Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.7.0When tangent edge line style is being changed to any other than default, using reset button or copying style from another tangent edge will not bring default style (thin continuous line), but it will set it to the line style of contours (wide continuous line) instead. The issue affects how drawing exported to PDF format looks like (line thicknesses).

Do you have any specific notes on the library components, saying that "This part is for graphical representation only. Detailed information should be available from the supplier"?

Hi all, Greetings!I need to automate export part/asm to STEP format with different options OR through different profile files in Creo. I checked Mapkey does not work. Anybody suggests how to do it? OR any API or batch files that can solve/work.

I can change the View in the Searchbox (File -> Open) of Parametric. So its possible to show also attributes instead of just the name. If i close Parametric and open the Searchbox again, Parametric will run with the default UI of the Searchbox and will show me just the Name again.   How can i save this Setting. I tried it by saving the Customization_ui but it didnt work.   Is it possible? If yes how can i save the setting?  

When deleting a patterned part you get (2) options "Delete Pattern" and "Delete". If you are getting rid of the part completely, I have typically just chose "Delete". When this is done, the family table has a orphaned dimension left in the table for the quantity of the pattern. Why would the pattern quantity not be deleted also?    

How do you resize the column widths in family table beside dragging the divider line in the header?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.2.0when ı choose profile(framework) which Bosch type like sigma, it seems only rectangular.

I ran into a large assembly that I cannot save after changing some parameters.The parameter does not seem to have anything to do with regenerating the assembly (it is date and designer name).From the warning messages that appear after I tried to save the model, I have found 2 support articles, but I could not read them. Could someone please tell me what is in these two articles? Thank you so much!https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS258240https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS112336  

Hello,is it possible to manage default font type/size/linestyle for cross sections?I want to follow technical drawing stadards in my country but Creo always use default font/color/linestyle for section name which is not correlating with cross section default arrow style (because it is just a note). I am missing something like these "drawing.dtl" options: crossec_font_color (valid for arrows and xsec note)crossec_font_height (valid for arrows and xsec note)

Has anyone come up with a way to export the centerline of cooling lines or solids of cooling lines from a mold design? We are being requested this from customers and simulation contractors.

Hello,It is impossible for me to open my files generated in pvz by Creo on my Ipad through the CreoView app. Here is my export configuration file : I load my file on icloud, chose send to Creo View, the app opens and... nothing happened. Any solution or advices ? Thanks in advance.

Hello,in a toolkit application I need to know if an edge is an inner or an outer edge.In the attachment I have an example what I mean with inner and outer edge.What I have up to now:I use visit functions to get all the edges in the part model. A function to determine if the edge is "inner" or "outer" seems not to exist (I found none). But there is the function ProEdgeNeighborsGet(), which has the two surfaces for every edge as an output parameter. Is ist possible to get the inner/outer information with this two surfaces? Or is there another procedure to get the information.Any help would be appreciated.regards HP   

Good morning,    I'm having a similar issue, the thread note that you are seeing is a note of a cosmetic thread,  In the holes made with standard hole   i can apply the note that i would from the .hol file but in the hole made with cosmetic thread i'm not able to understand from where it's taken and i can't edit. Even if in the cosmetic hole thread i'm selecting the same library of the standard hole with the "right " note i'm not able to obtain the result this i want.    any suggestion?   Thanks!   Reference topic: https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Cosmetic-Thread-Class-Issue-Creo-5-0/m-p/612900#M65730 

As part of our migration to Creo 8 / Windchill 12, we came up w/ smart formats fed by parameters in our new start parts.    When we have a new part on a new format life is ezpz. However, if we have an existing part w/o the required parameters things get complicated.  I came up w/ a mapkey to add the needed parameters to the existing part that works well when we want to put this part on a new format. Problem lies in a relation we have in our new start parts.  It's the one below that sets the value of the MATERIAL parameter equal to the value of PTC_MATERIAL_DESCRIPTION.  Each material has a defined description in it.        /*This relation sets the material parameter equal to the material description thru a yes/no parameter      IF (USE_MATL_DEF_DESC)==YES      MATERIAL=material_param("PTC_MATERIAL_DESCRIPTION")      ENDIF      /*This information needs to be pasted int

Has anyone taken the Creo Certification courses, and if so, was it worth it?  Do you maintain your certification once you've earned it? I primarily work with "complete machining" extension.  I've been using Creo since 2012, currently on Creo 10.  I did a lot more modeling back when I started, but now we receive models from the engineering group and I use them to program the manufacturing. I did go about reaching out to Sales about the associated costs.  My fear is that the courses are sort of entry level and will be a waste of my time.  It appears that it may be an opportunity to see some of the work with the High Speed Milling extensions without having to purchase those licenses. Anyhow, I'd appreciate any input on how other's experiences have been with these certification courses. Thank you,Matt 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0Unable to add transitions or multiple radius values when using the D1 x D2 conic option.

When exporting a cad model as a PDF U3D I select to export annotations and parameters in the content tab however when i open Adobe Acrobat reader, I cannot find the parameters. There is a side section that has property and value columns but no which part I select those columns do not populate. Where are the parameters?

I am having sketching problems when it comes to uniting even simple segments.Maybe my config.pro settings are off, but CREO 10 / Win10 is butchering even the simplest connections between an arc and a segment, or even between two angled segments.Is there a way to fix those red dots? Like uniting them together or something...No matter how much I magnify to see what the problem is, CREO still shows them on the same line, but in the end makes them red anyway!Drives me completely nuts!!!Maybe my settings are wrong, or not set up to snap correctly, but I do not know where to look.

I want to start to use the multibody in the sheet metal. But I need first to implement this feature in my drawing. On my drawing all my drawing, I have a table with the Radius, thickness, K-factor, and a relation that calculate the Outside Bend allowance of my part. All this information is useful for the production. I have try with a test with 2 body, I have insert the body specific information &SMT_DFLT_BEND_RADIUS and &SMT_THICKNESS in the creation of my table, But it only take the base body information. I have also try to add this &SMT_BEND_ALLOWANCE_FACTOR, but the table does not accept this info. And if their a way to have a formula that change with each body to calculate the OBD for 90º of the part.  My old way to give the information still work, but only for a single body, or for a multibody part that are all Body linked. 

I wanted to enable same numbering logic as Windchill OIR on File Name attribute in Creo while creating new object in Creo. With current configuration CAD Objects are creates e.g. PRT002.PRT as shown below  :  I already can create CAD object as per my define OIR as below : Please help me to get Windchill OIR configure to Creo to create CAD objects with same numbering scheme.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.7.0I want to understand how to use the Find tool. If I look for Curve Features and leave an asterisk in the Value field in the Criteria section, the list shows a lot curves found in the model, presumably all of them. It looks like all or most of the curves start with F, like F103(BASE_CIRCLES). But if I type F* in the Value field, zero results appear.I want to understand how this makes sense. Because I want to understand how to use the Find tool effectively. I knew I was trying to find F103, but I didn't know the full name was F103(BASE_CIRCLES). How am I suppose to use the Find tool to find it if the asterisk doesn't work how it normally does? Am I suppose to read through the list of all curves until I find the one I'm looking for? Surely that isn't the case.

I created a local section view on a model back view and I can't get the spline that demarcates the edges of the section view to show up. The spline only appears when I have the dialogue box open for editing the view. As soon as I close out the box, the spline disappears but the section remains. I would like the spline to remain on the view. How can I do this?

How can I write a nastran input deck from my creo simulation study

Hello, I'm an intermediate Java developer and I'm curious about how to use extrusion and other commands with the Toolkit class. I've gone through the documentation but couldn't find a clear solution. If anyone has experience with this, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.

Hi everyone,   I stop using Creo after 22 years and want like to share all my training videos (with practice parts) to Creo community.    You can watch it for free on Youtube. I created the playlist as below - Creo 3.0 Essential - Creo 3.0 Advance Drawing - Creo 3.0 Mold Design - Creo 4.0 3X Mill - Creo 6.0 Essential (90% same with Creo 3.0 Essential) - Creo 6.0 Product Design - Creo UDF & Family Table - Creo Tip & Trick (Part 1) - Creo Tip & Trick (Part 2) - Creo Tip & Trick (Part 3)   All video is in Vietnamese but you can find the summary of content for each clip in the clip's description.
