Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello I have a lot of measured points and like to create a best fit plane through these points.Does Creo provide such an option?Many thanks in advance for your help.Regards Pius

Hello Creo 12 users,I’ve recently been having a problem with creating curves.When I go to Options for the curves and adjust the points, the curve jumps back to a different shape after I click OK.  It looks as though the points aren’t being saved.I’ve attached a video.Does anyone recognise this problem and have a solution?Thanks and best regards,Ramon Bohne(Siemens Energy)

I am working with a model that has a curved body or feature, that looks likes it was created with a resolve. I checked the fastener hole edge curves on both sides of this feature, which is nonplanar. One side of the hole is made up of two split arc edges. The other side of the hole is made up of two spit spline edges. The spine edges is an issue in creating a fastener in Simulate. I tied to use the Round to edit the spines but if this is the correct tool I can’t figure out how to replace the spine edge with arc edges.  Does anyone know the approach to doing this? I only have the Creo Parametric not any advanced design add-on licenses.

Hi there. I built a pretty typical 4-axis desktop CNC machine with an ‘A’ axis which rotates in the positive X direction and controlled by Mach3 on a USB controller. Overall it works well for any 3 axis milling/roughing/surfacing operations. See below configuration.Unfortunately when I go to set up an indexed 4-axis program, the included post processors in Creo skip the NC path’s rotate command:AAXIS,  ATANGL,  -90.000000and do not include it in the exported .tap/ G-code. I assume this is normal as most of the included post processors are only for 3-axis machines.However, I have attempted to “roll my own” using the included option file developer, turn on a 4th axis option, and using the UNCX01.P11 post processor as a base model, but no luck so far.The material removal simulation in Creo shows the appropriate rotation happening. I can also manually type in the “A -90.0” command into the exported G-code in the proper spot, which works great on the machine and allows me to accomplish my g

Hi, In my section view I have created driven dimesnions. But When I switch the annotation tab at the bottom to standard view (Standard Alle) then in the drawing the dimensions dissapear.  In my drawing I have applied the section and I have also applied partly visible area  How can I dsiplay the dimensions ifor a section view in my drawing?I’m using Creo 11.0.1 

I use creo 10 but I also tested on Creo+ (13).I asked recently, “Why does axis pattern show 2 “direction” dimensions when I only have one direction?” I had noticed this but never really asked. I don’t remember it doing this in creo 6 or 4 and before, not sure which  

Hello all,Is there by any change a way to select all the bodies in one selection in an assembly after a query by Bodies, without selecting every single body?Open an assembly ; Queries by Type = BodiesAll the bodies are filtered (in green)Now, I want to select all bodies without selecting them induvidually. Is it possible?Thank you

I recently got Fanuc option G93 for Inverse Time Feed installed on a Toyoda FH500J.  I am working toward a goal of having an edit free post for that machine.  Right now, I get several lines where an F0. is placed before a B rotation.  I end up replacing any F0. with a more appropriate feed rate in the G-Code file.  It works, but its not a perfect solution.The part that will be the first part I cut with this is a 12” cylinder with a helical swept groove.  It is a constant pitch.  I don’t know why there should be many feed rate changes at all, but the way the post writes it is with a change on almost every line.  Then there are the F0. that definitely need to be edited prior to running.Anyone else out there using G93 on a 4axis horizontal?  Any thoughts on what I am seeing?I am using a cutline milling path and a 1/2” ball end mill.  The groove starts at the top and bottom where the cutter basically makes a u-turn as it works its way down (helically) to the center of the groove.  The spin

It would be very useful to include the ability to hide/ suppress assembly level features (i.e. cuts, holes, revolve.) for use in creating simple reps of the assembly if it has post operations after assembly that take place.The example I have for this is two copper half shell parts that will be brazed together in an assembly, after the brazing process there are machined ports and outer diameters that will need to be turned down to size. Currently I cannot hide/ suppress the hole and revolve cuts that I have at the brazed assembly level to have two views of the assembly; one representing the pre-machining braze operation and the other representing the post-brazing machine operations. I’m aware that a work around for this is to include these post brazing operation machined features at the part level and create a user defined rep to carry through to the assembly level. However this method could cause confusion in the future if someone needs to revise the model and doesn’t have the history/

Good morning everyone,I'd like to filter all the items identified with the value “Rigid Body #” in the Model Tree.thanks  

Respected sir, I am facing a graphics display issue in PTC Creo. When I open my assembly, the model appears distorted, with broken lines and improper graphics display, as shown in the attached screenshot. I have tried adjusting the available graphics settings, but the issue is still occurring. Could you please help me resolve this problem? I would appreciate your guidance regarding any required graphics configuration, driver update, or other settings. Please find the attached screenshot for your reference. Thank you for your support.Best regards,Swastik Brajavar 

I want to break the links in the model so I can delete parts in the copy of the model I saved. How do you do this?If I can’t break the links, when I reopen the copy where I have previously deleted parts regenerating errors occur with regenerating message stating x number of missing model

I have an assembly which I want to save a copy of. However, one subassembly throws an error which I would translate to english like "Model ~~.asm has been renamed by references." I have already tried saving the particular subassembly as a copy and replaced the subassembly by its copy. But this way, I was not able to make the error go away. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Please let me know if you need additional information to be able to comment on the question!

When a model is open, it's a great convenience to be able to open technical drawings with the same name as the model, filtered by their location within the same folder.

I was downloading the student version of creo for my class, but I dont see any License folder under the ProgramData/PTC file.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.7.0 Some times creo doesnt save changes made. Before I quit out I regenerate and save (Ctrl + R, Ctrl + S), and the save seems to go through. When I open the part or assembly at a later time, the changes made are not saved, and I have to redo geometric changes, constraints, assemblies and such. At times, the work done, and changes made are saved as expected, at times, almost at random, the work done, and changes made are lost. I guess this is user error, and not software related, but I havent had any luck in trying to troubleshoot online. I work locally, and not towards a PLM or PDM software. Here are the errors that I faced: No error messages, the only popup is the classic "If you quit without saving ... yada yada", which pop ups even though no changes have been made. This message pop up when exiting the client, not when exiting the model / assembly.

When the Drag Components command is used in a multi-level assembly with mechanism connections, opened through Windchill PLM, the user is prompted to select either Check Out or Continue for the affected CAD objects.Selecting Continue at the top-level assembly does not apply the same selection to the subassemblies and components involved in the mechanism. If Continue has not been selected for any affected object at a lower level, the Drag Components command either prevents the movement or does not perform it correctly. As a result, the user must manually search through the assembly tree to identify the level for which Continue has not been selected.To prevent this issue, we request an option such as “Continue for All Affected Components” within the Drag Components command. This option should apply Continue to all affected subassemblies and components in a single action.

 the image is related. whenever i try to open the file it shows this blank screen. I’m new to creo student edition and don’t know much. I was previously an onshape user. i had made backups and made sure to save it a couple of times before closing. The random save i did while sketching is visible for some reason but none of my extrusions are visible.i scanned all my pc’s recent files to see if i had accidently saved it somewhere else too but its to no luck. The sketch from the above mentioned case is not fully visible too. 

Hello I have a reference pattern created from geometry present in another part in assembly. Referenced pattern does not get updated automatically, when I update my parent/main feature. What could be the main reason refernce pattern does not get updated automatically when refernce with external geometry. I have also checked the update control is set to automatically . TIA

I have a user how is simply trying to save a shrinkwrap on a simple part, but when he goes to Save As, before he gets anywhere his Creo 10 is freezing and generates an error as follows:The defined Environment file for the model scene is missing and will be replaced with the Creo Default Environment file. You can update the scene by selecting the desired Environment file from the Scene Editor under the View Tab.I can’t seem to find any info on this. He’s not in render mode or anything like that. There is nothing special about what he is doing. Seems like it is now all files, so its “environment related, not a specific part/assy issue.  I tried with the part on my computer and it works as expected.

My Company recently ungraded to Cero 12 from 8. There are a few changes made to the whole cabling side of Cero. I have been able to work through most of it but now trying to add the terminal information has been tricky/I can’t get it to work.In the past we have added in the terminal table to get all that information and eventually use it when making the drawing in the to-from table. We also have another smaller table with some of the same info for each connector.To make the BOM accurate we make blank parts with the part numbers of terminals, locks, and seals and place them in the assembly so the table is accurate.So far I’ve tried making new terminals which just throws the “name already exists” error and when I try and import them from the old trm files the same thing happens. I would assume this is because there are part files that already exist and not from the trm files.  If anyone has a solution or work around that would be much appreciated.

Hello Creo API team,We are building a Creo Plugin . We already have tessellation data in memory:Vertex coordinates (x, y, z) Triangle connectivity (facet index list) Optional normalsCan we create faceted/mesh geometry in a Creo part from this data programmatically (no UI)?Specifically: Is there a public ProToolkit API to create mesh geometry directly from in-memory vertex + triangle buffers (similar to passing a vertex buffer and index buffer)?If not, what is the recommended approach Environment: Creo 11.x, ProToolkit C++, Windows x64.Thank you.

Hello,   I am looking for a fast way to exclude items inside a pattern or group.  This would be applicable for simplified reps or shrinkwraps.  When you create one of these two, Creo opens a separate window that allows you to pick items to exclude.  However, if there is a pattern or group you have to expand all the way down to the part level and shift+select all the parts to exclude them.  This is the case even in the model tree when the rep is active.  Is there an easier way to exclude all parts under an assembly or group?   Thanks all, MattThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.
