How can I see the total quantity of a component in Creo view?

Is it possible to transform and rotate elastic objects(pipes, harness etc., which possess elastic behavior) using CreoView MCAD. They behave like rigid objects when they are transformed and rotated. Can someone please help me by letting know if this is possible using CreoView MCAD or can we split the elastic part into smaller sub parts and then transform/rotate them?

I have tried many different export options trying to keep my grouping hierarchy in Creo Illustrate. But anytime I import an FBX file, all objects are just pulled into the root object and groupings are lost. This is not the case with some other formats like DAE, but the file size is to large for the pipeline I am involved in.  I have prepared the FBX files in both Maya and Blender with the same results.  Does anyone know a process to keep the hierarchy that I might have missed? Looking to save a lot of rework by finding a solution.  (Sorry if this is in the wrong area, not exactly sure where to put a Creo Illustrate question, a mod can feel free to move or message me where to remake the post if needed)

Odd problem but here you go. I have an assembly drawing. We publish using default HPGL/2 format. Everything in Creo View 9.1 looks fine except 1 sheet seems to have drawing extents that are off. In Creo Parametric 9 its fine. All other sheets are fine, D Size and when you view or Print to PDF, sheet 2 appears scaled down and not maximized to the paper size. Very odd.    When I've seen this in the past, its been due to a piece of geometry or sketched entity outside the field of the drawing border except we cannot find anything. Any other reason for this behavior? The drawing bounded boxes also appear inside the field of the drawing too.  Sheet 1 above normal. Sheet 2 below not normal  

We have P&IDs drawn as dwg files.  Each object on P&ID is a block with attributes and corresponds to a part in Windchill.  Our users view the dwgs in Creo View.I want to be able to select on a block in CV and have the user see the attributes and go to the website embedded as one of those attributes.  Right now, when I click on a block in CV, it doesn't select the block.  It selects the individual lines of the block and I can't see the block attributes anywhere. Does anyone have any ideas to make this work or what could be used to provide "smart schematics" to the users?  It should remain dwg based. thanks      

Hello Community, Using Creo View, I'm trying to insert a stamp into a model, specifically into a PVZ file, but I'm having trouble. The stamp tool button is always grayed out and can't seem to be enabled, see screenshot below. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it, so I can insert a stamp, as explained in the support article here: To Insert Stamp AnnotationsOn the Markup tab, in the Annotations group, click Stamp. The stamps gallery opens.In the stamps gallery, click the stamp you want to insert and point to the model view.Click where you want to place the stamp. The stamp appears in the foreground and the pointer reverts to a selection pointer. In the upper data panel View Content list, a corresponding Stamp entry appears.To move or resize the stamp in figure window, select it to display its anchor points and then perform the following actions:Move - Drag the anchor point shown in the center o

In these days, We are making a custom viewer using Creo View WebGL ToolkitCustomer want to see 3D model using Shaded with Edges render mode.Is it possible to set Shaded with Edges render mode using Creo View WebGL Toolkit?https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS338147There is no solution for this.Do we have a plan to make it?

I want to view a model as a wire frame with hidden lines in Creo View Express, but with black lines rather than the kaleidoscope of colours the model is in when I open it in Creo View Express. I've tried following the instructions on this help page:https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/view/r9.0/en/index.html#page/creo_view/visualization/shared/To_Edit_Color.html#wwID0ECMGS I've selected everything in the model .A Model Parts tab appears on the ribbon, but there's no Color tool on the toolbar. The model I'm opening comes as an edz file.

Is there a way to pan my view of the model left/right/up/down using the keyboard in Creo View Express? Is there a way to rotate using the keyboard? I've found out how to zoom using the keyboard (Ctrl + for zoom in, Ctrl - for zoom out) but panning and rotating escapes me.

Creo Schematics 10 and 11 crashes when trying to export a pdf of the design sheets. We are able to reproduce this in an empty design with two sheets. We have narrowed it down to the formats that we have been using for years. Creo Schematics 4.0 does not have this problem exporting with our current designs and the attached test design. The Event Viewer in Microsoft shows Faulting module name: DL180PDFL.dll, version: 18.0.4.3, time stamp: 0x62a673dd.  Note, that PTC start template that ships with the tool does not have this issue so please test with the attached files. We are unable to update until this issue gets resolved.  I am concern that this will impact other customers that have custom design templates (formats).

In Creo Parametric, it is possible to select the "seed and boundary" surfaces of any given model. My stakeholders are asking me to color in great detail for the media we create in Creo illustrate and it is extremely tedious because one must select all the faces individually. Coloring in Creo parametric is more ideal and I cannot control engineering who are giving me models with nonsensical colors. It is up to my team to color the model and we need the function in creo illustrate to select surfaces more quickly based on seed and boundary or like Maya where you can just glide your cursor over the surface to color them. Anything would be better than what is currently available to color at the face level in creo illustrate.

when I try to create a flat harness, with a multitude of wires stuck together, it places the wires in relation to the z axis. therefore, I cannot move my threads so that I can see them all in profile.How to make the flat position like image 2, I can move my segments in this direction

Hi Guys,Can we add the "IP Address" in .ini format, which we used for the Creo View Watermark? Regards,Aj

Is there a way to assign markups to individual viewstates so that when you are switching between them the markups don't follow?

It is very hard to get interest in the markup in Creo Veiw when it is much easier to draw on a printed paper the Engineering systems needed.  For example surface finish, Weld Symbols, Diameter Symbol... etc and so on.  It is 2022... this is a bit embarrassing to try to get the business to adopt markup when the tool is half way designed.

Can a Design Template be changed from Landscape to Portrait format?

I want to use the Watermark Editor to display the object number, name, revision and status, but I don't know how to set it up.----------------------------------Translated the Subject from Japanese to English using google translate Subject - Watermark Editorで属性を表示したい-By Community Moderation Team.----------------------------------

Choosing User Defined for this sub assembly in this simplified rep automatically unchecks the part.  Checking the box sets it back to Master Rep.  How do I get a user defined representation to be allowed to display for this subassembly?   in creo in creo in pvz in pvz

In reguards to https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS210906.   I have been playing with this and discovered these attributes about two years ago and have found it very valuable.  One thing that happened though is I rolled a dash number of an install , It was pretty much additions but it rolled about half of the Part ID's within the -002 part and now i need to redo all my tracking markers / context ID's  Why wouldn't it have kept everything that didn't change with the same numbers and add the new ones. 

Tried placing Decals on models...they must be invisible?  Went thru the prompts, searched in the HELP section, did the Mapping Shape and wore my tin-foil hat for a bit...???!!!   It's on a flat surface and the model is brought in as a STEP file?   Screenshots show the application of the decal...invisible.  

Hi all, when processing a save as of a creo parametric assembly in whindchill, I would like to include the illustration work.Unfortunately creo illustrate file is not embedded. what is your workarround whith for this use case? Mine is to save in local the c3di, break the link to the source, reconnect windchill and reconnect to the new published PVZ...

I was wondering if the Creo View BOM read in parameters from creo parametric (version 10) assemblies and part files, so that the names, item descriptions e.t.c would match. As well as that I was wondering whether the BOM lists matched in terms of the ordering of items/parts, so that the parts appear in the same order in both Creo View BOM and Creo Parametric BOM.

I'm trying to roll Creo View out to some pople within our company but don't want to without getting a few things ironed out. One being the publisher. Why does every job with the publisher fail! Has anyone got a way around this? Number 2 see attached, CYS and planes show up when opening Creo View out of both Windchill and ThingWorx. Anyone have a solution for this?
