Layers in Creo Parametric

[dholt]

When I go to the layers window, there's already a whole bunch of layers there. So many that finding layers I've created is somewhat tedious - which seems to defeat the purpose of having layers...

... at least as far as I understand them. I haven't seen any filter options that help.

I've been looking for more info/tutorials but no luck.

Am I missing something or that's just the way it is?

Thanks,

Dan Holt

As the first source of information, I would suggest opening the Creo Help Center and navigating to Creo Parametric > Fundamentals > Working with the Model > Layers. This will give you all the details on the capabilities and features of Creo layers.

Second place to go is the PTC Learning Exchange. There is a great overview video titled "Utilizing Layers in Part Models".

If time permits, I will try to provide a quick demonstration of Creo Layers in tonight's ROBOTalk session.

Thanks, Scott. The video was most helpful. If they're targeted towards datums, features, etc. I see why there are so many out-of-the-box.
