Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi what is the setting to change to get it so the edge of holes are not broken into 2 segments in both creo 3.0 and 4.0?   thanks

Hello everyone!   I'm searching for a way to use conical branches (see attached pic - it's a branch with different sizes for each outlet) in spec driven piping. Since the ASFILE offers "SIZE", "NSIZE" and "BSIZE" it should be somehow possible.   What I tried in the ASFILE (unsucessfully): - Category: BRANCH and Code: BRANCH_REDUCING --> this seems not to work if there is a value for NSIZE - Category: REDUCER and Code: INLINE_REDUCING --> the part can be selected in the "insert Fitting" dialogue, but the drop-down-list for "new size" remains empty (message: no Fitting Name from autoselect). Also tried to Combine BRANCH with INLINE_REDUCING and REDUCER with BRANCH_REDUCING, same result.     Any Ideas?

Hello guys.   I'm learning creo by following model tree of completed prt file example.   I have some questions about sweep cut function,     <ㅡㅡ Top view of a button (Example file)     <ㅡㅡ Bottom(inner) view of a button above.(sweep cut)     ㅡㅡ> Upper blue colored chain is a trajectory curve which is chosen in Example file.    ㅡㅡ> Orange colored line is a cross-section profile which is selected in Example file.   Descriptions below are what I've done.   # I made datum plane above top plane and projected trajectory(blue colored chain in above picture) too. # After that, I activated sweep, and selected a trajectory above. # I sketched cross-section view same with above picture. # Finally, I completed sweep cut, and error message occurred saying that 'One side edge detected.'   In this situation, What should I do?   What is the cause of this failure?   Plz help me...

I created a Default Rep in a part, but now I can not edit it, activate it, or even remove it. Anyone familiar with this problem?

Are there T-slot nut inserts available for ITEM profiles?

Hi All,   I am developing an user interface for protoolkit application by using the creo UI editor. As the creo ui editor is structured in a grid form, I could not set a back ground image in the created application UI. The background image is required to add some labels on it.   Kindly suggest some ideas.   Thank you!

Hi, I've been using Creo (pro/E) for 12 years now. Since the very beginning I always wanted to ask this question.Is the Creo GUI capable of showing multiple open parts/assemblies within a single maximized window (just on separate tabs)? Like ordinary windows softwares do (for instance Draftsight or Photoshop). I usually use 2 Creo shells in parallel on the same computer and it's really hard to keep track of which shell is which unless I use e.g. different background colours to identify them. But then I would need to use 2 separate config.pro-s if I wanted this to happen automatically.Many thanks, Adam

Hi, I have assign material in Creo 3.0 M120 ,but I observes its not changing automatically ,earlier it get changed by assigning the material. On Mass property it showing incorrect values.   Any Solution!!!  

I will like to then I have a drawing open then I start my script, be able to open the part on the drawing orient part in default view and then export a TIFF file of the part.   I can open the part and export the TIFF file, but I can't orient the part.   If I run "window.GetModel().RetrieveView("Front");" there I start my script from a part it works, but then I call this then I have a drawing open:     private static void OrientPart(Session MySession, Model model) throws jxthrowable {    // MySession is the current session    // model is the drawing there the Jlink is started    Drawing drawing = (Drawing) model;                         String FileType = "";    Models solids = drawing.ListModels ();    Solid solid = (Solid)solids.get (0); // first model on the drawing  

Greetings to all.Well my old Laptop finally cooked. I own a seat of wildfire 4 and I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with running a fresh install of WF4 on a modern windows 10 laptop? I found a used dell m7730, win10 pro, i7-8850h, 32gig, quadro p3200 and was considering using it.Yes, I get it that it is "not supported", but is there anyone out there that has done it and can give me some feedback?Thank You in advance

I HATE that the "Properties" popups no longer work for dimensions, instead we're left wondering what to do, then we finally see that the dreaded ribbon has changed and the functionality that we USED to have right there in the field of the dwg is now remote.  Also, sometimes the option to put symbols in a string of text doesn't seem to exist, and I'm stuck cut&pasting from my cheat sheet of ASCII characters to get what I need.  WTEff???   Then there's the fact that in cross sections, it's almost impossible to "Exclude" components now, and even when you can, you have to do them one by one.  Ugh!   Anyone else have these issues?  Thoughts?

Hello everyone!   Please tell me how can I select layout in tab programmatically.I tried the methods SetVisible(true), SetEnabled(true), SetFocusOnDisplay(true) and so on (I use OTK Java, But it doesn’t matter, understanding is important, I think).But nothing came of it.Thank you in advance! Regards!

To base our material choice also on their environmental impact, we are looking for an easy to use tool which gives us some kind of "eco properties index" of a chosen material. (Part of LSA - Life Cycle Analysis). Does anybody know a material data source which gives us this kind of info of engineering materials used in the high-tech, machine building industry?   We have already found Granta Selector, but their info is quite extensive and may be a bit too much for us.  

We use Creo for architectural building projects. As a result, we get a lot of AutoCAD DWGs from the outside world. We make use of these DWGs by importing them in as a feature in a part. Please note that these DWGs are 2D and import in as a curve feature. The problem is that no text imports in. See attached file.   Is anybody able to import AutoCAD text into a feature within a part? If yes, please describe how you're doing it. Please let me know what fonts in AutoCAD and Creo you are using.   Thanks, Steve

Hi All,   We had a big project that we outsourced from a different company. They created drawings for us without telling us that they had Creo 6 all along while our company has Creo 5.  I know the GCRI is limited to only parts and assemblies, is there anyway for us to use their Creo 6 drawings??We get the "cannot be retrieved"  error when importing the drawings.   Thanks

Hi..I want to create general view for orientation of TOP_VIEW ( drawing solid orientation) but getting difficulty to pass matrix.i am creating general drawing view by below API.status = ProDrawingGeneralviewCreate (p_drawing, (ProSolid)comp_mdl, 2, PRO_B_FALSE, pos, 0.2, matrix2, &view);it gives me error due to matrix, So please can anybody suggest me how to pass matrix from drawing solid orientation ( TOP_VIEW).If any sample code is there then it is better to create general drawing view from drawing solid view orientation.Thanks,Prashant Pandarkar

Hi,   can somebody tell me the correct way to show one or more parts of an assembly as transparent in a drawing ?   In the assembly I clicked on "Model Display > Component Display Style > Transparent" and the selected component is displayed transparent. So far so good. Then I saved the style in the view-manager and created a new combined state that includes the new style with the transparent component.   Then I created a new drawing and chose the combined state I created. But it doesn't work. The part isn't displayed transparent in the drawing-view.   what am I doing wrong ?   Thanks, Maik

I am currently working on producing an assembly drawing for a large top level product with many subassemblies   The way I typically handle that is with Combined states (simp rep, explode) controlling the various operations to assemble the product   BUT since we got upgraded to Creo 6, I cannot link all my simp reps easily to the BOM,I found this out after laying out all the 30+ sheets, I thought I could get around this by modifying my Combined state to all use the same simp rep and instead change the assembly layers to hide and show components   This seemed to work great, but after the drawing was finished and the PDF was exported all the views in the drawing matched the combined state of the final page, even though if you navigate to each page they generally show what view you are expecting   Any ideas what is going on? I have the views set to independent, but I think there is a shared layer among them   I do not have much experience with layers in drawing, ca

I have been playing around with Intelligent Fastener and was wondering if there is any way of adding the fasteners but with real features rather than cosmetic features for threads and such.

I have a question. I am having trouble finding out if there is a way to scale a simple a model in Creo 4. My issue is that I would like to use my original model as the "default" of 1 and be able to scale it from there, but being able to scale it back to "1" whenever I need to. The only ways I know of are:   1.) Use "Scale model", then use a calculator to find out how to get back to your original scale of "1" 2.) Set all dims in a relation of original value multiplied by a "Scale" parameter (which would take me a long time to set up since I have 70-100 dims in my model 3.) Use "Scale model", then Save As as a separate model   We are taking a model and running several simulations on it, finding an optimum result. Our analyst would like to just take the model and use a scale factor, so he will be running several iterations, using many scale factors. Any help would be great!

We are welding heavy metal frames en the weldings weight easily exceeds 60 kg per frame. We like to sum this weight with our net component weight and display one weight at the drawing. There is a repeat table parameter (weldasm.totalmass) that holds the weldings weight but I do not like to show it in the bom list and rather like to make the sum of the net weight and the weldings weight. Does anyone have experience configuring this ?
