How to make lines show up thinner when exporting drawing as a PDF in a Net Based Creo Parametric?

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I am using a Net Based Creo Parametric 2.0. When I export an engineering drawing to a PDF file, the resulting lines are too thick, and obscure some of the fine details. I have attempted to follow what others have written, which have to do with including pentable files in the working directory and/or modifying the config.pro file, and checking the "Use Pentable" box in the export dialog box. However, (1) there is no pentable.pnt file in my working directory, and when I create one (opening a notepad text file, copying some suggested block of code like the one below into it:

 

pen 1 thickness 0.003 in

pen 2 thickness 0.005 in

etc.

 

 

and finally saving it as a .pnt file), I can't reopen the resulting .pnt file; I get an error that says "can't open because file is corrupt." (2) I have tried to copy certain blocks of code into the config file but to no avail.

 

If someone would be so kind, what I seek is a clear, step-by-step explanation of everything I need to do to get a PDF with thin black lines from a drawing, including any blocks of code if necessary, the proper way to create any files, what folders to put them in, etc.

 

Basically a "getting thinner lines for dummies"

 

Hope someone can help. Thanks.

I have used a Creo View model to prepare workshop instructions for assembly. Now that the original Creo model has been updated to next version (New parts added), how do I update my Creo view model? Is there any way to update existing view model OR I have no choice but to again create a full new Creo view assembly?

Thanks in advance for your answers

Features randomly changing color in Creo 2.0

One of the users at work just recently experienced a strange occurance with a model he has been working on over the past couple of days.  He opened the model he was working on, and noticed that certain features have changed color.  See below:

I've personally never seen anything like it.  Any idea as to what could've caused this?  We're running Creo 2.0 M070. 

Creo view won't display assembly.

We are running Windchill 10.0. I have one pc that can login okay, can find a part and when he selects the assembly he can select open in Creo View 2.0 and the viewer opens, but never displays the part. I have tried three different browsers, two different users on the computer and two different users on Windchill, so the problem appears to be the computer. I have checked Java version and that is okay, not sure what is going on.

Icons next to model tree right click actions, Creo 2.0

I don't know what to call this thus the horrible title.  When I right click on a part in an assembly I get a bunch of actions listed out.

 

I was watching a video on PTCU where the instructor had icons next to his actions and was wondering if this is a config setting, etc.  Anyone know?

CreoView on iPad?

It was wonderful to see the live demo of the Creo View for iPad app at PlanetPTC in June of this year.  There was a lot of excitement and applause during that demo.  However, we are almost at the end of this year and there ha been no update on the progress of this application.  Meanwhile, many other companies are releasing iOS apps for CAD creation, viewing and interrogation.  AutoCAD WS, Inventor Publisher Mobile, Design Review mobile, Turbo Viewer, vueCAD, iRhino 3D, TurboViewer Pro, iXVL View...  In fact, 30 apps for the iPad show up when you search "CAD Viewer."  So where is PTC?  I kills me to see them missing the boat again.  If you need help testing, please ask the user community!  If you are waiting for Apple to review the app, at least let us know.  No new is not good news in this case!

Creo View printing black page

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

Multiple-cut section views in drawings

$

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.

Creo Wildfire 5.0 Mouse Zoom Inverted Problem

$

Hello All,

 

First time throwing a discussion out here. So I just came up with a 'what I think' is a minor nousence. With using two different CAD programs at the moment I found that these CAD softwares will have certain characteristics or ways of doing things inside that particular CAD program. For instance I'm currently using both SolidWorks 2014 and Creo Wildfire 5.0 and between the two interfaces, especially with zooming with your mouse wheel, its different for both of these CAD softwares. SolidWorks seems to be what I've been used to overall and Creo the opposite. So to be more clear, when you roll the mouse wheel forward it would zoom in onto your drawing and when you roll backwards you zoom out. Creo is shown inverted zooming when using the mouse wheel zoom feature. Is there a way you can change this from being inverted within Creo Wildfire 5.0 settings?

 

Thanks,

Our drawings have as a standard drawing view boundary type set to "circle". See below.

Our old drawings are like below. Does anyone know how we can make the circle display like this in phantom line style?

apply 3d section to shaded view in drawings

I want to utilize an offset section that I created within my assembly but when I go to apply it within my drawing the option is greyed out. This seems like I'm missing something obvious here, is this a limitation of Creo? Is it because it's a 3d view and not a planar view or is it because i am using a shaded view? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
