We are trying to get LGR to work in Creo 2 Parameteric M050 and M090 tied to PDMLink 10.1 M040. We have followed the documentation provided by the local PTC rep who we have worked with for many years. We can it it to work with the files saved locally but not tied to PDMLink.
I am able to spin and zoom on the thumbnail in PDMLink, but when we open a file using LGR in Creo, we get outlined boxes representing the parts and subassemblies.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi Folks. Ive been struggling for a while to try and create a textured powder coat finish (in WF5.0 with ARX).
Cant seem to get close to it.
Any tips on creating this type of material?
or
Is there a standard material / texture that could be used, that would allow me to just change the RGB for colour variations?
Image attached to show you what Im trying to acheive - the colour doesnt matter at this point - Im just trying to achieve the textured look.
Thanks in advance

We've been using Creo View 2.0 M010 in connection with Windchill PDMLink 10.0 M030 without issue for over a year. We've had it installed in a non-default path (D:\apps\PTC\Creo 2.0\View) as we typically keep all our CAD software and related apps isolated to that D:\apps directory. In preparation for moving from Wildfire 4 to Creo 2 Parametric M090 next month, we thought we'd go to the latest M-code of Creo View 2.0 - M040. With that all Creo 2.0 related software is installed at D:\apps\PTC\Creo 2.0 - view continues to be in a "View" folder in that location and Creo Parametric 2.0 M090 is in the "Common Files", "Parametric" etc. Problem is, with Creo View 2.0 M040 installed in that location, it no longer works with Windchill PDMLink. The viewable window on the information page for an object is black and can't be clicked on to launch View. If I uninstall Creo View 2.0 M040 and let it install to the default C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 2.0\View folder, it works fine with Windchill. Going back and forth with this (uninstall, reinstall - alternating the paths) there is a clear correllation - default install path, it works...our preferred install path, it does not work. I tested it with Creo View 3.0 M010 and it behaves the same as 2.0 M040 - works with Windchill if installed to the default "C:\Program Files\ . . ." path, doesn't work with Windchill if installed to our preferred "D:\apps\. . .". Has anyone else seen this type of behavior? Thoughts on why it worked fine with Creo View 2.0 M010, but M040 and after it does not? In all cases, Creo View runs fine if manually started from the installation. Checking the registry, the install path is getting noted properly when installed in either location.

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'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,

Hi Everyone,
I'm having problems with some of our stations (mostly laptops with onboard intel graphics) which are working with Creo View 2.0. The program is able to open and view models and drawings but when the user selects print the image prints as a solid black page. This is repeatable accross all printers and even print to PDF converters. Has anyone seen this before and is there a known fix?
Thanks
Dave
Hi All,
I'm using WF3 and product view lite.
I have some model were the simplified rep are shown in product view in the model column.
I've recently tried to export newer model and I can't see any simplified rep.
I must forgot to tick a box somewhere.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, everyone.
I would like to know if it is possible to change the colours of the parts in an assembly in Creo View Express.
I have some problems with visualization of the plastic injection mould in Creo View Express 2.0.
The plates that were grey in Creo Parametric become black in Creo View Express. And some of them are represented in a wireframe mode.
So it's difficult to distinguish one part from another.
You can see what I mean in the pictures below.
Thanks in advance.
Vladimir.
Has anyone had success opening a .pvz file using the CREO View mobile app on an iPad?
The .pvz file I am testing with is 25MB and is located on BOX.com (cloud-based storage).
I get the iPad equivalet to an hourglass in the CREO View mobile app.
Thanks.

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.

Does anyone know how the Preset Explode works in Creo View Express?
Is it supposed to be able to show user defined exploded views from Creo or Pro\E that you define in the View Manager?
Will this work for Native Creo files (*.asm)?
Will ths work for Creo View formats (*.ed, *.edz, *.pvs, *.pvz)?
