Hi Everyone, I am new to Creo View and trying to achieve the same in Creo View 10. Does anyone have a documentation link to do the same job viz, embed a Creo View control object to Any office Application? I do see that we have adapters/ Creo View toolkit for Office. But I am not sure where o start. Any links that can point me in the right direction would be helpful.   Reference topic: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Addtl-Creo-Products-View-Sketch/Using-Creo-View-models-in-PowerPoint/m-p/450791#M469    Thanks RM  

I am using Creo Schematics Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.0.0Check connections tool reports missing connection on one of my blocks. The fiber appears to be attached, but when trying to reattach, the line jumps to the bottom left corner of the screen and reports error Internal Error 002. The only work around I have found is completely deleting the fiber, and rerunning it, but this does not necessarily fix the missing connection error.Check database reports no errors.Here are the errors that I faced>>>> error <<<<Internal Error (002) occurred. Use the Check Database tool and contact technical support for assistance.

Hi All, My team is newly adopting Creo Illustrate.  I have ~5 years of experience with it myself. The issue we are running into relates to the newer feature of setting a Font for callouts and such.   The font in our company has in its branding is Roboto Condensed.  We have downloaded this font from Googlehttps://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto+Condensed Within the Windows Control Panel, we made sure to only install Roboto Condensed Regular 400.  We noticed if you have multiple versions of a font, it is challenging to tell Creo Illustrate which one to use.  We ensured it was the TTF version of the font.Within the Admin Tool, we set the font to Roboto Condensed.Inside Creo Illustrate, we built up callouts on our models.  The font displayed correctly, as Roboto Condensed Regular.  Now we have our issue.  When I "Save Figure As" as an SVG (with the following settings) -The SVG comes out as Arial Unicode MSI do see that

Hi Im having an issue and creo won't open my file, can anyone show me how to recover this please. Using Creo schematics 4.0   

In a Creo Illustrate Figure, is it possible to have a section view only displayed in the inset? I do not want the section view on the main parent model in the figure view, only the section view.

Is there a way to show offset lines in exploded views in Creo View 5.1?  The Exploded view seems to publish fine, but the offset lines do not show up even when all construction geometry features are checked in the config settings (see below).

How do I get combined state view states tabs to appear in the main display of Creo View if it is possible. I have Creo Parametric 11 and Creo View 10.1. 

JT structures with *.stpx-files as root-product cannot be openend in CreoView MCAD (new file type necessary as we regularly receive these data by OEM)

Hello everyone,Unfortunately I have lost my settings. So far I have been able to restore more or less all of them.What is still missing is the antialiasing when exporting 2D views with 300dpi and *.bmp.I have now spent 3 hours looking for the right setting....without success.Then I saw that there are also ‘Settings’ under ‘Publish’.Here I edited the entry ‘Creo 2D’ under ‘Publish/’2D images’ and set “Antialiasing” --> “High”. Unfortunately, this does not work.Questions:- How do I set antialiasing when exporting 2D illustrations?- Why are there separate settings ‘Options’ and ‘Publish/Settings’?- Why is the needed setting not under ‘Options/Global’, but only under ‘Options/Illustration’?- And why in God's name does a trained engineer have to spend 3 hours searching for the right setting? Best regardsRamon(Siemens-Energy)

At present a customers uses IsoDraw CADProcess for creating cgm files with hotspots. Customers would like to switch from IsoDraw to Creo Illustrate, but hotspotting functionality is missing in Creo Illustrate.   Thank you and best regards, Jozef.

So yeah , I was told that there wasn't a way to have Creo Illustrate deal with part change rolls of like XYZ-001 tolled to XYZ-002 without having to remarkup the whole dang file again.   Or deal with multiple versions of said file that were 95 percent the same with various small options that changed it.   Well figured it out.  

We have these models that we're viewing in Creo View that has thousands of objects in them.  Some of the objects in model have an associated wtpart but the source model file we have doesn't automatically link the model parts because we're not using Creo as our model.  Anyway, we can manually type in the wtpart number as a custom parameter in the source model and we can see it in Creo View. The question is, "Can Creo View automatically make a hyperlink to the wtpart if it recognizes that parameter as a wtpart number?"   The vision is that the user would click on the object in the model, then its parameters would come up, one of which being the wtpart number, and then the user would click the hyperlink and get to the wtpart page in Windchill.      Thanks

Is there any way to have a cursor select setting that only selects top level components in the structure in Creo View MCAD (aside from the top level assembly)? Any type of solution to this will do. (Creo View MCAD version 11 being used).

Hi @lhoogeveen , With reference to this topic  By the way how did you had this VB added into Creo view?

I am using Creo Schematics Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.0.0 how to add splices for more than 3 wires in Creo schematics.

I know this is a future question but perhaps a PTC PLM can chime in. I see that Cadence released version 24.1 last year. I was curious if Creo View Adapters 12 will support this version. The 11.1 version only supports up to 23.1. 

Hello all, I am facing the problem to publish some assemblies.  Error - Timeout Error  I gone through with some of the article for the same issue and troubleshooted by increasing the time from 3600 secs to 7200 - 10800 secs in WVS.properties file. But still assembly is failing with the same error. We are using monolithic environment and have 2 creo worker. What can i do to publish the assemblies succesfully.Any help would be much appreciated. Windchill Version - 12.0.2.7Creo Version - 8

All our parts lists are arranged in PN order.  So, we bring in the sBOM and click "Item Tag" to sort by PN.  Once the sort is complete, is there a way to have the software update the Sequence Number and ITM Label automatically in numerical order?  I spend a ton of time numbering the parts list to be in PN sequence order.  If it can't be done automatically, is there a way for me to input the new sequence number, short of clicking the up/down arrow over and over.  This is a real productivity killer when there are 100 or more items in an illustration.  Also, once I remove an item (using right-click delete item), is there a way to have Creo automatically update the Sequence Number and ITM Label for the subsequent numbers? Or do all of the Seq/ITM Labels have to be updated manually? Thanks! 

 

Hello,We're in the implementation of Creo Illustrate 9.1 to be use for representations in MPMLink Process Plan.We're getting bugs sometimes with c3di files not updating. Probably a basic question here, but looking for what is the right way to manage. Q1- When Revising a Process Plan and Illustration files, Does the source file needs to be included?Q2- I can't collect (not even have the option) to collect the source files when files are released and need to be added for a Change. Q3 - The revise option does not work when reising all objects at once. is this normal?Hope someone has some insight/solutions here.Thanks in advance!

Hi all,this is a topic that has been bothering me for a long time.Is there a way to apply the view orientation (perspective & zoom) of one image to another image? For example, I copied a figure 1 to a figure 2 and reoriented the view in the figure 2 and saved it. And then I realized that I would rather have the original view (the view from figure 1). But without the option of transferring the orientation from another figure, it doesn't seem possible. It also seems to be similar in animated sequences. I don't know how I could transfer a certain orientation from one sequence to another sequence. Can anyone help? Best regardsRamon Bohne(Siemens Energy)

Hi I have recently installed Creo 11 and been able to make tables in MBD.  I would like to be able to see these tables and other annotations in Creo View Express  I export the Creo model with the tables and other annotations to pvz format and expect to see the tables but they aren't there.  I can see dimensions with GD&T callouts so I am assuming my recipe file (attached) is ok.  I did some digging and found that maybe I need the Creo View adaptor 11.1.0.0?  Do I even need the Creo View adaptor if I am manually creating the PVZ file using Save As from Creo 11? Support_for_Table_Annotations_for_Creo_Parametric  I thought maybe my version of Creo View Express was the issue so I went to the Creo View Express download page here and even though it says Creo 11.1. it downloads 11.0.0.  I installed that and loaded my pvz file and still no tables being displayed. I used a recipe file as attached.  I had to change the rcp exte
