This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team. Is there a better way to do this? If so, please let me know how I should do this. Simply select a particular view to 'set' the layer state for that view to be independent from the drawing.
#CREO SKETCH TO GMSH PLUS#
When I did this, it left out all the "strong" dimensions I had put into it plus many other little things which ended up costing me a lot of extra time to get it back into shape. At the top, there is a selection box next to the arrow that allows you to manipulate the layer state for the drawing, model and any view. So, I had to make a bigger panel and copy the sketch over to it.
Well, the panel I had layed out wasn't big enough to have the extra holes added to it while still being asthetically pleasing. For example, I had a control panel layed out and one of the engineers wanted to add some holes to it for more components.
#CREO SKETCH TO GMSH GENERATOR#
I've had situations in the past where I wanted to copy a sketch of a detailed hole layout to another part and I've tried using a simple copy and paste but it doesn't keep all the dimensions exactly like the old sketch had. Chapter 1: Overview 5 1 Overview Gmsh is a three-dimensional finite element grid generator with a build-in CAD engine and post-processor. The meshio-convert option is not clear for me, my first attemps are the following: meshio-convert -i vtk -o gmsh22 testmesh.vtk test.msh WARNING:root:Binary Gmsh needs 32-bit integers (got int64).
#CREO SKETCH TO GMSH HOW TO#
I'd love to know how to get this to work, however.I've been wondering what the best way to copy a sketch from an old part to a new part is. I would like to know if it is possible to export a mesh in vtk format (generated with tetgen) to gmsh format (ascii version 2). The flat is more important for making the mold anyway. I've pretty much given up and created a sketch that works, but isn't quite accurate when "bent". These can all be done from the Geometry Menu under Elementary entities->Add->New. I couldn't get Creo to let me remove that one when i created the arc length dim. In a single plane (2D), create the geometry by first creating all points, then combining the points into lines, and then the lines into a surface. In this case, I want the "depth" of the arc (the 0.002" dim) t ovary as the sketch "bends". The upper point (in my image) represents the thickness of the living hinge.Īn arc length dim would work but the nice thing about a perimeter dim is that you can choose what other dim to allow to vary. So it tilts as the hinge is bent and needs to be able to be an any angle, so no vertical or horizontal constraints work. The "vertical" C/L is defined through the axis that the hinge is assumed to pivot on and symmetric about the corners of the two bodies. In hindsight, this should have been done with a spinal bend, but I think I'm too far along to redefine this now. You can do this using one of two approaches, direct modeling in which you can pull and push directly on geometry, and parametric modeling in which all components are related and a change in one will result in a change in all. Keeping the arc length consistent makes the folded hinge look right. Creo’s modeling and design features allow you to create detailed 3D prototypes in a virtual environment. I'm trying to get a more accurate visual representation of the hinge when folded.
