Creo 4.0 Reference Viewer - Paths tab is there.

Creo 4.0 Reference Viewer - Paths tab is there.

I haven't used the Reference Viewer for some time but I am trying to track down a circular reference. I have watched several videos that go through the process and all have a "Paths" tab in the Reference Viewer which I do not have. Did something change in Creo 4.0 or earlier that got rid of the Paths tab?

I usually use the .crc text file that creo generates in the working directory. So in the one below, the problem is in the middle segment "extrude_1, id=470)". It's always the middle one but you can sometimes solve the problem by correcting assembly constraints.

 

1 CIRCULAR REFERENCE LOOPS FOUND

LOOP # 1

Depth of loop is 3

Feature number 21 (COMPONENT, id = 350)
in model 20083265 refers to:

 

Feature number 5 (EXTRUDE_1, id = 470)
in model 20083265-WELD1 refers to:

 

Feature number 21 (COMPONENT, id = 350)
in model 20083265 - circle closed.

Hi,

 

I have to revive this thread, beacause I have exactly the same problem.

In almost every video I see there is a "Path"-Tab inside the reference-viewer, but it doesn't exist in my Creo.

 

Is there a config-pro-option to activate it ? Or how can it be displayed ?

 

 

In the creo-Help it says:

 

The Reference Viewer dialog box opens.
2. Click the Paths tab and then click Find Circular Paths. The model is regenerated and the existing circular paths are listed.

 

Thanks,

Maik

Hi Maik,

 

The Paths Tab is only available with AAX (Advanced Assembly Extension):

Hi Trebla,

 

thanks for helping me...

Can you tell me, where I can find the licence-list you posted ?

 

Thanks,

Maik

Hi Maik,

I downloaded from PTC web page in 2016, so I don't remember exactly where it was. 😅

I think this is the article.
