Adding labels to cables

[glászló]

Hi,

I've made a custom cable, and I've added a label to, it should show the part number of the cable, however if I route the cable the label is not there, it doesn't appear at all. What should I do?

Regards,

Laszlo

Firstly you will need to upgrade to Creo Schematics 3.0 M020

In the catalog explorer open the cable shape, select the cable decoration, and add the label.

Your label will then appear when you place the cable and will move with the cable decoration

See the attached movie

thanks, Jim

Dear Jim,

How can I get the update? Currently I have the M010 version. After updating Is it possible to add the label to the cable itself (see on photo) not to the decoration?

Thanks,

Laszlo

You can download M020 from the software update page https://support.ptc.com/appserver/common/login/ssl/login.jsp?dest=%2Fappserver%2Fcs%2Fsoftware_update%2Fswupdate.jsp&msg…

The label has to be attached to the decoration

thanks
