Create Pvi file of Pvz file

[qumar]

Hi,

     I have .pvz file of a machine which consists assembly of all of its part. i have to display the animation of assembling and disassembling of its part. in order to do that i need .pvi file which is basically sequence URL as per my knowledge, correct me if i am wrong. How can i create its corresponding .pvi files ?

i have renamed the .pvz file to .zip file then i extracted it,I get .pva files,still didn't get any .pvi file.

Regards,

Hi Qadir umar​,

Does the .pvz files contains the animation sequence. If yes, you can select the sequence without actually uploading the .pvz file.

If the sequence is not included; you will need separate .pvi file.

As per my understanding; Creo Team can help you if you need details on How to create the .pvi file.

The pvz file is merely a zip file of the visualization and animation.  If you make a copy of it and change the name to .zip then extract the contents of the zip file, you will see a .pvi file.  Load this file into your Resource inside Studio.  Then drag to the button or whatever you are going to use to run the animation.

Technically, you are supposed to use Creo Illustrate application for creating a sequence file (i.e., pvi from pvz file). As a simple example, you can refer - Creating a simple animation sequence (help center article)
