Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi, I have run into this issue before and haven't been able to find the setting to fix the issue. I have a workstation with a RTX2080TI NVIDIA graphics card running Creo 4. The surface in the attached image should show a single line drawing in the view in the upper right corner of the image.Anyone know how to fix this and what the config.pro settings should be?Thank you! Don

I'm trying to remove a part simplified rep but it says it's referenced by drawing I have in memory. I checked the drawing and removed all references to the rep. Every view I have references the master model and there are no erased views that may point to simplified rep. Am I stuck with this rep in the model? Any help would be appreciated.   Thanks  

I am trying to use the blank from one sheetmetal part to make a new part.  The goal is to have a reference link in Windchill between the two parts to help insure that both models will be considered when a change is needed to one.   I tried creating the new part from an inheritance feature of the current part.  I was able to create the inheritance and unbend all bends.  However, when adding the new bend, the bend feature fails when the bend crosses the boundary of the old bend.   Thanks, Kevin   Here are the models.

Hi Can we import NURBS surface from Rhino, convert to sheet metal for manufacturing? can split it into many smaller sheet metal? flatten? Attached rhino file:  

In CREO 5; How do you show annotations (e.g. axes) by drawing view for one component in an assembly?  There is a right-click option in the model tree to show dimensions by drawing view, but not annotations.  Thanks.

looking for some help i was busy making some changes in a part with the assembly open in the background. i don't know what happen, maybe a caught a keystroke, but my model fell over and the undo button would not undo whatever had happened. in creo how do you close a part and discard the changes from the assembly? effectively putting the assembly and part back to before the changes where even started.   thanks

I want to utilize an offset section that I created within my assembly but when I go to apply it within my drawing the option is greyed out. This seems like I'm missing something obvious here, is this a limitation of Creo? Is it because it's a 3d view and not a planar view or is it because i am using a shaded view? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

I'm looking for a simple way to toggle all the components in my simplified to be the opposite display. Master rep items set to exclude and exclude items set to master rep. I have an assembly the way I want it but I have A LOT of trial and error / options / unneeded components that would like to get rid of or evaluate their need.  

I've been struggling to get Creo 5.0 to cooperate with section views in my assembly model drawing.  The assembly model contains a shrinkwrap.  When I initially created the drawing, Creo was able to create section views with no problems.  But now that I've gone back and made modifications/additions to the assembly model, Creo is suddenly failing several of my previously created section views.  Mind you, not all of my section views are failing, only a couple.   Creo is giving me the familiar error message, "Cross-section creation in "new_view_XX, on sheet X aborted".  I've tried all of the suggestions I've seen in these message boards to no avail; 1. Making sure the "Include quilts" box is checked. 2. Offsetting a plane from the section plane.   In the drawing configuration, I have the following set: 3. show_quilts_in_total_xsecs is set to "yes" 4. crossec_type is set to "new_style". I've also tried switching the values for these two options and nothing

I have a drawing format that I am creating. I have it all set to go but when I add it to a drawing, the only way to get the text to fill in is to add "&" to the text in the pulldown. How do I get the "&" to be included in the symbol so I don't have to add it all the time? Thanks.

Hello everyone I have a simple part with an internal diameter driven by a family table (changing it from 13 to 28 mm, see picture) Is it possible to have one manufacturing file updating the A diameter and consequently the TPs of the internal part? - holemaking (different drill diameters) - internal turning area (different boring tools)  - different distance from the center for the profile used for cutting the part     Thanks  

I want to extrude away some threads on hardware models that I imported as STEP files.  When I go to do this the "remove material" option is grayed out.    Questions: Why can't I extrude cut imported geometry? Is there an error in the model that needs to be repaired before I can do this? Is there another way? Thanks, Bob

Admittedly, "breaking" relationships between Copy Geometry / External References (model / skeleton relationship) should be done with extreme caution and after a lot of careful planning and thought.  It is generally speaking a terrible idea for a truly well planned and architeched Top-Down Design workflow in Creo (my humble opinion)... but does raise some interesting debates on design management philosophy...   So.... WHY would any sane person do this?!   Good question!  The most common reason we have heard "to decouple models for reuse (without the relationship baggage), eliminate accidental changes or make things more autonomous after design freeze or production release, etc... "...    So the "how?" has come up enough that we decided to create a short video to highlight some cool things about dynamically generating Creo Mapkeys using Excel Tables and Power Query... using Nitro-CELL.   Nitro-CELL makes the data in / out of Creo a breeze

Hello everybody,   I have the following task/problem at hand: I have an assembly of several parts which are placed with constraints. These parts can be moved within defined limits (for example on a translation axis). How can i extract the limits and axis on which movement is possible with the help of JLink? The part of the documentation that I think is relevant (chapter: Assemblies and components) does not seem to provide a clear answer. I am using Creo 4.0 M070.   Thanks in advance for your help!!

hi. i'm still quite new to creo parametric and need some advice. i've a drawing with a few views of a part. in the part there is a sketch that is only shown in one drawing view using the layers. is there a way that i can change the line style of this sketch in the drawing view. the thickness and the colour so that i can highlight it? thanks

hi. i cant use the scroll of my mous3 in ptc creo 2.0. i cant make zoom with it. the scroll of the touchpad of the toaptop doesnt work in creo too. the scroll of the microsoft mouse works correctly but in creo i cant make zoom with the scroll. what can i do??

Hi, I've been working on a project to read dimension & gd&t values from a drawing. I'm successful in reading dimension but not gd&t. Could anyone please guide me how to do it? Thanks

The Flexible Substitute feature enables replace a selected surface with another and remove or recreate existing rounds automatically.

The Flexible Modeling Mirror feature enables you to mirror geometry about a reference plane. Note: Surfaces are automatically extended and rounds are recreated at the intersecting edges if they exist.

Need To Create solid cable having bending (radius) restrictions and fixed intermediate hose position, fixed length etc..By which method it can be modeled?Actually one of user is creating brake cable and he is facing routing issue

So we are using Creo 6.0 with Windchill. I need to put ports in my parts. The ports don't change change. I, thinking I was clever, saved sketches of the common ports in an offline folder to reuse. However, if I ever use these saved sketches, Creo deletes them after use. I don't want that. This behavior is obnoxious. (Creo does it with tables too.) I want it to behave like Palette. I'm not allowed to add things to Palette and the port names are generic and will deeply mess up my Windchill workspace. I could save the sketch separately again every time I use it, but that is also more work than I think I should be doing. Is there a way to turn this behavior off?

Hey everyone, I've been working on some automation and techniques related to the Cabling environment, and while exploring these areas, I came across a few questions about Creo's native capabilities.Most examples I've seen will define cables as independent wires. You will have "NEW WIRE_SPOOL"s and "NEW WIRE"s to define an array of wires in a harness model. However, I know its possible to define both cable spools and cable definitions through the NWF file.

The connection string Async = CAsync.Connect(Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, 15) works fine on my systemBut the same connection string throws TOOLKITCANTMODIFY error on other systems when running the built exe file. Why is this happening?
