Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 5.0 (connected) 5.0 5.0.6.0I am not able to create the needed geometry. It seems that with the assembly feature creation selections, you are only able to remove material. I need to have a radii at the bottom side of an extruded cut, thus, I can not create the needed geometry. Myself & others have had similar issues on other projects as well.Here are the errors that I faced none

Hi, I would like to ask you if creo simulation live can be used with a AMD graphic card (AMD Radeon RX 5600M), thanks  

Using CP4.  This is probably more of a 3D modeling issue, however, I've labeled it as 2D drawing because that's the final target. Is there any way to create a Total Unroll cross section?  Cutting lines would include an arc, like the attached image.  But I want it flattened / un-rolled along the arc in the drawing. I created an offset section with an arc per the arrached offset section.  It will show the section in the drawing as a true projection.  The un-fold option is grayed out.  Section arrows show up correctly (with the arc).

Hi,I have a problem in Creo Parametric 6.0. I'd like to move a surface finish symbol when I need it. I've completely no idea how surface-finishing function works in Creo because sometimes I can move it but sometimes not. Generally I mostly use Normal to Entity position inside surface-finish config window and then I try to move symbol (e.g. on dimmension line). Please, look on the picture below You should see two views: A-A and B-B. On A-A view I can flexibly change the possiotion of 6.4 roughness symbol (and in effect I can move it on dimmension line) but on B-B view I can only move the 6.4 roughness symbol between the edges. Both views are the sections of the same part. I've no idea how it works and why it is like that. Could you help me, please, with it?Thank you very much for each answer!

Hello everybody, a customer created a series of points for a puncture resulting from a UDF. When making the pattern, the first feature is offset from the point of origin and 4 more repetitions are created. In all there are 5 repetitions instead of 4, with the first one not being centered. I did the same thing again for verification: - if I create a hole normally the stitch series works correctly - if I create the series with fdu that has the hole, the error returns to me (show attachment).   Matteo.    

I currently have a drawing template set up to use multiple drawing parameters (for example, item description, file name, revision, etc). When I create a new drawing using this template, before letting me view the drawing, it pops up a dialogue box for each use of the parameter. So, for example, it the revision parameter is used twice on the drawing template, there will be two different dialogue boxes which pop up which each ask you to input the revisions. I would much rather either input the value into one dialogue box (again, it's the SAME parameter) or be able to open the drawing and then fill in all my parameter values at once (through the parameter option under tools? unless there is a better location?)Is there a way to change this?

Hi all, I have an issue where on a 2D assembly drawing, the view shows lines that shouldn't be there. It's not all lines, some are not visible but some are - see the attached example. How do i stop this happening? It's probably an easy fix.....

Hi, How to save Solidworks datum's turned off in .sldprt file so they don't show up in Creo Assembly when you assemble a native Solidworks file that was saved to Windchill using Solidworks and the Windchill Workgroup Manager for Solidworks?   I have native Solidworks files that the datum's are showing up when the Solidworks part (sldprt) files are assembled in a Creo Assembly.  I'm not allowed to save the layers turned off from creo assembly, as it wants to modify the solidworks part file and creo's not allowed to modify the solidworks files as we are only allowing Solidworks files to be save to windchill by Solidworks through the Solidworks Windchill Workgroup Manager. The datum's are saved in Solidworks file with the display off but they show up when opened in Creo.   Anyone that works in a dual CAD environment have any ideas how to save the sldprt files in Solidworks so that the datum's are automatically turned off in the assembly with out using "datum display filters

I am using Creo Parametric 5.0 5.0.5.0User is receiving a message - "This file has been transferred from a Unix platform to a Windows platform using a non-binary method " and then Creo crashes. To the best of his knowledge, all files were created by the user or other users within the company.Here are the errors that I faced This file has been transferred from a Unix platform to a Windows platform using a non-binary method

I am using Creo Parametric 3.0 M190Looking for an option in CREO to modify the imported geometry exported from Solidworks.

Hi I am having trouble with my dimensions.  All of my symbols both in regular dimensions and in GD&T are bolding in my pdf export.  Any idea how to unbold them? an example is below.  

When I have two linear dimensions that are attached to successive elements, I can "chain" them as depicted in the first figure below (left), by aligning them and using a dot where two consecutive arrow heads should be (below the middle line). I can also do the same when chaining an angular and a linear dimension (see again first figure, on the right) by the same method; this, however, leaves a short part of the linear dimension that goes beyond the witness line (see second figure below).   Is there any way I can clip leader lines, when the arrows are outside the witness lines? Note: I know how to clip the witness lines themselves, but this does not apply to the leader lines.   Any help much appreciated.   Best regards Oblomov Left: two linear dimensions in chain. Right: an angular and a linear dimension              

I have an async JLink application that has been running OK for many years. Now I am testing it with Creo 7 and any 'ExecuteFeatureOps' fail with 'XToolkitBadContext'. I have tried the new RegenInstructions option 'SetResolveModeRegen(true)' but it still throws the error. Has anybody any ideas?

I am using Creo Parametric 6.0 6.0.3.0Need to change Idol time for Creo. In other words, Creo will not releaselicense for a certain time frame and then when Idol for that long it checks the license back in.

Hi All, I am experiencing a strange issue relating to parts showing in a BOM in Creo 4 M140. I have 1 part (screw.prt) with 2 family table members. (2 lengths, screw_L1 & screw_L2). I have Sub-Assembly A with 4 x screw_L1 and 2 x screw_L2 within and Sub-Assembly B with 2 x screw_L1 and 2 x screw_L2 within. I have both Sub-Assembly A & Sub-Assembly B in a Master.ASM. The Master.ASM and the screw.PRT resides in the same folder as Sub-Assembly A ,but Sub-Assembly B resides in a different folder. Both folders are called out in the search.pro config file. When I create a drawing of Master.ASM with BOM table. screw_L1 is listed twice, with the quantities from Sub-Assembly A and Sub-Assembly B separately, whilst screw_L2 is listed only once with the combined quantities of Sub Assembly A & B.    What I am trying to achieve is to have screw_L1 to show the combined quantity, like screw_L2 is being recorded in the BOM.   Anyone any ideas on why the BOM is recording it d

I'm working in Creo 4. I have a parameter numSets, that I define as an Integer. Now, I calculate the value of that parameter using dimensions of the model in the following relation: numsets = ( lenmain - 2 * dxsltstrt ) / ( 2 * diaslot ) - 2  Here's the part that irks me. After the relation has been entered and evaluated, Creo changes my parameter from Integer to Real, assigning it a value that has a fractional component to it. The expected behavior, based upon every other programming language I've used, is for the type of parameter to be left as I defined it and the value be rounded or truncated to a whole INTEGER value. Switching the parameter type is absolutely NOT an acceptable result. Knowing this, I'm going to have to be careful to explicitly use floor() or ceil() to restrict the assigned value. Why is this kind of tomfoolery type conversion built into Creo?

Hello,    I'm trying to perform a simple feature creation opertaion using the wfcWSolid::WCreateFeature function in otk.  The feature element tree has been generated using the cxx element tree generator provided by PTC and is meant to create a default coordinate system in a part. Here is the element tree def:    wfcElements_ptr CreateDefaultCoord(pfcModel_ptr Model) { wfcElements_ptr newElems = new wfcElements(); wfcElement_ptr newElem; CreateElem localElem; otkxEnums localEnum; CollectionHelpers localCollnHelper; /* Element id: 386 : PRO_E_FEATURE_TREE */ localElem.CreateCompoundElem(PRO_E_FEATURE_TREE, 0, newElems); /* Element id: 387 : PRO_E_FEATURE_TYPE */ localElem.CreateIntegerElem(PRO_E_FEATURE_TYPE, 979, 1, newElems); /* Element id: 1964 : PRO_E_STD_FEATURE_NAME */ localElem.CreateStringElem(PRO_E_STD_FEATURE_NAME, "CS0", 1, newElems); /* Element id: 2134 : PRO_E_CSYS_ORIGIN_CONSTRS */ localElem.CreateCompoundElem(PRO_E_CSYS_OR

Hello, we just switched from Creo 3.0 to Creo 4.0 and like to use the new isonormlt-regular.ttf as default_annotation_font and iso as symbol_font. These defintions are set up in a .dtl file which we assign to the ASM, PRT and DRW. Unfortunately the new font is used in the drawing for the text but not for the symbols: On drawings newly created under Creo 4.0, the appearance is correct. In existing parts and assemblies, the representation is also correct when I go to edit the measurement. Any ideas are welcome! Kind regards, Joshua

Hi!   Is there an elegant way of removing details and features from an assembly without getting a pile of regeneration failures?   I am fairly new to Creo, and I'm stuggling with preparing large assemblies for simulation in ANSYS. The assemblies I'm working with contain lots of details that are not of interest in for instance a modal analysis, for instance holes and rounds, and they add unnecessary complexity to my model. If I try to suppress these details, I end up with a long list of regeneration failures, which often lead to the assembly not being imported correctly into Ansys. Going through the list and updating placements and references is extremely tedious.   Ideally, I'd like to remove all references so that the parts are independent and changing one part won't affect any other part. Is this, or something similar, possible?

Hi Guys,   Using Creo7.0.2.0.    If I have a large assembly open, and then try and open up a large drawing, it doesnt come up in front. I have to go to window and pick it.    Is there a config option to force new windows to front? It only seems to be an issue when they are really large files.   Thanks, Jay

I am having a hard time finding the properties when right clicking. It's not there for some reason. Maybe the config.pro needs to be adjusted, but don't know under which category that would fall in.  

PTC documents the following regarding importing sections into sketcher; The imported constraints become strong constraints, and the imported dimensions become weak dimensions. Other weak dimensions are added to solve the sketch.   Is anyone aware of a method to designate entities in a section that will be used for placement references when importing the section into sketcher? I am trying to define some references that the weak dimensions would be applied to upon placing the section. Sketcher throws wacky dimensions when placing the section and I am trying to make that predictable. It would be the sketch analogue to a UDF where placement is predetermined.   The presence of a sketch CSYS does not get used as a reference when placing the section in sketcher. I would think that it would use a csys as a dim ref in the section if present but it has not.

  Hi.   I am modeling what it need to many extrude on single part file.  If I draw many pattern on single part, then modeling generate speed will be too slow. This part must be only one part, and there is limits for divide.    Is there any solution for this problem?  I don't understand why this program don't use multi thread when make many pattern even modify for assembly.    

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 5.0 (connected) 5.0 5.0.5.0 and experiencing "persistence error" while uploading or checking in data into WindChill. Does anyone know how to resolve this error?
