Enhanced Reporting of Missing References in Creo
Creo Parametric 11.0.0.0
User Interface Location: On the status bar, click Notification Center.
Description
Creo 11, enhances the reporting of missing references within the notification center. You can turn on the notifications for the category Extended local reference handling in the Notification Center tab of the Creo Options dialog box.
This option enables Creo to report missing references within the current part or assembly context, even for features that do not fail. For example, you can see the notifications for missing weak references or missing references for which an alternate reference was found. The reference status is shown in the model tree column Parent Details. It indicates whether local references could not be found and are missing. Previously, this was only reported for failed features and their child features.
Additionally, with this enhancement new queries are added to the Model Tree search queries:
• Features with Missing References
• Features with Missing Local References
• Features with Missing External References
• Components with Missing Placement References
After searching for the listed references, you can further investigate the missing references in the Global reference viewer.
Benefits
• Personalize and optimize the notification center reporting to better understand the missing or alternate local references in your model.
• Locate and resolve the model tree queries using the model tree queries and the Global Reference Viewer.
