    Drawing Model in Creo 2

    When I try to DEL model I get the error at the bottom that reads "Cannot delete model with views using it". I need to somehow replace the model in the view first but have not been able to find how to do so.

    Drawing Model in Creo 2

    Okay I'm in Pro E Creo 2.0 and working on a drawing. I normally work on NX and these two do not work the same. The original assembly I set the drawing to was named incorrectly so I did a save as on the assembly. I am trying to replace the old assembly in the drawing with the new one that has...

    Troubleshoot Pro Weld / Slot weld.

    Using Pro E / Creo 2 weld application. Need help troubleshooting. Never used Pro weld before and having an issue with creating a slot weld. I have no issues creating a regular fillet weld in my assembly but the plug/slot weld keeps giving an error of "Cannot intersect base plane with side...

    3D weld symbol editing

    I am just to new to ProE I guess. Just to be clear I'm dealing with 3D weld symbols. When I go into properties nothing comes up to allow for decimal changes and I don't know how to "switching to symbol mode"

    3D weld symbol editing

    Still too new to Creo 2. These questions all have to do with the weld symbols that re created automatically in Pro Weld. 1. Where do I change the decimal place call out? I want the weld size of 4.00 that's generated to be only a 1 place dimension and show as 4 as well as the weld length...

    Weld length adjustment

    Tell me if this is an option in Pro E Creo 2 please. Say you are creating a simple fillet weld using the weld application. The two components being welded have a seam that's ten inches long so the weld operator creates a weld along the entire seam automatically. The problem is we do not want...

    Creating Welds in Creo

    Still rather new to Pro E, Creo 2, here so bear with me. I have a sheet metal assembly and I need to show welds in the assembly. The issue is that when I activate the weld application it defaults to the top level assembly. My engineer would like the welds in a separate part file with their...

    Showing feature mass in Part Nav - NX8

    Hello everyone. I'm trying to help out a friend so I don't know all the reasons why his project is the way it is but I'll try to explain the predicament as best as possible. We're both on NX 8.0.3 He has a file with a couple hundred dead bodies (parasolids) in it for features. (Why this is I...

    NX8 - Flange, General Flange, Form / Unform

    We noticed the same thing here regarding Sheet Metal General Flange missing in modeling. Does this mean we will now be required to convert all of our solid models into sheet metal in order to use the flange operator?

    Assembly constraints not working in NX7.5

    Thanks Toost, The "Delay Assembly Constraints" was not checked off but I did an update all anyway and now the assembly contraints work. I don't get it but at least I have a fix next time. Thanks again. Cid1979, Unfortunatly the company I work for would not take kindly to sending files out of...

    Assembly constraints not working in NX7.5

    Hello All, I'm on NX 7.5. For some reason when I create an assembly constraint, the constraint appears (yellow in color) but the part never moves to the new position. I do not have any kind of delay move set that I can find in the preferences and cannot find what option in the custmer defaults...

    Sketch Dimension Turned Black

    While the sketch is activated go to Preferences > Sketch. You may get a warning, just OK thru it. On the last tab of the pallet that comes up you'll see "Part Settings" Go here and the second item down is "Driving Dimensions". Poke the color box and choose a new lighter color.

    NX 7.5 Fillet Weld

    Hello all, I am working in 7.5 with a sheet metal assembly that needs to be welded. Each sheet metal part, as well as the welds, is a component withing a master assembly file. I emphasize that the welds are in their own file so when I create the fillet welds the weld file is the working part...
