To replace one of the sketcher entities in the part, use the below steps Step 1: In Sketcher, sketch the... Continue Reading →
Have you tried the enhanced mini toolbar in Creo?
In Creo Parametric 4.0, when objects of different types are selected, a single invariant toolbar would appear. This has been improved with Creo 5.0 as shown below For selection of surface + datum axis For selection of surface + quilt For selection of datum + surface + round ... Continue Reading →
Did you know about improved control of visibility by object type in Creo?
PTC has improved the control of visibility by object type in Part and Assembly modes by adding 2 commands - Show All or Show All Except There are 3 ways to access these new, additional commands for Showing and Hiding objects 1. From View Tab 2. Mini toolbar from graphics area 3. From Model Tree... Continue Reading →
How to assemble components to a Dimension Pattern in Creo?
Using dimension-driven patterns help specify multiple occurrences of a component in an assembly. The dimension-driven pattern uses assembly constraint dimensions such as Distance or Angle Offset offset values. The rules for creating a dimension-driven pattern are the same as those for feature patterning in Part mode. Example below - A component assembled with a distance constraint is patterned using...

Did you know that defining radial dimensions in Creo is more intuitive now?
PTC has improved the workflow for creating radial dimensions. The Typical creation of radial dimension provides upto 4 flip states that represents different witness line and arrow configurations. Starting with Creo 5.0, the definition of flip states is improved to provide better default states, depending on the position of the pointer. This provides visual feedback... Continue Reading →
Did you know that you can assign different appearances to the same component in Creo?
We can now capture multiple appearance combinations for the same part and assembly and easily switch between appearance variants. Use Appearance state instead of Combined state. To do this goto View Manager to set the appearance state of your component. You can also use appearance states inside combined states and switch between... Continue Reading →
