How to edit symbols in Creo Parametric

[ktenhaken]

I would like to edit my weld symbols in Creo.  I don't know anything about this but from the brief research I have done have found where to do this.  I just don't know how or if there is a way better than what I am doing.  I go to the Symbol Gallery and retrieve my symbol to edit.  Below is a screenshot of what I get when trying to edit. It is a complete mess and I can't click what I want unless I move other things out of the way.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Probably not.

A sketch is an interactive program that does not have any model geometry. It isn't until it is 'compiled' from the sketch into datum curves/model edges that it becomes reachable from the DXF export functions.

Likely the best solution may be to create a part within your assembly. Make your sketch in that part, in the context of the assembly. You can then open just that part and save that part as a DXF. Not sure it saves you any steps but if your assembly is large, making a drawing with the assembly could be time consuming.

It the assembly is large, a simplified rep that eliminated all the components would leave the datum curve displayed.

But now someone will point out they don't have a license that allows them to make a simplified rep as if I personally prevented them from getting said license and am purposely withholding an answer that would work without it. Sigh.
