    Yeah, happened to notice it on the 17th even though the date on it was the 18th. I actually installed it on the 18th. No crashes or random issues, yet.

    is the "save a copy" window in assembly, diagonally scalable in the latest maintenance release?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    I'm using M030 without particular problem. Do you recommend me to upgrade to M080 or to stay at M030?

    Thank you.

    To All,

    Don't waste your time on M080. Just received a confirmation from Senoir Engineer @ PTC that it has a bad bug which does not allow you to save objects....and I have experienced it first hand here @ Atlas. What a let down....just wanted to keep all informed.

    By itself or related to PDM?

    In our specific case related to PDM, since we are using Windchill 10.1 M020. I don't think it will matter though. I have not received the specifics back from tech support, but it had something to do with objects that were set as read only (which can be done with or without PDMLink) were having issues saving at various levels inside assemblies and drawings....Matt, have you tested without PDM to see?

    Could someone point out to me where I can find the release notes for M080? I couldn't find this on the support page.

    Guys,

    M080 is crap, please see my related post about saving issues and respective SPR.

    So I would be correct in saying M080 is a complete wash?

    Saving seems to be a rather important requirement.

    Is Bryant the only one running into this issue? There must be some kind of a context that brings this issue on; otherwise it would seem there would be a huge out cry on the forum.

    It's funny that I looked at another forum post that claimed M080 was the most stable of the Creo releases.

    Without knowing what brings the save issues on I will not install this version.

    Hey Paul,

    I would say that. My thoughts exactly and I voiced this to a Senior Level Engineer in Walthan from Tech. The issue appears to be only related to system which use Windchill PDMLink. Those without are not having issues like this from what I have read. There is an open SPR to fix, but looks like based on remarks from engineer @ PTC, that it will not be until M090.
