Why does my note box change size?!

We are having problems with notes. Shocker...

 

When we insert a note and move the text to the opposite side, (ie make the leader an acute angle) The size of the text box will shrink every time.

 

No matter how many times I resize the box and looks like its supposed to, I can close the drawing and come back to the box shrunk, and text that was on 2 lines is now on 3 or more...

 

Below is a note shown on 3 lines how its supposed to be. And then I can save it, erase not displayed, and then it turns back into the 4 line incorrect one below. Everytime...

312-12 Receptacle Modeling

Community,

 

Below and attached are images of the 312-12 Receptacle.  I went to the Alcoa web site, and the STEP file they have for downloading is not the correct geometry.  I contacted Alcoa, and they stated that was the only CAD file for downloading.  Does anyone have this in 3D that can be imported into Creo and willing to share?  Thanks in advance.

Creo 2-M110 : Drill angle

Hello all users

With our Creo version, when we use the hole function, the drill angle is 118° by defult. I think the standard for all the customer tools is 120°. Is it possible to implement the 120° by default in the hole function ?

I have find this macro in the net :

mapkey $F7;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProCmdHole`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Select `main_dlg_cur``maindashlnst0.ui_simp_hole_ty_rg`1`CustSimp`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `main_dlg_cur``chkbn.std_hle_layout.0`1;\

mapkey(continued) ~ FocusOut `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_holediam_mip_omnu`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Input `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu``1`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Input `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu``12`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Input `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu``120`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Update `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu``120`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ FocusOut `std_hle_layout.0.0``PH.hle_drillangle_mip_omnu`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `main_dlg_cur``chkbn.std_hle_layout.0`0;

 

But this solution is very basic. For each hole i do, i must launch this macro.

Hi All,

 

I wanted to configure .dtl files as per format of the drawing.

 

For example: I have A1 Format has to follow a1.dtl file.

                              A0 Format has to follow a2.dtl file.

 

Which config file to be changed?

 

Any suggestions will be very helpful.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Is it allowed to use the Creo visualization licenses to convert by user ?

I wonder if you can use these Creo visualization licenses to convert from prt to step just on the fly when you need it. This is after all visualization. In the license agreement (common for a lot of PTC products) I do not read any thing about this. Can anyone shine a light on this please ?

Hi

using CREO 2 :

how to create a layer with a specific rule for Datum Axis defined as Reference ?

Just to separate this type of Reference Axis to other "regular" axis .

For Plane there is the rule that is

Look for =feature

Look by = feature

Rule = Type

Value = Reference feature

 

Many thanks in advance

Is it possible to create a Wireframe drawing in Creo Illustrate 3.0? Preferably vector art, so it will be editable. Everything I try produces drawings without the "hidden" lines that make up a wireframe drawing.

 

Any ideas will be appreciated!

Weight Value in Repeat Region - Assembly Drawing

June 8, 2016, 9:42 am
$

I am looking for advice on displaying weight for each family table instance on my assembly drawing. This weight may be used as a general estimate for product shipping.

 

My current setup,

I have a relation: weight=mp_mass(quotequote) in the assembly model and all part models.

I put the relation created parameter 'weight' into the family table.

I have had issues with the calculations in the family table. It can require multiple regenerations and family table verifications. In some cases requiring opening and manually regenerating each family table instance. For these reasons, I am exploring other options.

I display the 'weight' parameter in my repeat region table using the report symbol &fam.inst.param.value and filter &fam.inst.param.value == 'weight'

 

I have read several threads about using Creo's built-in mass parameter (pro_mp_mass) instead of the old method mp_mass(quotequote). I have also read tips that a relation created real number parameter should not be used in the family table.

 

My current experiment,

I have tried the relation weight=pro_mp_mass in both the assembly and part models.

I can recall the parameter within a repeat region table for PART drawings. No problem.

I use the report symbol &mbr.(user defined)weight and the units &mbr.ptc_units(user defined)weight

 

Questions: 

Do I in fact need a relation that equals pro_mp_mass or can I call that parameter directly in the repeat region on the drawing?

How do you recall the correct report symbol for an instance in an ASSEMBLY drawing repeat region?

 

I am trying this in the assembly drawing and I am unable to figure it out.

&asm.mbr.(user defined)weight pulls in the weight value for a single component. I am interested in the entire assembly weight for the family table instance.

 

My table is a single column repeat region (not 2-d).

 

I am currently on Creo 2.0 M110.

 

I appreciate the help in advance!

Delete latest iterations/versions of file to leave it as a "base" part (xx.prt not xx.prt.2)

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue I am having with my PDM system and I just want to eliminate this as a soruce of error. I'd like to just keep the base part nomenclature (xxx.prt) and remove all the iteration numbers at the end. I know running purge will delete older iterations (leaving me with xxx.prt.5 but not xxx.prt) however in this case I want to do the reverse. Is there any good way to do this?

Reorientation of the coordinate point xyz planes

Hi all,

Actually i need to re orient the X Y Z plane(Default coordinate point) as mentioned in the below picture. And i do not want to delete the existing default coordinate point. So what i have done means, Just I have rotated the coordinate point(XYZ) as per my requirement and set the views and renamed the planes also. Now i have achieved what i expected.

 

But the problem is the standard orientation(Ctrl+D) view, I have modified all other views. When i give standard orientation view the model or assembly view shows reversible & improper view.

 

I have not able to modify the standard orientation view. Kindly suggest

1) how to modify standard orientation(Ctrl+D) view.

or

2) How to achieve the required view xyz coordinate point with the existing coordinate point.

3) The below mentioned x y z directions are correct? And what is the correct x y z directions?

4) What is global coordinate system directions?

5) What system PTC follows and why?

Expecting your suggestions guys. Thanks in advance

Replacing Model in Drawing

I have a drawing which I copied and renamed.   We are currently creating a development drawing and then later a production drawing in which we use a different drawing number.     I want to replace the model in which the views are created from with an identical model assembly with a slightly different part number.  I've tried the "Drawing Models" commands and I've added the model, so it shows up in my list of models.  I've tried to use "Replace" but it doesn't seem to work.   How would I go about doing this and preserving my views and dimensions, etc.?   Thanks
