Here are the file types you are allowed to place. It looks like it should accept Creo files

Yes I can open the files but then they are empty. Maybe des Version of the Creo files are not compatibel with Isodraw 7.3 .

I can open Creo files but after opening they have no modell and no  structure. They are totally empty.

Can you save out of creo as a step, iges, or jt and then import it into isodraw? Which version of IsoDraw are you using, the latest is 7.4.2.0.  Maybe there is a compatibility issue with new creo and older Isodraw release.

I will try to install Isodraw 7.4. Maybe then it is possible to open Creo files directly.  In the past I get step files, and had no problems. Since I get step files in combination with the  use of the Siemens Teamcenter I have the problem that all components get the ID from the Siemens Teamcenter and its really difficult to identify the components with their ordernumber. 

I hope Isodraw 7.4 will solve my problem

You may also have some luck if you save your assembly as Creo View (*.pvz). This will probably preserve more of your data than a neutral export format like STEP.
