Updates to the model tree in Creo 9 look to make it faster to structure, document, and understand design intent, building on the Design Item Tree introduced in Creo 8.Ī new Quilt/Body Evolution Tree is employed to give a structured view of how your model is built up. The ‘general updates’ continue to come thick and fast. But also for the purpose of simulation, when you want to have greater control over the exact area where a particular load or constraint is applied to.” Surfaces can now be divided in Creo 9, adding some immediate benefits “And they need to capture that rich information in a 3D model. I swear, sometimes i wonder if the UI people have ever used the product.“It’s an item that is crucial as companies are moving towards Model-Based Definition (MBD),” says Sagar. It can be a major pain in the ass figuring out where things are. So, that functionality isnt very good.Īnd, they buried features in places they had no business being. The sketch inside the feature vs external sketch is a good example - back in the old days that was the only way to do it, so most PTC users would never think to make a sketch first and then revolve.

And, because the new UI was written on top of the old kernel, its kludgy and cumbersome, especially if you are used to other packages. Over the years, PTC has updated the UI to make it more like other packages, only to piss off existing users. After 4 years of SW, i switched back to Pro/E (Creo by then) and spent another 2 years bitching about Creo.Ĭreo is a very old software package - I'm sure its kernel outdates most other packages. When I switched from Pro/E to solidworks, i spent 2 years bitching i couldn't do some things in SW that were easy in Pro/E.
