Creo Advanced Assembly Tips & Techniques Session Recording (East Coast)

Webcast Q&A

Question from Anonymous:  Is skeleton model standard offer or special installation needed?

Answer:  No special installation needed but you do need the Advanced Assembly Extension (AAX) module.

Question from Anonymous:  From which Creo version onwards is skeleton available?

Answer:  Skeletons have been around since Pro/E 14 (back in the early 90s).

Question from Anonymous:  How does Windchill deal with skeletons?

Answer:  Windchill does not build a WTPart but it does know it is in the assembly.

Question from Anonymous:  Can you start with parts and build the skeleton later?  It is hard to understand what's happening with the skeleton when I don't see anything.

Answer:   Yes, but then you would use it for positioning mostly.

Question from Walter:  How can you tell if a part was changed and no longer fits, or interferes?

Answer:  Windchill always marks models as modified that have been changed and interferences can always be seen with a Global Interference check.
