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 →
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...

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 →
Starting with Creo Parametric 5.0 release, the workflow for mirroring of features is enhanced. Mirror workflow provides an intuitive preview and increased flexibility during redefinition. Also, Mirror tool is faster in definition and re-definition of mirror feature. Preview in the graphics windows is available during creation or redefinition of feature for quick visual feedback on...

As a designer, you will want to reorganize the structure of the Annotation Elements (AE) by easily moving an AE from its owner Annotation Feature (AF) to a different AF In earlier releases of Creo Parametric, you must edit the Annotation Features to manage the owners of the various annotation elements in your design. Starting... Continue Reading →
Mark Ganzer from Toro in his presentation talks about editing existing pattern tables. See the picture below Pattern tables allow you to create complicated or irregular patterns of features or groups by letting you specify unique dimensions for each instance in the pattern through an editable table. Multiple tables can be established for a pattern,... Continue Reading →
Lewis Lawrence and William Friend from Weatherford, covered Drawing Formats & Standards in one of their webinar. Here are some snippets from their presentation- Creo uses startup scripts to copy standards in place Creo Standard Configurations in place by product line Every install of Creo uses a defined set of configuration files, specific to location...
