Hi, I have subscription ending on 2025. I've received an email "eNews and alerts" announcing Creo 8-0-2-0. But Creo 8 doesn't appear on download page.I've just retrieve my licence file and there is just Creo 7.I can't understand why I don't have Creo 8. Is there anything to do ? Thanks

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 8.0 (connected) 8.0 8.0.0.0When I am modeling a part it is rounding my dimensions to the nearest fraction. So when I type in 0.1943 it rounds it to 3/16. I looked in the configuration editor but nothing stood out.Thanks

Hello all and welcome to another blog post in the multibody series. Today’s topic represents an add-on to the previous post : How to “position” a body. The workflow example in the below video explains in more detail how you can leverage these (previously discussed) positioning operations to create a design like this very easily. he intent here is to drive the cutout of the blue body parametrically based on the defined range of angular movement of the yellow pin. The workflow example makes use of the Flexible Modeling Move feature to create something like a “simplified motion envelope” driving the cutout opening in the blue body. (view in My Videos) Thanks for reading. I hope it was informative. If you liked it, give it a Kudo. Back to Creo 7.0 & 8.0+ Multibody Home: Start Here! Enjoy!....Martin
Hello all and welcome to another blog post in this multibody blog series. Todays topic: Construction bodies!Construction body are a pretty unique, powerful concept in Creo’s multibody implementation. As such it is really important to know about them and to understand how to use them.So, what are construction bodies? Construction bodies are bodies that are used for the design of your model, but do not contribute to the final geometry or mass. That means that similar on how you used quilts in the past to create additional geometry helping with the construction of your design, you can now do the very same with solid geometry. The construction attribute of these bodies will then help you to differentiate that geometry and automatically exclude it. Excluding them from mass properties is just one out of more than a dozen workflows where they are treated special. You will find more details in the video. (view in My Videos) Thanks for reading. I hope it was informative. If you lik
Some Creo modules or applications such as NC or mold design modules do not yet fully support multibody models (as of Creo 7.0/8.0). Watch the below video to understand what you can do in these cases and how you can get to the required reference models for these downstream applications. Thanks for reading and many thanks to my colleague Beat Fretz who provided this example model (view in My Videos)to me. I hope it was informative. If you liked it, give it a Kudo.

Hi everyone, I have part A and part B in an assembly. Is it possible to have part A displayed as shading with edges while part B displayed as shading only? I have tried combined stated, played with view manager, but so far can't do it. Your help much appreciated. Cheers Sandy
Hello everyboby, I am curently designing a folding knife and I would like to use external references for the blade both in the open and close position relative to scale of the handle, could you please advise me on how to do so ? I don't know if it is possible to reference a sketch relative to 2 different geometries Best regards
Hello everyone and welcome to another blog post in this multibody blog series. This is a mini-post based on a question that I received: “If I have a designed a multibody model, how can I save out a single body to STEP , .STL or any other format?” The answer is pretty straightforward and involves either the remove-body feature (see blog post #10) or construction bodies (see blog post #13) or derived models (see blog post #12 and later). Method #1: Remove all other bodies using the remove-body feature Export(“Save A Copy”) the model to your desired format Undo the remove / delete the remove-body feature / suppress the remove-body feature Method #2: Set all other bodies to “Construction body” Invoke Export(“Save A Copy”) the model to your desired format Open the “Options”-menu in the “Save A Copy” dialog and ensure the Construction Body checkbox is unchecked Finishing the operation will then only save the remaining (non-construction) body The problem here might be that you need
(Remove a body versus hide a body vs delete body vs deleting/suppressing contributing features) Hello everyone and welcome to another blog post in this Creo multibody blog series. Today’s topic: Various way to “get rid of” a body and their differences Let’s have a look at various concepts that you might want to apply depending on what you want to achieve. Creo offers the following: Hide/Show a body As with other objects you can use show/hide commands to control the visibility of bodies. This is just changing the visual appearance toggling the display for a selected body and does neither remove the body object from the model, nor its geometry or mass “Consume a body” in Boolean features Boolean features have a Keep body option, to control whether the tool bodies should be consumed in the operation or whether a copy of their geometry should be used for the Boolean operation. Consumed bodies are shown in the body folder depending on the tree filter settings. “Remove bod
Good morning. Wondering if anyone can help me with something for my programming guys. We are in process of moving to Creo 6 for machine programming and one my guys noticed when he is doing a standard drilling cycle, pecking, or tapping that the parameters for the tools selected are being auto-populated by a relation and not leaving the parameter tab yellow, signaling to my guys they still need to select the right pre-made drill parameter file for the operation. The auto-populated amounts are extremely high cut feeds and spindle speeds. The concern here is if the auto-populated amounts get forgotten and not changed it could be bad. In Creo 3, which we use now, it does not do this and leaves the tab yellow with empty cut feeds and spindle speeds, even after the tool is selected. We can then go and select a drilling parameter to use which will fill in the proper feeds and speeds. I'm wondering how I can eliminate these auto-populated relations tha
Hi, Please can anyone help me. I have developed a main assembly model with number of sub assembly and parts. Sub assembly ID is available in main assembly pro-program, but part ID is not available in main assembly proprogram. Can you please help me to find part ID in main assembly pro-program to continue the relations. Thank you.

Does anyone have any guides/tips on how to set up coaxial cable in Creo Cabling? I know there's a way to set up multi-conductor and ribbon cables, but was wondering if anyone has done coax-style cable. In a second, somewhat related question, I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how they would model the cable as pictured below. I was able to model it, but I used a lot of curves, sweeps, and a helical sweep in order to do the coiled area. It was a mess and I feel it should have been a simpler process. This model just represents a coax cable between two offset connectors with a service loop.
I have an extrusion created from a sketch. If I make any modifications to the sketch, all of my strong, locked dimensions somehow get changed to reference and all new weak dimensions are populated everywhere and all my previous geometry is lost and I have to start dimensioning everything all over again. I'm about ready to throw my computer across the room.
I have found plenty of helpful guides for creating wires or cable bundles within Creo Cabling, but I can't seem to find any information on creating Coax-style cables, where all separate conductors/layers run along a single axis. Has anyone created coaxial / RF cable spools that can help me? Thanks
I recently switched from Creo 4.0 to 6.0 and when that happened I can no longer find the options to change the spin center of the model. The spin center changes if I use the MMB, but if I use the 3D mouse the part always spins at the part origin. I have SPIN_CENTER_DISPLAY, SPIN_WITH_ORIENTATION_CENTER, SIM_DISPLAY_IN_SPIN, and SIM_PP_DISPLAY_SPIN_CENTER all set to "no" but the spin center never changes. How can a CAD software package not be compatible with a 3D mouse?
I am having the users delete the c:\users\<username>\.wf folder as part of the upgrade to Windchill 11.1 and Creo7. One user cannot deleted it even after rebooting. I had an IT admin try and he sees the file but he also gets a message that the file cannot be deleted saying the file does not exist. Any suggestions?
