Hi,

I guess this is current Creo functionality. Please ask PTC Support to verify this idea.

Hello AS_10538336,

As Martin mentioned, the behavior you described is the intended behavior with Creo Parametric Cables / Wires.

Cables / Wires display are cosmetic surface representation and not solid features.
