Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Is there a way to have the speeds and feeds that are put into a tool you create in a library automatically be put into the "Parameter" of the sequence you want to use based on the tool info? Seems like the tool has the info relative to it but when selecting the tool I want to use the data for the parameter has to be in the saved "Parameters". Sorry if confusing. Trying to create a tool library for a new machine we are getting, any tips out there for dealing with tool libraries??? Also high speed machining parameters???Jeff

can anyone give insight on how to have creo automatically output feeds and speeds based on material.

We have a BOM table that includes a column for Cage Code. Now management has decided we do not need to put the Cage Code in the BOM. Our BOM tables have many filters applied, so replacing the table is not the best way to go. I am building a new BOM table for new drawings, but we have a lot of drawings already created . Is there a way to delete a column from a table?   We are on Creo 4 m080.  

Have you downloaded Creo 4.0 yet? One tool you’ll want to start using right away is box selection, available throughout the product and in idle mode. With box select, you can make the selection by simply clicking and dragging, then invoke commands such as hide, for example. It’s easy to use, but in this post, our expert offers a few tips for making the most of box select.Creo 4.0 now includes 2D box selection throughout the product as a selection method in idle mode. You can now use 2D box selection for most of the tools that support object/ action workflows. Here are a few tips:• 2D box selection in Creo honors the selection filter settings and only selects the type of objects defined by the selection filter.• If you press and hold Ctrl while using box selection, then objects are added cumulatively to the selection.• To remove objects from the selection, press and hold Ctrl and then click the individual objects.• 2D box selection in Creo also uses common direction-specific behavior.o

Hello, I am attempting to check a drawing into Common PDM and there is a part coming with it that is listed as an "optional dependent".  However, when I open the reference viewer for the drawing, this part is not listed as a child nor a parent.  Therefore, why is the drawing pulling this part with it?  Thank you.

Hei Community, we're searching for a suitable c++ library to perform REST requests and parse Json to integrate into toolkit dlls. Are there any recomendations?   We tryed cpprest/casablanca from microsoft already. We build a sample client without creo and everthing works fine until we integrate it into our creo dll. With this library the dll is not able to be started in creo anymore.   Thanks for your suggestions.

Is there any way to place a UDF on multiple CYSY in CREO 3 w/o having to do them one at a time?

Hi, this is a simple concept but hard to explain. How can I create a drawing view where the background is clipped away? Here's a visual example... If I have this model...   And I create a section view using the front round surface, cutting out the disk. How to get a drawing view, where I am looking at the part from the front so I can see the rectangle and triangle but not the disk? The application is actually a more complex assembly drawing view, I just used a part model as an example.

I posted this in Assembly ... but think it also applies in Detailing since BOM and Excel come up quite a bit.   We did a webinar last week with Elite Digital Enterprise to help educate people on Microsoft Excel Tables and Power Query functionality.   The Webinar was focused on Bill of Materials (BOM) Data, covering the problems typically encountered using conventional Excel Approaches (Cell Address/Named Range References) and why Excel Tables and especially Power Query should be more widely used/adopted.   Creo BOM export techniques and options were also covered as well as a live example of exporting Creo BOM data to Excel Tables (via Nitro-BOM) and Manipulating them with Power Query to automatically summarize costs.   We hope you find this webinar useful.   Intro to Excel Tables and Power Query for Creo Users!  

Does anyone know how to configure the Creo Performance Advisory to show all types of Creo Crashes (ehem..I mean, "premature Exits") regardless of cause (logging error, memory, etc) by build?   I would like to use this as a tool to see which build code/ship code is most stable for us but what I did find didn't seem to be comprehensive nor reliable data.   Thanks!

I successfully installed CREO parametric 4.0, however when I double click on the creo parametric 4 icon on my desktop, the loading sign appears for a few seconds, then nothing happens and never launches at all. In the traceback file, an abnormal report is as follows: The trace creation timestamp is: Mon Apr 20 22:27:46 20The executable build timestamp is: Thu Jan 01 08:00:36 70The datecode is: NAThe pro machine type is: NAThe process ID is: NAThe traceback type is : CRASH-------------------------------------------------Exception EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION has occurred in the thread 19968.   Please help me with this, I downloaded it on my laptop which has no problem, but on my desktop this happens. I disable firewall during installation. When I reinstalled it, the problem persist. My graphic cards are: AMD Radeon R5 330 and Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 which are compatible. Neither am I running any VPN network.

Hi,   I have a part with multiple coordinate systems used for placement purposes. When I save this part as a STEP file, Creo lets me choose just 1 coordinate system for export, but I would like to export all coordinate systems. What am I missing? I use Creo 2.0

Hello all,   Is it possible to show one particular coordinate system in one view, and which is not effected by the show/hide CS check box?   I could use layers, but that still does not solve the problem which the show/hide CS check box. Because if someone else wants to print the drawing, they first have to check the CS box to show the correct CS. Otherwise the drawing will not be complete.   This is necessary for a assembly drawing I want to create. With the CS in place, the person viewing the drawing knows how the component is placed in the overall system and in which orientation.

Hello, In CREO 5, I have opened the 'reference viewer' for an assembly.  All the components reporting to the assembly are listed as 'parents' and no components are listed as 'children'.  Is this backwards?  Is the software backwards on this?  Thank you.

Hello,   I have a question regarding placement of features and patterns. When for example, in a assembly have a 1 pattern with holes. I use the pattern to place multiple bolt by pattern - reference.  Then when I change the hole pattern, I get a error message in the assembly containing the bolts saying the pattern is wrong. But in actuality the placement is wrong. As the hole that contained the first addition of the pattern as being removed.   What is the best practice to use bolt patterns and holes?   Why does Creo not first handle the placement and then the pattern? Is this a feature to be added or is it not possible?   Kind regards,   Siege_engineer

Hello. When Ii try import data from ECAD (emn, emp) Creo is crashed... Placement is ok, but outline update is not possible...

I must read values from tolerance Table (for example shaft). Java user guide has following text: All the user specified information for a tolerance is saved in a tolerance table forISO and DIN standards. You can retrieve and set the data for tolerance tablesusing Creo Object TOOLKIT Java methods.  I cann't find this methods and cann't read values from tables. It is the ITEM_TABLE? ModelItems tables = model.ListItems(ModelItemType.ITEM_TABLE); Thank you

I am trying to add surface finish specification to selected surfaces of a model so that the surface finisk specification [dimension] wil display on the 2 d draft drawing. I am told to do this when working in the part model by the following method. Go to main menue, insert annotations, [from drop down menue] select surface finish. Pro E gives window then : I try to follow the instructions to select surfaces/ including them in the references field/ editing the "roughness height" and am unsuccessful at getting the surface finish to appear in the model. I have tried many combinations and still unsuccessful. I can't believe how complicated this needs to be just to apply a simple surface finish note. I was able to get "annotation icon to populate the tree. Thought I was getting close. Tried to do edit and got lost in various tabs [parameters ect] that seem way to complicated for something so simple as surface finish. Why so complex? Will someone please tell me the

i can't wrap my mind around how such a sophisticated piece of software has made editing text and tables so difficult and cumbersome! Tables why can't i use tab or arrows to navigate to different cells? why does it take multiple clicks to navigate to a different cell? how come when i add a line to the table it doesn't copy the formatting and font size from the line before it? every time i add a line, the text goes huge and overflows all over the place Text am i missing something or is there still no way to indent? no easy way to do a numbered or bulleted list (yet they have it on this site... weird!)

Hello, How do you specify the tolerance for the drill depth and thread depth within the standard hole tool so that the hole callout in the drawing, when shown, is complete?  Presently, only the nominal depths are shown in the drawing view.  Thank you.

I'm wondering how companies are keeping Instance Accelerator's up to date.  There are two ways to update them. Which method are you using?1) User manually go into the file menu (File -> Manage File -> Instance Accelerator -> Update Accelerator)  Or a mapkey to do this. 2) Set the config setting "update_accelerator_in_verify yes".  This updates the accelerator upon verify of the family table.Or I guess another way to state this..why would I not use the config setting if instance accelerators are being created?

Is there any announced enhancements to CREO 7.0. Will be any beta test to it. I know it's quite soon to it, it will be released in March 2020. But any news? I found this:https://youtu.be/mtC_SAhV-iY

I am getting a weird window popup when ever I try to maneuver within the workspace window and it is extremely hard to function.  How do I keep this from happening?   See the attached screen capture.     Creo parametric 5.0.4.0 Windows 10 Thinkpad P52 laptop

I have an old properly paid PTC license coupled to a Linksys USB100TX Network adapter which has followed me over the years through a number of changed operating systems.. I moved to a new computer running Windows 10 and  found out that there is no Windows 10 driver for this adapter. Consequently I cannot get the new computer to recognize the adapter and therefore I cannot get Proe setup accept the license file. I have tried to change the MAC address in the properties of the network adapter in the new computer and when I run "ipconfig /all" the old desired MAC address is displayed but when I try Proe setup, it still lists the adapter's original MAC address as host ID. I stopped paying license maintenance 8-10 years ago so I don't suppose it is possible to go back to PTC and ask for a license file with a changed MAC address. Any idea anyone?
