fatal error in creo 3.0 while doing flat pattern

Is it possible to create a looping Mapkey?  I want to run a mapkey in each item in the model tree until I tell it to quit. Thanks

Does anyone know the code to repeat block for doing specific action in trail file/mapkey?

What could be the problem here? Creo says I cannot delete parameter, there is no windchill, no relations, no chid or parent for parameter, it is not referenced from annotation, nothing in the modell tree,  nothing. It seems to happen randomly and I cannot modify it either. The paramter is restricted by table though. Using creo 6.0.6.0    

Hi, today you can learn in the 6 minutes: How to display different assembly positions on a drawing

Hello Friends,  I am new in Creo Customization , I am struck in creating of drawing template from ProDrawingFromTemplate function , I passed all valid arguments but still it returns error of PRO_TK_E_NOT_FOUND , I need help to create drawing template , I have attached code screenshot for your reference 

Hi, I have created a 3rd model and I have created relations to drive its dimensions through excel. I have called the excel into creo through Excel analysis tab available in analysis tab and created different Analysis feature so that it can take value from the excel & after that I have used that analysis feature in the relation so that it can drive its dimensions.   But once I changed the location of the Excel than the relations are not working.  so, how to resolve this issue did I need to make new relations or how can we make the excel file location independent so that it does not affect the relations created inside the creo enviroment.   Any suggestions are welcomed...   Regards, Shubham Mehta

Hi, I want to fully automate the creo like through UI i will enter the value to the modify the parts & assembly. As a UI I have created user interface in the excel and currently I am thinking to import the value from the excel only.   My main concern is that through excel i want to automate such that it should automatically update the assembly also its related drawing (with its dimensions) . In drawing it should change the scale of the 3 views that is top right and front such that it should look like filled drawing rather than for eg if i had A2 sheet size and in that there is bigger box than the drawing looks completely filled with particular scale of the views, while if i change the parameters of the box such that its smaller then the previous one then it should automatically change its scale so that drawing is completely filled.   So can we do this VBA or what can be the other better option to do this whole process automatically through a script.   Any responses a

Hi, I'm working with Creo 3.0 and inside my main assembly I have the structure like that:- Main Assembly    - Component 1    - Component 2    - Component 1    - Component 2    - Component 1    - Component 2....All "Component 1" (also "Component 2") occurrences mean the same part for that name. The only difference is between constrains of those components and their placing inside the main assembly.I'd like to put Component 1 and Component 2 into new Subassembly e.g. Subassembly_1 for each occurrences but I cannot do this because of name failure (I cannot create another subassembly with that name). So my dreamed structure is something like this:- Main Assembly   -Subassembly_1       - Component 1        - Component 2   -Subassembly_1       - Component 1        - Component 2   -Subassembly_1      &nbsp

Hi, i work for a multi-national company, we have sites all over Europe. All of these sites need access to Creo at one time or another. The company has a number of Creo licenses which are managed by a license server at one site. These are floating licenses which are taken on a first come, first served basis, or at least that is what we used to think. There are too many instances just recently, where i, or one of my colleagues lose a license we had. One minute we are working away without a problem, the next we receive an error saying license is lost. Then we have to start phoning around the group, to see who is using what & whether a license can be closed to free one up. We are concerned that once all the licenses are taken, & another user comes along, that somehow that user takes priority over anyone currently using. I don't anything about the license management software or how it works, or whether is can be configured to give a certain user a license at the expense of another.

Hi,Unfortunately I often have to work on STEP files in my company. I noticed that sometimes I cannot grouping some of the components in my model tree while working on STEP files. When I choose the components which I want to group and click the right mouse button in order to choose the group options I cannot see this option - there's no group option inside menu. I constrainted these components and then tried to grouping them but the result is the same - there's no group option inside menu after choosing components and clicking right mouse button in order to display menu. Do you know why is it like that?Thank you in advance for all replies! 

CAD close event is required.

Hi, I downloaded Creo 4.0 student edition a few days ago and had no problems, I even used it an hour ago and had no problems. I just tried using creo again and when I try to open creo I get the error - "Unable to get required Creo Simulate license. Please contact your sales representative." Haven't found much online so I thought i'd ask here. Any help is appreciated.  

I'm using Creo Parametric 8.0 and one of our vendors uses Creo Elements/Direct: they typically send me both .stp and .pkg assembly files and I'm running into this issue regardless of what format I import their assembly from.   Initially the import process works very well; I have a lot of success importing and opening these CAD assemblies without too many errors. I will then save a backup of these assemblies (save as-> save a backup) either locally or to our companies cloud servers. Naturally I save it in Creo 8's native format (.prt and .asm files) so I don't have to go through the process of re-importing.   This is where the problem arises: after closing the assembly, rebooting CAD or my computer, etc. and then I go back and re-open that assembly I will open the top-level .asm file and run into a ton of parts that have completely lost all of their orientation/position information inside the assembly. I'll have hundreds of tiny PCA components floating out in space as well

Is it possible to add comments down in the add features section of apro/program? I've tried /*, !, !* , and none of them seem to work - thecomments are gone next time I come in to the program.Any help is, as always, greatly appreciated. -- Lyle BeidlerMGS Inc178 Muddy Creek Church RdDenver PA 17517717-336-7528 Fax 717-336-0514 <">mailto:-> - <">http://www.mgsincorporated.com>

Hello!   I made ONCE one annotation to a part in WF 4. The reason was to document some Part attributes like a Link to Website, manufacture number and thinks like that. After I done this, each one open of a file, independent from where brought a error window. That is way, I have deleted the annotation. But.. the window still to go on FOREVER. What is this for ugly behavioral and how to stop this?

This is reference to the previous thread that helped me solve with I was trying to do at the time, but am now having issues with: https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Hiding-specified-value-in-a-BOM/m-p/730146#M119621   I'm using the following relation: IF asm_mbr_cagecode == "2233"my_cagecode = " "ELSEmy_cagecode = asm_mbr_cagecodeENDIF and have &rpt.rel.my_cagecode in the table column.   I have also added a relation to display the quanities of bulk items as AR (as required) using the following: IF asm_mbr_type == "BULK ITEM"qty = "AR"ELSEqty = rpt_qtyENDIF while changing the QTY column to &rpt.rel.qty.   When I have both sets of code in my relations, nearly all of the quantities update as they should but a handful of them will have blanked quantities and cage codes now. If I remove the first relation for the cage code then it fixes all of the broken quantities. For some reason the two relations are conflicting with each other it seems.

Hi, I need to design a rubber part 'very elastic, that is between 2 wood parts in an assembly.Is there any tutorial to help me to learn how to make this part flexible and adapt his geometry, depending on position of wood parts ?Thanks

Hello to all,I created an assembly that contains a flexible component (spring_compression.prt) and I created two snapshots.In 3d everything is updated correctly when I change the view from one snapshot to another.In the drawing instead I created two views that recall snapshots but the spring does not update.It appears as it is in 3d.What can I do?I don't want to create a family table because I have more complex mechanisms, with many positions to put in the 2d and they would become too many to manage ..Attached are the files made with creo 6 and an image.Thank you,Matteo.

This is for Creo 4-M040. I moved some components from an assembly (OA-1) to a subassembly(SA-1). The original assembly has family table. I have two issues:If the subassembly SA-1 is suppressed in OA-1, it will also failed as a standalone assemblyThe subassembly SA-1 were call in some instances but not others. if it is suppressed in the generic, it will failed in the instances

I have been using CREO for some time now.  I just upgraded to CREO 7.  I have always created a sketch before a extrude or revolve.  In CREO 7 when I create the sketch then a feature linked to the sketch, it bundles them into one.  Is there a config setting or work around?
