Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Similar issue here, if my internet drops and creo loses its license, it seems to hang for 3 or 4 seconds every minute or so thereafter, even if it finds the license again. Restarting creo "fixes" the issue, it's as if the license checking timer changes frequency once it's lost the license once in a session. Edit to add; we're on floating licences on an AWS server, but not connected via a VPN.    RE: post

This problem exists in several versions of Creo (e.g. 2 and 7). When I want to select a funtion in the scetcher, the cursor doesn't change unless I make a click in the second monitor. This problem happens quite often. Sometimes I cannot type in values unless I make an extra click in the second monitor. No support could help me until now. The only advice was to exchange my hardware.

I have been trying to delete a component from an assembly during some days, but everything, that i´ve tried, has failed.Yesterday, I found some information about "ExecuteFeatureOps", and I saw that it´s necessary to select "resolve_mode". However, everytime i´ve tried to select that configuration, an error message appears:"To use a deprecated config option, you will need to supply an authorization code with 'allow_deprecated_config'. Please see article CS260154 for more information." I don´t know how to resolve it, so I would appreciate if somebody could help me.Thanks in advance!  

I had created this simple part by using swept blend, but unable to generate the flat pattern. any suggestion to do so?

Hi All, I’m trying to get to grips with the OTK Java Free toolkit to create a fairly simple tool to just output the top level assemblies from an assembly as STEP files. However, I can’t even get the sample code from the Creo install to work, including the install test  -which randomly requires a deprecated config.pro option that pops up a warning about needing a code to enable it. Does anyone have some good tutorials on getting a simple OTK Java free (formerly J-Link) program to work. Even just a hello world example? Thanks in advance. 

I have an assembly file .I wish to create a New Simp rep in my assembly .Based on the component Id i wish to create a new simplified representaion using Jlink.Is this possible to create a Simp rep using Componenet ID in Jlink?Please help me solve this thread.Thanks in advance..

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.2.0Our company use Lemoine RTM to machining blocks, currently we are using creo 7.0 to design and export stp files to shop floor.it works fine when we load igs file in Lemoine RTM , but now we switch from igs file to stp file.stp file contains solid block model with 3D surface on top. usually we created a layer named 999 to keep 3D surfacethe solid block needs to be colored in grey(the only option we can do is select part and put grey color to ensure Lemoine shows grey), for stp file layer999 is disappeared in Lemoine RTM.I tried to remove all color in creo proe and export as stp file, it works but not what we want. hope we can solve this issue with your help, appreciate all.let me know if you need more detail about this issue,

I am a former high school educator (just resigned 2/3/23) and I am making the transition to an engineering firm. I had downloaded the trial version of Creo to brush up on my CAD skills but my trial is about to run out in 5 days. I got notice from my new employer that I will be working remotely for another couple of weeks. Is there a way to extend the trial version of Creo so that I can fill my time until they get my work issued laptop with Creo installed? Any help is a much appreciated!  

Any help to get my BOM to sort as expected would be appreciated.  I have the following  &asm.mbr.purchased Backward&asm.mbr.fabricated Backward&asm.mbr.part_number Forward but the part numbers are not going in order. CREO 7.0.6.0 

Hello,I use CREO 8.0 parametric for the creation of large assembly, more than 500 parts and the 2D drawing of these assemblies, not renderization and simulation.  I would like to know if AMD's latest GPUs, such as the RX 7900 XT, are compatible with CREO 8.0 parametric. Is it better, for my use, opt for a professional version, RTX Quadro A4000 instead or take a non-pro version such as the RTX 4070ti? Thank’s   

I’m relatively new to the option file generator (1 year). I’ve been using creo (pro engineer) for 25 years.I’m using #14 fadal VMC15 profile. I found that for a G18 (X-Z) plane certain G2 and G3 gcodes are mixed up when I export the tool paths.The rest of the gcode maintain the proper coordinate system direction. If I test the gcode with https://ncviewer.com/ the circles will show up upside downSo I’m looking for a setting that will swap G3 output for G2 output eventually switching the direction of the Y axis in the XZ plane (G18) I tried checking in/off the CIRCLE/cmd translation – among others with no avail. Any help/suggestion is appreciated. thank you! 

Hello, how do I prevent that pvagent.exe popup?Another user doen't get this but he has alos Creo installed, not just Creo View BRMichael 

hello everyone！My problem is that there are two components in an assembly , the component "A" has a square body, and the component "B" has a cylindrical quilt . Like the following picture.I want to use Creo Object TOOLKIT or TOOLKIT to use the quilt of component B as the cutting reference to create a curing feature in component A, and the cylindrical quilt of component B to cut the solid of component A.The final effect is as follows. I tried to fill the Solidify element tree with the pointer of quilt, and then use the "wfcWSolid_ptr" of component A creates the feature, but the creation failed because the solidify feature has no reference quilt. If anyone knows how to use B's quilt as a reference to create the curing feature, or how to successfully create the feature, please tell me the specific method, thank you very much！

I've searched everywhere for an example of this, and am coming up zeros. The only thing I've found is this article:  https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS148500... and it doesn't work at all. (The "session" object isn't even instantiated in the example).Here is what I'm doing: ' Dim statements ' connection stuff ...... Set oModelDescriptor = oModelDescriptorCreate.Create(ModelType, ModelName, Null) Set oModel = oSession.RetrieveModel(oModelDescriptor)...blah blah...' do some stuff All of that ^ works fine, as I can read/set parameters, etc. I can also read the current material with this: ' get material If oModel.Type = EpfcModelType.EpfcMDL_PART Then Set part = oModel Set material = part.CurrentMaterial .Cells(iRow, colOriginalMaterial).Value = material.Name End If But I'm not having any luck at all setting a new material. I'm trying something like this, but nadda (oModel is set earlier in the procedure): ' Set material Dim part As IpfcPart Dim material As IpfcMaterial

I'm trying to create 3d contacts with curves, created with the spline tool in sketch/extrude. Is there other ways to create curves that work with 3d contacts? I'm using Creo 7.0, so would that be available in newer versions? is there a different way to get the same properties of the 3d contact tool?  Any help is appreciated.   

Is there a way to get usable image data out of a .tx3 file using the Creo 8 object toolkit?  this proprietary image file type is not usable outside of Creo, so i'd like to be able to pull out RGB values and any bump information if possible... 

Hi everybody. To show the problem I have I'd need to upload the assembly. How can I do that? I'm trying to make a pipe connection between two parts but when I finish with the sweeping the tube stays as green-dotted lines    

When trying to start WildFire 4.0 I get the following error.How can I run WF4 against Creo license server?  

I work on a pretty big creo\windchill network. When our "librarian" updates a family table (say, adds a screw) on "the network", I have a "screw" from that family table in my assembly, I update my workspace and update in session, the screw(s) from that family table that I have in my assembly revert to the generic of the family table. The only way to get back the instance I have placed is to close everything that uses that family table, erase not displayed and reopen my assembly. Which sometimes is a pain, with bigger assemblies. This has happened for quite a while now. I am sure it is not this version of Creo or Windchill, it predates the current versions we are using. Maybe there is a setting we have that is not saving family tables correctly? Frustrating. Thanks for any help. --James Windchill: Release: 11.1 M020-CPS26Creo: 8.0.5.0

Is there a way to install creo 9 to 22 network pcs for students? I have the latest from https://www.ptc.com/en/products/education/free-software/k12-educator/thank-you  but it seems I would need to manually install this on all the pcs  

Hi,How do you automatically show model or assembly annotation feature note (General Notes) that won't be tied to a drawing view when creating new drawings?I basically want the note contained in the annotation shown in the image below to be automatically shown on the drawing format in the upper left corner as general notes when a user creates a new part or assembly drawing.  Currently you have to change to the annotate tab, expand the feature tree, pick the annotation note, right click and click show for every drawing that's created.Would there be a way to show this annotation at the format level or in a drawing template so that it's automatically shown when a new drawing created? Thanks for any help you can provide,Don A
