Export Creo File without model tree history

Hi all,

 

Is there a way to save a Creo file without the model tree history?

 

I need to send a large assembly in Creo format to a client, but I don't want him to have access to the parametrization.

 

I know I can save as a step or igs and then convert to creo again, but I'm wondering if there is a more direct way to do this.

 

Thanks

Depending on the end goal... a NEUTRAL File -- disabling the Parameters and Annotations works pretty well also..

Shrinkwrap.

FILE -SAVE AS - SHRINKWRAP.

You'll need to experiment with the settings.

      I have tried both options, neutral file and shrinkwrap.

       

      Shrinkwrap doesn't work for me because it merges all parts and asm into one solid.

      I need my client to have access to all parts and asm separately.

       

      I'm still battling with neutral file, I think it can do the job, the problem is when I open the neutral asm, it prompts a windows to import each part and I have hundreds. I'm trying to get through this.

       

      Thanks!

      Ok, I just have to unselect the option "Customize layers" when importing:
