Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using a MacBook Pro with Windows 10 using Parallels and I am having issues opening Creo Parametric. I installed the student version and the installation process went fine except when it finished up installing it said that parametric "installed with issues". After I finished the installation I tried to run parametric both normally and run it as an administrator but nothing happens when I try to run it. 

As per the original post.    So, decals/textures are not truly portable in Creo, unlike other MCAD suites? How has the Creo community put up with this for so many years?   In my opinion, a user library does not belong in Program Files. That is not a best practice anywhere in the Windows computing world.   In other words, if I hand a part or assembly off to another party, with the graphic files included, they have to move those files to a common directory on their PC (such as C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 9.0.0.0\Common Files\graphic-library\textures\misc), where they will likely live forever, even if one-time use? They to have pre-emptively know that there are textures, otherwise they would need to be manually re-attached.

Is there a Windows compatible font that is very close to or identical to Creo's ISOFONT? I want to make notations in an image editor that are in the same font. It's a simple enough font, but I can't find anything that looks right.

Hello everyone, I have encountered what I think is a larger problem with the Creo system (though hopefully I am just missing something obvious?) I have been through a few similar posts on here (e.g. https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Modeling-Questions/Solids-are-shown-as-a-shell-when-section-view-is-activated-on/td-p/98297) but have not been able to find a solution which solves my problem. This relates to creating an offset section of a sheetmetal part which intersects an extrude, and only extending the section in one orientation from the plane.  As far as I can tell, this is 100% repeatable, though I haven't been able to test on many parts. The setup for this is to take a sheetmetal part, create an extrude, then create an offset section using a reference plane as the basis of the sketch. Below is a part I can produce the problem on:  Part looks okay while in the Edit Definition screen of the section, with a gray color on the intersected faces.  

Hello all,   I am just starting to understand different customization options available with Creo and I have downloaded the user guides for it, I have found that, There are three user guides available on the PTC helps as mentioned below,   1. Creo Object Toolkit  (C Language)  2. Creo Object Toolkit (C++)  3. Creo Object tookit (java)   By seeing three different options for customization, I am not sure if all three has same functionality available or one of them is having more functions available for customization?   I have seen that the user guide for C Language is the longest around 2000 pages, and the C++ and Java both are around 800 pages.   To select which one to go for in future, I would like to know if all three are having same capabilities when it comes to automating Creo?   Those who are experienced users, please shed some light on this.   Thanks in advance.

Hi again, Once again the newbie question. We want to develop an extension that depends on the ability to receive some basic info about the items clicked by our users (e.g. - id of the clicked element).  I see such info displayed by the system on mouse hover and on mouse click selection. Unfortunately, I did not found any documented API which notify me on this events.Do I understand right that no hooks are provided by API on the mouse events? How do you solve this standard situation? Thank you so much for your advise.

I have been using my free time to study Python scripting so that I could automate tasks at work and improve efficiency. Several of my scripts have been written to make things eaiser in Pro/E so I figured I would go ahead and share them here:benderThis script was written because several of my colleagues refuse to use Pro/Piping for hydraulic tubes/hoses. Because of this, we had no way of adding CNC bending data to the drawing without remodeling their parts in Pro/Piping. This script attempts to solve that problem by reading in a Pro/E point file and spitting out a CSV file containing the bend data (feed, bend, twist). It is still a work in progress, but I have posted the source code on GitHub:https://github.com/HyGear/benderdiff-dwgThis script was written at the request of our purchasing department. They were having problems with understanding what changed between revisions on large/busy drawings. The solution was to write a script that compares the PDFs of the two drawings and outputs

I have an assembly which I want to save a copy of. However, one subassembly throws an error which I would translate to english like "Model ~~.asm has been renamed by references." I have already tried saving the particular subassembly as a copy and replaced the subassembly by its copy. But this way, I was not able to make the error go away. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Please let me know if you need additional information to be able to comment on the question!

Hello, I have a filter condition which exceed the limit of 80 characters. (&asm.mbr.name==...)The opposite condition doesn't result in a shorter formula. I tried to use "or" ( | ) but didn't success.&asm.mbr.name == *val1*, *val2*, *val3*,...|asm.mbr.name == *val11*, *val12*, *val13* Do you know a solution ?Thanks. 

  Hello there,   I tried to export an assembly file in stl format then I got the stl like below:    solid  ABC(assembly name)        ~information on location~  endsolid ABC   This one describes the assembly as a single entity that has a lot of surface. However, I'd like to export the stl file which has each entity name and its location info as this:     solid A-1 (on of the parts)         ~information on location~   endsolid A-1   solid A-2         ~information on location~   endsolid A-2   solid B-1     ...     ...   Could you guys have any tips and solitions to export an stl file as above? I've looked export configuration window in Creo 4.0 but could not find any options like that.    Thanks for your help!

hi,  i want to create an ui in creo window for which iam using creo ui editor. the .res file gets created. is there any particular location where it needs to be placed ?  i use prouidialogcreate to load res file . is it the correct function iam using ? sometimes i get tk_general_error . when there is no error , no windows get displayed on creo window.  ProUIDialogActivate i use this function after ProUIDialogCreate. please guide me.   thanks   

This question has been brought up before but the latest thread was from 2015. There was talk that this functionality may be included in CREO versions after 5.0, however I'm currently using 7.0 and I'm not seeing anything that supports reuse of harness assemblies in different shapes.What I'm trying to do:Reuse the same harness assembly in multiple locations in our product but with a different routing.  Does anyone know of an elegant way to handle this? Currently I'm creating multiple harness parts with multiple sets of connectors in the same harness  assembly and using flexible assembly to suppress the other routings and connectors when I use the harness. This isn't ideal because anytime the upper level assembly regenerates, the unsuppressed harness parts show as being 'modified' when in reality they were not.

When saving/exporting pdf's, is there a way to have the settings such that the .pdf is save with "Fit to Height". That way, when the .pdf is opened, it will be already set as "Fit to Height"?

I am trying to create key mappings for CREO ASSEMBLY to execute options like COINCIDENT and DISTANCE --> you couple two parts in an assembly, based on an axis, and CREO defaults to something, usually Distance.With a push of a keyboard button (or two), C makes it COINCIDENT (or CV), A is ANGLE OFFSET (or AS), P is PARALLEL (or PL), N is NORMAL (or NM), X is CENTERED (or XC) and so forth...Is there a way to do this? This would save a lot of mouse clicks...Thank you very much!!

1. If I create any relations in AFX config file those relations will not be visible if I create the structure using assembly framework. 2. Every model has over all size ( Length x breath x  height ) that we can look by using the option File - Prepare - ModelCheck Interactive. How can we bring it to model parameter.

Hi, For some time now I've been searching for a solution regarding PDF exporting from CREO.I do know how to make a PDF so that is not the problem. My problem is that when we have a drawing with e.g 10 pages, where the last page is a DXF page (scale 1:1)We don't want that last page to be in the PDF.. so is there a way to make a PDF of the first 9 pages.We have a worker installed on our server to make the PDF so it must be something that can be done by the worker, and we don't always have 10 pages, it can be more or less that that from drawing to drawing. Do any of you ha a solution for this problem..?? /Dion
