Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello everyone,   I need to find the geometry that fill a complex solid (see image below). Anyone knows which is the propper methodology?   Thank you.

I have some complicated simulation templates I set up in Creo 2.0 which are controlled by lots of parameters; some in the local model, some in flexible components.  To demystify what all the options are, I collected everything into one on-screen control panel; an annotation feature with flat-to-screen text.  It includes all the user adjustable parameters, some instructions, and various outputs.  Parameters that can be adjusted are surrounded with a box, so it's clear which parts are meant to be edited (e.g. "@[&parameter_name@]").  This is a lot easier than browsing the parameters dialog, since that is also filled with lots of boilerplate PDM stuff, and your typical novice user wouldn't know how to find component level parameters that way (or even that they should).   The control panel worked great in Creo 2.0!  If on the "Annotation" tab of the ribbon, you could simply double-click on any of the boxes, and be prompted to edit a new value for the param

Helo, I have imported an Inventor assembly but the Datums, planes, axis etc. there not visible.    I have tried to setup the import profile, File > Options > Data Exchange > import and open profiles. I have set up a new profile using Template (creo), unfortunately with no effect. If Edit definition > IDD the import part, with the component, surface group the are also the datums , but they aren't visible in the model tree. As shown in the picture bellow. Is there a procedure to make them visible in the model tree? Is there any other more proper way to import the files?   Thank you in advance  Apostolis

Hello, I recently switched from Creo 3.0 to Creo 4.0. I have this problem when I copy features from one part to another. Original references of copied features from the first part could not be recognized after Paste special>Advanced references in the other part in the assembly. For example I am copying 6 holes from part_1.prt to part_2.prt. When I make "Paste Special" I need to change ONLY first reference "Surf:F6 (EXTRUDE_1)" but other references of axis need to be unchanged (below picture):     On picture you can see lost original references - small red dot...   Please how to resolve this situation/problem in Creo 4.0?   Thanks!      

Hi 1. can i do a static stress analysis simulation on 2 wlded parts (i have added the welding feature with the "application" module out of the understanding that maybe this is the only way CREO can do the simulation)- if not, what is the best way to do it ?

Creo 2.0 m100 (Welding): Creo allows me to toggle between using the ISO Welding Standard and the ANSI Welding Standard. But can I tell Creo that I want to use an UPDATED VERSION of the ANSI/AWS Standard? Is there a way to import newer versions of the Welding Standard support files into Creo's support directory structure? (Note: I am aware that existing default weld symbols may be edited or replaced with user-defined weld symbols, but I am looking for a way to change the core ANSI Standard's definition across the board within Creo to conform to a newer version of the ANSI/AWS Weld Standard.) Thanks in advance.

How to provide weld symbols in drawing. can anyone help me.   Regards Raghu

I have a pattern in a family table the does not work correctly.  The group is shown below in red, but the round does not get pulled through to all the pattern members.  The model below is the generic.     Below is another instance from the family table where the pattern worked for about half of the pattern, then stopped.   I would appreciate any thoughts.  Thanks        

After opening, creo parametric crash with following trash back logs:   Datecode : 2014190 Process I'd : 7512 Exception access violation thread : 8560   You can find attached image for reference

Is there a way to make CREO 3.0 display the Model Properties --> UNITS in the Information bar at the bottom (or anywhere else for that matter)? It would be nice to see [mmKs] displayed somewhere on the information bar, or [IPS] or whatever the case may be. When doing an assembly, it is extremely annoying to have parts that do not match to completely ravage the work just because one forgot to change the units properly. Thank you, Colin.

Hello,   Creo 6 or probably does not matter.   Using Broken View: Is it possible to extend splines per pic 2? Pic 1 is default.   Wayne

Reading through the Creo documentation a bit and noticed this line: "Features in an intersected part should not directly or indirectly reference an assembly cut." On this page of the doc: http://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/usascii/index.html#page/assembly%2Fasm%2Fasm_five_sub%2FAbout_Assembly_Features_in_Part.html%23   I thought that sounded like an interesting concept so I just did a quick test despite it sounding like it was going to be impossible. It actually seems to work. I assembled a basic cylinder part by itself, created an assembly-level hole feature, then intersected it with the cylinder to make it a part-level feature. Then I activated the cylinder, added another hole after Assembly Hole 1, and used the surface of the first hole as a reference.  Anybody got any idea why the help files say to not do that? It seems like it'd be an amazingly handy feature, but I can certainly see it causing circular refs or crashes if you were to start rearranging the mode

Community,   I would like to be able to erase the drawing names from memory in the pull-down under Name.  Selecting the "-" will not erase the names from memory.  Can this be accompolished?  I am using Creo 6.0.0.0, and thanks in advance.    

Hi,   I am trying to compare the flow in different ducts. The duct inlet is smaller in area than the duct outlet. The way I want to compare the duct is that I am applying fixed pressure at inlet and outlet in all variants of the duct and comparing the mass flow rate in each duct for same pressure boundary condition.    The problem is my duct is smaller at inlet and bigger at outlet, So I can't apply a higher pressure at inlet and lower pressure at outlet. So I applied lower pressure at inlet and higher at outlet. Please see attached results and geometry images.  Due to higher pressure at inlet and lower at outlet, my streamlines return back immediately to inlet after getting out from the inlet. My velocity and pressure plots looks reasonable but it seams there is some problem with flow direction. Can anyone explain this.  Also my mass flux at inlet is positive, which should be negative if the flow is entering in to the duct at inlet. Please see attached images.

We are in need of a consultant who is very experienced in the use of the Piping module to review designs already done and provide guidance going forward with additional designs. Please send an email to me at the below address if you are or know someone who is capable of doing this work on a  short term contract basis. We are suing Creo 4 m080 with WIndchill 11.0 m030 CPS16.   Contact information:  looslib@centrusenergy.com  

Hello, I would like to catch the first GOTO in CL file and output Z first (only for the first goto). In the CL I have: SPINDL / RPM, 7957.753876,  CLWRAPID GOTO / 835.8168781015, 779.7292319751, 30.0000000000 In the post-processed file I get (yes G1 because I forced not tot have G0): G1X835.817Y779.729Z30F9999 But I would like to have 2 different lines like below (I would like to have F1000 for example): G1Z30F1000 G1X835.817Y779.729Z30F9999 (I can repeat the same line like it is) Thanks for your help.  

Hi,   In a drawing, I want to identify the notes that are boxed. Kindly suggest any API to get the detail of a note, if the text in a note is having box around it.   Thanks.

Dear all!Does anyone know how to create mapkey to assemble multiple parts / assemblies to active assembly at once? I want to add parts in "zero parts" rep with default placement option. Zero parts means in this case that all parts in assemblies are excluded and part features are excluded too. Mapkey does not have to create these reps to parts cos' these are already created. I would like to copy set of part names from Excel to Creo at once, not to type name after name. When parts are added to active asm, reps can be changed to e.g. master rep and Ioaded to workspace.In our company we have this kind of mapkey but it adds parts as included and it is really slow to get parts visible. This mapkey opens new window where I can paste set of name w/o prt or asm extension. This would be very useful if I want to review just certain components in tmp asm from a very large assembly. We are using PDM Link and Creo parametric 2.0. I do not want do add End Item to WS and create reps for it. We have ce

Hi, We are trying to fetch the parameter value which is present in tools -> parameter using API, we tried using ProParameterValueWithUnitsGet but we are not able to get the value. kindly suggest API to fetch the parameter value.   Thanks

Hi! When I put insulation on my pipe as shown in pic (insulation is extra thick because of the visualization), it doesn´t put insulation on the fitted elbows, tees och valves.  How do I make this happen? I use non spec-driven piping.  Thankful for answers!  Regards Johan   

Hi,   Does anyone have some experience with Teamcenter and Creo integration and if so is there documentation available?   Also, does Teamcenter handle Creo data well?   I am asking from a Windchill point of view and it is unclear whether this integration should be done by the TC PLM provider or WC PLM provider into or with Creo.   Appreciate the help.

For anyone out there trying to do complex repeat regions relations on a part drawing, three new report parameters have been added to Creo Parametric 5.0 that will make your lives much better!  These really open the doors to doing some pretty cool things that simply couldn't be done before on a part level drawing. &mdl.name &mdl.type &mdl.User Defined Here is the official help documentation link: http://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/usascii/#page/whats_new_pma%2FDetailReportParameters.html%23

Hi, we recently upgraded from Creo 2.0 to 4.0 and from windchill 10 to 11. Since the switch, when we regenerate an assembly for example, we get the conflict window "Skipped regeneration of Read Only object" on some parts, but not all. These parts are not Read Only, they are not marked as Read Only in the windchill viewer. These parts have not been released either, they are "in work" on windchill. The only way to regenerate these parts are to check them out manually. Would anyone know how to fix this? I don't want to just hide the conflict message, I want the parts to regenerate. Thank you, Joey
