creo 4 if it matters. Thanks   

Hello everybody,I experienced something weird with Creo 7.0.8.0 and Windchill 12.0.2.1 : When I save and upload a CAD, if I am quick enough to create a new part while the upload is running, Creo crashes with a fatal error.This problem is easily reproducible (only need to be fast). Any idea what is the cause of this issue? Is there any way to tell Creo and/or Windchill not to start a download (in this case, the startpart) while another server operation is running (in this cas uploading a CAD) Thank you in advance

Hello all, I am trying to use a orthotophic thermal material in Creo flow (v.7.0.8), but whenever I try to load the material from the main model I recieve the error: "thermal conductivity or capacity for the following materials is zero: Material name". They are of course not zero. If I change to isotrophic type it works without an issue. Can anyone tell me how to work around this? The only way I can think of doing this is by a vertical series of isotrophic thin layers to approximate the orthotrophic properties. Thanks in advance,   

Hi, I'm testing/evaluating the generative design extension in Creo 9.0 for our company. While it seems to work really well, I have issues generating a model out of it and related issues pushing it to Creo Simulate for detailed analysis. When generating the geometry part, when it kind of works, the program creates small edges and or surfaces that may be free floating, not connected along all its edges, same goes for vertices. This has happened on several parts now and furthermore, when the part is generated without errors, and I try to push it to Creo Simulate for further detailed structural analysis, more miniscule surface, edge or vertex errors are found, which prevents further analysis. Anyone experiencing similar issues and have functioning workarounds for it?
