Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hi all, Hoping someone can assist with a solution to this problem. I have just redone my department's drawing template and formats in Creo Parametric 10.0.3.0. However, the original templates we used had our logo in the title block of the drawing format, seemingly embedded as a OLE using MS Paint (?). However, during the process of our computers being upgraded to Windows 11, the logo no longer appeared in the title blocks for drawings (in the printed and pdf exports as well). So, during the template/format updates, I added the logos back into the format as a .bmp OLE via the "MS Word" option. This seemed to work, and all users were able to see the logo - in Creo, as well as printed and pdf exported - along with the logo propagating to new sheets on creation. However, the issue was that regardless of the pdf export settings, the logo would always be a very low resolution & have extremely noticeable pixelation around the edges (not shown in Creo representation).&n

I am using Creo Simulate Release N/A and DatecodeN/AI am running a simulation on a two piece aerofoil. The applied pressures are entered via .fnf files generated using Creo Flow Analysis. The aim is to run a baseline configuration and obtain the Fx and Fz loads to give lift and drag. The next step is to vary the angle of the aerofoil flap and compare the values for Fx and Fz to baseline.Unfortunately the assembly will run in baseline configuration and with the flap angle increased by 1 degree, but fails if the flap angle is reduced by 1 degree. This happens at other angles too but I cannot see why.Here are the errors that I facedSingular mapping, solid element: 1345420The design study terminated abnormally.The element with DBID 1345420 has invalid geometry.

Hi all, So we are in the middle of changing our creo 4 to creo 11.0.2.0. I used Creo 4 for years on this machine, never had any issues with licensing (as the way it should be since it is a locked license for a certain MAC address). The machine in question is a workstation laptop, so it has multiple MAC addresses (one for LAN, one for wi-fi 2.4Ghz, one for wi-fi 5Ghz. Creo4 used the lan's MAC address). Now, as Creo 11 comes in the picture I face multiple issues:- at the installation, it sees a different MAC address , so I moved the license to that address, so it allows me to complete the installation- if I change from 2.4Ghz network to 5Ghz one, creo11 won't start ("Invalid host name")- if I change from wifi network to lan, creo11 won't start ("Invalid host name")- after installation, it only works with active internet connectivity- even if creo11 starts, "license is lost" message appears every 3 minutes or so, if I click on retry, I can continue to work, "Regained floating li

[Creo 8] So i have a flexed board and everything works great.  If I deleted a component,  how do i get it back? the  baseline .idx is all i have.  the validate tool still shows it and wont bring it back in.  I've watched the east coast demo and it didn't cover that.  No real training on the PTC UNIVERSITY on this.  

I often have the situation where I need the same settings for a hole (diameter, counterbore) and use them for another hole in the same part. I have seen that in creo there is the option to copy and paste construction elements such as holes, profiles etc., so is there maybe an option to copy and paste the settings for a hole that I already used, or do you have to set up diameter, depth, counterbore etc. each time that you are creating a new hole?

Hello All, I have been using Creo 10 for about a year now with a SpaceMouse Enterprise.  Recently, when I have an assembly open (doesn't happen in individual part files), I get the regular red "diamond" that shows me the spin center when moving the model with the SM, but I also get an additional red "dot" now that I have not seen before.  Additionally, when I let go of the SM to stop moving the model, it then shifts in a random direction, sometimes up to 1/5 of the screen, away from where I moved it to....   I think that second red dot is linked to the weird shift as I had not had the shifting issue before this dot appeared.  How do I make it go away? Updates:  - The red dot only appears when rotating with SM.  When rotating with MMB, I get no red dot, but the model shift is still there.  It is actually more severe when using MMB, causing the model to shift out of frame.- Closing the model, and re-opening seems to have "f

I am trying to use the fill pattern feature in Creo Parametric 8.0. I am simply trying to create some small 3.0mm holes for vents for an electrical cover box. I have performed the following steps:I have created a rectangular sketch (used for the Fill Region/Grid) created a hole using the extrude feature that is positioned on the same surface within the bounding boxI have tried constraining to the center of rectangular sketch in "bullet point 1", but this doesn't make any difference in my end result I get a preview showing the features that will get patterned I click "OK" and the features are created very far out of the bounding box I created in "bullet point 1"I have tried creating the sketch within the pattern feature as well, with no luck  Every time I try this, using other shapes (hexagon's, squares, etc) as the feature shape, I never get the pattern actually made within the boundary box that Creo Parametric allows you to define. Any idea what is happen

I want to make an extrude to remove material for a relatively simple assembly. However, I found that the extrude doesn't work for smaller distance say 3 inches or to the reference plane I made a little bit from the end of the track. The extrude doesn't work when I say through all or to the plane further down around the bend of the track. 

I have a network drive where CREO is configured, when I try to open it, it gives me an error that it can't save or open, the folder is allowed to save, delete, and create.

I thought I could use any connected surface as a draft hinge in previous versions of CREO (2.0 - 4.0). I am currently using 11.0 and tried to use a curved surface as a draft hinge and it could not be selected. Am I mis-remembering or is this possible? Model above is representative only. Yellow is the surfaces to be drafted and green is the surface I wish to use  as a draft hinge.

I am using Creo Parametric Release N/A and DatecodeN/Aif I do "flip material removal side" after make section and arrowsthe lines are gone..

1) I have had a problem where the parts and sometimes assemblies get visually "corrupted". If it happens in parts it is still doable to work around it If I ignore it, as only the visual image gets distorted but I can still work with the part as normal (I can rotate, extrude, and everything normally). Things get tricky when a whole assembly starts to act this way, and I cant really ignore it. I suspect that is occurs the most when I open a part from the assembly and start working with it, but I am not very sure why.  I am not very knowledgeable of computers but these are my laptop specifications: processor: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 2.40GHz 2.42 GHz RAM: 16.0 GB Graphics: Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe GraphicsCreo: Creo Parametric ver9 2)Another college of mine has a problem where Creo straight up just crashes and closes when it becomes a little heavy. The most we do is drawings and assemblies and it crashes for him. We rarely do simulations.  We suspect t

I have a mass system that I am designing isolators for.  I'm attempting to create a new coordinate system that represents the principal axes so that I can use that to identify locations and angles for the isolators.  My problem is that when I compute the principal axes, then create a new coordinate system at the location and orientation of the reported principal axes, the location is correct but the rotation is slightly askew and I can't figure out why.  In the picture below, I would expect my 1, 2, 3 axes and X, Y, Z to be on top of each other.  I uploaded the CAD files as well.    

Hello Everyone, I am having a hard time trying to calculate the roll angle for a involute curve. I can draw it as shown in the image but unable to calculate it. I've been working with the involute roll angle formula but i have not been able to make match what you see below in the picture.Any help world be great,And thank you in advance.Sean  

How can AFX (framework) use predefined parameters for the automatic component drawing function?

Hello forum members,I am using Creo Parametric 10.0.7.0 together with Creoson and Python to create a (more or less) fluid animation. In the files you can look at my code.My problem here is that whenever the value for the parameter is set and the regeneration is done the view changes so that the assembly is centered in the middle. Does anyone know how to do something against that?I'm grateful for every bit of help, thank you. Kind regards

HiIs there any option that we can include the Part description in Global Interference window so that while downloading the file, it will be easy for me to filter?

Hi to all,I have recently update my PTC product from Wildfire 5 to CREO 2. Until I have used Wildfire 5 I could import XML cabling file in Pro/E (from Zuken E3) with no problem. In Creo 2.0 when I try to import same file I receive an error about spools. In practice, CREO does not accept the separation character (ex. 0.5) of the spools. Infact if I modify manualy the XML file and change 0.5 in 0_5 the problem is solved. So my questions are:- how do I replace automatically "_" instead of "."? - why in NWF file, the same spools with "0.5" is properly interpreted by CREO with no error?Thanx

Does PTC offer perpetual license for Creo Parametric 11.0 or 12.0?

So if I create a threaded hole feature I can see the hole callout on screen giving me the details of the  that hole feature.BUTIf I create a counter-bored hole feature I get no hole call out.Why is this? If this is a setting that needs to be adjusted why is it not uniform by default?

Greetings:I'm really struggling to understand Creo's drawing module and one of the issues is hole callout.   I was told that the drawing mod.  does have that ability and you have to use 'Show Model Annotation"  weird but okay.  So I found out a how have hole call out show but the callout is not what I was expecting.   Need some help on this been at it for 1/2 cay and still can figure it out.This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Is assembly with fix option a solid hold ? meaning it will not move . What does fix relate with in asm. Like what is it constrained to ? I hope its not free floating in space and moves uncontrol. ANDWhat is the difference between fix/default/csys ? THANKS IN ADV

 Hello, I want to customize the serial numbers shown in a repeat region table in Creo drawings. Instead of using the default linear numbering (1, 2, 3, ...), I’d like to apply a more structured format like; 1_11_2234_14_24_3567This is especially useful when I need to group sub-items under a main item, or indicate logical associations between parts in an assembly.I've tried using rpt.index and creating relations in the repeat region, but I’m not sure how to dynamically generate such custom values.  What’s the best way to set this up in Creo so that the table updates automatically based on the model?
