Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello,   Right now I am working on an assembly with multiple parts with similar geometry. I wanted to know if there is a way for me to select all geometry with the same dimensions/features? Attached below is a reference, where I want to select all roller geometries without having to individually select them.   Thank you.   

Hi, I would like to know if I can create IFC files in Creo version 10.0.3.0 with 2 license which has subscription and 9 license which do not. I want to create BIM files using IFC but before I buy it I want to make sure that I can use it in my current Creo version.    Kind regards 

The tie wrap I designed does not fit exactly as I want to see. What options do I have to flow snug the cable? 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 2.0 and DatecodeM040abbiamo trasferito la versione da un vecchio pc a questo, ma la parte di manufacturing non funziona e non apre neanche i file di fabbricazioneHere are the errors that I facedabbiamo trasferito la versione da un vecchio pc a questo, ma la parte di manufacturing non funziona e non apre neanche i file di fabbricazione

In Creo 10.0.5.0, the requirement is to code which  iterates through models, and finds a specific component based on its file name. It then updates or creates a specified parameter within that component with a given value of any data type - using VB Apis, although I am using :_parOwner.GetParam(paramName).SetScaledValue(valuePar, Nothing)I am still unsuccessful.

Hello Everyone, I am developing a J-Link tool the requirement is to execute the tool on every save of the model. I have implemented this on session objection performing session.AddActionListener but this is resulting into clearing undo/redo stack into session. Looking for better option to keep the track on undo\redo stack and tool should run on every model save. Thanks in advanceSwapnil

Version: Creo 10 Use Case: Currently the Xpr file is generated with the name instancename.xpr. I want it in the following format : Fmailyname-instancename.xpr.Description: What happens if I rename an instance accelerator file (.xpr) for a part family table instance? Will Creo recognize the renamed file or will it ignore it. I am just trying to figure out whether I can rename the .xpr file.Currently it is generated with <instancename>.xpr. I want it in the following format :<Familyname>-<instancename>.xpr.

I am creating drawing templates in Creo 8.0.  For .prt files, I'm using an A4 border and want a scale of 1.000.  For .asm files, I'm using an A2 border and want the scale to be .200. The templates work properly during an open session of Creo.  However, when I close Creo and relaunch, the scale showing up for either template changes to something that appears to be a best-fit scale.  For reference, when I use the drawing template that had its scale set at .200, it creates a drawing with scale of .143. Both templates will be stored in Windchill and used globally.  I prefer to achieve the desired scales without using mapkeys. How do I set the scale to a default value in a drawing template so it stays after closing and relaunching Creo?

I've read several posts on saving as an OBJ file but they don't quite address my issue(s).  I'm on Creo 9.1. Saving as an OBJ only seems to work on an assembly and not a single component level.  I will try to open a single part of an assembly and save out as an OBJ but then nothing happens and I don't even get settings options.2. When work in the assembly and try to save out, I do get the settings and menu for adding parts but while I can select individual parts to add to the menu, nothing happens and they do not add.  The only way to save an OBJ as I can find is to select "ALL" and then select the coordinate system which takes everything instead of letting me choose.Does anyone else have this issue?  Thank you!

Hi,  See the picture here. We often have a feature parameter in an assembly. That can avoid assigning different parameter for the same components in different assemblies. Very often we need to change the value of this parameter. I am trying to write a vb.net code to automate the process but cannot find the proper interface, method or function to perform this task. Can anyone share a hint? Thanks 

I'm trying to add a surface finish callout for a part that gets ground. No matter what I try I can't select the surface I need. The model is from an assembly file that gets a revolve operation from a part file to show the finish grinding process. It seems like it doesn't like that but I'm not sure. Any help trying to place the symbols?

I've just dished aout another couple of grand to PTC for my Creo subscription and installed Creo 6, but am not quite sure what I am paying for. Yes, the live FEA looks great, the addative manufacturing tools might be useful, but I can't afford another kidney to pay for those modules.   What is new with the standard package, apart from a bit of menu polishing and a new right-click toolbar? The extra 5% on the subscription cost didn't go unnoticed either. I don't even get the rendering module without relinquishing the slightly less rip-off deal that I signed up for with my subscription license.   What about sorting out all the half-baked functionality? Why is the menu manager still there?   Are PTC trying to make me move to a competitor?   Sam

Description :How to load a protk.dat in Creo parametric, if the protk.dat file is at a user defined location without editing the config.pro fileUse Case -I have protk.dat file located at C:\temp & would like to load this application in Creo whenever it is launched.Also, without copying the .dat file to the <Creo load point>/Common Files/text.Tried setting up Environment variable "HOME" pointing to C:\temp, but it is not working. Thanks.

I swear this was working before, but there is no way to turn off all the coordinate systems of each part? going into each file is not really an option, there are 100+ models in my assembly and sub-assemblies.  

Hello Everybody, Im currently trying to automate the export of dxf files for laser cutting. We just use a seperate sheet in the parts drawing file with a single view of the unfolded sheet part. We always name this sheet "Laser".Now in VB, I want to search the sheets in the drawing for the one named "Laser" to identify the right sheet to export as dxf, but I cant find any class or variable in the API to get the sheets names. Does someone have an idea for this problem or knows a different way, to savely identify the sheet in VB? 

Hello,I want to delete only the suppressed parts from creo assembly using protoolkit.I am able to delete using the feature_ids with the function ProFeatureDelete(), But, it is deleting all the parts of the feature_ids I provide, irrespective of the status (active and suppressed) I want it to filter out between active and suppressed parts ,and then only delete the suppressed ones. Thanks and Regards,Disha

How can we convert CGM file to Step file

We are trying to use AI assistance for CAD(Creo/Solid edge/Teamcenter). Please let me know, If anyone has done recently.  or can help us or provide examples VennyTexas

Hello,I know the config option sketcher_refit_after_dim_modify to modify dimension without refitting the screen. But I need different option. I would like to start sketching without refitting. When I hit sketch button, whole part/assembly is fit to the screen, but I would like to not do so and stay exactly the same position where I started. Is this possible?  Is there an option or config to disable refit at the start of sketching?Thank you so much and have a nice day.

Hi, I would like to create an assembly containing a number of parts and make it so that at each regeneration I can enter a value to a parameter that changes the material of all parts for me.Example:I create parameter MAT that can have value 0 or 1 depending on whether I want aluminum or copper.Assembly A containing parts B-C-D having Aluminum as material so parameter MAT equals 0.I regenerate and set the parameter value to 1 getting parts B-C-D with material Copper .How can I do something like this?Are there other ways to do this kind of operation?I use Creo 11 with the AAX extension.

When I have a sheetmetal part, can Jlink then check if it is a flat part without bends or it is one with bends?

Hi,I would like to simulate the vibration pipe stress with frequency response (FRA).The source of vibration came from motor in compressor that we know frequency input that simulate from 20 Hz to 100 Hz   Load Set- Internal pipe pressure 3 bar- gravity load- torque from compressor The steps 1. Static analysis with pressure and gravity2. Prestress Modal analysis using the above static analysis for prestress.3. Run Frequency response dynamics analysis with torque varies on frequency. Are these steps correct? However, on FRA I don't know the amplitude. How can I find this amplitude?Also, There are 2 loading load functions and base excitation. My understanding this simulate should do the base excitation due to there are vibration from the base that pipe connected. Is this correct?  Also, the what is the value in base excitation and how can I find the amplitude. And in the calculate that relative to Ground and Supports. What are different of this 2?&nb

protoolkit: When ProPDFExport exports U3D PDF and opens it, it shows a 3D data parsing error

I don't want to see the warning "Cannot set system parameter for CopyGeom function". This is annoying and has no added value.How can I set this warning to no longer appear? Workaround: See CS418177, needs to be done every time when changes are made, What we use it for: We use skeletons with Publish Geometries, they are published to several sub skeletons and parts Which causes each time a lot of warnings when changes are made to the skeletonsImpact on us:We have to deliver our models clean and clear without warnings Each time we have to edit the External Copy Geometry when the warning appears So it is time consuming when you have a lot of models where this occur

I am working on a project and would like to know if it is possible to access the images used when placing UDFs with the out-of-the-box UDF functionality. I want to place the UDF programmatically using named planes, axes, etc. However, if a plane, axis, or other feature is not found, I would like to show an image to help the user select the correct feature. Currently, I can place a UDF fully if all the named planes and features exist. I am looking for ways to handle situations where features are not found.
