Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello, I'm asking help to know if there is a way in assembly to make constraint play on values of a flexible element. I have a 6DOF robot arm saved as an flexible asm. To place it I'm currently making his base's origin concurrent with the floor's one (cf. constraints.png). In order to make it looks like the right position, I change each angle of rotation he had (which are all 6 flexible elements) degrees by degrees which is painfull (cf. flexible elements list.png). Regarding this issue, I want to know if it's possible to add an other constraint on the robot arm, this time with gripper and make both of his constraints change the value of the flexible element instead of changing all by hand.PS : I'm a using Creo 11 

Hello there,Is there any similar methods to run a native python or .cpp file in creo as like we do in Unigraphics NX ?I am trying to connect to a creo 9.0 environment , from external command prompt as like creoson, but after that can i pass the creo toolkit commands to creo via that terminal ? 

Is it possible to download old PTC software during Sustained Support? Unable to find old datecodes of expired PTC products on Software Download web page. Is it possible to download installation files for products which are expired and no longer part of Standard Support policy?

Hi Creo Team, While performing Dynamic Time analysis should the mass normalization parameter  sim_massnorm_modes in Config.pro be set to 'Yes' or does the Dynamic Time analysis automatically sets the parameter to 'Yes' when running. Regards,GS

I have been trying to find an answer to this question but nothing I have tried so far works. I have an issue where I can not pull the Windchill browser window to the front above all of the other Creo windows. I'm currently using Creo 7.0.8 and this is happening to all users who are currently running Windows 11 (but now Windows 10). There doesn't seem to be any way at all to move it to the front so we have to resort to moving all Creo windows to one monitor and the Windchill browser to another monitor. I suspect that this has something to do with the Windows 11 window manager but even the settings that appear to fix other applications do not fix this issue in Creo. Anyone have an idea what I can try?

Hi,I am trying to implement ProMdlReadonlyIgnore with reference to article CS398373, as I am unable to upload parameters while it is in Checkin state. Untill Creo 7.0.11 I was able to do it, but same action in Creo 10.0.5 is demanding me a checkout. By referring article CS398373 I figured we have to use ProMdlReadonlyIgnore(I suppose not as a custom API) but PTC provided. I do not see any document in Creo Parametric TOOLKIT API Wizard .Can I get some help here.

Vers. 10.0.5.0Creo program has stopped using the config options i've had before, specifically inverted zoom shown in picture. I am unsure which is correct for the zoom option i want (Yes or no) however i have tried changing the config file to both options and it has not changed zoom direction and uses the default scroll wheel down = zoom in & scroll wheel up = zoom out.The only notable difference i've done recently is closed the program improperly by closing the pc but this has not changed the config files for me before. Any advice is very appreciated!Solution:Using the link provided and testing what config.pro was being loaded, it turned out to be start up/working directory. Reselecting the working directory with the config.pro solved the problem. 

Is there an event that occurs when you click on the top item in a CreoUI table?

Hi, hope someone could help me how to set up config.pro file or any other way I could sole my issue with Creo interface.My first problem is how to setup Layer tab width on creo startup or when open new work file , ( as every time minimizes for every new part file ) ( see attached image )Second problem I need help with is how to setup line thickness? I would need a less thick selected line, and more thick general lines in 3D model , as this lines are so thin and barely visible on 4K monitors ( see attached )Thank you in advance! Stefan

Hello, I have applied an appearance to a model for carbon steel. I added the appearance by highlighting the whole part, then selecting the desired appearance. Where the issue comes into play is if you modify the part in any way, it will change the cut/intersected surfaces back to the default generic/grey appearance while it needs to be the new carbon steel appearance. Is there some sort of setting to fix this? Please see example below.   

Hi!Recently we had a problem with updating views on drawing regarding AFX profils. The views do not reflect the changes made in the 3D. We are forced to manually update all the views for each drawing. Since we have hundreds of drawings per project, this takes an enormous amount of time. And normally, it used to work perfectly fine before. For the past few weeks, it hasn’t been working anymore. The variable auto_regen_views is set to ‘yes’.Has anyone else encountered this issue recently?Thanks for your help.

I'm using Creo 7.0.2.0 and working on implementing Model-Based Definition (MBD) at my company. Are there any specific config.pro or detail options that should be set or adjusted to better support MBD workflows?

We are new to MBD. How do we create the MBD format? Can we use the 2D format? Please share any link and youtube or videos.

Hello,When I make a drawing of a part, we are making it two pages as the second one is same for all including general information. I have a question. Can I make a .frm file and make a drawing with that format to have 2 pages? I do have .frm file for the first page for general title block and another .frm file for second page to insert after manually creating second page at the drawing. What I need create a two page .frm file and when I call it at the beginning it will create desired two page drawing without need of creating second page afterwards.Please ask if it is not clear for you. I will give my best to explain it better according to your questions.Thank you.

Please let me know if there is a good method for creating a winding model when creating a conductor model.Using a helical sweep allows for the creation of a winding with a consistent thickness, but since the coil height is 18mm and the wall thickness is 12.5mm, bending the model created with the helical sweep will cause interference with the coil. If you have a good method, please let me know.Coil SpecificationsOuter Diameter: φ50mmInner Diameter: φ25mmThickness: 18mmWinding SpecificationsWire Diameter: φ2mmNumber of Turns: 13 turnsWinding Arrangement: Wrap around the coil at 115° intervals, with 3 wraps.Gap Between Each Turn: 5°(Calculation: 115° * 3 + 5° * 3 = 360°)ConditionsThe distance between the winding wire and the coil is not constant, resulting in a zigzag shape in cross-section.(Some winding wires will be closer to the coil while others will be farther away.)The winding wires do not overlap.

Building a decent sized harness that will have a few places where things get spliced, found this video which give me some information on a way to do it...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1Ff4-zHkbA Few things I'd like to know is one is this the best way to add splices to a harness? Would there be a way to do it without adding another physical part to the mix? I have not verified this but doing it in this way would create a new wire number (W-1,W-2 etc) for each new wire that comes out of the splice which would show up as individual wires on a to from table in a drawing. Would there be another method that would call out all those wires as one wire number but still allow multiple gauges? If this is the only way then I get it Creo being Creo. I just find it hard to believe that there isn't a way to splice wires without adding another solid body to the harness assembly and just doing it right in the harness menu.

Hello, I am using Notebooks, Relations, and pro program to configure top level General Assemblies. The problem is, I keep getting the following error when regenerating one of our top level assemblies (blurred out some of the numbers): WARNING: More than one common interchange group found.More than one common interchange. Attempting to replace with xxxxxxxx_INT.Pro/Program replace of component xxxxxxxxxxxx (M94) failed in Assembly xxxxxxxxx.Aborting regeneration due to failures executing Pro/Program. The notebook relations to drive parameters are similar to what you see below Starter_name & Starter_Number are parameters. Starter_Number is the part number in windchill 11.0 commonspace. pro/program example is shown below  The issue is that we have a new interchange assembly that is set up correctly to swap these starters. For some reason, Creo wants to use an older interchange that is not set up correctly, but has one of the models inside it. Is

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.8.0While trying to set up ModelCheck, the instructions say to go to "To configure the Creo ModelCHECK settings, click File > Options > Environment > ModelCHECK Settings." However, that menu option (Environment) is not available to me.How do I get File > Options > Environment to become available to me?Here are the errors that I facedNone

I have a part with Appearance State already defined, how do I "link" that appearance to the assembly? Context:  I already defined 3 appearance states of a part by assigning colors to various surfaces (for texture map, finished product color, and the default model color). In the assembly, is there a way to quickly switch between these Appearance States of the part? The appearance state of the assembly seems completely independent of the part's appearance. I figure it is to be done via layers or representations, but had zero luck. Thank you.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.6.0Unable to find where Creo Chromium-browser-cache is located for Creo 11.0.6.0 on the client to be able to clear it at every Creo start.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.8.0Basically I’m trying to learn how to create a hole feature UDF with pro program embedded in it where pro program would be prompting user to read values from a text file which would create a different size hole each time the UDF was placed. If I had a part model that had 3 different size tapped holes, could I place the same UDF 3 times but each time read the text file (modified with new values) to create a different size hole (8-32, ¼-20, etc.) Or is this not what Pro Program was intended to do?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.3.0We would like help understanding how to edit a Comfort Angle file (mca) for a Manikin comfort analysis.We are trying to correlate the PTC provided zero gravity file with NASA documentation and getting results that don't quite make sense.

When placing a view in a drawing, the boundary of the view is much larger than the actual solid part.  I think it is referencing some datums or ref geo in the view.  Is there a way to get the view to be proportional to the actual solid body in the view?
