Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hey there,I’m following the mouse tutorial (Link) and loosing my hair over the geometry import at 12m13s. I cannot rectangle select the faces nor does another online workaround I read about holding right mouse button on a face and “select all” appear. The only option I have atm is selecting every single face one after another holding control. Which on some models are thousands, so not feasible. I tried holding LMB and drag, tried it with RMB, MMB, holding shift, alt or ctrl in addition but no success.Here’s how it looks (language is set to german by the company): How can I select all of them? What could be the issue that I cannot rectangle select them? Thanks and have a good day, Andy

According to the developer guide tkusetoc, this function supports passing a drawing view argument to display annotations only in the target view starting from Creo Parametric 2.0 M060. The official documentation states:From Creo Parametric 2.0 M060 onward, you can specify the view in which the annotations for the selected feature and component must be displayed. For the functions ProAnnotationByFeatureShow() and ProAnnotationByComponentShow(), specify the view where the annotations must be displayed. If you pass the input argument view as NULL, the annotations are displayed in all the views.However, during practical development, the function returns error code -9 (PRO_TK_NOT_IMPLEMENTED) whenever a valid non-NULL ProView handle is passed to the view parameter. When passing NULL to the view argument, all annotations are displayed across every drawing view as documented, which works as expected. My business requirement is to show feature annotations exclusively in a single specified draw

How do you change or write the text in the title bar? 

I make a hole and create Geometric Tolerance in model, such as 3/8-16 UNC -2B TAP THRU 5/16 DRILL (0.257) .0750 - (1) HOLE. I only can put GTOL as a free note in drawing as shown belowIs there a method to place to a hole note directly?Thanks,

I am trying to add some labels in Creo drawing view. I tried square box with filled hatching and Image placement. Don't want to generate 3D file for this labels , just for drawing view.Both way it is still showing lines behind hatching and image in PDF export.When i generate symbol, it hides model lines in Creo , but when exported to PDF it wont hide lines and they still show.Anyone knows any other solution ? Response much appreciated.Creo doesn't have Text with filled background option. It is possible in Solidedge but not able to do it in creo. 

Creo Parametric 12.4.4.0I want to the empty view because I write the notes. please teach me. how to make a empty view box.

Is there a Drawing Option setting that would allow the default diameter leader to be the single outside point (like on the left) instead of the double inside (like on the right).Currently, we have to double click and then middle click to create the .625 dimension, then you have to deselect, left click to re highlight and right click to flip the arrows.  90% of our diameter dimensions end up with the single arrow, so we would like this to be the default config option.Thanks PTC Community!This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

I use a Wacom Tablet for daily use. I would love it if the User Interface/tabs would be allowed to move to the bottom of the screen. Yes I am lazy but bringing my pen to the top of the screen to move through the tabs is more difficult since they are at the top of the screen than if they were at the bottom of the screen. I use my stylus with the brush tool in Freestyle to move nodes around, so someone at PTC is thinking outside the box to make this more Stylus friendly, customization of the user interface would be a logical next step to make this easier to use.Does anyone have a script or a way to change this?

Hi,Creo tells me that embedded components in an inseparable assembly are missing:How is this possible? My understanding is that those components are saved in the assembly file-how can they be missing?

HiI am experiencing a visualization issue in Creo Ansys Simulation. (12.4.2.0)The simulation completes successfully and the result legend/color scale is displayed correctly. However, when viewing the results, the part is displayed as a wireframe and the contour plot (fringe colors) is not shown on the geometry.The issue occurs across all simulation types and result types that I have tested.An interesting observation is that when I start a result animation, the contour colors immediately appear and are displayed correctly during the animation. Once the animation stops, the model returns to the wireframe-only display.Has anyone encountered this behavior before?Thanks 

Hello. It is posible to rout a pipeline and add a fittings using toolkit in creo piping? Anybody has such expiriens?   Looks like posible to get some information about pipes in creo, but not posible to create new features...

Hello PTC community,  I'm using Creo Parametric 9.0.4.0 and would like to perform simulations. Apparently, the Simulate is grayed out but Flow Analysis is not. Is this licensing issue or something else? Thanks,SR

All,CREO 8: Is there an easy way to not have multiple lines in bom for flexible components in assembly? No duplicates or No duplicate level does not work. I saw something about editing the bom. I did not understand itI tried using family tables instead of flexible models, but having the same problem with multiple lines.WayneF

Hello,I am working on a Creo Toolkit customization that needs to identify features created from a UDF and generate sequences based on the original UDF feature names.As described in CS196043, when a UDF is placed in Creo Parametric, the feature names from the source UDF are not preserved in the resulting model. Because of this behavior, I cannot directly compare the placed feature names with the original UDF feature names.However, in the UDF Placement dialog, under the Options tab, the "Redefine These Features" section displays the original feature names from the source UDF. This information appears to be available somewhere internally within Creo.I reviewed the Creo Toolkit API documentation but could not find an API that provides access to the original UDF feature names.My question is:Is there any Creo Toolkit API that allows access to the original feature names shown in the "Redefine These Features" list? If not directly, is there another supported method to retrieve the mapping betw

Hey,I have used zone section view, I want to increase the X-Hatching size in my drawing view. How can I do it?

!--scriptorstartfragment-->Hello, I would like to simulate a mechanism consisting of a pendulum (Point A), a pulley (Point B), and a slider (Point C) in an assembly. The conditions are:- The wire between Point A and Point C is inextensible (constant length, no stretch, no slack).- The wire passes over Point B (pulley).- The pendulum is rigid one-part. My questions are: 1. Is it possible to build such an assembly model using relations or other Creo mechanisms?2. Can this model be used for motion simulation in MDO (Mechanism Dynamics Option)? I tried using relations based on measured distances (Analysis → Measure).However, it seems that the measure feature cannot be used on the left-hand side of a relation, so I could not enforce the constraint properly. Does anyone have suggestions for modeling this kind of system in Creo?(I am useing Creo11) Thank you in advance.``!--scriptorendfragment-->

Hola - We use CreoNC extensively - however, we use Vericut for simulation and never have built a machine model for use within Creo. I’m attempting to do that now.At no point have I been able to make the kinematic machine model appear in the Creo NC window. I’ve read the (thin) information available. I’ve asked Gemini. I then went to the Knowledge Base and downloaded the FADAL VMC file (close enough to the vertical mill I created) and I can’t get that to work either.I am using Windchill - maybe that’s the issue since I don’t have the machine in the pro_mfg_workcell folder, though I did browse to where it is and it accepted the entry.I also cannot find “Machine Play” anywhere, either in NC or ProProcess.Licensing issue? TIA

I have been using CREO MDO for some time to evaluate forces, crank torques etc. It works very well. But what's the best way to dynamic balance a complex mechanism such as a internal combustion engine in MDO?

I would like to set Measured MAX and MIN Value in MDO  within a certain range for BMX Constraint.Model Motion is Rotating 0~90 degree range and MAX and MIN value in whole degree range can be selected in BMX without settingBut are there any way to set MAX and MIN value in a certain degree range (i.e. 30~60deg)? (attached file is simple model for this question. so, I hope solution wihtout modifying MDO setting)  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.6.0 I currently need to work from home, so I am using the Home Edition license of PROE_DesignEssH in my home office environment. I need to open *.drw files created by my colleagues using PROE_DesignEss (155) (which includes the Creo Language Option License—CHINESE (formerly Pro/ENGINEER)), but the Chinese characters in these files appear as squares (unreadable). How can I resolve this issue, since I need to continue working from home? Thank you. Here are the errors that I faced The characters are displayed as squares (unrecognizable)

Hi everyone,I am facing an issue in my Creo Toolkit application and would appreciate any suggestions.WorkflowI launch my Toolkit application. A UI dialog is displayed where the user enters the required drawing parameters. When the user clicks the Apply button, the drawing is loaded using ProMdlFiletypeLoad(). I then apply a drawing setup (.dtl) file using ProInputFileRead(). The model parameters are updated. The model and drawing are regenerated.ProblemWhen the drawing is first loaded, it appears correctly with the expected formatting and DTL settings.However, as soon as the parameter update/regeneration begins, the drawing temporarily becomes scattered. Dimensions, tables, notes, and other annotations move from their correct locations, almost as if the drawing is momentarily using a different unit system (for example, inches instead of millimeters).I would like to prevent the user from seeing this intermediate scattered state.My questionsIs this expected behavior when loading a drawin

1."Can we perform a 'Cleanup Dimensions' operation across all views of a 2D drawing sheet simultaneously by passing a NULL view pointer in the J-Link API for Creo 10?"2."In Creo customization using J-Link, is it possible to cast a standard pfcDrawing object to a wfcWDrawing object to access Web Foundation Class methods?" 

When I export a PDF, the phantom and hidden lines appear to be the same, but in the Creo drawing, it’s clearly different. The only way I found that will reflect the phantom line geometry is what I did with the line highlighted in yellow. I described how I did it below.Does anyone know how to fix this? I want to use the component display to make the lines phantomopque, and have it reflected when I export a PDF. Yellow - I went to display<Line Style<Modify Lines<PHANTOMFONTBlue - I went to Component Display<PhantomOpqueGreen - Hidden Line Here is the pen table I am usingpen 1 thickness 0.03 cm; geometrypen 2 thickness 0.005 cm; dimensionspen 3 thickness 0.02 cm; hidden; pattern .1 .1 cm;pen 4 thickness 0.005 cmpen 5 thickness 0.03 cm; sheetmetal greenpen 6 thickness 0.015 cm; curve_colorpen 7 thickness 0.001 cmpen 8 thickness 0.015 cm; green textpdf Thank you to anyone who can help.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.9.0 part mass appears incorrect. Please see screen shots with this case. I would like to know why we have 2 density values. I would like to know why "assign material" is greyed out. Here are the errors that I faced no error messages. Incorrect mass
