Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello, Are there any configs that auto suppress failed parts on regeneration?  I am opening several parts for research that I need to regenerate and the failure diagnostics really slow me down.  Is there a way to suppress this function? Running PTC Creo 4.0 Thanks for the help!

While working on drawing, "license lost" message along with "offline mode" message (see image). I cannot click anything.  "offline mode" message appears but not clickable. I cannot bring "license lost" message to the foreground of the screen. Drawing is saved but it would take 2 hours to re-open. Solution? 

Hi, I need to write a code to delete some components from an assembly using Excel. I'm new in VBA and I have found some examples but I will need some help. Thanks.

Using Creo 7.0.5.0 Q: How can I find the Body ID's in an assembly? Reason:Error Diagnostics for Analysis/Assembly FailureAll position constraints can't be simultaneously satisfied. The following position constraints can't be satisfied:1) The following kinematic loop can't be closed: Ground - body38 - Ground. The bodies in each part is called Body1 (by default, I don't model multibody parts), making this information rather pointless. Can't find any model tree column that tells this information either.

I need to hide sketches shown in drawing views (sketches not quilts).I do hide it every time I open the drawing file, so I need a permanent solution.

Can someone please help me with drawings. Im trying to add 4 different part models to a drawing. When I try to label them with &model_name they all keep the name thats preselected on the bottom of the drawing(I attached image). Can someone please help me fix this issue? 

Hi all, By using "&weldasm.totallength" we can show the total weld length in any table on DRW. But we need to use similar code in ASM parameters. I tried to use "WELD_LENGTH" parameter of each future in the releation. But when I try to use the future parameter in releation it gives as "WELD_LENGTH:FID_702:3" specifically with FID. I can't use because the number of weld future in each file will be different and the location of weld future will be different. If I successed to assign total weld lenght to any parameters I will sign as designated and will send to Windchill. Then I will prapare a query builder report which inludes total weld length of CAD Documents.Do you have any idea. It can also be a solution with mapkey or ModelCheck ... Best regards,

I am working on a harness drawing and on my table for pin to pin connections, I have parameters "&harn.run.cond.from.pin.name" & "&harn.run.cond.to.pin.name". At the moment these values are not populated in the table.1) Where can I access the values corresponding to these parameters?2) How do I edit these values?All I need for my table is to view the from and to connector pins.(Using Creo 8.0.4.0) 

Hi,today I started a new 2D Exploded view for our company product;I noticed that for some component Creo starts group and put them under a single Balloon. That's not right, someone knows how to fx it?In the attached image a screenshot of my issue.The second component is a motor and is an assembly, it put 2 balloon. Thanks in advance

As per the original thread.    Dear sir @BenLoosli ,    If we have more drawings in the directory and while saving the assembly or let's say subassembly as a backup then how to figure out which drawing are utilise for the assembly. Currenlty this method is very time taken, we are currently doing manual checkup of drawing and then do save as a backup result into invest more time. If we have the pack and go functionality like solidworks then the process would be very easy, what say!

Has anyone run into problems trying to start up Creo 8 when Hyper-v is enabled? I have to uncheck Hyper-v, restart my computer to get Creo 8 to start. I don't have this problem with Creo 7 and below.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeF000Good AfternoonWe were having issues adding a new user to have access to the windchill server with creo parametric. Do users need to be added to to the application or is there a way to add the users based off their domain account. Or do we add it to the windchill website?Thanks,Cameron

This week, using Creo 8, I've noticed that the toggle Datum Plane function does not seem to work properly. In any instance, whether I'm in an existing part or creating a new one, the datum planes do not show up when I activate the datum plane icon. What I do notice is that when the key is activated, I can mouse scroll over where the datum plane(s) should be and it will highlight the datum plane(s) until the mouse scrolls away. If I activate a function, such as extrude (or others also seem to have the same effect) and then cancel the function before completion, the datum planes will appear. When this happens, the datum planes will now not turn off when pressing the Datum Plane icon. The Datum Axis, Datum Points, etc. seem to work as normal. Up until this week, I have never had any issues and I have not changed any config files, at least not intentionally. Has anyone seen this happen before and how was is mitigated?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.3.0Custom Ui dialogs are raised but are not active until user presses mouse button on them. This issue does not happen with 8.0.2.0 but happens with 8.0.3.0 and 8.0.4.0

Hi,   We are facing compatibility issues with Zeiss Calypso software where we intend to export the model based dimensions from creo to the software(Calypso). Currently, all Feature control frame annotations can be viewed via the Calypso but all the rest of the model based dimensions are missing.   Do you have any work instructions to export creo PMI informations to external softwares (CMM).   Looking forward to your response. Thanks.

Hello, On my manufacturing draws, i have a sheet for each operation (op010, 020, 030 etc.)On each sheet i have a repeat region with all sequences type, name and tool for the actual operation.  I order to simplify the operatior work, i would like to add a fifth column with the tool_pocket_number for loading the tool carousel on the machine with the right tool. Here are my column parameters : When i add &mfg.actoper.workcell.head.tooltbl.toolpocket.tool_position in the fifth column here is what i get :    How can i add for each line the tool pocket number ? Thanks in advance.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.3.0If you have any questions, please contact us. Can the step file created in the free trial version be opened in the official creo?   Translated by Iuliana Lazar with Google Translate on 08 Dec 2022

I need to change the number of decimal places shown in repeat region column in CREO Parametric drawings.

How to simulate the bolt pretension in creo simulate. can someone use the model in attachment for a demo with 30kN(it is axial force due to tightening torque).

Is there a way to modify the standard tolerance table within CREO Parametric 5.0.6?  I believe these tolerances are within the ANSI tolerances,  I want to update the X.XXX tolerance to be ±.003 instead of ±.001 by default.  And of course, different products will require a different default tolerance.   Thank You, 

Hello, I am using the graphics card P520 quadro from Nvidia for creo 9.0.This week suddenly an error message appeared (see attachment ...547_n.png below) during me drawing some stuff. Then when I tried rendering, the rendering screen went all black. Rendering since goes very slow and the message keeps appearing.  I updated the NVIDIA drivers, checked the OpenGL version - it is 4.6 - and wanted to check the hardware, but the latest checker software - that I could find - for this is one designed for creo 8.0. I just noticed that the program does not use the quadro graphics card, but instead the intel cpu (see troubleshoot Word file). How can I solve this issue? Thanks!

 Dear community, I created a family table for a model and I would like to edit the dimension value from other analysis results.Because it is easier to be edited, the family table should be in .txt format.If the text family table is automatically imported/exported to Creo, it is a great help to us. Is it possible to do with PRO/PROGRAM or Creo TOOLKIT? Thanks. 

At first appearance, I was excited to find out that ModelCHECK (MC) could automatically update things using ModelUPDATE (MU).  After I turned it on and tested it, I am terrified of it.  From what I can tell, MU puts all applicable features through the same blender without giving any say on the admin or user side.    For example, if you check for the following it will automatically update the model, and neither the Admin nor the User has any say in which one it will automatically do (regardless if set to Error or Warning): EXTRA_LAYERS EXTRA_PARAMS STARTPARM STARTLAYER BURIED_FEAT etc...ModelUPDATE Checks (ptc.com) This means if I have MC check to see if things are missing or provide a warning that there may be layers that are not needed, MU will auto-delete them.  But what if they are useful?  I cannot warn the user to look at them and see if they make sense!   Even worse, it will delete buried features automatically just because I want a user to lo
