I created a flat (non-Isometric) circle.  Typed some text, is there a way to have the text wrap around that 2d flat circle?  I know you can project to an ellipse, cylinder etc. but I am trying to do it 2d plane view.

Currently, I think that PTC's business model is killing innovation and is a lose-lose situation.  Currently maintenance includes technical support, minor version updates/builds/fixes, and new major versions.  This means that PTC has very little stock in improving its own software.  This hurts both PTC and the customer.   I propose reconsidering this business model by doing the following: Split current maintenance cost into 2 categories: Maintenance and new products Maintenance cost should only be for maintenance.  More specifically the following: Technical support Patches Builds (including software compatibility updates) Why are major upgrades included in the cost of maintenance?  New products should have the mutual incentive to get more capability for the user and more money for the software company (PTC).  If the capability is not with the cost to upgrade, then the user doesn't pay for it.  If the user sees significant improvements, than th

In Creo View (V3.0 M032), printing multi-sheet drawings (CGM format) will print all sheets by default.  Several people want to have the setting "Current" to be the default.  I have not seen any preference for this.

Hi,short question: can i modify the CV3.1 start Picture (with the racecar) ?i want to start yith my own Picture and the datecode.ThanksRalf

Target: JT format as import format in CREO-Illustrate for the documentation of customer services   needed for: Data preparation for the documentation of customer services, JT characteristic for customer service demands   Acceptance Criteria: • The “Intelligence Protection“ (removal of meta data, PMIs, BREPs, etc.) must be considered when creating JT data. • JT data needs to be positioned in the system “CREO-Illustrate“: (precondition: availability of canonical elements) • Lower data volume (max. 5% larger than JT without BREP)   Advantages: • Significant improvement of the JT data handling in subsequent process. • Increased data security through missing BReps • Reduction of the data volume through missing BReps • Faster JT data creation compared to JTs with BReps • Observing corporate directive

Hi,I have been using PTC Creo View Express. I like how I can do markups on the actual 3D file & take a snapshot of the final complete image of what I want. Is there a possible way I can export it out to save my work as PVZ file or a 3D file? I tried exporting as test, can not get it to activate:I only have the options posted: I looked online and it look like potentially you could? Let me know if this is possible! Thank you for your time,Liza

Creo Schematics Crashes when submit action performed for submitting Artifacts to Temporary Submission. What is the reason for this and how can this be resolved.

I am trying to fix the issue of drawings printing black from Creo viewer.  I am looking at Document CS94057 and under the workarounds section, it says Set PV_OFF_SCREEN_SIZE_LIMIT=2048 as a System Environment Variable in the Creo View runtime environmentWhere can I find the System Environment Variable in the Creo View runtime environment?Thanks,Alyssa

What is present: callout leader line weight is changable in interface. Idea:  It would be desirable to do the same with the callout label so the border of geometrical form (circle, square...) matches the weight of the leader line. It would also be desirable to add the possibility to change XML code by adding a property such as weight="Xpt" in shape code as shown in the following code XML code: <annotation id="partno" hasLeaders="true">      <name locid="Part Number" />      <description locid="Part Number Callout Style" />      <tooltip locid="Part Number Callout" />      <thumbnail url="partno_callout_img.png" />      <leaders>           <line-style weight="1pt" color="#000000" halo="false" dashes="Solid" start="none" />      </leaders>      <label

Hello,I would like to import a couple of symbols into my Creo Illustrate Library.Is there a possibility to import multiple Items at once?Thank you for your help

The continued growth of ASME Y14.41, Digital Product Definition Practices, in the CAD community and throughout commercial and defense arena needs to be further integrated in Creo. PTC has been aggressively moving forward with adoption to ASME Y14.41, and the inclusion of annotation planes into the product is exciting and welcome. The overall move toward using digital 3-D CAD data, rather than traditional 2-D drawing, provides great efficiencies and overall quality. Where even greater efficiencies can be obtained is to have the sketch plane during feature creation, be done in the annotation plane. Currently, the annotation plane is a virtual drawing surface. Thus basically moving the effort of drawing creation into the annotation plane, which in effect does not lower the time to create the product. Merely, it is a transfer of effort from one space, 2-D to 3-D. Seems as though the sketch plane and annotation plane can be one in the same. One could argue, how would sketches created in dif

Anyone know how to control the line weights of sketched entities or entities imported on a drawing as DXF entities in Creo View? All of the Creo View entities look great with the exception of these. They appear to have a line weight of roughly 10X of everything else on the drawing in Creo View. However, when viewed in the Creo drawing itself, they look identical to regular items on the drawing.

We have suddenly encountered a problem company wide where when doing certain actions in CreoView, like selecting File/Options causes CreoView to utilize all CPU Physical Memory and causes the CPU to become unresponsive for several minutes.   This just started happening where it was fine before.  Any suggestions?CreoView 3.0

Hello,My company is starting to use Illustrate in our tech pubs dept. We are trying to open a giant assembly that has different Reps saves in the creo file. Does Creo Illustrate have the ability to show these different Reps. And if so how?Also often when we open a PVZ or STEP file, all of the sub assembly names come into the tree but the parts and assemblies do not show up, even if you click on the model tree and say hide / unhide.Thank you for your time and look forward to your responseCraig G

Is it possible to bring a photograph into a Creo Illustrate 3 drawing?Can a photo be saved into some format such that it can be imported into a Creo Illustrate drawing? If so, when you want to use the photo (for example, to clarify a procedural step), all the other items in the sBOM could be hidden and the photo made visible. The rest of the time, the photo could be kept hidden.Anyone try something like this? Any success or ideas?Thanks in advance,Tom BurtonZebra Technologiesp.s. --- Does PTC monitor these Community boards? They used to answer at least some of the questions, but recently they don't seem to be present.

Almost everything else can be used for construction, why not projected curves?

Where can I find any documentation of how to configure and use the Creo View Express as a plugin in a webbrowser like Firefox.So far I'm doing a <embed height="100%" width="100%" name="plugin" src="nvidia-demo.pvz" type="application/x-pvlite9-ed">It is displayed correctly but I want to disable the toolbar, for example.Furthermore I need access to the JavaScript API to be able to communicate with the plugin.I'm using Creo View Express, Version Creo 2.0, Datecode F000 build 23.Thanks a lot for your help.Thomas

First semester teaching Creo 3.0 and I have found that it is difficult for students to see detail on the screen as I present. I will switched the system color scheme to black on white with a couple other tweaks to color and found that helped. Is it possible to change the font and size of sketch dimensions and constraint symbols? It would be beneficial to be able to make this larger/bolder. What other options make Creo easier on the eyes when displayed with a projector? Is there a good resource out there?Thanks.
