Add a text sketch in creo pro e7/8/2023 ![]() ![]() I have the drawing open and am searching, but don't seem to see anywhere that I have errors. Now, I'm not sure where you are seeing these errors. The text involves creating a new part, an assembly, or drawing, using a set of Pro/E commands, walking you through the process systematically and guiding you through parametric design. In the case of my other question, I was trying to put supports between the case wall and back and this is what I was referring to as adverse effects when pushing the block into the case (selfintersect). students, PRO/ENGINEER WILDFIRE 5.0 is an extremely beneficial book for both aspiring and newly employed engineers. In this case, I wanted to place the mounting posts on the back face, but also "attach" them to the side of the case. placing objects so that they either touch or don't touch another edge. That's really what my other question (linked above) is about. Step 5: Select the corner of the surface and click OK. Step 2: Top plane>sketch and draw a semi circle. So, when drawing any object, it will be best to NOT have them intersect any other object, unless you are actually trying to do a boolean operation? Or, if I do have something intersect, can it be 'trimmed' at the intersection? I know I can draw stuff in the same sketch and use the Trim An Edge tool (I used this to create the mounting hole slots), but I am not sure if I would, again, need to link the edge to external geometry, then trim the circle at the point where it meets this edge. Step 1: Start Creo element/pro or pro engineer wildfire in part mode. Looks like I need to map an edge to external geometry (lot's more reading to do!) before I can do that. I could have drawn the posts smaller and actually constrained it to the wall of the case, but I didn't know how to accomplish this. In this instance, I tried to have the posts intersect the wall of the case, but I did not know this would be a problem. I think this will relate to my other question regarding attaching a sketch to multiple faces. So, what you're saying is that I've drawn the circle for the mounting post too close to the side of the box, so that it intersects with the side of the box, which is causing a coplanning error? I actually tried to get the mounting posts to intersect the wall of the box so that they would print as one, thereby giving support to both the mounting post and the side of the box. Click Close to close the Text Symbol dialog box. The symbol appears in the Enter text box and in the graphics area. Select the symbol that you want to insert. The selfintersect happens when the vertices and edges of the Pad become coplanar with the side of the box. If required, click to insert special text symbols. Changing the Mounting Posts OD to 3.999 mm will fix that problem, but that will then change the Face count and you'll need to remap Sketch005 to it's face and maybe redo Chamfer to fix it.

It was not attached to the base that was drawn and was a 2D wire frame before extrusion, which led me to believe that I could place 2D text on an object and either pad or pocket it into the face it was on. I would pick the back face of the case, press S to bring up ShapeString, picked a point on the face, typed my text, picked the size and tracking and when I hit enter, the entire model would disappear.įollowing the tutorial, I was able to complete the text in 3D. Pick a face, pick a font and size, type what you want. ![]() I guess I assumed text placement would be like Photoshop or something. I tried to put text onto an existing face. I did complete the tutorial on it's own). I did everything like the tutorial said, with the exception of not actually drawing a new rectangle (when trying to put it in my drawing. It’s better to take the time in the beginning than to add information to existing models afterward.Cox wrote:I am not sure what happens, could you try to explain step by step what you are doing as the "How to" you refer to is stand alone text and does not fit your model exactly. Take time in the beginning to get the templates right. ![]() For example, if your organization starts creating 3D drawings, consider what templates you’ll need that you didn’t have in your current CAD software. You may have new functionality or abilities in Creo Parametric than what was available in your current CAD software, and you may need new templates.
