good to know, thanks for showing off screencast-o-matic, that looks pretty good!
View ArticleRe: Can you make a closed and tangent-to-itself datum curve in Creo 2.0?
To answer the original problem - now read clearly. The question is how to make the datum-curve-through-points so that it is closed and has tangency continuity. I'd suggest repeating points, 10 or 20 if...

Yes, it can capture whatever you select of the whole screen. It was a quick video and it probably doesn't get the full impact of what I am trying to show. I am not sure what happens if you make the...

Ryan, I do like Screencast better than Camstudio. It does mess with the "fluidity" of Creo, but if you know to expect it, you can compensate. Do you know if you can change highlight colors when you...

No sweat - it's better than my videos. In the days before Intent Manager it was often a challenge when nearly vertical or horizontal line segments were required. One would have to exaggerate the...

Wait till you give this a try for yourself, David Splines are pretty dumb in Creo.
View ArticleRe: Can you make a closed and tangent-to-itself datum curve in Creo 2.0?
Edit, Matt- I can make the ends of a datum curve through points normal to a plane but not to itself. So you could have a tangency, but it is not defined that way. Datum curve through points...

I've finally found the issue with datum curves staying in blue color. I've had this config.pro option set "system_curves_color 0 0 49". That's why the line "SYSTEM_CURVES_COLOR 0.000000 50.000000...

Thanks Dale, I have changed the symbol value of the dimension from d11 to A in my model under the dimension properies. What would the repeat region path be? i.e. fam.inst.param.value.......&A?

I believe you need to add a filter to select which values are shown. Look for "Suggested Technique for Creating a Table of a Family Table Part Without Using a 2D Repeat Region" on the internet.

Hello, Please help me with creating a datum tag on a diameter according to the pic below (creo parametric 1.0) Thnx for help
View ArticleRe: Can you make a closed and tangent-to-itself datum curve in Creo 2.0?
Yes, the closed sketch spline want to go tangent to itself. You know that is the most natural curve. As Dale points out, however, a datum curve will not close the same way. That one you have to trick...

The idea is that you re-assign datum tags to features you want them to be assigned to. in this case, you want a leader. I find the implementation cumbersome and I choose to use a customized symbol...

And be careful with Creo 1 and datum tags. FILE OFTEN! While moving the tags around the screen will freeze and then cause a fatal crash.

Mark,Go with what David recommended. That .pdf is pretty self explanitory. I missed that you were looking to put the values of all the instances in the same table.Thanks, Dale
