I guess I should have expressed my work around. Being that I was able to open step file directly into its own assembly. I could then save that assembly as a now creo assembly, and do this for each of the assemblies I wanted to import. Then go back and just build the assembly from all of the now creo assemblies. Slightly more time consuming than I wanted but end result was all the same.
I will never understand PTC's rational in removing functionality, well not fully removing it, you can still import multiple stl files (almost useless), emn (ok usable), and I have never even heard of a POLTXT file (the web says it is a macromedia flash file, which does not sound useful).
Hi Ron,
We had the same experience earlier this year, using CP 2, build M100. Did not open a call with PTC, since we found the work-around also.
Regarding the question regarding how to handle multiple imports into a single file - - I have not tried it, but wonder if doing a Windows drag/drop of the file(s) into the Creo assembly window would work? (It worked for a single import operation.)
Thanks for bringing this up.
