I am using Creo Parametric 8.0 8.0.0.0Actually Using Creo 8.0.1.0 - Normally, when spinning a model the spin centre latches to a face/edge/etc.. of the model under the current cursor position.I've noticed that when the new 'filled plane display' is switched on and there is a plane in front of the model, the spin centre latches onto the plane instead on the model - even if the model edge/surface/etc. itself is highlighted.Switching the filled plane display off stops this happening.Is this intentional?Is it possible to stop this with some configuration option.

Using Creo 5.0.4 - New user I have a section view that is a partial view (not to be confused with a partial section view).  I want to balloon the items shown on this view for clarification.  These items are already ballooned in other full views. My limited understanding of Creo is these have to be a reference balloon (with the word "ref" underneath).  Creating them was a challenge.  I could not create them following the instructions given in Creo Parametric Help Center (ptc.com). I selected a component then nothing would happen, regardless if I picked the Reference Balloon button before or after my selection.  Tried right clicking, tried left clicking, tried middle mouse button, tried hitting enter.  (I rarely know which button I should be hitting half the time). I ended up creating the reference balloons in another view (I don't know how as I cannot repeat the process) and manually moving them to the section view. Adding 3 balloon

As you may know the middle mouse button is for rotating and dragging the part.Sadly I can't work with Creo at all at times since I have a hardware problem with my middle mouse button.Where can you remap it to a different button?

Hi and season greetings.Straight to the point. I am able to acquire a faceted feature with protoolkit but I wonder whether I can get the facets by selecting a portion of the mesh. If I go into the editing phase and select some faces then I can't get the facets in the buffer when I select some facets. The ideal is the selector to return a faceted subset of the original mesh but it seems that it is not doing this or am I wrong.Also is it a way to insert a point cloud and work with it apart from inserting it as geometry and then suffer from the slow response time?Regards.

Hello Friends, I have to create Offset X Section , For that I have API ProXsecOffsetCreate() but it needs some arguments that I didn't get it ,Is there any sample example to create offset cross section in toolkit . Regards,Kunal 

Hello All, I am trying to get layer status of drawing layers using "ProLayerDisplaystatusGet".As per my understanding, drawing includes model layers which can separately show/hide in drawing along with it's own layers. I am not able to find the status of layers inside the drawing which comes from model.please refer below snap for reference. I found another API (ProDwgLayerDisplaystatusGet) which takes view as input. but I wants to check the status of layers which corresponds to drawing(TOP MODEL). If I have wrong concept on layer then please correct me. Thanks for the help. Regards,Harsh Patel 

I want to automatically set all components in an assembly named with a certain prefix to "REF" for QTY on a drawing BOM. In the drawing BOM repeat region, is there a way to extract the first part of a part's DESCRIPTION parameter value and use it to change its entry in the QTY column? Here is the PTC command line I am using to extract: extract(string, position, length) For example:If param = abcdef, then parameter new will be set to equal bcd by this line: new = extract(param,2,3) Here are the code I am using currently, it doesn't give an error, but it doesn't change the QTY column to "REF" like I need it to:QTY1=rpt_qtyMEM_PRE=extract(asm_mbr_description,1,4)IF MEM_PRE=="mem-"QTY1="REF"ELSEQTY1=rpt_qtyENDIF Thanks in advance!

Is it possible to populate the radius along with X, Y, Z coordinates when creating a tube from the Pipe command in a 2D drawing using Hole Tables?  Also, I've included a table created in Catia or NX (see attached: piping table) and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction and let me know if Creo is capable of producing something similar.  I am using Creo 7.

I want to use a line from copied geometry as a connection in assembly but can't because it's considered an assembly item and not a component item.

I am using Creo Parametric 8.0 8.0.2.0I need to create a drawing with two sheets, the first sheet with dimensions in millimeters and the second sheet with dimensions in fractional inches. It's possible?

Applicable Releases: Creo Parametric 1.0 to 8.0   Description: In this video, we will be using "Active Layer Object Selection" option to: Control the display of features or datums in a drawing view Control display of items in layers on specific drawing view Hide/Unhide the features added in layer in specific drawing views

Hi everyone, Would appreciate your help. I'm doing a 2d drawing from a 3D model. In the 2D drawing (.drw), I have two combined states, i.e. A and B.Now I have some annotations in my 3D model which I was able to pull into my 2D drawing for state A. Issue is once I have the annotations in state A, I cannot get the same annotation in State B (unless I do manual annotation). Either the annotation is in state A or B, not in both.Question: Is it possible to have the same annotations in state A and B at the same time? ThxsSandy 

Hello, new Creo user here.  I have a drawing that has a couple of family table generated models in it, including the generic.  How can I tell which model a particular view is associated with? Similarly, There are a few tables, including a BOM.  How do I see which instance the BOM is associated with? Can I change this associated on the BOM (or any table) without recreating it? Thanks,Greg

Hi team,I want to develop a plugin for Creo Parametric using Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ as a commercial product (for sale).What Creo Parametric license do I need for that, considering that I'm going to use Creo Parametric for developing purposes only? Thank you,=Andrey

ok,ok -- I know this has been asked many times before, but for the life of me I can't find a summary of postings. Just single emails asking the same thing and no responses... (I will post a summary with all responses once the dust clears)Using WF4 M050 -- I cannot add balloons to a view with a supposedly assigned repeat region. I get the Invalid View for BOM Balloons error. No matter what I've tried I can't get this to work. I understand ( I ~think~) how repeat regions are tied to models/reps. I have narrowed the problem down to trying to place 2 views.Here's how I'm setup... ASM1.ASM REP1 REP2REP2 also shows some parts in REP1Create a drawing. Drop in View1 with REP1 on sheet 1. Create Table with Repeat Region and show balloons = ok. Drop View2 with REP2 on sheet 2. Create Table with Repeat Region -- note: table displays correctly with only parts from REP2 -- Show balloons and I get the Invalid View error. huh?Further testing... So maybe it's the format/template? If I go to Table >

Has anyone tried the config setting drawing_name_sameas_model_name?  The documentation I found for it says "yes" will auto select the check box for Use drawing model file name.   I found it today and set it to yes.  When I tried making a new drawing for a part, the checkbox on the New window was not checked for me.  Using 7.7.5.0  

We are trying to automate a process that can gut the internal components of our product and create a step file for marketing and external vendors. Questions: What does your company use? Can this be done via Windchill and the cadworker? What are some lessons-learned and tips/tricks you have found? If you are using some third party tool, what is it? Thanks!

Hello everyone! I have an issue with the working planes in Creo 7. The planes can only be shown when Plane Display is activated. If assembly contains a large number of parts, planes of all parts is being visible when the Plane Display is activated. I just want to highlight only one plane of the part in the assembly. It doesn't look to be possible. When I go to the part in assembly Model Tree and toggle visibilty of the plane, nothing happens, i.e the plane is still invisible. Do we have a solution here?  

Hi, When projecting a circle it only projects half of it.  1. Can it be set to project it all.2. ideally just project the centre point.

Struggling to keep option pre-selected on closing and reopening. Any ideas please. What file is this stored in when loading?  

Dear Creo community, i would like to control the lengths of my parts in an assembly with an excel spreadsheet. That works with an excel analysis and relationships for a while.   But if I save and reopen the assembly and want to edit the Excel analysis, a new Excel spreadsheets is created with the existing lengths. The name is different. Changes in the new Excel table have no effect on the model. Neither do changes in the linked Excel spreadsheets. Not even after editing the analysis and regenerating the assembly. if I want to edit the Excel again, a new Excel spreadsheets is created with the old lengths.   In the company we use Windchill. The Excel Excel spreadsheet is not saved in Windchill but on the desktop.   Do you have any idea how I can fix the link between Creo and Excel spreadsheets? Do I need to save the Excel spreadsheet in Windchill? How would that work?   With best regards Morian
