Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello Mr Martin,   Yes with further study of trail files and basic programming, I could successfully extract and modify trail file for .prt import and .stp export for two part files.👍..I could also write a program in Basic to generate trail file. However, just one question is there -- ie how to program to incorporate this line- ~ Input `file_open` `Inputname` `xxxxxxxxxx` into trail file? Sharing trail file and basic program (in .txt format/I had written it in qbasic only, which has been converted to .txt here)  herewith.    Requesting for the solution,   Thanks in advance!

Hi All, I've recently started using Creo Parametric 9.0.1.0 and am getting to grips with the new model tree.  I'm working in a fairly large assembly, around 1800 lines in the BoM report It appears that when I expand all, it hangs for a looong time while it expands the model tree. Annoying, but fair enough given that it has got a lot of stuff to expand. When I collapse all, I get just the top level assembly icon at the top followed by a blank tree. Weird, but again fair enough. However the little grey arrow to expand/collapse the top level is then gone, so I can no longer expand the top level and start digging down into the structure, the only option is to expand all and have a model tree a million miles long again. I've discovered a workaround in writing this; if I click a part in the viewport and find it in the tree, creo expands the tree down to the level of that part, and the grey arrows appear again so I can fairly quickly collapse it back to a se

I have a plastic moulded part, in which a part will be installed by inserting over top portions which is having two pivot points. I have tried warp bend option in creo 8.0 which is bending the whole part. How can I define the bend pivot point and bending a particular portion of a single body component.

  I am still conducting survey analysis on screws. My basic idea about screws is that when installing parts that require maintenance, Bolt fastening is a reason to use it,   I think that it is due to the ease of installation and the simplicity of removal. Against screw loosening which is the point of failure of the screw.Ｉ assumed that we thought that we should use various countermeasures appropriately. According to the result of analyzing the screw trouble,  I speculated that a problem occurred due to an appropriate method being not applied. One of the reasons is that some troubles are not correctly analyzed.   So recently, I asked my Japanese college teacher about my doubts of screws. The summary of the answer of the teacher: Under the operation of the external force about the screw, if the joint surface doesn't cause a separation and a slip, the looseness doesn't happen. Therefore, to give enough power with the total so as not for

Using Creo 7.0.5.0 The A-A section (full) that is defined in the model (single body part) appears weird in the drawing. See this image:This is the same section, viewed from different directions (by just using Flip), yet the top one is missing the contours of the two holes and the chamfer. (note: I have not used the Counter Bore function, as the holes are normal to the outer 45° angles, and the larger diameter is on the inside). There are also two "ghost holes" seen on each side that shouldn't be visible in the this section (those holes aren't deep enough to reach the section).I have tried to regenerate, repaint, redefine, use other reference planes and create completely new sections, but no luck.Noteworthy is that I have similar B and C sections that work perfectly. I have tried to find any differences in how these features and sections are created, but I found nothing.Here's a view of the part and the section looks as expected. I've also highlighted the "ghost holes".

Hello everyone, I am looking for a post-processor for the controller Siemens Sinumerik 828D. I have seen several posts about the Sinumeric 810D and 840D here in the community but none about the 828D.   Can a post-processor for a generic Siemens controller be used for the Sinumerik 828D? or should I create an 828D-specific post-processor? Did someone develop a Sinumerik 828D post-processor? Thank you in advance.   Francesco 

Hello, I want to automate geometry editing process in creo. The steps are as follows: 1. Importing geometry in creo (e.g. step format) from a directory in desktop.2 Perform geometry edit feature in creo & save in step format in the same folder. (Trail file regarding this operation is ready and working successfully.)3. Same process should be repeated for 'n' no. of geometries saved in same folder. Requesting for your help.

Hello Support teamI have created dimensions in creo for a prt and successfully exported step files using AP242 protocol and I able to see dimension both in creo file and step file (refer dimensions.jpg)I want to read dimension from creo and stp file and below is the logic and apis used to get dimensions from creoI have used "ProSolidDimensionVisit" API to get the dimensions .This API give callback to 'test_DimVisitAction' callback function whenever any dimension is found in the model.test_DimVisitAction - A self written callback function,whenever we get a dimension this callback function gets called. API's used inside this functions areProAnnotationIsShownProDimensionSymbolGetProDimensionValueGetProDimensionTypeGetNote:Could you please let me know does the API 'ProSolidDimensionVisit' gives the dimension for step file If notIf not then could please let me know which API I should use to get dimension for both Creo and Step files.

CREO 5 Hello, the help menu in Creo 5 says that after clicking on an item in the drawing view, the corresponding item in the BOM table (aka repeat region) will highlight and vice versa.  I remember this was the case in the past, but I am no longer seeing this.  Is this now a setting that must be enabled? Thank you.

I find this comportement very strange but i know that it's possible to drive a dimension with a parameter in inheritance:1-PART A with dimension driven by parameter2- PART B with PART A in inheritance and with variable parameter and relation but with error with = or ==And with == i obtain this errorBut when i put this parameter A in family table creo calculate the value with good value in each instance but with relation error  Why creo permitte to do this if not possible??Many users test naturally to drive this...The other metod is to drive a dimension via a inheritance part with a parameterThank you very much for your reply 

Hi PTC,   I have trouble to open my creo 3.0 recently after my computer updated.  Every time I click to open to software the warning window pops up with message:     "License request failed for feature   Requesting PROE_Essentialsl …   7788@bsrpc127:(-96) License server machine is down or not responding."   Anyone has the same issue?  How to fix this?  Thank you so much.   Sincerely regards,

Hello, I have a hexagonal lattice feature which intersects a flat surface at 90` I can add the vertical rounds to the lattice itself via the feature, but is there a quicker way to add rounds to the edge that intersects the lattice and flat surface? rather than selecting each of the bottom edge of each of the hexagons? There is approx 150 Cells in the lattice and its quite tiresome to add them all in. Other CAD platforms have intersection selection control, but i cant seem to find anything in creo, even using closed/partial loop or selecting edges by filter? Any help will be appreciated.

3D Copilot question.For instance during creating an extrusion: I can draw the handle for the depth and it will change by 1mm steps - where can I change the setting to smaller or bigger values/steps than this 1mm? Additional question - is there an keyboard shortcut to disable the defined grid during drawing the handle?

wf4Simple sounding question... i have a surface with a hole in it that I want to fill in. Boundary blend doesn't seem to work. How do I go about filling in the hole with a surface?

I am part of a four-person company, two of whom use Creo/PTC without a PDM/PLM.  We use folders on OneDrive for development and that works really well. We include the rev in the file name and always rev the entire assembly using File > Save As to a new folder. It’s really nimble for development. Once we release for tooling, we have been using Grab CAD workbench. It works oookay but, Grab CAD is discontinuing Workbench, so we are looking for a new solution. I would really like to do something more similar to how we handle development, but am stuck on how to handle the drawings. The workflow I am imagining is –Development starts at V1, stops at, say, V50All parts released at Rev A (with Rev A in the file name)File > Save As (to a new folder) > change all file names to Rev AWe want to make a changeOpen Rev AFile > Save As (to a new folder) > change all file names to V51Make the changesFile > Save As (to another new folder) > change names of parts t

I was informed by the guy that I trained to take over my job, that in Windows 11, the ability to create custom toolbars has been removed. Since I’m still working part time, I continue to be interested in the system setup and making sure things continue to work for the end users. I saw some rumors on the web that they removed this because of security concerns. I don’t understand what could be of concern, and why they didn’t just fix whatever concerns there were. I think it’s important to describe how we use custom Task manager toolbars in windows to standardize the environment for all the users. I’ll use our older toolbar for Creo 4 as an example because it’s a bit more streamlined, than the Creo 8 toolbar. To create a toolbar you right click on the task bar and pick Toolbars, New toolbar…  It brings up a explorer window and ask you to pick a folder. The name of the folder will become the name of the toolbar.  The content of that folder is just shortcuts an

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode 8.0.5.0Creo8 application is running on a virtual machine. The VM host is equipped with a NVIDIA graphics card (GRID T4-4Q). When running Creo on this VM, the user periodically notices the Creo main window and the displayed model getting blurry. This lasts for a split second only each time, nevertheless it is very annoying for the user. Only this blur effect happens, no display freeze or any other similar graphics issue. Other 3D applications (e.g. CATIA) do not show this behaviour. Are there any specific settings for this NVIDIA graphics adapter (GRID T4-4Q) which can be applied on the system settings panel of the graphics adapter?

My Dell Precision workstation has a Quadro RTX5000 .... It's amazing to use.  I spoke to an Industrial designer friend at Dell before purchasing this laptop and he said never skimp on a video card so I didnt.     3840 resolution on a laptop!   So I was thinking and after using it for the past few years of a few enhancements that might be noted for future releases of Creo.   I thought I would bounce just one by the folks on the forum.  So many probably don't know that if you draw a line in sketcher that you can change the linetype *ptc calls incorrectly a 'linefont' .... One can also change color.  I also want to also change the line thickness and have a few selections or even be able to increment thickness of lines.  Maybe a developer would consider an option to have the line weight pull thru surfaces or solids as if the surface or solid had a slider for opacity.   Thoughts? One Creo 9.0 question:    I

hello friends how to we change the primary axis word form C to B in the creo post-processor??  thanks asif  

We are trying to send the project to some of our suppliers so that they can manufacture it based on 3D. Currently it receives the models in the STP extension, but when receiving it, it complains about surfaces that are divided. Below is how the part looks in CREO. Below is how the supplier receives the part after importing it, it uses Solidworks. the files are exported as shown below:  Is this a configuration of CREO itself or is there a way to remove it?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0We are having issues creating a new user and was wondering if we can get some assistance. We do not have an admin account available in Creo but we do have admin access to the windchill server. I was wondering if we were missing something with adding a user and can add it through the windchill server. Or is there a way to add a user in the application itself
