how to hide all coordinate systems in an assembly

MichaelPiotto_0-1746749445910.png

I swear this was working before, but there is no way to turn off all the coordinate systems of each part? going into each file is not really an option, there are 100+ models in my assembly and sub-assemblies.

Hi,

what does happen when you hide following layers?

Creo for me has been reaaaaly glitchy lately. As far as I know I think the layer tree is organized by order not type of feature, so the CSYS's still visible are in the subassemblies(you know more than me), here is the layer tree of one of the subassy:

most of the parts are imported step files so maybe that is the problem? but each part exists and has a separate file so I don't know.  

Hi,

you have to accept that each model must meet the specified rules. This means that layers in every model must be properly defined.

 

Open part containing imported step geometry and check its layers. Are they properly defined? If they aren't then you need to fix it.

 

Q: How do you create part containing imported step geometry?

how do i properly define a layer, I've tried making layers for the subassemblies, but I get an error: "Rules cannot be evaluated for submodels of a Layer model...". the only way for it to work if I make individual  layer in each model that contains what I want, 
should I have imported the step in a different way?, is there automatic way to create layers for each model?

Hi,

please uload some STEP file representing an assembly to enable me to to test layer creation.

You should have a start part and start assembly with the layers you want with rules defined.  Then, when importing a step file, select the checkbox for use templates


There is always more to learn in Creo.

If your parts/subassemblies aren't done using a start part/assy that is consistent with layers standard, you won't be able to do it with layers unless you fix all the parts/assy's. When you import files, you can set up creo to use a start part/template.

Your other option is to just turn off the coordinate systems in the environment.
