Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I Designed a conical spring in Creo Parametric and am attempting to do analysis on the spring. When I applied the constraints and forces on the spring and ran the analysis, the analysis failed and said problems were encountered while preprocessing the features for the highlighted surface. Only the middle section of the spring is highlighted as part of the error. Can anyone help me as to why this may have happened

Hi Community, We set-up a family table of our screws and wanted to add this now to IFX.For local tests, I saved the generic to ...\Common Files\ifx\parts\ifx_fastener_archive\nb__312350pxxxx.prt The .dat file looks like this: !--------------------------------------------------------! Sechskantschraube! Hexagon head screw!--------------------------------------------------------SCREWTYPE 20UNIT MMSURFACE 763AXIS 745CBSCR DIN974-2 R1INFO SCR-HEX-ISO4017-A2-70!Enter the name of the Family Table Part!---------------------------------------FAMPRT nb__312350pxxxxSYMBOL STRING DN LG B S K DG PINSTANCE STRING DN LG B S K DG P#FAMTAB M<DN> d58 d57 d57 d20 d19 d70 pitch When I now want to add a screw I have a weird behavior:1. When the generic is not opened in Creo, I don't see any thread size in the drop down, but lengths.2. When the generic is opened, I see the correct Thread sizes and lengths in the pop-up window. But independent what I select in this pop-up, it alway

In creo view 5 or 6 or 7 the stereoscopic will support active or passive or both to view the models. If Available, please share me any reference documents related to this.

I found a nearly 4 year old post saying this was not possible. I am asking again because I have read about updates to simplified reps in more recent revisions.   Does anyone know if Creo 4 and Creo 5 includes the ability to update the mass of a part relative to an active simplified rep?    Thanks in advance.

Hi, me an my team are using Creo Parametric 10.0   We are trying to export our drawing file to pdf for a technical document, but everytime we do, even with different export settings, once the pdf is created we can see that the notes are ok but the views of the part result front-view only and stretched. We originally set 4 views: Front, RSide, Top and 3/4 so we're confused.   We don't get what may cause this issue since the first export was just fine, but from the 2nd on the mess began, we also tried with different files and it happens still.   The same thing won't happen with .png or .tiff export but the image quality is poor so the use it's no option.   Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.  

Came across this unseen ICON . Any one can throw some light on this one? Thx in advance.SEE ATTACH

In Creo, I'm getting lot of Windchill Icons just above the  model tree. Please let me know if anyone see this issue. Usually we will get one Windchill icon for one part right. but I'm getting Creo window with lot of Windchill icons as below. Please some one help me on this.   Thank youKumar B

 Hi everyone, I just got access to Creo 11 and I'm struggling with one of the new features they added.For this model I want to use 4 axis HSM, however even if I select the B axis as rotatory (which means it rotates around the Y axis) the machining area I can select is always a cylinder around the Z axis and I can't figure out how to change it. My work center settings also specify it revolves around the Y axis but it just doesn't allow me to change the axis of the machining area. Any idea on how to solve this?

Hi, is the current lmadmin upgrade path, really uninstalling the old version and installing the new version from scratch?In the past the setup recognized the old installation and upgraded it. at least a few years ago.br Bernhard

Hello all,I noticed that after creating the drawing changing font of the annotation doesn't affect the embedded symbols like plus minus sign or diameter sign. For example dimension font is set as arial WGL first:But setting it to CG times, only the dimension numbers (23 and 0.1) is changing but not symbols:Is there a way to set font format for all symbols effecting the annotation on drawing?Thank you for your support.Have a nice day.

I am using Creo 9.I have received a large step file with over 1k components, I have imported it successfully and now I need to rename some of the files. I tried to use "Use template" option - no matter what I choose to do - the generation of file names would wipe out all of the values in the "New File Name" column (see screenshot attached). I tried  asterisk symbol in front, at the end, or both in front and after the characters i need to replace; i also tried using suffixes and not using suffixes for the new file name. I also tried File > Save, edit file list in excel, and then import it back, but it doesn't apply the renaming when importing.I see most of the problems with file names being too long, but I can't remove sections of file names using template. For example, i need to replace "STEEL" in the names of the files with "S" in 200 files, but no matter what I do I can't make it work. If i use "Template" then it wipes out all names, or if I Export the file nam

I am using Creo Simulate Release N/A and DatecodeN/ADie Modalanalyse ergab 58 Eigenmoden. Danach möchte ich eine dynamische Analyse im Zeitbereich machen (um die Erregerkräfte in die Struktur einspielen zu können). Wie gewohnt natürlich im Reiter "Vorherige Analyse" die besagte Modalanalyse gewählt. Weiters möchte ich die Dämpfungskoeffizienten für jeden Eigenmode individuell eingeben ... also dementsprechend eingestellt ... und ich hätte erwartet, dass ich nun 58 Eingabemöglichkeiten bekomme. Leider wurden mir nur 4 Eingabemöglichkeiten (für die ersten 4 Eigenmoden) angeboten.Woran könnte dies liegen?Habe derartige Berechnungen schon öfter gemacht und konnte bis jetzt auch die Dämpfungskoeffizienten immer individuell einstellen.Danke schön für Hilfe.SG Markus Plainer

I am making a spline in a part based on a large collection of points I am creating from a file.  When I assemble this part into an assembly I want to know the location of these points relative to the assembly coordinate system.  Is there a way for me to measure the x,y,z distance from the assembly coordinate system to those points all at once instead of having to do hundreds of individual measure commands?  Creo Parametric 8.0.5.0

Creo Parametric 10.0.5.0 I am trying to create a plug weld. I have had success with several on one side of the weldment, but when I try to create the plug welds on the opposite side the weld seems to project to the opposite side. I have tried using the opposite surface of the red surface, but it just projects to the opposite side of the weldment.  

to whom it may concern... Hi there, I recently installed Creo Parametric 10.0.8.0.As it turned out, the debug console, you can activate by adding "set CEF_DEBUG_PORT=9222" to your start command is broken in the latest release of Creo 10. Usually, You get debug information displayed, when You open "http://localhost:9222/" on the computer running Creo Parametric.In 10.0.8.0 that address just shows a blank page (NO "This site can’t be reached" error !).In 10.0.7.0 everything works as intended. I tested this on several machines. Also tried to install both versions parallel. But to get the console working again, I had to uninstall Creo completely and reinstall 10.0.7.0 again.

Customizing the pop up/hover display of creo parametric model names in the graphics window to include an additional parameter such as Title or PTC_COMMON_NAMEIs this just straight up an enhancement or is there a current customization method freely available?For example.    In my screenshot it shows:    SYNTAX -->ITEM:F#(FEAT TYPE):FILENAMEOn Screen --> Edge:F5(IMPORT FEATURE):601301I want to show the same plus an additional Parameter to the right of FILENAME such as PTC_COMMON_NAME as in my mockup (Green Box) below.

I am having an issue with printing Creo drawings. Every time I print a drawing, the print comes out with a very thick outline. I am attaching pictures to better explain my issue. The left picture shows a drawing view, and the right picture shows the print view. I recently switched from SolidWorks to Creo and never had this issue with SolidWorks, so I don't know how to fix these outlines. Any help would be greatly appreciated.drawing viewprint view 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.3.0Is it possible to factor in gravity in cabling design to get a more realistic representation of slack and mass effect? I haven't found any related article or post in the community.

As a disabled user with only one hand, I need a way to setup Creo Parametric to only use Mouse buttons for PAN. This is the only function that I cannot seem to find a work around from Shift + RMB to PAN in my model. Yes, I can use the Pan icon and have been doing that, but it is extra clicks and impacts productivity. Other CREO PTC applciations have the ability to modify and control the Pan/Zoom/Rotate features (Creo View, Creo Elements etc), Creo Parametric does not have this ability for those of us that need accomidations due to physical disability and limitations. When will this be fixed for the user community?
