Creo Elements Direct

Please quickly respond regarding the support for CreoElements/Direct License Server 20.8 on Windows Server 2025.In recent years, the servers available for purchase primarily use Windows Server 2025,and it is expected that more customers will be unable to downgrade to 2022 due to compatibility with other systems.

Just wondering if anyone has either gone through the Windows 10 to 11 upgrade while running Express 8.0 to see if it works, or has installed on a Windows 11 PC.Thanks

Hello,   I am using creo elements/direct modeling version 20.6. I have noticed that it's still not possible to open a drawing straight from the model tree. Would it be possible to write a script or custom command to do this? Because now you have to go to the masterdata first and find the drawing there.    Other solutions for this problem are also welcome.   Kind regards. Siebe

Hello,I'm having a problem with PTC Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.5.2.0 : Sometimes I loose the little "cross" next to the cursor resulting in me unable to select anything (see attached files). I tried to close the viewport but nothing changed. The only way to get the cross back is to restart Creo. I can't find a way to reproduce consistantly the problem.

Hello,i've done an update from Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.2 to Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.7.1.1.Now the same assemblies are very slow in zooming and have sometimes a delay in movement.I use WIN10 Pro, HP Z4 G4 Workstation with Nivdia Quadro P2000 and 2x16GB DDR4 RAM. Can i make any settings or hardware upgrade to make the programm as fast as it was with V20.2? Or should i install a version beetween V20.2 and V20.7 with more functions than V20.2 but comparable speed?BR, Chris

Hi Guys,For my opinion, perhaps, the "sheet and the frame in Annotation" are not in accordance with UNI EN ISO 5457-2002. In attached you can find an extract of normative. In particular, the sheet folding references are in wrong condition. What is your opinion?   

Hello, I'm new here and have downloaded creo elements /direct. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to change this to German. The zip file was labeled EN, I didn't find another one.  mfg

Greetings-I inherited a RHEL 7 license server with several instances of lmgrd running various vendor products including creo. The existing license was expired, got a new license generated changed the Server/Daemon lines for server name/daemon path and restarted the service.  In the logs I see ptc_d exited with status 34 (invalid host) I have verified that the MAC address is correct, and goggled the error. The only reference I see for a status 34 was from 2017/RHEL 6 which I'm skeptical if its still relevant. Downloaded the latest LMGRD & ptc_d from PTC with no change. I'm at a loss on this one, can someone give me shove in the right direction? Thanks in advance,

I was able to copy this activation key, which is valid for 72 hours, and paste it into the Manual Product Activation window to use it.The first time, I was able to use it for 72 hours without any problems. After 72 hours have passed, I want to use it again, so I do the same thing, but this time a window appears saying that key is incorrect and I can't use it. Question:Is this 72 hour activation just a for one-time use?

We recently moved to CED 20.6.2.0Now some models are not visible. Both in assemblies and loaded as single model. They ARE present in the structure browser, but they don't show up in the viewport. When "double clicked" they do highlight in the viewport.For some models changing the resolution makes them visible (although other models with the same resoltion are visible).Copying the invisible model makes the copy visible.Modifying the invisible model makes it visible.

Hello.I'm using Creo Elements/Direct Modeling (x64 edition) Revision: 20.1.2.0, and every time I export a SLT file, I need to change the maximum deviation value. Is there a way to lock these values to create a default parameter?
