Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hey all,   I use PTC CREO 4.0, I would like a help.Create an assembly, which has a family table where it varies the length of a tie. This tie is in flexible because it is used in other assemblies.     The question is, I created a drawing for the generic assembly and whenever I open the other items on the family table, I cannot link the drawing of the assembly with the models on the family table.   Below the drawing created for the generic assembly.   And this is the error that appears when I try to open the drawing of the generic assembly by a model of the family table.      

Hi forum,   how can I hide the X/Y/Z coordinate system that appears bottom left, when viewing a part/assembly?

Using Creo 5.0 and no matter what i do i cant seam to hide the solid pipe center line after making pipes in the model using the piping tool. I tried PIPE_SOLID_CENTERLINE and set it to no. That made no change. I hid all the piping lines and that makes no difference. The only way I can hide the center line of the pipes in my drawings is to hide the Solid pipes them self. There are many drawings i want to see the solid pipe just not the center line. I'm at a loss that should be an easy setting to change.  Please help.

Experiencing a 30+ second delay while working in Creo Parametric   Clicking the "open" button on the toolbar causes the delay before the dialog box appears (opening any file from "Recent Files" has no delay) In an assembly, clicking the "Assemble" button from the toolbar causes the delay before the dialog box opens. Clicking the "View Manager" button has the delay before the 'View Manager" dialog box opens. In a drawing, right-click "Sheet Setup" browse for a format causes the delay.   Creo Parametric 7.0.3.0 - Windows 10:  This is a new computer, I don't know if this is a Windows 10 issue or Creo issue.  Previous computer was Windows 7 and Creo 6.   Has anyone had this issue or have suggestions on how to troubleshoot it???  

Hi forum,   in our company, assemblies seem to be created in Creo in a medium grey shade by some default Creo setting. With this grey color, contours and lines in Creo can be easily recognized even if, for example, "Shaded with Edges" is selected in "Render Mode.   In Creo View, however, these default medium grey parts are always shown completely black, and any surface details are hardly recognizable. If render mode is set to "Shaded with Edges" in Creo View, even the edges are not visible at all, since both surfaces and edges are just black.   What is the reason for this differing appearance between Creo and Creo View, and what can we do solve the issue -- that is, how can we ensure that the standard Creo gray is not shown as black in Creo View, but in gray as intended?

I would like to make copies of an imported part and only change one color. However if I modify the color of the copied part, the same color in the original part also changes.. I do not want to simply want to repaint the whole part with a new color by selecting all surfaces because its a complex part with different colors on a lot of surfaces.  

I am using Creo Parametric 3.0 M190We are getting a series of fatal errors on Mary Fry's machine. This has been a debilitating condition on her computer and need some technical help. We are losing design work and starting over and haven't found a rhyme or reason.Here are the errors that I faced Fatal Error encountered.

I believe this has been addressed in the past but I can't find a discussion that is pertinent. We're using Creo 4.0, M090. Users in my company will re-use an old design, modifying it to suit a new situation. In the process, probably after a save, Creo will create a part file whose name is a random string of characters, for example   "d938ei1k61ho5l23kmnenkfti6.prt.1"   These are rather large files, many MBs larger than anything else in the directory, and if you are curious and attempt to open one, Creo will crash. I'm guessing that this behavior is associated with what version of Creo the model was created in? Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this behavior and/or how we can avoid it happening?

Hello,   I am trying to create a drawing with dimensions in mm to 2 decimal places for tolerance purposes. I have one dimension which is 24.00 and when I set the number of decimal places to X.XX it displays 24 instead of 24.00. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I am using Creo 4.

Hi guys, I am trying to start using the framework extension with Creo 7. I am building a simple frame where there are 4 profiles connected together for the frame's top and 4 legs connected at corners. I am able to do joints for the top but when I try to connect the top with legs I get error message asking me Overwrite existing join? No matter what I do I am unable to connect this profile with existing joint to another profile to the leg.I watched some YT videos and there presenters are able to do what I want. What could I be doing wrong?Thank you.

I am creating a new drawing format and in the table where I show the file name I am using the parameter &PTC_WM_NUMBER. So if the file name is 123456abc.prt it shows up in the tile block as 123456abc.prt.     I want to find a way to remove the extension .prt or .asm and just show the file name "123456abc".

Hi there,   how can the browser cache be disabled in embedded chromium browser? Some sources say, that You just can open Chrome and disable it via settings -> more tools -> developer tools -> Network -> "disable cache". But this seems only to work for the "real" chrome browser and has no effect on the embedded browser.   In the embedded chrom(ium) browser only refreshes the base page (e.g. test.php) and its included javascript (<script src="test.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>) but not javascript files, that were included afterwards ( document.write("<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"my-lib.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>'); )   any help would be appreciated. Thanks /me

In Creo 6.0.4.0 I can run Live Simulation without any problems but in Creo 7.0.2.0 I can only assign constraints and loads as the Simulate 'button' is locked. Without adding floating license the constraint and loads icons including Simulate icons are greyed out. Anyone experienced this issue.  

I have a part in one of my BOMs that I don't have access to modify the parameters of. The parameter being referenced is TITLE1, but for this part in particular TITLE1 is blank and TITLE2 contains the actual part name that I need. Is there a way to override this without breaking the relations in the table? Can I change the parameter being referenced for only this cell?

Hello, thank you for the opportunity to participate in this forum. I hope that this isn't a redundant question.. I am using Creo 5.0. I am using the base manufacturing program - I'm not sure what it is called (NC?). We also have Expert Machinist but I am not using the application. Does the base software include machine tool simulation?   Thank you,   Barry Parker

Hi all, I've done a fair amount of searching to identify opinions & processes, but really haven't found much on showing iterations on drawings. I saw one point (Mike L) for including the full version on a drawing and one (David M) removing all Windchill data from the drawing. I am interested to hear if anybody has arguments against putting Revision & Iteration on a drawing vs. only the Revision ( Rev. A vs. Rev A.4). Another issue would also be putting the Lifecycle State on the drawing.   I know a case for only a Revision on a drawing is that I can make iteration changes without a new drawing. If a lifecycle state changes due to workflow and I don't have the iteration or Lifecycle state on that drawing, I do not have to print/publish a new drawing.   If I have a Lifecycle, Iteration or other Windchill attribute on a drawing, I can republish for an update without requiring a CAD Author to make the change. (This can also be managed automagically in a workflow).  

hello . while i was drawing i accidently closed the Creo but fortunately there is a file that i saved on the desktop. I tried to continue from where i saved, but i couldn't because i could not find model tap, so i can not run function " Revolve" and finish rest of the works.  On the picture, i think where i drew red circle,  there should be "Model Tap" . IF  anyone knows about it , please help me because i need to practice Creo for my exam and yet i have spend more than 2 days for figuring this by myself, and somehow i found this websites just now so i am posting this.....

Hello all, I'm looking at a build and hoping to get some feedback on hardware: Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X (16-Core) 4.7 GHz Turbo System Memory: 64GB DDR4 3200MHz Graphics Card(s): 1x PNY Quadro RTX 4000   I'm currently running Creo 4.0 and get bogged down having a large assembly open.  

Alright, so I'll do my best to explain this annoying issue, so bare with me and I'll respond to any questions. I will try to load any pictures later that my boss approves.First, let me describe the part. For simplicity's sake, It's basically a block with a square cutout in the center of this block. It's really more complex than this but after some elimination of features, I have figured out what's causing the problem. There is a slot that follows the center cutout's profile. The slot is 0.078" wide and rests 0.035" - 0.055" outward from this center cutout. I know the slot is causing the issue as when I suppress feature, save part, close the program, re-enter the program, and open the part, this issue still occurs.What is happening is every time I open this part, it shows this center cutout is filled in. Also, It still shows the edge that would be there as if the cutout was still there. Once I relocate the insert tab in the tree, edit a feature or move a feature, etc etc, the graphics f

I am using Creo Simulate - Release 3.0 (connected) 3.0 M070Looking for guidance on how to use stress and/or deformation results from an assembly of parts... and then use those as an input to a more detailed analysis of each component piece part.

Hello Jose   What is the best number to contact you at PTC?.

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 4.0 (connected) 4.0 M130Hi Team,I am using Visual Studio 2015 to create a function to loop through Creo parts and store them in a vector/map.When I try to include #include & #include into the solution, it throws up many errors.I did check the similar issue raised on PTC(https://community.ptc.com/t5/Customization/toolkit-c-include-failed/m-p/578733#M7858), but even after following those steps the errors still remained.
