Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello,   In Windows 10, if you maximize Creo's window and move it to the second monitor, the screen will appear white. (CREO 4.0 M120, Creo 6.0.3.0 occurred)This problem does not occur on all PCs.I use the same hardware (DELL T3360), and the installation location and the config I use are the same.The same DVI cable used for the monitor.   PTC has reported this problem in SPR9604897, but the Status is Closed.The customer must switch windows through Windows + D or F11 to resolve the white display.This is very inconvenient.   Please let me know if there is an appropriate action on this issue.our attempts are reinstalling the graphics card driver, reinstalling Creo, and using graphics as the win32_gdi option.But the result is the same.   Can anyone please tell me what to do.   Thanks, Warm Regards, SeonHo Cha

I would like to see all the edges in solid geometry but I see that the color for edges when in wireframe is white which is a terrible contrast for a white background.I've searched config options under display.  I've also searched all the other areas of the Options setup.This must be easily done, but I have no clue where to find this.

Hi everyone, I wanted an opinion about the best practice for annotating models that were generated using top-down techniques.  So I see there is a potential to publish annotations in the master skeleton model and then copy-geom these annotations for use with design and documentation of the target parts.   Typical scenario would be if I wanted to share the hole pattern and its dimensions across various models. The copy geom mechanism does this quite well and I have a sketched point pattern that can be propagated as a reference pattern in the target parts.  However, dimensioning the locations of the holes in the multiple target parts would be a waste of time if I could simply "show" the dimensions from the master model on the part's drawing (or part's MBD combination state).   But it doesn't seem to work very well, in my opinion (Creo 4).  It seems the annotations have to be specifically tied to the copied geometry otherwise they will not be added to the pub-geom

Hello PTC Community,   I need help with something I am trying to do in my drawing. I am using Creo 6.0.Let me start by describing what I am trying to achieve. I have an anodized sheet of aluminum that gets cut and then has an engraving operation done in the middle of the part to show a patterned design, a logo, and text. This is done with a laser which requires a DXF file as an input.I have the outside geometry defined by the part, which will become a tool path for the laser to cut. In the middle of the part I have a sketch showing an array of rectangles, a sketch showing an elaborate logo, and another sketch with basic text (using Creo font font3d). All of these features need to be filled which I have done except for the text as I cannot get the text to fill. In the part I filled the other two features using the "Fill" feature from the surface menu. These need to be filled because this is how the laser knows to remove the area inside the defining geometry and not just the outline

Hi, is it possible to change the material in the operation setup with a parameter? I attach photos.   Thanks

i'm busy working on a drawing and the section in the part are labelled sensible names so i know what they are. however in the drawing i want to use standard letter convention. does anyone know how to set this up? thanks

Hi, I have difficult to define a surface/volume regione at 3D part with cylindrical geometry For example ( in attached file), I would like to apply a bearing load on a surface regione ugual to sum of width of two bearings. can you help me about it?   Thank you.   Have a nice day    

  Hi Creo users,   I have a 3D model part and I have created a sectional view (still in part mode i.e. View- Section- X Direction).   Can I create a sketch (.sec) out of the sectional view I created above?   Your input would be appreciated.   Thank you   Sandy

I want to create a hole table for the top view and another one for the bottom view, independent hole table in the same sheet. Is this possible? I tried but didn't work...

Hello Community,   I need some help with my DXF export.  I have a client who is requesting a DXF of a part which also includes a sketch.  Long story short there is a part profile and then some additional information contained in a sketch for the part.  The sketch contains locating geometry for manufacturing purposes.  The problem I am having is when I export the data to a DXF all of the information contained in the sketch is blurry or muted.  The detail around the physical part is clear and scales properly when I zoom in.   Does anyone have any insight as to what is going on and how I may fix the DXF export?   Thanks, Mike

I've devised a milling sequence which will make my part, but I would like what I've done criticized for my choice, and sequence, of methods. I would post an image of the part and then list sequence ie. mill window, face, rough, profile, finish and include tool choice. Cycle time is not really an issue, but I guess I worry that what I'm doing may not be best. CNC Mill is a Sherline 2000 running under LinuxCNC.  I did the Post with GPOST and it has worked fine with other parts.   If this is reasonable to ask, how should I post my topic?

Why is it not available for download on https://support.ptc.com/appserver/auth/it/esd/index.jsp? Or is it related to a limitation on my account?

Hello you Pro-E usersIs it possible to make a hole with Gassthreads G1/2 (14/")I work with Pro-E windchill 5 and have no colleges to ask it to.Greetings from BelgiumChris

I have a round feature that is throwing a geometry check when modeling the same underlying geometry created differently. The round appears to be there and accurate visually. I am looking for an explanation of the root cause of this error. This is a simplification of a much more complex model that includes the same geometry. The production model uses a mirror part geometry as only half the part is explicitly modeled. This is the only geom check in the model and I have not been able to get rid of it. I have tried datum reference surfaces for the mirrored boss but that did not resolve the error. Does anyone have any insight into why this error is generated?   1) Both models (Creo 4) use the same absolute accuracy and are included here for reference 2) Both models share geometry that is congruent 3) Only the model that mirrors the 180 degree revolve feature throws the error (mirr_part_geom_check.prt)   The error is:   Set cannot be constructed on the highlighted pair of surf

Hi Guys,   Using Creo 7.0.2.0 and EMX 13.    When I create a moldbase using EMX, and accept it, It creates a Style State VIS001, which is always wire frame. This is driving me nuts.    Anyone know how to stop this from happening?   I don't want any new style states created.    Creo 3 and EMX 9 did not do this at all.    Thanks, Jay

I have the need to toggle some sketch dimensions to either driven or driving automatically based on a parameter. Can this be done in Creo? I am new to Creo so any responses would be greatly appreciated. I can easily do this in Inventor (which is what I normally use) so I would assume it could somehow be done in Creo.

hello, i need some information, which module is best adapted to design parts for 3d printing? I thought about creo direct but I don't know exactly its potential.   Thanks

I'm trying to create my own Creo Assembly Interference menu because of the gaps in the Creo Global Interference Analysis - Exclude Skeletons and Other Improvements. I've got it working pretty well except when the user rotates the model the highlighted models and/or interference will not stay highlighted when the user rotates or zooms the 3D Creo model. The out of the box Creo Interference Analysis is able keep things highlighted while moving the 3D model.   For the VB API, is there a way to keep the models/interferences highlighted while the user moves the model?   Here's the VB example PTC provides: 'Analyzing Interference'======================================================================'Function : showInterferences'Purpose : This function finds the interference in an assembly, ' highlights the interfering surfaces, and calculates ' the interference volume. '======================================================================Public Sub showInterferences(ByRe

Hi, I'm working on an Excel VBA tool that imports a lot of pvz files into Creo and saves them as .asm's. Works like a charm when I do this by hand (obviously, these are not real CAD models but facet geometry). If I run the code below, I get a Type Mismatch error on te line starting with Set Model = session.ImportNewModel... The weird thing is Creo actually imports the pvz, because if I do File > Open > In Session, I can see and open my example asm (testjaap.asm). Does anyone know how I can get the model opened?? I tried all kinds of things, but nothing works so far... Thnx!Jaap code: Sub import_pvzs()Dim asynconn As New pfcls.CCpfcAsyncConnectionDim conn As pfcls.IpfcAsyncConnectionDim session As pfcls.IpfcBaseSessionDim model As IpfcModelSet conn = asynconn.Connect("", "", ".", 5)Set session = conn.sessionSet model = session.ImportNewModel("C:\local\test_buildassyfromtextfile_transformation_matrix\TEST_ASSY_A0120069, Box Packer\A0133910, CRASH CAMS - Cabinet Module.pvz", EpfcNew

hi   I am getting a model save error while i am saving the simulate model. any solutions

Hi guys, I did a resolve for my main body and in the sketch, I make it as a cone, as shown in the picture. But after the model is completed, it does not become a cone, instead it has a flat surface rather than a pointy shape.

Hi Everyone,   What is the function of the references collector in the Geometric Tolerance ribbon?  I would have thought it controlled the attachment of the geotol but that is done through the "change reference" command available when the tolerance is selected.  Picture attached showing the specific button I am talking about.   Thanks! Brian

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask you how to couple two plates in a mechanism. As you can see in the attached image, my intention is to move plate 1 and make it so that when I touch plate 2, it moves downwards accordingly. It's possible? Thanks, Matteo.

Hi everyone, I have a customer who created an assembly with parts that have different units of measure. Is there a way to know the unit of measurement of all the parts without having to open them one by one? Another thing: once I know what they are, is there a way to change the unit of measurement of these parts without doing it one by one? Thanks, Matteo.
