Using saved sections/drawings in sketcher
Instead of making sketches every time in the sketcher mode, we can save and retrieve the sketches that is often used. We have options to reuse an already saved sketch (.sec) or a drawing (.drw). Lets see one by one.
About spin center
In the video, see what happens when you on/off the spin center. Here is the best option. If you want to see the whole part or assembly, switch on the spin center. If you want to see a specific feature in part or a specific component in an assembly, switch off the spin center.
Preview models and drawings
Parts and assemblies are shown in the preview window by default. However for drawings you need to change the default setting in the config.pro file. You can do this using the options inside ProE/ Creo or by directly editing the config.pro file.
Diameter dimension – Display as linear/ straight
This video shows how to change the orientation of a diameter dimension. To get a perfect horizontal or vertical, a snap may be used.
You can also do this using the drawing properties. Open the drawing properties and just check the “show as linear dimension” in and click ok. (See image on left side).
Aligning and moving views in drawings
Projection views are always aligned in ProE/ Creo drawing. That means you can not move a projection view away from the projection lines however you can move the view along the projection lines back and forth or up and down depending upon the projection.
