Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello CREO Users,I am working on a milling operation for an internal profile (similar to a valve seat geometry) in Creo Manufacturing. My objective is to machine the internal contour using tool radius compensation (CUTCOM) and to ensure smooth ramp transitions between Z-level passes or using helical folling the profile to avoid marks on the final surface.I have tried the following approaches:The Cut Line strategy allows helical movements and smooth transitions between passes, but it does not support tool radius compensation (CUTCOM). This is a requirement for my process.The Profile Milling strategy does support CUTCOM, but it does not offer ramp or spiral entry between Z-level cuts. As a result, the tool plunges vertically at each level, which causes unwanted marks and steps in the internal diameter of the part.I've tried to explore all the SCAN_TYPE parameters. LEAD_IN and LEAD_OUT approach but nothing works well.I need a solution that allows:Internal profile millingTool radius compen

Good morningI'm reaching out because my client recently bought a new computer and needs to transfer his current lifetime license to the new laptop.however the license management page no longer available since the company who used to administrate license in South Korea is no longer in business.Is there a way that I can access the license management page??

I created an assembly representing a commercial ball joint, called SKF_GE-4-C. This assembly is composed by a housing mounted by default and a sphere mounted with a "ball" connection type. If I drag components, everything is working fine at this level.Then I used this file as a component for another assembly called SUB, mounted as rigid. If I drag components, everything is working as expected at this level as well.However, when I insert SUB in another assembly called MAIN and try to constrain the hole of the ball with a fixed shaft, everything locks in place. I am not able to move the beam with drag components as I intend to do.Is it possible to get it to move preserving the same (or a similar) structure of assembly? What do you suggest? Using Creo 9.0.9.0. Files in attachment for reference.

Hi Everyone, I have added one column in the model tree that I need to get into the Parameter. Is it possible?   Regards, Aj

Hello, I am adjusting the size of the dimension arrows in the detail options to make them smaller since we have many drawings where they are packed full of dimensions. I found the options to adjust the arrowhead height and length, but I can't find one to shorten the length of the tail. (see attached picture). Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

I have a case involving a beam structure suspended on ropes.After analysis, I expect to see how the structure is balanced (center of gravity neutral) and deformed.But I don't know how to define the rope correctly.Could someone please help me? Thank you in advance!

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 5.0 (connected) Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.6.0API ProDimensionCreate is not supported(unable to create dimension) for attachment of type PRO_SILH_EDGE in toolkit API, Also How to select PRO_SILH_EDGE in creo Ui using ProSelect API?? As there is no string available to select PRO_SILH_EDGE.

Hi, Is it possible to set the model accuracy of all components in an assembly to "Absolute" at once?I tried creating a mapkey, but it requires opening each part one by one, which is a tedious task. Any tips would be appreciated.

Is it worth to switch to Onshape from Creo.Part, Assembly, Drawing and in terms of all solutions.Please share the beneficial, if possible Thanks!  

We have created combined views in our Creo start parts which are used for MBD purpose. Now we have a requirement to update the previous Creo Models with the Combined views created recently. That is why I would like to know if these combined views can be imported from the models which have the combined views.The other option that we could think of to achieve this is to create a Mapkey. Our current Creo Parametric version is 10.0.6.0. Any suggestions would definitely help.

After test installing the latest Creo 9 Platform Services Update Patch and the new PTC Universal Browser Utility as documented here (Creo and WWGM CEF Patch Table | PTC), I notice a new PTC executable running with Creo Parametric when signed in to Windchill, located in the Creo Platform Services load path.  I cannot find any mention of "ptc_uiservice.exe" in the PTC Knowledge Base or the PTC Community.   I have opened a PTC Support Case to add it to CS245546 and CS110511 with further details. Does anyone have any information on this new executable? 

I've been trying to use the creoson libraries to pass parameters to a model and generate a drawing from javascript ... but the dimensions in model could not be displayed in the generated drawing.. when i try to do the following,dimObj = new creo.DimensionObj(); dimObj.name = "d0"; dimObj.showFlag = true; respdata = await dimObj.list({file:"mydrawing.drw", name:"*"});it returns a blank array when i trydimObj.show({file:"mydrawing.drw", name:"d0", show: true});to show an existing dimension from the model from which i generated the drawing, it reports, the dimension does not exist.. and ofcourse the dimensions are visible in creo when i manually use the "show annotations" toolbar button.. sadly, theres no show annotations interface function in creoson dimension module... any suggestions / help is appreciated

Hi All, I'd like to create a pipe table template to show same info as the table below for any piping assembly.It has to be valid for both bent and straight pipes.How repeat region settings should be set to get this outcome please?Also, is it possible to replace the index_rpt parameter (Item column) with a component parameter 'linenumber' to show the number based on an existing BOM? Many thanks in advance for your help!

What are the practical differences between Always, Read Only, & Only Design Study?I have a weld fixture on a positioner that handles three parts and I'm trying to figure the cg from rotation for the fixture itself, then one for each of the parts. I'm also trying to do this without using a family table so I can have the dimensions all in one view. 

We have a new batch of CNC programmers for our sheet metal parts. They asked me if I could export the DXF of the flat pattern without the drawing border. I guess the experienced programmers have always removed the 4 lines of the border. Is it possible to export a DXF of a drawing without the border? (geometry only)Is it possible to export a DXF of just the drawing view? (possible workaround if the above isn't possible) WF5 M080 Thanks,Jeff <><

Hello CREO community!We often face the challenge of modeling complex gear pairs and splined shafts in CREO Parametric. We always strive to follow international standards to ensure the design is as accurate as possible for manufacturing. However, detailing the tooth profiles according to the standards in every project is very time-consuming.My question is: Is there any plugin or specialized software that integrates with CREO and generates these gear profiles in a more automated way?Here is an example of a plugin that integrates with SolidWorks, NX, Solid Edge, and Inventor. https://www.eassistant.eu/enBest regards,Uilian de Souza 

Is there a Creo Parametric setting that will make the Measure Distance tool launch with Setup and Results both expanded? Every time it launches it has them both collapsed. I want the tool to launch by default with them both expanded.  Yes, this is only a couple of mouse clicks, but this has to be repeated many times per day, and the expand/collapse buttons are really small.  So, this is a non-trivial headache.

 How to insert Item to a Tree, and form a tree structure by setting the parent/children relationship of treeItems?What does ItemPositionData mean?Can some one show me some code.

I have a table that we use to capture Rev History.  Whenever we add a row to this table, the text size and text alignment does not carry the alignment from the previous row.  Is there a way to set it the text size and alignment (or even style) for each column so that newly added rows don't need to be specifically defined? The first row under the headers shows how I want ever added row to behave.  The second row shows what I am currently getting in regards to Vertical Alignment, Horizontal Alignment, and Text Size. Currently using Creo 10.0 

How to compose the tree data structure in Creo UI component Tree. I am using OTK Java.With these classes it provide, I don't know how to add childNode or set parentNode. I can only display one node in the tree which might be the root node.

I have done a Google search as well as reviewing PTC's documentation online but haven't discovered exactly how to do that which likely isn't that difficult.I want to have my "Start In" location to be easily accessible and my config.pro burrowed in deeper but in a location that would not change after new Creo installs. Below shows where I would like the respective directory locations to be:Start In: C:/CurrentWorkConfig.pro: C:/CurrentWork/Creo/Settings There is one PTC help file that seems to suggest how this might be done, but I don't know where the suggested line would get applied.Alternate Path—You can set the environment variable PTC_CREO_ALT_SETTINGS_PATH to point to an alternative path where you store your configuration files. This path could be set to any mapped network drive or a shared OneDrive folder.The following files are read automatically from the directory that PTC_CREO_ALT_SETTINGS_PATH points to:◦config.pro◦config.sup◦creo_parametric_admin

I am looking for a way to search in a drawing for a table with the first cell has the content "Rev." and if this table is found, a new table should be added.Below script finds the table, but it seems my command table.InsertRow() seems to be failing.Can somebody help me?(The table has 4 columns, if this has any influence.) function addRowToRevTables(drawing) {    try {        // Get all tables in the drawing        var tables = drawing.ListTables();         for (var i = 0; i < tables.Count; i++) {            var table = tables.Item(i);             try {                // Get text from cell(1,1)                var cell = pfcCreate("pfcTableCell").Create(1, 1);                var mode = pfcCreate("pfcParamMode").DWGTABLE_NORM

I was trying my first Simulation in Creo Ansys Simulation, facing an issue during creation of mesh. I checked with multiple YouTube video but still I could get the solution."Material Some bodies or simulation objects in your modeldo not have a valid material type/elasticity model assigned."Please help me to resolve.  I am using Creo 10.0.7.0

Guten Tag,  Ich versuche gerade mithilfe des Generativen Designs ein Bauteil zu optimieren.Leider erzeugt Creo keine neue Geometrie. Es wird nur ein Bauteil erzeugt, das ausschließlich die beibehaltene Geometrie beinhaltet, zwischen diesen beiden Körpern wird keine Verbindung erstellt. Die Optimierung zeigt auch nur eine Zeit von 00:01. 

Hi, I am working on IFX custom library creation for my company.I have more than 1300 screws with 4-5 categories .I can not use dat files with category name and multiple parts from same category in the file. As i just dont have differentiation on Top category, i have different variations in sizes, lengths, then material, finish, drive types. I am now creating individual .dat file with info value placed in them showing part number, its size, length, material, finish, drive types.So, my top level category shows around 200 screws in one category dropdown,then each row shows, its name and other attributes. Is their any way we can add multiple options of dropdowns to select from, like length, or thread what we have. SO extra dropdowns for material, drive type.
