Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello,When I execute any Toolkit application in Drawing mode, and when I am opening corresponding drawing Model from Model Tree, Creo gives Traceback error of Type Crash.Kindly share your thoughts.Thanks in advance.Regards,Sagar D.

Hi guys,   With the floating window quick icon boxes in Creo 7 that show up near your cursor.   Id like to customize what shows up in the floating quick icon windows, and share with other users. Where are these files saved? is it in the creo.parametric.customization.ui file like the other custom ribbons I create? Thanks, Jay

I am trying to generate a hole geometry feature that is rotated angularly around a specified central axis. When I do this operation, the resulting hole features are displayed, but they are highlighted in blue and do not appear as extrusions into the part. Any suggestion on how I can correct this? (The initial hole geometry was made using a singular place hole reflected about two planes).

Can you show annotations / Gtol's in an External inheritance or External merge model? Original model:     External merge model does not seem to carry the annotations along.   External inheritance model does carry the annotations along.   However, I am unable to show the annotations in the External inheritance model.     Any help would be greatly appreciated.        

Creo is reading the config.pro file over the public network. Therefore, all users have the same working directory. I want to set the working directory folder to the local folder of all users. In addition, I want this to be done automatically, without users doing anything. Is it possible?

I have been using a threaded shaft with RH and LH threads. The design is provided with 2 nuts, each with LH and RH threads. The rotation of the shaft generates an +ve motion in one nut and -ve motion in the other thread. The modeling is done through slot and point mechaninsm with helical sketch (RH and LH respectively),   Looking for better and simplistic ways to simulate this motion in Creo Parametric.

how do I specify in my relations how to control the values of the csys dimensions by a mass properties report for a specific rep?   this is what i've done so far: I created a cg csys referencing the default acs0 csys   used the following for relations: $d438=mp_cg_x("","ACS0","")$d439=mp_cg_y("","ACS0","")$d440=mp_cg_z("","ACS0","")   all this works great as long as its the master rep, but I need the value to show for a simplified rep.   so i'm guessing somehow there has to be a way in the relations to tell it to get the value from a specific rep to drive the new CG location.   thanks everyone

HiWe have some fairly large assemblies which we want to show on a drawing.The problem is that on sheet 1 we use a simplified rep called Default with a BOM and BOM Balloons.On sheet 2 we have a simplified rep called Inspection_side with several components hided.We want to use the numbers from the BOM on sheet 1 to show up on Balloons on sheet 2.OTB it's not possible, but have any of you some good ideas??

Hi,   I am developing a application in OTK C++. I want to deploy it on client's machine. But I don't want user to go to 'Auxiliary application' every time, selecting creo.dat file and registering the application.   Currently I know a way- doing it first time and using option - Save the Auxiliary Application User Interface. But the process still needs to be done atleast one time manually.   Is there any way, with which we can add a ribbon, buttons and these ribbon will be there even in new session by any other way, like running a .bat file or .exe or some thing simpler solution than Save the Auxiliary Application User Interface.   Thanks

Hi everybody,   I am installing Creo 6.0.2 into a school lab. Tha lab has Windows 7 and Windows 10 PCs. License server is a Windows Server 2008 R2.   The W7 PCs can reach the server during the installation and everything worked without problems. W10 PCs can't reach the server, both using server name or server IP address. If I use the server name, nothing happens. If I use the IP address, it says that server is unreachable. But I can ping the IP address of the server from a cmd prompt, and the ping works fine. Windows firewall is disabled on W10 and I set up rules on 7788 port and the xtop.exe, parametric.exe, and other executables as described in this article.   Is there something missing?

Good day.I am working with the VB API in C# with Visual Studio 2015 and so far I have been successful in starting a new AsyncConnection, loading some models, adding a couple Action Listeners, etc.However, I have never been able to properly end a connection:Every time I call IpfcAsyncConnection.End() . the Creo Parametric session simply crashes, and I have to force close it.This seems so simple but I can't get it to work. I have tried closing windows, disconecting first, etc.Has anyone experienced the same? Any sugestions?Thanks,Pedro.

To all,   We have been going thru the process of adding annotations into our models for vendors to be able to see what they need to check. The problem we are running into is when the file gets exported as a step file, and we go to open it, this information is not in these files. Is there a setting that needs to be selected for the step file creation, to be able to see these when opened in CreoView? We are currently using Creo4.   Thank you.   Dennis

Hello,   I've run into a Problem that I can't seem to figure out myself. I'm going to describe what it is I want to do first and afterwards I'm going to explain the error.  I want to run a mechanical Simulation based on a thermal Simulation. In order to do that I have a MEC/T Load in my Modell. This routine worked well for me for many Modells. However I came across a problem where I only need to connect certain surfaces of the model. I used the "Surface Region" tool to separate some of the surfaces. After having done that I defined a "Free" Interface for the Areas which I do not want to have connected. I've also created a thermal interface for the same areas with a thermal resistance because otherwise it would result in the "Some interfaces have incompatible types for structure and thermal analyses" Error, which is already explained in the support Article - CS95882. However having defined the free interface and the thermal resistance interface the simulation results in a

All,   I have a simple sub-assembly with a sliding mechanism constraint.  I want to alter/set the 'maximum limit' of my constraint using a parameter.  I want to test 2 conditions, one where the slider moves between 0 and 300 and another where the slider will move between 0 and 500.  If I could control the max limit with a parameter I could switch between conditions easier than editing the constraint.   Is this possible?   Thanks, Mike Creo 4.0

We have a very large assembly structure that we need to use as a background for an installation of sub-components. We need to show the geometry and be able to position subcomponents against the structure. One person is doing the structure and another is doing the subcomponent positioning. Neither file is in their finished design so there are daily changes to both. We want to show the structure as 0 weight in the subcomponent drawing file. I am guessing that we want to use copy geom over a skeleton or shrinkwrap. Do we want internal or external copy geom? I am thinking external copy geom so the subcomponent designer can control it from the larger assembly without the larger assembly designer having to do the copy geom update. Any advice would be appreciated as this is a time critical design that is nearing completion and the designers are clashing over their pieces.  

Greetings:In using Inventor/ Solidedge/ Solidworks if you have a hole in a pattern you can toggle from a  simple drill hole to a c'bore, tapped, c'sink, etc. very simple- very fast- very convenient, does Creo have this ability as I can't do this without deleting the pattern and starting over, which is inconvenient..  sorry very new Creo user.thank youFrank

Hello everyone,   I am a newbie of Creo toolkit. I am planning to develop a toolkit application to make some of Mechanism modelling automatic. I am not sure which tool I should choose, Creo Parametric TOOLKIT (C language) or Creo Object TOOLKIT C++(C++ language). My Creo version is 4.0 M090. Per my understanding, Creo Object Toolkit may provide a better environment of development, but I am worried about the support for Mechanism. It looks there is few functions in the C++ library for Mechanism, so I still need to call C functions if I use Creo Object Toolkit.   Could you help to provide any suggestions?   Thanks, ZR Liu

See image below:   The config option "display_dwg_tol_tags no" turns off the 4 lines for the tolerance tags however I also want to turn off the other side which shows: Scale Type Name Size   Alternatively since I really just want to export a clean image of a drawing, if you have any other way to create an image that can be clean, please let me know (I don't see any configuration options in the save as .png dialog)...?   Thanks, Lawrence

For cut out in boolen opertion must we need two solid bodies? Can we do this from cutting surface body from solid one. I have one surface model & I want to cut out from solid ? is it possible?   Attached file is my query.   I want to cut that surface part from solid part in assembly. so that that will create die of that surface part . and I have only that surface part and I cant convert that into solid. if I have both solid part then I can do this. but because of having one surface and one solid I'm unable to do this.   could anyone pls suggest solution? 

Hello everybody, I was testing some files with pattern tables linked by relationships and parameters in the Creo 7.0.1.0 release   If I go to modify the parameters DIST1 and DIST2 in version 7.0.1.0 they don't change and compare the message you see in the attached photo.   In version 5.0.6.0 and 6.0.4.0 everything does not work correctly.   Because? I am also attaching the model.   Matteo.

Hey there! When I am trying to merge two parts together using the creation method of "merged solid" using shrinkwrap, it seems to be missing. There are only two options; surface subset and faceted solids. Wondering how to get it back as an option?

ProArray allocated in the ProTkdllFunction like this:     status = ProArrayAlloc(1, sizeof(ProArgument), 1, (ProArray*)outputs); for the function's output arguments. These output arguments need to be free'ed once after being used.  The question is: How can the Web.Link caller do the ProArrayFree() or ProArgumentProarrayFree()? 

How to resolve this error. It happens every time whenever I try to create a new file. 

Somehow when I change the lighting on the model (change lightbulb position, intensity) it doen't update the values to the drawing. Is it possible to insert the same values to the drawin view? And how canit be done?   lightning situation in Model View   inserted iso view on drawing

I would appreciate some insight from those of you that have experience with the importing of native NX data into Creo.  I have a native NX assembly at one time I was able to successfully import into Creo 6.  Unfortunately, I am now required to go backwards to Creo 4 due to customer requirements.     When I attempt to import into Creo 4 it imports an empty assembly showing only a import feature.  It doesn't bring in any of the components or sub-assemblies.   Naturally, my next step was to attempt re-importing the native NX assembly using Creo 6 again attempting identify if the version change was the root cause.  Much to my surprise, I am now getting the same result as list above in Creo 4.  Needless to say this is maddening. It was successfully imported previously in Creo 6. Now I am getting different behavior. I am unable to identify what has changed.   Does anyone have first hand experience with this type of phenomenon using the import
