Creo+ and Creo Parametric

How can I get the start and end point (as a pfcPoint3D_ptr) using a pfcArcDescriptor_ptr object in object toolkit c++?  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0When printing to pdf, lines and symbols become heavy. Drawings made prior print to pdf clearly. New drawings do not.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.12.0There is a "mirrored bodies id" feature in my part. When I updated the part it was referencing the mirrored part did not get updated. How can I edit this to fix it? There is not a "edit definition" when I click on the "mirrored bodies id" feature.

Hi this is YJ I'm using the creo 11 these day. every-things is better than creo 9.but i got problem on layer tree.when i open the data i can see the layer tree every time.even if I turn it off or change min size this. it come up on my screen every time.somebody help me how to solve it.

Our team really wants to be able to turn this text off when working in Assembly mode in Creo Parametric 3:   I have dug through Config.Pro options for hours, and I can't seem to turn this off!   Does anyone know how to remove this text display/overlay from the Assembly Window?     Thank you in advance!

We noticed that after moving from CREO 4 to CREO 9 (9.0.7.0), the behavior in the drawing when inserting symbols from the symbol palette changed.In the older version (CREO 4), when inserting a symbol from the palette, the system directly asked for a variable (if the symbol contained a variable), the user either wrote the variable or confirmed the preset value defined in the symbol.For example, when inserting the roughness symbol Ra, it could be written immediately upon insertion as, for example, 0.8 (while the preset value in my symbol is 3.2). In CREO 9, a variable cannot be written when inserting a symbol. The symbol is inserted and only then can the variable be overwritten via editing "Symbol Customization" command inside Symbol ribbon. It slows down the work terribly. Is there config option so that the symbol immediately prompts for the variable as before?? 

Is it possible to break the dependency of a mirrored part? I am wanting to mirror parts with geometry dependent initially so any changes are pushed to the mirrored part, to save time, as the majority of changes will apply to both parts. However, sometimes we need to make changes to one of the parts but not it's mirror. Can this be accomplished by undoing the "geometry dependent" setting somehow? Attached are some screenshots of the options/settings I'm seeing when creating the mirror and then when editing definition of the mirrored bodies feature.  I am using Creo 8. Thanks!-Matt

How do you get back the classic nc step/sequences? ThanksMike

Hello all,   is it possible to set search function to search thrue all subdirectoriers? (Creo 2.0 M200) Don´t need permanent settings --> something like "now search thrue all" ,when l realy need it... We don´t use Windchill and any other PDM   Thanks for any help Milan Bonka

Hey guys, for example if i have a part with 7 bodys, can i split it to an assembly with 7 parts? That means only 1 body in every part. THX,John

PTC provided multi-body concepts from Creo Parametric 7.0 and it looks more like Catia's multi-body strategy than SW or NX, but other behaviours looks like SW/NX such as operating boolean or fillet, chamfer, e.g.Catia: 1.1. All features not only boolean operatings can only be applied on actived part-body;1.2. Part-body needs to be created before any features founded in Catia, more than 1 splitting solid can be contained in each part-body.SW & NX: 2.1. Creat boolean operatings and then choose which body we wanna apply, other features can be directely applied on the body without active(None active concept to be exact) ;2.2. Automatically creat 1 body per splitting solid that we can't choose how many splitting solids 1 body can hold.Creo: 3.1. Creat boolean operatings and then choose which body we wanna apply, other features can be directely applied on the body without active(None active concept to be exact) ;3.2. Part-body can be created before or after any features fo

Hello All,I have a large 3D scan that I am working with, and trying to build a basic skeleton structure around it. So creating a few sketches and datum features (planes & axis). Now here is the issue. If I redefine any of those features, any reference to the scan has a "frozen reference" note in front of the reference/feature name (see attached image). Been using Creo (Pro/E) for over 30 years and I have never seen anything like this. If the reference was missing, I would get it. But it's not missing. What gives? Not sure how to fix this.BTW, using Creo 10 TIA, Victor

I want to connect this corner vertex to this sketch line.  The coincident constraint won't let me connect them.  They are in different sketches and on different planes if that matters.

Using CREO 6, it was easy to route a cable by selecting an axis for "from" and the ending axis as "to" after selecting "Allow Location" under "Options."  However, as new user to CREO 8, I am unable to select any axes and have to use a coordinate system instead--usually not as convenient.  Is there a way to use an axis for routing in CREO 8?

These sketch lines are only displayed when they are clicked on in the feature tree.  How can I get them to display in the model so that they can be used as reference geometry?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0In older versions we could set the active model in a multi model drawing and then select a symbol that was all ready placed on the drawing. It would open and close using the active model information to file in custom symbol parameters. This functionality appears to have been lost.

Hello, I am currently building a VBA application to automate a few things in my creo daily workflow and unfortunately I am stuck because I am not able to retrieve a model type variable from a componente type feature variable. I am thinking about model descriptors. I can create it but I am struggling trying assign it to the model. The idea is to reach the model by reading the model descriptor present in the correspondent feature variable. thank you in advance! 

Hi all! Trying to replicate this wave design in Creo (currently using 4.0) but having some issues... Thought the easiest way would be to divide the wave in 4-5 sections and use boundary blend to merge sketches of the waves profile in the sections. (Then thickening the surface to make it a solid.) But the sharpest top of the waves doesn't behave the way I want. I've tried using the "control points" option in the boundary blend tool to control the shape, but I'm far from happy. Before going down the rabbit hole of adjusting the control points until I get something remotely resembling the wave, I thought I'd seek out some help from better users than me to see if this is the way to go or not. Or if it's even possible to make such a design in Creo.TLDR: Trying to replicate this (or similar) wave design. What's the easiest way of doing that? Cheers!Wave inspiration 1Wave inspiration 2Wave sectionsWave boundary blendWave boundary blend with control points

I am using Creo Parametric 7.0, 7.0.2.0,At drawing application, when using "Show model Annotations" in order to bring out specific dimensions from the CAD model, for example, a 3D annotation derived from a datum plane (the dimension in question is the offset dimension from a datum plane to another datum plane in order to create it), it's shown correctly on a particular drawing view, but if the datum plane on the drawing view is hiden using layers, the dimension it's also gone, leaving only a suppressed dimension on the drawing tree. If the view is manually updated, the dimension is back, but if using "Draft Update", the dimension is gone again. The dimension it's left in a status of showing but then gone if the drawing is updated. Apparently CREO consider the dimension also a datum plane.Thanks for any advise.

Hi everyone, im working with some assemblies that each of them has been created independently. My question is, can i add several external assemblies to a family table? or i have to create again each and everyone of them from the biggening from a main assembly?Thanks for helping me out. Best regard.

Hi All, When I register 3 different creo toolkit application all together, manubar and pushbutton name appear same for all, (same as per 1st registered application) But when I register each application per each new session, manubar and pushbutton name its correct. Problem starts, when I register 2nd application in same session. Please let me know, how to resolve. Thanks in advance
