Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi Folks,I can't find the butt weld option in the welding application ribbon. Any idea where this would be?Thank you.

Hi,with Creo Parametric 12 have you ever seen prohibition sign from event manager staying at the bottom of the bar even if i've already check the issue from event management?thanks

Hello there,As you can see , i am trying build a simple full asynchronous mode of toolkit application to connect to a running creo session, later i will try to fetch the component details. But as off now i am stuck with this errors  , can anyone help me. 1) I am not sure if i have included correct libraries in project settings.2) stuck in these errors is there any manual to dive deep to study on full asynchronous mode 

PTC is adding AI capabilities into Creo. I wonder what capabilities you hope to see in a Creo NC AI integration? - speeds and feeds calculation  - tool creation based on part topology  - sequence creation  - optimize toolpath approach and exit  - reuse a machining strategy from prior  - check for errors and collision  - etc   Let me know in the comments 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.6.0I have a part 1 (single body .prt) in which I cut the volume of a part 2 (single body .prt) through a boolean operation.After having modified the part 2, I updated the part 1: the part 2 positionning into part 1 was modified, the part 2 is turned upside-down into part 1.How to (re)define the positionning of part 2 relatively to part 1?

Some industry specs tool short cuts in the annotations which may not translate well to the 3D annotation rules.  I'm wondering if some teams have already addressed these?  O-ring GrooveHydraulic PortsO-ring GrooveThe standard o-ring groove dimensions often to to a virtual sharp condition.   Regular o-rings have virtual sharps at the bottom and dovetail have virtual sharps at the top.    Do you use virtual geometry, or special notes, or convert the tolerances to a more GDT based notation?Example groove drawings (Source) Hydraulic PortsIn some of the hydraulic port standards, the dimensions have angles to virtual surfaces.  Do you just redraw to a coinvent real surface, or add virtual surfaces.   (When a standard port is used, we could just specify the Standard Spec)Example J1926 and ISO 6149-1 port images (Source) 

I am trying to set up a company hole table that everyone can use to better format hole notes on our drawings. I have it set up and working well but the one major annoyance is the &PATTERN_NO parameter. I want it included for when there is a pattern but when there is just one hole it displays "1X" Is there a way to add a condition that will not display that is the &PATTERN_NO is 1.Sample CALLOUT FORMAT: &PATTERN_NO X <CTRL-a>n<CTRL-b> &DIAMETER[.1] <CTRL-a>x<CTRL-b> &DRILL_DEPTH[.1] / &METRIC_SIZE &VAR_THREAD &THREAD_DEPTH[.1]Thanks,Josh

Tried harness part/assembly instance/generic. Always get empty report

Creo 11.0.2.0I've used "Options" "Window Settings" "Graphics Toolbar Setting" to place my Graphics Toolbar in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen. When switching between open windows, working in assemblies, etc, sometimes the software just "forgets" to put the graphics toolbar back in one assembly when I activate it.  I can switch to other parts, drawings and assemblies, and it appears in each window. When I go back to that particular window, it doesn't show.  I can't say for sure, but this seems to happen more after I go to assemble a part using the "Separate Window" Component Display option. My current only workaround to get it back is to close the window which has "forgot" the graphics toolbar, and reopen that file. Funky bug. Anyone else with experience on this?

Is it posible to create a Bom table like below?with repeat region? so its start filling left bellow corner. when it reaches the 7th row.then it jumps over to the second collum. Creo 9 

I have next to no surfacing experience.  I have a solid part that has a concave curved indent, made up of individual "surfaces" I guess you would call them.  Protruding from that set of surfaces is a recycle symbol that I need to edit, or, remove & replace.  My initial intent was to remove it, then extrude a different one, both using the "up to" reference and the quilt being that ref.  I selected the surrounding surfaces, then Copy & Pasted.  That gave me the quilt fine, but I think there are "holes" in it where the recycle symbol is.  I can't extrude to it from the front or back, it just fails.  Help me out...?  Something to fill the holes, or a different approach entirely?  I am at my wits end.

I'm not sure PTC understands the concept of a model. It’s supposed to represent reality in a simplified form — yet PTC simply ignores threads and doesn’t display them at all. A thread should be immediately noticeable, but in Creo I still have to search for them. It’s absurd. Please tell me there’s a solution that doesn’t involve wireframe graphics from the last millennium.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.5.0I created a PRT family table, where my variants are two features, which I named "A," "B," "C" (Feature 1) via "post-regeneration" relationships, and "D," "E," "F" (Feature 2).In some instances, feature 2 is suppressed, even though the "family table" displays "*" in the values ​​for feature 2, so "D," "E," "F." The table displayed in 2D inserts the generic values. (The 3D of the instance is correct, so feature 2 is suppressed.)How can I fix this?

Hello everyone,I am having problems with a mechanism analysis in Creo.I have a square sliding pin that moves along an axis using a prismatic joint.The pin is preloaded by a spring.An eccentric rotating disk (cam) pushes the pin upward, and the spring pushes it back when the cam rotates away.The disk does not rotate around its geometric center (offset axis).What I am trying to achieveI need to evaluate the required driving torque of the rotating disk during the mechanism analysis.What I have already tried3D surface-to-surface contact between cam and pinCam / curve follower definition instead of contactUnfortunately, both approaches fail during the mechanism analysis with a “simulation failed / analysis failed” error.Additional question (modeling):I also need to place 48 identical sliding pins into corresponding grooves/slots around the disk.Is there a way to automatically insert or pattern these pins without defining each pin manually in the mechanism?Creo version: 12.4.0.0 Any hel

Hello,I work in Creo Parametric 12.4.1I want to make my .drw more helpfull, need to automaticaly create Hyperlinks to drawing no from the table of content. I have an assembly with 100 component, in Table>Repeat Region, first cell i have parameter &asm.mbr.ptc_common_nameThis parameter fill for all the position the drawing number.It is posible to create links to the server of all this files (they are in PDF format) and keep the drw no in the cells?I found this topic, but didn't find any solution to do it in Creo.  https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Dynamic-Hyperlinks-in-drawing-and-as-result-updated/idi-p/456420

Why there is black shade always on the image i import / download? I always use .bmp files!\SEE ATTACH

STARTPARM is enabled and the parameters from the start file exist in the part, but ModelCHECK still flags them as missing.     

I am using Creo 12.4.2.0.  I have an engine model that was created in Autocad.  The base units are in inches.  When I import the .dwg, the units are correct.  As soon as I save the file with a new name (File --> Save As Copy), it always re-scales the model to mm.  It's not converting the units. it's multiplying all the inch dimensions by 25.4, and then saving the file as inches.  I have tried rescaling (Model --> Operations --> Rescale), but no matter what I try, the dimensions don't change or convert.  I have also tried to change the units from IPS to MKS, but I don't have the option to convert or interpret.  These options are grayed out. I misspoke in my initial post.  It's a .dwg file, not .dxf.  The forum will not allow me up upload this type of file.

With these Box, Lasso, and Trace selections that are new in Creo 11. Is it possible to turn these off? So it works similar to Creo 10 and below? I'm still dealing with selection issues in Creo 11. PTC is of no help, as they say the don't see this issue.  But myself and every other engineer here all see this. When selecting surfaces or edges..it takes 3 times longer to select now in Creo 11. Id like to narrow down its not something to do with this lasso, Box and Trace stuff added in Creo 11. (when we first started having problems) Can I turn these off? Thanks,Jay

Hi everyone,I am working in Creo Parametric using Pro/Toolkit (classic C API).I am trying to programmatically apply a HALF section to an existing drawing view using:ProDrawingView2DSectionSet()The plane selection is done interactively using ProSelect(), and the selection succeeds.Here is the relevant code:Questions:Does the section name (sec_name_out) need to already exist in the model before calling ProDrawingView2DSectionSet?For HALF sections, does the plane selection need to be from the model window rather than the drawing?Is there any additional requirement (like creating the section definition first) before applying a half section?Does the view need to be a specific type (e.g., general view only)?Manually, I can create the half section using the same reference plane without any issue. But programmatically it is not accepting the plane.Any guidance on the correct workflow for creating or assigning a HALF section via Toolkit would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.ProSelection* sel_a

Hi everyone,I recently submitted an idea to add a Convex Hull creation feature.   In geometry, a Convex Hull is the smallest convex shape that fully contains a given set of points or geometry. It can be imagined like a rubber band stretched around the outermost points. If you have ideas for how Convex Hull could be useful in your workflows, please comment on the idea and share your use cases. This will really help show the need for implementing it. And of course, I’d really appreciate it if you vote for the idea.Thanks a lot for the support!

Hi, in an assembly "A" I have a lot of this parts "B" (lets say 100). When I modify another subassembly "C" (or parts "D") of the assembly "A", It takes a lot of time to regenerate the 3D model "A", and in the left bottom of the screen it plot these messages"Relations have errors/warnings. Refer to the message log for the details or visit relation UI.A - assembly A - regeneration completed with 94 suppressed feature(s) or component(s).Part 'B' not changed since last regen".I think it is a tentative to regenerate parts that are not in checkout and takes a lot of time to do this tentative.How can I fix this problem? Thank you in advanced. Michele Barile

Hello everyone,CREO Parametric 11.0.2.0 here. I am attempting to superimpose my companies automation system onto a provided floorplan. I have converted the floorplan I got into a .drw. My most recent (fruitless) attempt involved creating a drawing with the model and perspective that I would like, and then copying and pasting that into the floorplan .drw. This fails every time because it identifies a mismatch in the units. I have attempted to change the units of the model before pasting into the floorplan to no avail, so I am not exactly sure what it is that I am missing. I am also not able to identify the units that the provided floorplan are in using the creo software, and when measured, it returns some nonsense number that indicates to me that it was scaled down before I got it... Ultimately there are several independent sections of our system that I would like to make this compilation out of, so whatever the solution is, it would be nice if it was easily repeatable.Thank you for you

I am trying to modify the crosshatching in a part drawing section.  After selecting the area, the  "edit hatching" menu appears, but is greyed out.  Any suggestions?

Hi,I’ve been trying to wrap my text around my part, but it isn’t working well. I also tried using Offset and Project, but what I really need is to make it work with the Wrap function.I’ve attached a file for reference.Thanks in advance
