Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I'm trying to create a button that exists in Creo Elements, but for some reason doesn't exist in Parametric.It hides whatever you click. This is helpful because this way you can quickly "drill a hole" in your assembly by removing parts that are in the way. Creo Parametric wants you to click each part and then go to the menu and press hide. Too much of a hassle when trying to hide 30 parts. So I was trying to create this mapkey: mapkey hide @MAPKEY_NAMEhide;@MAPKEY_LABELhide;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command ProCmdViewHide@PopupMenuTree;\mapkey(continued) @MANUAL_PAUSE TEST;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command ProCmdViewHide@PopupMenuTree;\mapkey(continued) @PAUSE_FOR_SCREEN_PICK;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command ProCmdViewHide@PopupMenuTree;\mapkey(continued) @PAUSE_FOR_SCREEN_PICK;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command ProCmdViewHide@PopupMenuTree; Basically it should hide, wait for me to select another part, hide, wait, hide, wait hide.If that works I'd repeat it like 100 times. Problem is,

I'm setting up a startup that is for editing the user .ui file from the working directory of Creo. After the user exits Creo, I want to copy that .ui file to a different location. I'm trying to use the pro_wait option to do this. My command to start Creo looks like this:rem ** Start Creostart "PF" "%CreoPath%\Parametric\bin\parametric.exe" pro_wait "P:\Shared drives\CreoWorkspace\scripts\startup\%CREOSHORTVER%\move_users_ui.bat" It starts up Creo with only one .ui file read, so I can ensure they are only editing their personal .ui. However after the user exits Creo it's not running the batch file to move the .ui file. Is there something wrong with my syntax above???? I've verified in a command prompt that the batch file works with the variables: What I typed is underlined.C:\Users\Dell>cd C:\Users\Dell\pro\Creo_10_HomeC:\Users\Dell\pro\Creo_10_Home>call "P:\Shared drives\CreoWorkspace\scripts\startup\c10\CreoVersionBuild.bat"C:\Users\Dell\pro\Creo_10_Home>"

Hi there,it seems, that for all non-english installations and customers of Creo Parametric, the implemented and by default activated spell-checking is unusable.Even worse, when the complete text is red-curled-underlined, the text is barly readable and makes it easy to miss a real typo. I found this page, which addresses the issue: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS39069But unfortunately (and usual), PTC does not provide a helpful resolution ( "no plan to fix" & "works in IE").Does someone know, how to disable the embedded browsers spell checking or how to change the language for the spell checker ? 

In Creo Parametric drawing, is there a way of showing imperial dimensions as fractions but have the tolerance values as decimal? IE. 3 1/4 +-.010 We currently run V11

Hi Folks,Using CREO 7.0.8.0I have never been able to understand what the purpose of the radio button designated 'Copy Drawings' is for. I always have it selected when copying an assembly in the graphics window, but drawings are never copied, neither for the renamed assembly nor any of the renamed sub components. What is the purpose of this selection? Thank you.

Hello,   I have installed Creo Parametric 11.0 on my laptop (RTX4060 and  intel i5). now when I open the program I just see a black screen. I have already done an update of my graphic card driver, but that did not help. If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, I would be glad if you could let me know. 

I have few images in sheet 1, I want to move them to other sheets. I don't see how this can be done, please help me.

Hi all, I'm using the C++ Object toolkit and the Creo UI editor. I'm developing a plugin for Creo Parametric v10.0.5.0 For some reason, I am not able to display an image in the Drawing Area component.  I placed my image in the text directory for the plug-in:Text -> usascii -> resource -> logo.png Here is my code:    #include "pch.h" #include "DrawingAreaTestDialog.h" #include <uifcComponent.h> #include <uifcDrawingArea.h> Drawing_area_test_dialog::Drawing_area_test_dialog() = default; void Drawing_area_test_dialog::open_dialog() { if (uifcCreateDialog("DrawingAreaDialog", "DrawingAreaDialog") == 0) { const uifcDialog_ptr dialog = uifcDialogFind("DrawingAreaDialog", "DrawingAreaDialog"); Dialog_listener dialog_listener; dialog->AddActionListener(&dialog_listener); const uifcDrawingArea_ptr drawing_area = uifcDrawingAreaFind("DrawingAreaDialog", "DrawingAreaTest"); const xstringsequence_ptr image_seq = x

I have a problem with a part that looks like that while unbend: And that as bend: The problem starts with those small internal surfaces in the cutouts. They must remain flat. I have tried to use JOIN but I have an issue with it. There is an error. I'll explain in another reply or edit this on later. For the moment the question is, can I "split" bending line to not bend those small features? 

hello,I have a problem: I use a material with user-defined parameters on a model; when I create the drawing, I want to insert a symbol that automatically includes the instructions for producing the component, and I would like the material parameters to be automatically inserted. How can I do this?thanks testing data Uploaded

Did PTC ever fix the volume not remembering it's name issue they created in Creo4 and (as far as I know) carried it into every version past? Last time I checked it was still there (must be years now) even though it was a known issue that broke the mold design package. 

Basically I am making grooves for a tiny coil of diameter like 0,5mm on a small cylinder body. I have made my 'groove', and revolved it around the axis of the cylinder and then patterned it using fixed spacing (pitch).But I have to manually adjust the length of the cylinder body sketch to make sure it doesn't get interrupted.Let me break it down to two objectives.I want the coil groove to be patterned automatically till a fixed reference edge/plane. The pattern cannot be interrupted midway unless it falls with 0.0Xmm of the seed pattern or 'whole'. (In other words, the last pattern cannot be broken or broken by a specified dimension 0,0Xmm. If it is broken then the wire diameter will not fit and that space is wasted.If this cannot be fulfilled, then the length of the cylinder is automatically reduced or increased to make that happen for the last pattern to be intersected by the given length 0.0xmm or be 'whole'/'undisturbed'.I hope it is clear now. What is the best way to go about this

Dear teacher, hello:How to use Jlink to develop and obtain entity features in pattern? Features such as ID number 87,120,121 in the red box of the attached image. I tried using Features GetPattern cannot be obtained. Can a teacher help me answer this? 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.6.0Creo Piping inserts fitting models that do not match the configuration files. Watch the video at the linkhttps://youtu.be/wipiKDBfFhg

Hi All, I'm currently using Creo 10 and am interested in improving how I detail standard holes, In the past I have put a lot of work into the .hol files and had some success with making this work, but I have a problem where the parameters used by the hol files do not pull through the tolerance for that size,  I think I have to move to building ISO style hole callouts using &d dimension callouts in a note or lead dimension. Does anyone have experience or access to a toolkit module that can help tie up the &d values for a hole, the info > feature dimensions seems to do this, but it doesn't tie up to any description or repeatable convention I can see, and there's no description link like what the Feature Element Data or "local parameters" table provide for the hole sizes, but not dim ref's. Many thanks in advance Dave.

Is it possible to create BOM in model base definition on CREO 11

Hi, This might be a basic question. I am trying to create a duplicate of an assembly with a different name in a different folder to the original. For example: I need the assembly name to be different but i want to use the same names for the parts but have changes in the number of parts between the two assemblies .  Assembly 1 - part 1 - part 2 - part 3 Assembly 2 - part 1 - part 2  When I try to do this with the save a copy function, any changes in the new assembly reflects in the original assembly. I know I can do this if I change the names of each part within the assembly but I'm hoping I can use the same part names.  Hope that makes sense, thanks in advance !  

Hello   I have created a tapped hole in Creo part file. Once I go to edit definition -> Shape, I am able to find option for through thread. Option is disabled for me. Any idea how to enable the same?   Thanks and Regards Ketan

Hello everyone, I am beginner on creo, my company is switching from solidworks. I would like to know the easiest way to change the thread callout. M4x.7 ISO - H TAP DEPTH 7.923.3 DRILL (3.300) DEPTH 9.900 - HOLE I would like to delete the (3.300) bracket and reduce the 7.92 to 7.9. ATM I'm updating it manually to every single thread feature and it is consuming a lot of time.

I have a question regarding the compatibility of our Expert Moldbase Extension (EMX) license with Creo 11.0. Currently, our EMX license details are as follows:Feature Name: 192Feature Version: 40.0Expiration Date: 01-Apr-2026From my understanding, Creo 11.0 requires EMX 17.0, but our license seems to be associated with an older version (possibly EMX 15.0, which matches Creo 9.0).I would like to confirm:Does Feature Version 40.0 correspond to EMX 15.0, making it only compatible with Creo 9.0?Is there any way to use this EMX license with Creo 11.0, or is an upgrade required?If an upgrade is needed, what is the recommended process for acquiring an EMX 17.0 license?For a newly purchased EMX license, does it have to be downgraded by two levels to match our current license?I appreciate your guidance on this matter. Looking forward to your response. Best regards,Lan

Hello, I'm looking to see if Creo (3.0) can support GD&T with a Position tolerance on a hole, representing directions of X and one for Y. With the image in this post, I'm looking to create a Size on the Hole, with two position tolerances: X and Y (or a specific direction; no diametrical zone).   This will represent a rectangular zone, rather than a diametrical zone.

We use Creo 9.0.4.0. I have created a piano hinge from an imported STEP file. This involved cutting the fixed hinge and reassembling it so I can change the open angle of the two leaves of the hinge. The screenshot below shows the assembly list of the part.  After closing out Creo for the day 0n 2/22 and attempting to work on the file today, Creo crashes and I get this error message:I found that I can open asm.1 and asm.2 outside of the working directory, but the .asm more recent of .1 and .2 cause Creo to crash. Has anyone experienced this?I developed a work-around by copying asm.2, renaming it. I can get the assembly to open. Why would the latest files crash?Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you.
