Suppressing parts/components in an assembly file using ProProgram in Creo 2.0

[srajput]

I use ProProgram to suppress features like hole, extrusion, pattern, etc in a part file.

I want to do the same in assembly file but it does not allow me to edit design in assembly file.

The only difference is that I want to suppress a complete component (say Nut in a Screwjack assembly) in that assembly file using either of Relations or ProPragram.

I go to the Model Intent group and select Program from the dropdown. A small dialogue box pops up with various options, I use the Edit Design option to edit the Program in a notepad. But in assembly file this option is not working, no notepad pops out for editing.

Hi,

I think that your license does not contain ASSEMBLY module. This module enables user to use Pro/PROGRAM in Assembly mode.

How can I check if the ASSEMBLY module is included in my license or not?

And can you provide me a link to something that tells about all the available modules with Creo 2.0 and what all will I be getting with them.

Thanks for sucj a quick response Martin!

Hi,

File > Help > System Information ... Configured Option Modules section contains list of license modules.

I found this

And as you mentioned earlier ASSEMBLY module is missing.

How do I include it in my license now? Do I need to reinstall the whole software?

I looked into File>Options>Licensing

There is an button for options and this is what I got there:

We use floating licenses here, I see some "Advanced_Assembly_SET*" in the list of licenses here.

Do I have to include this one to make things right?

Hi,

I think that Advanced_Assembly_SET* contains ASSEMBLY module. Unfortunatelly an asterisk at the end of module name means, that this set cannot be attached to running Creo session. Ask your IT/CAD administrator to include Advanced_Assembly_SET into Creo startup command.
