Creo+ and Creo Parametric

PTC has changed the way datums and such are attached to models. Now that I have upgraded to Creo 7, I cannot convert to the new paradigm without buying a license for Legacy Data Migration. I have an older Proe_Flex3C license and we cannot do the legacy data migration that is needed for Creo 7. The older licenses should be upgraded so we can continue working without being charged a fee to use our existing models. Converting to subscriptions has been looked at, but it would cost us 2X in annual fees over what we pay for maintenance now. Our annual maintenance/subscription bill with PTC is over $150K already. Charging your customers more to keep using your products is just wrong! Update the old legacy licenses.

Does anyone know if Pro/e has a command (similar to Ideas "assembly configuration" option) in order to create multiple configurations of an assembly, so that each configuration has a unique set of component constraints?I could not find something similar in Pro/e 4.0 help menu.I simply want to create multiple assembly configurations within one assembly model, without having to learn about Mechanisms.Thank you

Hi,For a long time I've thought about using Pattern feature for different directions. Let's say I'm in assembly mode, I've got a simple steel structure with many connector just exactly as below:Now that's ridiculous to insert every single element (connector) separately part by part. So we can use the Pattern inside assembly mode of course. So we need to (or maybe not) use 4 Patterns because connectors are placed in different dircetions like in the following picture:I'd like to use only one Pattern for this operation but still keep directionality of these connectors. When I pattern all connectors with one Pattern I'm unfortunately losing this directionality as follows: Therefore I've got a few questions.  Is it even possible to achieve that - using one Pattern and ain't losing the directionality?If the 1 point is impossible, what is the good practice for this example (and similar)? Should I create 4 Patterns separately?Is the good practi

I am trying to enable ModelCheck Gatekeeper to prevent check-in of models if they do not contain proper parameters and values. When I do a check-in, I get the following error messages: Incorrect ModelCHECK mode used on models in the context Incorrect set of config files used on ModelCHECK in the context Model has not been validated in last 24 hours in the context ModelCHECK failed on models in the context   Running ModelCHECK interactively, I get no errors or warnings.

Hello friends ,I have collected solid edges from drawing view , but edges collected from view is all edges available in solid , but I have to collect only visible edges in view , for that I use ProDrawingedgeDisplay() API , it gives same result for all edges available in solid , Please help me to resolve the issue 

Hello friends ,I have calculated the angle  using Measure API, but I have to round off value , Is there any API available in toolkit to round off the value . Please help me to resolve the issue. 

Using CP4.   TL/DR: You can use an interchange assembly to swap out un-related components of an assembly.  You can't (?) use it to make the same swap in a merged part.   Example A is a weldment.  I have 2 different versions.  A.ASM for the drawing and A.PRT that has all the components merged together.  A has tabulations (i.e. A-1, A-2, A-3, etc.).  The tabulations can use either components B or C.  B and C are similar, but they were created in different files.   Assembly Component A-1 B-1 A-2 B-2 A-3 C-1 A-4 C-2   Working A.ASM (generic) uses B.PRT (generic).   I made A_INTERCHANGE.ASM with the Interchange sub-type to define reference pairs between parts B.PRT and C.PRT.   A.ASM family table has a column for model B.  For A's instances, it calls out the instances for B.PRT or C.PRT as per above.  The family table verifies successfully.  I've spot-checked several of A's instances and confirmed that

Hi everyone! first post here. Recently we got a PocketNC V2-50 in our warehouse and I'm trying to set up a PostProcessor for it. I'm almost there, but for some reason when the tool is moving around the spheric surface, it is not exporting the G-Code as it should be. To me, it looks like the Post-Processor is trying to get from the beginning of one of the dome paths to the end of it but instead of going from the point, let say, M to point N as it should, it is getting to N from behind, so it's trying to calculate a smooth curve to get there, resulting in a wrong trajectory.(Image below)The cylindrical section is "fine", and I quote it because the whole program is running with the pocket NC is executing the code with the A table rotated 180º, which doesn't make any sense unless there's a setting that I'm missing in the Option File Generator (which is where I've been trying to get it done) The PostProcessor I'm using as a reference is the UNCX01.P37, which is one of the Cre

hi @all, we're trying to create an unattended installation package for creo 7.0.4.0,but after it run on first installation without problems, on second run setup.exe it brings return code -609 (although it was uninstalled before properly) do you need further informations and which?machines are windows 10 1909. thanks and regardsDom 

I received drawing formats from a client where the numbers and letters around the drawing sheet appear when you first start the drawings but disappear after it has been saved. This is also the case with some title block parameters. I am using Creo 4.0. If you know how to fix this, that would be greatly appreciated.

Dear PTC Community, I have tried for quite a while but do not seem to figure out how to make the following possible: I have created a part in which I defined the geometry I would (later) like to substract from a simple extrude feature to make a gear. The geometry is a parametric build of surfaces that I merged and patternd. See below:I now created an extrude feature of which I would like to subtract the previously created geometry to make it a gear. Sounds like a simple task but I am completely stuck and can't seem to figure it out. Happy for any input.I was able to "Solidify - remove" one small section from the extrude before the pattern but once I have the pattern it will not let me Solidify it OR once it is Solidified it will not allow the pattern. Using Creo 2.0.  Best Regards,Rene Rudolf

Hi,I'd like to have a G3-curve, which uses points as references. In sketch, spline has no option for G3. Using the Style Tool I can create G3 curves, but can't reference them. Is there an option I haven't found? I would be grateful for any help. Thanks!

Hi everybody, My computer have Intel I7 processor  8th gen, 32gb ram, ssd and Nvidia RTX 2060 8gb, but I have some problems and errors.Do you think it's because of the graphics card ?I must change my graphics card? There is a configuration that I missed ? or Just update the card drivers?

Hello Community, is there a setting or method to reduce the vector resolution when exporting a line view from Creo View to a vector file, e.g. to PDF? With some assemblies, we get 2D vector graphics with hundreds of thousands of lines (or points), which are then difficult to process further in our vector graphics program. Thanks for ideas
