Hi,

 

We want to insert one supplier drawing to our standard drawing template. Supplier provided creo drawing with its dependent model and format (.frm), So i want to know, how we can import complete drawing sheet with its dependent model and format to our standard template.

 

Regards,

Prashant Pandarkar

I can't think of a way to do it when you include the requirement to keep their format. That would seem to be the problem.

Too make it look the same, I would import the model from the other drawing but I would use an export/import function such as DXF to bring the format information over.

If "Overlay" is still in the Drawing module in versions higher than Creo 2, try that. I am not sure how much functionality you are looking for but this might be a good compromise.

We tried with overlay command but with this it is not possible to edit or modify drawing view as per owning CAD.

Your question is ambiguous.

 

Do you want to have your own drawing, with your own format, displaying your supplier's completed drawing on your sheet?

 

Perhaps you could make a pdf or dxf of your supplier's drawing and import that into your own drawing sheet.

 

Or perhaps you could call out your supplier's drawing in your BOM instead?
