Other Creo Products (View/Sketch/Illustrate/Layout/ Schematics and Creo Direct)

We're using Creo Illustrate 2. We have several ".prt" files that we would like to convert to ".ol" files so they can be added to the Symbol Library (so they can be shown in drawings but not appear in Parts Lists). How is this done?Obviously, ditto for ".asm" files.Thanks in advance!Tom BurtonZebra Technologies

Bonjour,   Je souhaiterai sur une mise en pland'un assemblage exclure de ma coupe un sous assemblage sans passer par l'exclusion pièce par pièce.

I love the trim tool where any line you touch gets trimmed back.  Please add another feature that makes the inverse happen. Any 2 or more lines you scribble over get extended until they intersect. This would be a super fast way to connect multple line segments. It also would make it so you dont have to pick directly on the line to extend.  You could make an icon smilar to the trim tool, but maybe with a green squiggly line for extend instead of red for trim.   Thansk, Steve CampbellThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Hi! When we assemble model, are we able to make moving parts? (e.g the shaft of a watergun pump that can only extend a certain length) also, my model contains plastic tubes - am I able to make them bendy? or illustrate they can bend?

hi everybody - in an animation I want to show a belt drive with six wheels. To show the wheels rotating is easy, while showing the belt moving is not satisfactory for me until now. I used the funcion 'oscillate' from the effects dropdown menue, but now it looks like a Micky Mouse drive, where the belt nearly jumps off the wheels. Is there a chance to manipulate the effects more precisely? For example, if the belt would only show a very slight movement, then the illusion of a driving belt would be perfect.

Hello,does anyone know how to re-activate a c3di file after a crash of CreoIllustrate 1.0?I had deleted a small animation from a figure and I had already a few times the error message from Windows7-64 bit as shown in the attached screenshot creo_absturz_sml.jpg.Today I had a similar situation in an c3di-Illustration with about 6 or 7 figures, when I had deleted a 50 sec approx. animation from a figure and then wanted to save the illustration.When I now want to reopen the illustration, creoIllustrate states the error message shown in the scond attached screenshot. Is there a log or a backuptool installed with creoIllustrate which might help to use the file again? Otherwise, a lot of work would be lost to Nirvana....The text from the error message says, the illustration might be used by someone else...? But I just restarted the computer and the first action was to start CreoIllustrate and to try opening the file, so...

This is a replica of a lego model that i had when i was young.... never to young to play with legos around 650 pieces... all made in Pro/E. The Animation and Rendering was also made in Pro/E. Hope you like!     (view in My Videos)

Hello!If I open in Creo Illustrate two different files "3CDI", then how can I switch between their open windows (shortcut "Tab", "Alt+Tab" does not work)?

Hi,We meet a problem to load Creo View Ecpress in Extjs Panel, the following is what we have tried:Use function ProductView in pvlaunch.js. By this way, only show a blank area in ExtJS’s panel, and the browser has an error message says IE is installing pvvercheck_ie.The code is as following:var creoview ="<table border='1' width='50%' height='70%'>"+ "<tr>" + "<td border='3' width='50%' height='70%'>"+ "<script "+">"+ ProductView('',mediaObject)+ "<"+"/script>"+ "</td>" + "</tr>" + "</table>";2. Use embed tagUse this way, it can show the full menu of Creo View, but can’t load PVZ illustrate, the error message is can’t find the illustrate through the path, but if set the path to absolute path, it even can’t show the menu of Creo View.The code is as following:<div style='font-size:12;z-index:-9999;'><embed width='100%' height='92%' src='mediaObject.pvz'/><div style='text-align:right'>icn</div><br><div sty

Hello!I try to carry out following actions:1. I have a 3D ISO file from Arbortext IsoDraw 7.1 M070, which contains some 3D assembly.2. I upload this 3D ISO file into Creo View MCAD 1.0 M030, and then save it in a PVZ format.3. If you try to import the PVZ file into Creo Illustrate 1.0 M030 (by using "Import" -> "Embed" option) it displays only the structure of the assembly, but does not have the 3D model in the working window . But at the same time, the PVZ file can be opened in Creo View Express, and everything is OK here. Is this a bug?

Hello!Does the PTC has plans to support the Russian language (full translation of the user interface/menu; support for the Cyrillic letters in titles of files and in saving/opening paths) in a future release of Creo Illustrate? Any comments?

Hello!I use Creo Illustrate 1.0 M030. It seems that when you try to change the coordinate system for one of the parts (from imported JT assembly into Creo Illustrate) you cannot select any other elements of the geometry of the parts (like: point, edge, face etc.) but only can select the whole part . And in this case the filter selection is set as "Smart". Can someone verify this (this is a bug)? I am attached to the message JT assembly. Thanks.

Hello - does anyone know, if there is a special trick to import *.jt files and unigrafics files (*.prt)?Although the product information sheet "6714–Creo Illustrate–DS–0611-de.pdf" states supporting both file types in CreoIllustrate I cannot open neither *.jt nor *.prt. For *.prt files CreoIllustrate even shows the extension in the import dialog.

Hello!I think that it need to be added into Creo Illustrate the ability to import CAD models using a relative path to locate the source CAD file. That is, need to create a check box that allows the user to use or not a relative path for the inserted/imported 3D CAD model. I hope this feature will be implemented in the next version of Creo Illustrate. So what do you think?"Link" option in Creo Illustrate 1.0 M030 ("File" -> "Import" -> "Link"):Need to added check-box option "Use relative file path":

When there will be a "Creo Illustrate 1.0 Read This First" guide for service release M030 released in section "Reference Documents" on PTC site : http://www.ptc.com/appserver/cs/doc/refdoc.jsp ?

Hello!What is planned new in release Creo Illustrate 2.0 (release F000 scheduled for Spring 2012)? Whether beta testing for release 2.0 will be opened?

Hello - gibt es bereits in deutschen Firmen Anwender? Ich bin mit ProductView Version 6 und 8 "groß geworden" und versuche nun, mit CreoIllustrate klar zu kommen.Mein im Moment dringlichstes Problem: wie kann ich den Ursprung des virtuellen Trackballs verlegen bzw. wie kann ich Achsen definieren?Ich muß bei einem Filtergehäuse einen Deckel an den Scharnieren aufklappen, und der Trackball ist immer nur in der Mitte des Deckels.Also Anderherum gefragt: wie kann ich den Selektierten Deckel um die Scharniere drehen?Grüsse aus Bremen

I have a very simple assembly which I have created to illustrate my problem (see attached picture).   My question is fairly simple.....   I would like to know if (and how), I can restructure "PART_1.prt" so that it belongs to "TOP_LEVEL.asm" instead of "SUB_ASSY.asm"   In other words, I would like to make "PART_1.prt" a level 1 component, rather than a level 2 component.   I don't want to delete it from the SUB_ASSY and re-add it to the TOP_LEVEL, as this will destroy the dimensions in drawing of the TOP_LEVEL.asm   Best Regards.
