That's correct. Flat to screen surface finishes do not have a directional annotation plane and do not support an extension line. You cannot drag surface finishes off the model surfaces that are created flat to screen. In Creo, if the placement surface is planar, then you can drag surface finishes in the XY direction beyond...

With Creo 6.0, PTC has enhanced ModelCheck to include additional checks for tolerances, annotations, features, and combined states. For example - Annotations that are not referencing any surfaces Annotations not included in any combined state ModelCheck can identify any combined states that are not following the naming conventions within the user defined list of names...

In Creo, if the placement surface is planar, then you can drag surface finishes in the XY direction beyond the placement surface. An extension line is created in the XY-direction when you drag the surface finish off the reference surface as shown below You can drag the surface finish in the Z-direction even when it...

In Creo, some shape surface sets that are selected for removal contain surfaces that are shared by shapes included in the surface set, and shapes that are not included in the surface set. The system automatically splits these shared surfaces so that only the portions of the shared surfaces that belong to the selected shapes... Continue Reading →
Quilts in Creo can be trimmed in a few ways (see below). Adding a cut or slot as you do to remove material from solid featuresTrimming the quilt at its intersection with another quilt or to its own silhouette edge as it appears in a certain viewFilleting corners of the quiltTrimming along a datum curve...

With Creo 5.0 release, you can flip the normal direction of a loft surface from one side of a boundary curve to the other side. However, in previous releases of Creo, you could not control the direction of the normal connection of a loft surface where the boundary curve is planer. As a result, the... Continue Reading →
In Creo Parametric, you can replace an entity and redefine a section after several features are created. The children of the replaced entity are automatically rerouted to the new entity. To replace one of the sketcher entities in the part, use the below steps Step 1: In Sketcher, sketch the... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
