One way is rewrite "New" dialog and his behavior using Creo Pro/Toolkit API.

Take a look at ProMdlStartAction() at

    @YaroslavSin Do I need Creo UI Editor. Is Creo UI Editor included with Creo Toolkit ? Could you give me some more technical information. It will be happy if you support it with images.

    Creo UI editor can't be used for customisation standard Creo user interface. The purpose of Creo UI Editor is to help to develop a resource GUI files for auxiliary applications wrote using Creo API, for example Toolkit. So, yes, this editor is part of toolkit.

    If you not familiar with Toolkit, then this task not easy.

      Hello,

       

      As Remy mentioned, you will need the Pro or Object Toolkit APIs to create this which adds cost and time.

       

      My company has developed something very similar Model Builder already that may be similar to what you're looking for. It creates a PRT/ASM/DRW based off certain attributes, which are defined and standardized by administrators in our database. You can then define a name formula which will name it according to the values of certain parameters also defined by an administrator.

      Let me know if that is close to what you're looking for!

       

      Cheers,
