Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello everyone, when Ι try to install creo parametric 12.4.0.0 Ι get this message and the creo parametric cant fully installed. Ι have try to install the latest java and the java 21 and still have the same problem. And then the pop up window shows about that my hardware cant be qualified for the photo render studio but when Ι run the hardware check utility , it shows that my hardware is qualified as you can see for those in the attached files.Please give me an advice for how to solve that problem.Thank you

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.12.0The mapkey doesn't wait for the simulation to end in the Material Removal (Module Works).Once the simulation is started in the Module Works window, all buttons except the Stop button are disabled until the simulation ends.How can I add a script to the mapkey that queries the window and waits for the simulation to end?Thanks

Hi All, When applying tolerances to dimensions, if I select Symmetric the box is greyed out so I can't enter a value.  When I select Plus-Minus only one box appears for the minus value. This problem has just appeared and is present if I try to alter the tolerance on the model or the drawing.  I have Creo 5 and 11 installed on my PC and the problem is present in both versions even though they read different config files.  When My Colleague opens the files on his PC the problem isn't present.   Symmetric selected:Plus-Minus selected: Any help greatly appreciated! Kind regards, Clive 

Problem Description:I am having trouble displaying part-level dimensions in a drawing view when both the part and the assembly are in Simplified Representations.What works:Dimensions show correctly in the standalone Part model (both Master and Simplified Reps).Dimensions show correctly in the Assembly drawing if the view is set to the Master Representation.The Issue:When I switch the Assembly drawing view to a Simplified Representation, the part-level dimensions disappear.I want to display the part in its own "Simplified" state (to show specific geometry/features) within an assembly-level view, but Creo seems to lose the feature references required for the dimensions once the assembly "simplifies" that component.Goal:I need to show the simplified version of the part in an assembly drawing view without losing the ability to show model annotations/dimensions for that part.

I needed to do a good cleanout, so I cleaned up all my workspaces then deleted my .wf folder. Not to  unusual but may be the first time since moving to creo 10 (late last year)  that I have done this. I run config.pro option to load my ui customization from my run directory  -  load_ui_customization_run_dir yes I was surprised that after deleting my .wf, I lost my settings even tho I had checked prior to deleting that the one in my startup directory customization ui file was dated recently, which i thought confirmed my location.   What did I miss?

Selecting a feature from the model tree and hiding its visibility will make the feature not visible. Selecting a feature from the model in the workspace window and hiding its visibility places the feature on a hidden layer and it cannot be seen again (even if you make it visible on the model tree) unless you remove it from the hidden layer in the layer tree. I don't understand why I cannot unhide it from the model tree without first removing it from the hidden layer on the layer tree. I primarily use Creo for CAM programming and really have no use for layers, so I find this pretty annoying.  I don't think it was like this prior to going to 10.  Is there a fix for this behavior? Thank you,Matt

I am using Creo Parametric Release 12.4 and Datecode12.4.3.0 申请证书过程提示权限不够，升级账户要求输入安全ID，什么是安全ID，帮我申请证书，  

I am using Creo Pro/TOOLKIT (C++) to extract drawing dimension attachments.Observed behavior:When a dimension is attached to an edge or surface, all attachment APIs return valid results.When a dimension is attached to a cylindrical axis / hole centerline, none of the following APIs return that attachment:ProDimensionAttachmentsGetProDrawingDimAttachpointsGetProDrawingDimAttachpointsViewGetThis occurs for both linear and ordinate dimensions, even though the drawing visually shows the dimension referencing the cylinder axis.Questions:Is this behavior by design in Creo (i.e., axis stored as an implicit or drawing-only entity)?Is there any direct API to retrieve axis-based dimension attachments?If not, what are the recommended workarounds or best practices to catch attachments for dimensions with axis as attachments?Any guidance or confirmation would be appreciated.

I copied an existing drawing that already had an A and B datum that was defined in the drawing as "set datum tags". During the modeling, the attachment points (both shown dimensions in the drawing) were removed. I go back to the drawing, I tried creating datums A and B as "set datum tags" and it tells me they already exist. In the past, i have been successful finding stuff like this with the find tool. Not this time. I tried find in the drawing, every find option I could use. I tried in the model. No luck there. Just to be clear, these are drawing created set datum tags using the "datum feature symbol" from within the drawing. Little red underline on the B datum means it's a duplicate name. The question is, how do I find a missing "set datum tag" within the drawing. I use the term "set datum tag" specifically because that is what it is called and what the find tool found when I created another that it did find in the drawing.        

HI, I'm new to CreoJS and it is the first time i meet this situation. In Feburary 2026 PTC introduced new important features for me. How can I update CreoJS without reinstalling whole Creo.    

 ComponentConstraint constraint = componentConstraints.get(i); Selection compRef = constraint.GetAssemblyReference(); Model model = compRef.GetSelModel(); Hello，During the development, I encountered that when the Model is an array, the assembly item model obtained from the constraint is not the correct array model. I used the above code to obtain the model according to the principle that the array parts indicated by the red arrow were obtained, but the source file indicated by the green arrow was obtained. Is there a way to get the parts of the array?

I'm using Creo 11 w/ Complete Machining Extension. I'm trying to learn 5-axis milling capabilities of Creo and I want to have a full tool library curated by someone else. I have downloaded the "Tooling Library" from PTC page "Legacy Creo Libraries".https://www.ptc.com/en/support/enablement/AdditionalCreolibraries Can anyone teach me or send me documentation on how to make use of the tools inside of Creo. For every .prt file of a tool there seems to be a corresponding .mnu file and there are 3 or 4 .exe. I imagine there is a way to view the .mnu files in a master menu with graphics, but I don't know. Thanks,Kevin

Hi all,I am building an automated drawing export system using Creo Toolkit (Creo 12, Windows, DLL architecture). PDF and DXF batch export are working perfectly via ProPDFExport and Pro2dExport. PLT export has been the blocker for 2+ days.What I have tried:1. ProPrintExecute — All three option getters succeed (status=0):ProPrintPrinterOptionsGet("postscript") ✅ProPrintMdlOptionsGet ✅ProPrintPlacementOptionsGet ✅But ProPrintExecute always returns -22 (PRO_TK_BAD_CONTEXT). Window ID from ProMdlWindowGet is confirmed valid (1001). Drawing is retrieved, displayed, window activated and set current before the call.2. cpbatch.exe — Cannot find it anywhere in our Creo 12 corporate installation:Parametric\bin\ — only parametric.exe and cocreatesim.exeCommon Files\x86e_win64\obj\ — not presentIs cpbatch.exe still shipped with Creo 12 or has it been removed?3. xtop.exe — Present in our installation. Has anyone used it for headless batch PLT export? What arguments does it accept?Environment:Creo Pa

I'm using Creo 2.0 currently and would like to be able to assign material properties to bulk items in an assembly I have. I want this for reporting the PTC_MATERIAL_NAME parameter in my drawing BOM. In the assembly model in Creo 2.0, there's no way to right-click on a part and assign materials. For each part, I have to open them and manually set the material by going to File -> Prepare -> Model Properties, which is not an option for bulk materials because the only way to access them is through the Relations window. PTC_MATERIAL_NAME is a reserved parameter and cannot be manually added in relations. Do I need to change my BOM settings to a user defined parameter for each part in the model? Any other workaround?

Hello, I am using Creo Parametric 10.0.10.0.When we use a threaded hole feature fabrication needs some information.Thread size, thread depth etc.Using hole chart make this possible.But when we have a pattern of a threaded hole, we also want to see the number of holes.Because this is related to a feature ID i can't seem to figure out how to make this possible.In attached picture you can see what i tried.Does anyone have a solution for me? Thanks in advance. LD

Hi, We're using Creo 10.0.6.0 and currently evaluating the ECAD-MCAD Collaboration (ECX) which allows using IDX files. On the ECAD side, we use Cadence. We ran into a snag because we have rigid flex assemblies that use multiple thicknesses, but Creo doesn't support that yet. Many references here:  https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/ECAD-board-with-different-thickness/idi-p/814493 https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Support-IDX-4-5-File-format/idi-p/842345 https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS262034?source=search https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS302761?source=search We have workarounds to manage these files today using EMN/EMP transfers. I'm interested in learning if others have already found workarounds to manage multiple thicknesses with IDX files.    Thanks, Joe

I am using Creo 11. I have separate .hol file. I want to write code in that .hol file so that "1 X" should not be visible in the hole note. Plz help, how can I modify this line{0:&PATTERN_NO}× /{0:&FASTENER_ID} × {0:&THREAD_DEPTH[.1]}<ctrl-a>/<ctrl-b>{0:&DRILL_DEPTH[.1]}V so that Pattern_No will not visible if the value is 1.

It would be useful if we could repeat a Geo Tol in a drawing without always starting with the simple "tolerance of precision" I seem to remember in the past when it would start with the previous instance.These are in the drawing, not the model. I sincerely hope that's not the problem. In fact that couldn't be the problem because if they were "in the model" they would simply "show" I would rather add the tolerances in the drawings.

Hello folks,   a colleague asked me if I knew a way to copy the name of a selected model tree element to the clipboard.Since I could not find an out-of-the-box solution, I developed a small tool for this purpose myself:"Copy Model Tree Element Name To Clipboard"Maybe someone else would like to use the tool.

I'm trying to set up a design study where I rotate a crankshaft and the load vectors and magnitudes vary based on the rotation angle.  I was told I could create a user parameter, which is the angle, and then link the load values and/or directions to the angle parameter using relations. So when the angle value changes, the loads change accordingly.   Can someone show me how I would write a relation like that? or Does someone have another way to do this?   Currently the crankshaft is an assembly file where the load vector is defined with a coordinate system.  So when the assembly angle (crankshaft angle) is changed the csys changes to apply the bearing load at the correct vector.

Hey, I have a few mapkeys where I use the pause with the resume prompt/popup. (I've included a picture for clarity) There is no need to hit cancel but if you do click cancel instead of "Resume" it leaves you in an undesired state. The preferred fix would be to remove the "cancel" button entirely and only show "Resume". Is this possible and if so, how. I've tried modifying lines in the config file with no luck so far. Thanks!  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.6.0After installing PTC Creo (11.00.07), I attempted to open various files. However, only assembly (.asm) and part (.prt) files will open. When I view a part, the background is completely black.Here are the errors that I facedNo error messages. but Despite successfully creating and saving new sketches, the part view still shows a black background. Changing appearance settings did not resolve the issue. I still could not visit the part

Is it possible to add a Datum Reference Frame CSY to an annotation state?  If its not supported now, what work-arounds are people currently using? To my understanding, the DRF must be displayed in the model IAW Y14.41 (2018) Section 11.2.1.    DRF's were optional in Y14.5, but are required in Y41.41. I haven't been successful with "Reference" feature on the Model Tab, or the "Establish DRF" in GDT Advisor.  Example Image from Creo 12Excerpt from Y14.41 for example display of DRF's. 

Hi Folks,I can't find the butt weld option in the welding application ribbon. Any idea where this would be?Thank you.
