Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello,We received from customer Bend table in format which SolidWorks read well, so we are trying to apply that in Creo (Creo 11.0.3), but as we noticed Creo has a little bit different format. It has radius and thickness and values inside are bend allowance if i understood correctly, and the table from SW have thickness, radius , bend angle (which is not affecting k-factor if u see table, so it can be ignored), and k factor as value derived (0.618, 0.619, 0.693....). Does anyone know how that should be applied in Creo and have maybe some examples, or is bend table a right way in Creo to apply this.

Is this possible?  I somehow was thinking I was editing one of my exploded views, but I was actually editing the default view and accidentally changed/saved it.   Can a component(s) be moved back to its original, unexploded position?   Now, every new exploded view I create starts off with the wrong, default explode....

I created this desktop application for managing IFX fastener catalogs. Create new catalogs, add fasteners from templates, and append data rows to existing fastener files. You can also import premade fastener catalogs from McMaster Carr.Compatible with Creo 6 or later.https://github.com/mbourque/ifx_customizer  

Hello, I have random lines on my part and don't know how to hide them. These lines are the exact ones that show when saving an STL file. Does someone know how I can get rid of them?

Greetings, Looking for ideas on how to report sum length of cable spool based on custom length per spool segment used in cable harness.example:spool A - length=L1, custom_length (driven from relation) =CL1, spool used N1 times in harness.total length of spool A =?the problem i have is that I can’t make any relation as there is no way to use rep.qty for cable spools in a harness.summation function is also not very flexable. I would prefer if it was function then I could create a relation with If (example: if spool a name==A sum).Is there another simpler way to solve it? Practically best solution I found is to generate the table  > export to CSV > make simple excel relation.

I am the IT guy , not a user of CREO. For no apparent reason, our company has stayed on Creo 6 for a long time and it is beginning to cause some issues. The download isnt even on the site directly. Seems to be lack of support for newer PCs, etc. I only anticipate more problems.  Question is: How much trouble is it going to be to upgrade to 12 from 6 in terms of people learning the new software and problems opening files? Can the 2 co-exist on a PC in case there were a problem. 

I am running model check on a top level assembly. When I look at the assembly report there are parts that have errors however when i go into those parts or open them separately to run model check there are no errors. 

I am trying to achieve one or both things - Disable what I’ll call “context-based filters” for commands. For instance - in order to add a hatch to a surface in a drawing, as far as I can tell, I must have layout tab active, and surface selected as the selection filter. If these aren’t absolute requirements, there seem to be many cases where hatch/fill isn’t available to me. It isn’t always intuitive to determine how to “expose” certain commands, and so I’d like to be able to disable default “context-based filters.”  If above isn’t possible, is there a clear way to review commands and see what their requirements are? In the above example - how to know the requirements of ‘hatch/fill.’ I find it cumbersome to look up and remember the conditions for each command. I have been doing this and creating my own table, but it is becoming a burden to my workflow.If neither are possible, “not possible” will suffice. Thanks in advance.

Would anyone know if you can reference the Component Feature Number (not internal feature ID) in a relation for a filter in an assembly drawing repeat region?Wanting to use features in an assembly model tree, 2 features at a time using their location in an assembly model tree to control what components are displayed in an assembly drawing BOM table on a particular sheet.Basically, if the components are between any 2 features in the model tree that I specify, I want to show them and only the quantities for the parts in the BOM table repeat region on a drawing sheet for the components that reside between the 2 features in the model tree.Features would be named Sheet_2, Sheet_3, Sheet_4, Sheet_5, etc. and could be an annotation feature, datum plane, or other feature.Repeat region filter would be if greater than feature number for Sheet_2 and less than feature number for Sheet_3 display component info and qty of part in that section of model tree in BOM table.Each drawing sheet will build

Hello,I am looking for help with an issue involving sheet metal flat patterns, Creo Parametric, and Creo View.I am using Creo Parametric 10 and Creo View 12. When I create a flat pattern of a sheet metal part in Creo Parametric, the automatically generated bounding box overall length and width dimension annotations display correctly in Creo Parametric.However, when I open the corresponding file in Creo View, those automatically generated flat pattern bounding box dimensions do not appear in the Creo View viewable state.One thing I have noticed is that if I create manual dimensions in Creo Parametric, those manual dimensions do come through and display in Creo View correctly. The issue seems to be specific to the automatically generated dimensions created during flat pattern creation.Has anyone else seen this behavior with automatically generated flat pattern bounding box dimensions not publishing or displaying in Creo View? Are there any settings, publishing options, annotation display

In Creo assembly design, is it a good practice to first validate the concept using Layout, then define a Skeleton model, and finally create parts within the assembly using skeleton references?Does this approach help avoid assembly issues, or are there better recommended workflows?

I have old ProE workspaces but I cannot open them. I get this errorerror messageIs there anyway to open these? I know there are files in there because I was able to open them with an old copy of ProE. That is no longer an option. Any ideas?

Hello !Using Creo Parametric 9.0.3 here.When I am creating a hole, the default placement type is Linear.Is there a way to change this to something else, like Sketched ? I have looked for a config.pro option but found nothing so far.

In a smartassembly script, is there a way to tie an IF statement to some type of GOTO command?

Hi everyone,I'm working on a Creo Toolkit (Pro/Toolkit) application and need to create a blend feature programmatically.The version of Creo Parametric I am using is 6.0.I have created two sketches (Sketch1 and Sketch2) and need to generate a blend solid/surface based on these two sections. I have searched for relevant information online, but there are almost no usable examples or clear API documentation regarding the creation method of blend features in Toolkit secondary development. Thank you in advance for any insights or code examples.

When I create break lines for bolt heads and connecting holes, the cylindrical surface has no directional selection, so sometimes the break lines connect directly, while other times they connect with a bent line from the back, making it look messy. Has anyone encountered this problem, and how did you solve it?

用自由式制作造形，想在现有的基础上修改一下，又不想破坏现有造形，采用了复制，但发现复制出来的与原图误差比较大，请问有什么方法可以解决吗 

Hello,I am working on application in Web.Link. My goal is to build text to look like Creo is displaying it when note contains dimensions:Raw text:“This note: &d24”Creo display:“This note: Ø14 +0,05”Web.Link using GetTextLines(“DISPMODE_SYMBOLIC”)“This note: \u0001n\u000214”“\u0001n\u0002” => Ø“&d24” => 14 (dimension value)Regardless of mode I choose “Numeric” or “Symbolic” I can`t get “&d24”. If I have this I could ask for tolerance and build my text exactly like Creo is resolving it.I consider this as an issue with documentation that is clearly saying that when you use “Symbolic” mode text should not be resolved. (the same is for parameters in text)Link to documentation:https://support.ptc.com/help/creo_toolkit/pfcweblink_pma/r11.0/usascii/index.html#page/creo_toolkit/api/dita/t-pfcDetail-DetailTextDisplayOption.html#wwID0EI5XSBIs there a mistake in my approach? Is any one having a wokraound ?

I am using Creo Parametric 10.0.4.0 and performing a Model Check on a part and I am looking at the warning for "Annotations with incorrect surface references" which has the name ANNTN_SEM_REF_TEXT_VERIFY.It is telling me that I have the incorrect number of annotations with incorrect surface references.  I am trying to indicate that there are two surfaces that are 1.450 away from datum B, so in the references, I have datum B in the "first dimension reference" and then the two surfaces in the "second dimension reference."  So why is Model Check flagging this?  Am I doing it incorrectly?

Hey,I saved a volume measurement (shown in model tree) and then I created a paramter using a relation. I want to add a unit to the parameter but it is locked. So how do I add the units to locked parameters?How do I change the decimal value in this drawing title block. I want to show 0.73mm^3 or maybe 0.7mm^3
