Bonjour,Dans Creo Parametric 10, je souhaite créer une numérotation d'arborescence multiniveau dans une table. Objectif: obtenir le code "arborescence" : situé dans la première colonne. Exemple :ArborescenceN1N2N3N4N5REPERE N1REPERE N2REPERE N3REPERE N4REPERE N511 10000 1.111 10001 1.1.1111 10001-01 1.1.2112 10001-02 1.1.3113 10001-03 1.1.4114 10001-05 1.1.5115 10001-09 1.1.6116 10001-10 1.1.7117 10001-11 1.1.8118 10001-12 1.1.9119 10001-13 1.1.101110 10001-14 1.212 10002 1.313 10003
I see there is a Progress bar component in Creo UI editor.1. Is it possible to have something like a progress circle in Creo UI editor?2. Or a custom gif that we could display to accomplish showing an in-progress operation?cc @GS_14113977
Hi everyone,I’m working with a sheet metal part in Creo 9.0.10.0 that comes off the roll as a single sheet. It is then bent and cut into left and right terminals. I’m trying to unbend these two distinct pieces in one flat pattern but it fails with "Recommended actions: Merge all highlighted distinct pieces to the model."I came across an article in the PTC Help Center that mentions using distinct areas or disjoint volumes, but it’s very vague. The article doesn’t include any images or step-by-step instructions, so I’m not sure how to apply this technique to my situation. (if it even applies) Has anyone encountered this issue or figured out how to do this?I also see that you can turn distinct pieces into separate models but I'm not interested in this approach. I would like to use flat reps if possible. Attached is a screenshot of a dummy part I made without IP.
As at least until Creo Parametric 11.0.6.0 when making a cut while using extrude or hole (and several other things that cut through geometry) the default is "Blind" and then with some random depth.It would be far more confienient when this is "Through all" by default. This also solves that much engineers do not take the effort to set the depth to through all so the end of the cutout is somewhere outside the geometry (as shown below) So make a config.pro option tho set the default to "Through all" for at least the cases shown below.
I am using Creo Parametric Release 12.4 and Datecode12.4.1.0Our customer imports a DXF file into Creo. Because this DXF contains many entities/lines, the model becomes laggy when they try to rebuild the sketch after import. The customer's workstation is high-end (32 GB RAM, 16-core CPU, 6 GB GPU), yet the performance is still slow. Could you please advise whether they need to increase hardware specs, or how best to process/clean the DXF file for better performance?

Hi,I have 100 part numbers , in which the drawing has to be opened from windchill into creo session and it should run a particular already recorded map key then it should save back into the workspace or windchill check in , When i tried running the dbatch program in native creo, it says license error. My company has customized tools inside creo and its based on floating license i guess. So is there any ways i can link that creo to the dbatch script or i should go with toolkit api commands or trail_file based scripting ?Does these methods other than dbatch have option to run in background or while the system is ideal (after working hours or scheduled time).
Hi All, I have a fairly simple question I hope, but for some reason can't figure it out myself.When I run a simulate analyses on the shaft below I'm reading much higher stress results than what I calculate by hand. But when I run the same analyses on a beam section the results are lower than the hand calculation. For this reason I'm not feeling very confident on the results at the moment. The situation is as followed:The shaft has fixed displacement contraints on the pink surfaces with all rotational movements "free" and also axial movement free. On both outer ends I have placed a planar contraint to make it "fully contraint".The load is a radial bearing load on the green section. The situation can be compared to the fin of a bow-shackle. Below the results of this analysis. And this is the beam analysis:And the results. What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for the help!
We are working on building a Creo application using Object Toolkit Java.One usecase of our application is to execute tasks in background (such as authentication flow, upload opened model) while displaying progress (using animated gifs) on the custom UI created using Creo UI editor. As per our observation, whenever we start a task in background by creating a new Thread in Java, it blocks the currently open UI dialog i.e the UI dialog completely freezes and doesn't display anything.The result is same for all modality types for a dialog - MODAL, MODELESS and WORKING. Sample code snippet: uifcComponent.CreateDialog(UPLOAD_DIALOG, UPLOAD_DIALOG); uifcDialog.DialogFind(UPLOAD_DIALOG, UPLOAD_DIALOG).SetModality(DialogStyle.DIALOG_STYLE_WORKING); uifcComponent.ActivateDialog(UPLOAD_DIALOG); Thread backgroundThread = new Thread(() -> { // Background tasks // Destroy dialog once background task is complete uifcComponent.DestroyDialog(UPLOAD_DIALOG, UPLOAD_DIALOG); }, "threa
When editing a family table in excel. Excel is asking for a location to save the file after editing, rather than saving to the temporary file and exiting to the family table. Therefor the changes are not made to the table. This is intermittent for some, consistent for others. Creo 10, Windchill 4, Office 360 2507
Folks I have an assembly with two components in Creo 10.. Intially, i had a subassembly instead of the shrinkwrap part but these boolean operations wont recognize assemblies. The cylinder represents the cavity that we are restrained. the part represents our final 3D print part that fits inside the cavity. So I want to cutout all the external geometry from the tetras part outside the cylinder volume. I tried picking either one as the modified models/modifying components without any results. Tried different sizes of cylinder and no good. I wonder if i should use the "create part intersect" which also didnt work. Any ideas please share thanks
Traditionally, our company uses a revision block on 2D drawings to show the current revision and list all changes from the previous version. As we transition to model-based definition (MBD), I'm trying to determine the best way to display revision history directly within the 3D model. My first thought would be to use a table similar to what we do in 2D drawings; however, I am currently using Creo 7.0.2.0, and editable tables are not added until Creo 11 from what I've seen. My second thought would be to have separate combined states for each revision displaying everything that has changed, but if a change is made to a dimension that is not initially displayed in the model, such as basic dimensions, how should that be documented for approval purposes? Another thought would be to use "Is/Was" reports, but this seems to be tedious, and I had the same question about what to do with dimensions that are not initially displayed. Would anyone who has experience with this be able to we
Hi, I’ve been trying to identify the stress distribution while twisting happens through simulation but haven’t been able to get accurate results so far. Could someone please assist with setting up or running the analysis? FYI: all parts are plastics(PP), motor will be 10 nm, the blue highlighted area are screws, and the red highlighted area is load acting.Let me know if you need any.
I am trying to follow the steps detailed here to learn how to create a add-in for Creo 12.0 using the Creo Toolkit C++:https://support.ptc.com/help/creo_toolkit/protoolkit_plus/usascii/index.html#page/creo_toolkit/get_started/Using_the_Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Solution.html#However, my computer will not let me unzip the file where it is located (it is within program files), and when I unzip it somewhere else, the protk_install_example can no longer access the files in protk_appls. I've verified that the C and C++ compilers are included in my version of Visual Studio 2022.Any ideas on how to unzip this file and build it successfully?
When I drop another UI component into a ProUITree, how do I make it sit exactly inside a property-sheet cell? I’ve tried hard-coding the size and position, but nothing lines up. ProUITable snaps the component to the cell automatically—can ProUITree do the same thing?
Hello Team,-Creo 9 with Windchill.I'm looking to create a mapkey to quickly open a drawing of a room that's already open.I've done a lot of research and i can never find a working solution. please don't redirect me to an alternative solution.I know that a part can have several drawings or be included in other drawings. However, in my case, 90% of the parts created have only one drawing, which has exactly the same name as the part, with .drw instead of .prt.I've created a relationship: DRAWING = PART_ID+ ".DRW".I now have a parameter with the right value.Since copy and paste doesn't work in mapkey commands, is there a line of OS script code that you could put in a mapkey to say, open "parametre drawing"?I work in a company that doesn't allow third-party applications to be installed.Thank in advance.
Hello, I used a subscription to simulate.Budget restrictions...I only have Creo 3 with Simulate "Light".I'm being asked to simulate a chassis in Step.I'm afraid Simulate won't allow me to convert surfaces to shell pairing and perform fatigue calculations.What do you think? Is it better to refuse?
Sorry in advance if this looks confusing but I'm wondering if someone can shed some light on this. Looking to route a wire from off the screen at the top left to the center of the picture (where the wire is currently going) is there a reason it's not following the remaining section of the network (in black) to get to the connector? My only guess as to why it's doing what it's currently doing is because the intersection where it should go is to tight of an angle based on the bend radius of the wire. If that is the problem is there a better way of fixing it besides adding more points in my network? Really wish the network would be more straight lines and then let the wire dictate the curve. Thanks
HelloI am trying to simulate the motion speed of a mechanism operated by DC motor.DC Motor Rotation Speed varies with the input torque as attached graph. But it seems impossible to define Motor Rotation Speed by using measured inputtorque in MDO.(There is only servo motor, whose speed does not depends on input torque) In this case, are there any method to simulate with the DC motor? I can calculate this motion in excel or mathcad, based on Torque value at each position angle from creo simulation with servo motor.But It would be great if this could be done just in Creo, or with a simpler workflow
Hello community, Is there an automatic method for restructuring a multi-level assembly to a single-level assembly? Thanks
Hi Everyone, This is for general discussion for the possible cause of "fatal error" while working with CREO. I would like to know from tech guys that what are the major reasons for this particular error. Please if any body knows, please do share your views. This might be helpful to many. And please give the reasons priority wise. Highest Priority cause to lowest priority cause. Regards, Jignesh
How can i create a datum plane parallel to screen orientation? Default coordinate system is oriented in the default orientation as i enter in an empty part model. I want to create a datum plane parallel to the screen, while the coordinate is in the default orientation.
I am using Creo Parametric 2.0 M250Hello PTC Support, please provide a download link for PTC Creo 2, latest datacode.
Hi All,In one of our machines, we installed Creo 12 with a Node locked license. Generated the license based on the host ID shown in the Creo installer. Creo runs perfectly. After a few days, it stops with the error (-9) invalid host ID. When we check, the previous host ID is no longer shown. It shows a whole different Host ID. Any assistance would help. If not, we may have to escalate to PTC.Regards.
Good day,I’m trying to redefine the default coordinate system that Creo assigns to a part or assembly.Background:I have a main assembly representing a vehicle, which is divided into multiple subassemblies — each assigned to a different designer. A recurring issue arises when a designer does not use a skeleton model: the parts or subassemblies do not assemble correctly when using the “Default” constraint in the main assembly.With a large top-level assembly, it becomes quite time-consuming if every designer has to manually constrain each part or subassembly to the correct position.Workaround Tried:One approach I’ve used is to create a new coordinate system in the desired position, export the part/assembly as a STEP file, customize the export to use this new coordinate system as the default, and then reimport it. This works, allowing me to use the “Default” constraint correctly — but it’s not an efficient process.Question:Is there a more direct or recommended way in Creo to redefine or re
