Section cutting plane line font is different between two like drawings but drawing configs appear to be the same.

I couldn't find a better area to ask this: I have two drawings with nearly the exact same part detailed. One has a section cutting plane line font as a dense phantom line. The other has a very wide spread phantom line font that, in my opinion, does not look good on the print. I can't find any discrepancies between the two drawing configs so I'm not sure why this has changed between the two drawings. I don't think it's the size of one of the parts as the part with the preferred cutting plane line font - its casting drawing has the bad looking cutting plane line font and obviously the casting is the same size...besides stock. I don't think the PTC defaults have changed in the time it took me to finish one drawing and create the other either as, again, I don't see any differences in the drawing configs. In the Creo drawing the cutting planes look alike but as soon as I plot them on PDF or even print them directly from Creo the one changes to the spaced out phantom font. Any ideas???

Can I view an animation created in Creo parametric in Creo View Express.

 

I can see there is a some playbeck buttons in Creo View Express but I don't know what files I need to export from Parametric to be able to view animation in View Express.

Watermarks

Is there a resource or anything that goes into detail about watermarks for Creo View files? Searching the Tech Support files really doesn't cover the basics. The lone PDF I found covered watermarks in two half-filled pages that provide no help at all. I'm just looking for something to help me stumble through creation and implementation less than I currently am. Trial-and-error just isn't cutting it.

Creo View Drawing Compare

Creo View Drawing Compare.. seems like we took something that should be easy and made it very hard. Why can't I find the drawing I want to compare two seperate revisions or iterations of that I find on the details page with the history tab, select the two objects and choose open in CREO VIEW. Then In Creo View I should be able to do something as easy as select the two and pick a compare action.

 

What is the deal with adding to clipboard "and you cannot add them both from the history tab, it claims it adds them but it dosn't". You have to go to each of the objects detail page in order to have the drawings show up on the clip board. Now you have to go to the clipboard and select both objects and choose to open in Creo view.

 

Once you get the objects in Creo.. not very intuitive regarding the compare option or getting the overlay of the two drawings....

Multiple-cut section views in drawings

January 31, 2014, 2:05 pm

I'm not entirely sure what to accurately call these, so I haven't had much luck in finding help creating such. At the moment, I'm working to take 2D AutoCAD drawings and turning them into 3D Creo Parametric 2.0 models as well as to recreate the drawings in Creo. In particular, I'm floundering on how to make more complex section views display in my drawings.

 

Attached is a simplified ref of the original AutoCAD views I'm trying to replicate. I can cut it like the model via an actual extrude but I can't figure out how to get a view looking flat at both cut faces at once. I've also tried to create a xsec with two datum planes in the model itself to then put on the drawing as a 3D cross section, but at that point the view doesn't display the two cutting planes as flat, instead displaying the angled side as coming out of the page and as such a portion of the outer surface is displayed and any attempt to dimension on the view is rendered skewed and worthless.

 

As an additional little question, where's the option to exclude a part from showing as cut in a cross section of an assembly drawing? With cutting a cylinder I'd like to leave the piston rod fully displayed but cut through all other components.

 

Any pointers into the right direction for what I'm overlooking would be much appreciated.

Hi All

 

I am experiencing an issue with Creo View 1.0 Lite and hope you can help me find a solution.

 

When I click on a link to open a file from Windchill, the Internet Explorer starts Creo Viewer as expected.

But the Creo Viewer does not show the pdf-file.

The pdf-file is opened by Adobe Reader while Creo Viewer presents me with the error-message:

"Failed to load the file. Check the Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader Installation."

 

How do I configure Creo Viewer to show the pdf and not try to use Adobe Reader?

Creo Illustrate Animation Issues

December 9, 2016, 3:33 pm

Hello,

 

Is anyone having issues with model components randomly relocating themselves during animation playback?  This issue is driving me nuts!  I start with a mechanical assembly explode, to display all assembly components.  Then, I fade out all parts except for the initial part.  Process step by process step, I fade in components and rotate, annotate, inset the view on key features, flash, bring in arrows, bring in tools, etc. to create the assembly sequence.  After a couple hours of work, during animation playback, random components will relocate and reorient from its original placement in the animation to some other odd location and orientation in the display view.  This ruins the 2 hours of work to create the animation, because you try to place the component where it's supposed to be, but when you play the animation the component will relocate again to an even more odd location and orientation.  Are there any other Creo Illustrate users that have had this experience?

Model color schemes

Hello all,

is there any way (or workaround) to define various color schemes for a part or assembly model?

For example, when we are working on an assembly, we use different colors to distinguish the different components. Also, at the same time and when we have to make some rendered representations, we have to define some other colors in order to simulate reality as close as possible.

 

Any ideas? How can someone switch from one color scheme to the other?

 

Thanks in advance.

Creo View Enhancement Requests

Hi all,

 

I've a few enhancement ideas for Creo View, Here I'm listing below.

 

1 Creo View can't Measure the Radius/Diameters of Rounds. [Attaching an PPT]

2 Should be able to read the Cross-sections from Creo Parametric Files.

3 Should be able to read the Simplified Representations / Combined Views from Creo Parametric files.

4 Should be able to read the Views list from Creo Parametric Models.

 

These are the minimum requirements any Customer looks for.

 

Hope PTC implements the same.

 

Regards,

Niranjan V

Creo View 3 doesn't load on a particular computer for a single user

Hi all,

 

I will be more precise. We have many computers that run Creo Elements 5 M250 and Creo View 3. On a single computer and for a single user it fails to start. If launched as a standalone program from start, programs, etc, it only runs for 1-3 seconds before crashing. It can only be monitored shortly from the task manager, as nothing actually appears. If launched as a plugin of IE or Chrome, I only get a white empty page without anything in it.

 

The weird thing is that on the same computer, if we logged in as different users, the program works fine. At the same time, if the user logs in on another computer the program works as well.

 

Unfortunaltely, I have been autorizhed to rebuild his profile on his machine, which I think could help us, so I would like to know if someone has any idea of what I could do to help the user.

 

I have already unistalled and installed "everything", creo view, creo elements, java, desktop integration, etc. but with no results. The issue is not related to any particular drawing.

 

Thank you very much in advance for your help.
