Creo+ and Creo Parametric

With Creo 9 removing the deprecated Gtoldata API methods, it's not clear to me how to get all the same data points we were previously.It seems relatively clear how to replace the "has a specific symbol" methods like ProGtoldataDiameterGet() and ProGtoldataMatCondGet() by searching the value strings returned by ProGtolCompositeGet() for the strings returned by ProGtolSymbolStringGet(). However, I have no clue how I'm supposed to parse those value strings to get the same data provided by ProGtoldataPerUnitGet() and ProGtoldataProjZoneGet(). I would like specific instructions clarifying this for each return value of the deprecated methods.I also have many more specific questions the documentation didn't answer. Specifically:Is it true that ProGtolValueStringGet() returns the exact same string as the first value in the value array returned by ProGtolCompositeGet()?Is it true that the primary/secondary/tertiary strings returned by ProGtolDatumReferencesGet() are exactly the same as the firs

I'm looking for compatible versions of Visual studio to customize Creo Parametric 7.0.2.0 and confused that PTC articles are telling to use Visual Studio 2019 v142 but available versions under 2019 build are only 16 and above. Is it okay to use Microsoft visual studio 2019 v16 and above? Is it fine if I go for version 2022? 

I have not used the Thermal Mode of Creo Simulate and I'm struggling with this problem. I have a hot exhaust component that is heating a nearby pin joint and causing grease in the joint to leak out. There is a gap between the components of about 31mm so the only way for the exhaust to heat the pin joint is by convection and radiation. The exhaust is 300 degrees C and the ambient temperature is 0 degrees C. I want to determine how hot the pin joint gets after X amount of time, say 5-10 minutes. I don't know what the heat load is so I am trying to do this with prescribed temperature boundary conditions. I looked through the course viewer but didn't find anything that helped me with this problem. Is Creo Simulate even capable of doing this or do I need to go to Creo Flow Analysis? This is a simplified version of the model. I'm representing the exhaust with the yellow part. 

When I load one of the example project files, the tab will appear; however, any models of my own will not have the tab, and there is no option to make it visible either.I am launching Creo from the FloEFD executable in the start menu, and the Simcenter splash appears while Creo loads, so it is infact working. It just can't be used.   

CREO Version 7.0.4.0Win-10GPU: RTX A2000 8GBRAM: 24GB Within a newly created part-file, when I extrude a line or curve as a surface.- Upon completion the extrude is hidden- When I Un-hide the extrusion, it remains invisible on the part.What I've tried:- Reboot- Changing the following configuration settings (both in-session only, and added to config.pro)        - shade_surface_feat no        - style_surface_mesh_display on        - u3d_create_color_surfaces yes Not able to get surface models to show still. See video for creation steps. Thanks in advance for any ideas...(view in My Videos)

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.3.0We have a J-Link Applications in which we run a simple asynchronous mode.In one of the module, we load a part model and retrieve various part properties, in particular the Mass Properties.Everything ran smoothly up to Creo Parametric 5, but version 9, we are getting an "pfcExceptions.XToolkitGeneralError" when trying to read the Mass properties from the model.We could retrieve the Mass properties from the same model using Creo 3 and Creo 5.We have verified the following troubleshoot guidelines according to the documantation:- Make sure the environment variable PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE is set to full path to pro_comm_msg, including file name, including .exe on Windows.- Make sure the environment variable PRO_DIRECTORY is set to Creo Parametric installation directory.- Make sure name service () is running.Please let us know if any other information is required from our side.Best RegardsHere are the errors that I faced:pfcExceptions.XToolk

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.3.0I'm creating a parametric model with family table (end product will be a metal cast part). All basic features (revolves, extrudes, etc) scale appropriately with the values in the family table. However, when I added draft features, these features were failing in the dependent models (not failing in the generic model). It appears that draft features are losing their associativity to the relevant faces/edges/planes/etc, even when these features are still present in the failed model with the same name and number.

I am having issues with the following ModelCheck checks in my start file. I want to be sure that the CLASSIFICATION parameter is set to only one of the values set in the classification.txt file.

On a brand new install of Creo, I'm having an immediate issue with the embedded browser...The contents of all tabs in the embedded browser are shifted to the right so that a portion is cutoff. Resizing the window only changes the amount of white blank space to the left of the content. I don't have Windchill setup currently to see if it is affected as well.I've done some quick Community searches and haven't seen any similar issues posted in the past. I've also tried some config.pro modifications to see if I could fix it myself to no avail. Thanks.

Starting with Creo 7 PTC changed the start parts to have absolute tolerance instead of relative tolerance because of multibody. I am aware of the topics on this board discussing absolute vs relative. I am curious as to whether anyone has done any studies about whether this has impacts on large assembly management.

I have an Excel file that has merged cells. I don't want to pull the native file into Creo. I am importing these now as a .csv but when I do that I loose the merged cells.   Does anyone have a technique or a better way of doing this? I looked at creating my own tbl file but they are not straight text.

I have assemblies with lots of representations.  I often need to go back and add something but I only need it in one of the representations but it adds it to all the representations.  I have tried activating the specific representation and performing the addition but it still adds to all.  Then I have to go and edit all the other representations removing the newly added component which can waste a significant amount of time. Thanks!  

Hello,I'm using gamer keyboard for a long time.(for 18 keys programmables for my principals mapkeys).I wanted to test this device.I can't setup it.Chinese software seems not to work.Anybody has test and configure this ?Thanks a lot !   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.2.0What if the angle dimension does not display the suffix zero? I filled in 'ang_unit_trail_zero' and changed it to 'yes', but it didn't work. I tried searching for' draw_ang_unit_trail_zero 'but couldn't find it. I hope everyone can answer this question. Thank you.

Hi, the content of the parameter will translated depending on the Creo (9.0.3.0) language. Is it possible to use the English and German translation in two different parameters e.g. BUW_Name and BUW_Name_de? Thanks for your help. Ute      

I am using Creo Parametric 8.0 8.0.0.0Analysis fails after mesh is created and 99% of the FEA is completed of a fairly complex assembly. The same assembly has been successfully analysed in Creo Simulate.

Hello! I was creating one symbol file in which I need information extracted from one of the available notes in drawing but there is no method to define notes in variable text field. Right now, I am using parameters to define values. anybody knows how to define symbol using notes.   

Once i opened Creo Parametric 5.0.6.0. it showed the error below please help

Hello Alls,I've got a problem with Creo2.I have an assembly since a long time that manage several product versions (options).This is handled with family tables and geometry copies from skeleton parts.I've made a whole assembly with all instances.However, all parts are not updated even with "verify in family tables".Each time I save whole assy, Creo tell me that parts are not updated...I've send to manufacturing several times wrong parts that has not been updated... 😞I can't understand why parts are not update.For some parameters, it's ok.But for Following skeleton and geometry copy, sometimes not.I also have Creo 9 (aax...) but not sure this will resolve anything...Perhaps a problem in my method ?Thanks for any advice...

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.2.0When I create an assembly parameter table on a drawing file, such as BOM, there is no & displayed before the parameters, and the table does not respond after importing the assembly. Assembly parameters only take effect when I create an assembly parameter table on the format file and create a drawing file using that format template. I would like to know how to directly create assembly parameters on the drawing file. Thank you.

Hi all, i have been trying to create a domed surface from this flat surface. I need to maintain the outside shape & draw the surface up towards the centre about 5mm up ideally with a single arc. The outside profile cannot lift off the datum on which it sits. The flat surface does not have to be used, i just figured there might be some way of pulling/dragging or distorting it using warp or free form surface manipulation but i have not managed to, thus far. I have tried boundary blend too but cannot achieve the flawless surface i require. Any ideas? John 

do you know how i can reduce the Stress here with CROE (due the singularity) ?    

I am developing a project in JAVA OTK PTC Creo. I want to add data reading from Excel to the application. For this I am using POI 5.2.3 (xmlBean 5.1.1). Debug showed that the problem is in some resource, but this resource is in xmlBean, I have shuffled this resource everywhere, but no effect. For 36 hours I've been looking for a way out and I can't find it.SRCLocale.setDefault(new Locale("en", "US")); XSSFWorkbook workBook = new XSSFWorkbook(inp); <-- there isErrorjava.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.regex.message, locale en_US     

We regularly use image files on Creo drawings, we import them from the downloads folder. When we check in the file in Windchill, it loses the image because it is on the client machine. Is there a way to import a image file into a workspace so it will check in with the drawing?
