About PATRAN Geometry
PATRAN software systems can read a PATRAN geometry file of a Creo part. The system formats this file according to the specifications of a PATRAN neutral file. It contains mathematical definitions of items such as surface data which bound a solid. Creo does not accept files from PATRAN systems as input.
PATRAN files are ASCII text files. The system stores them in the current directory. You can rename or modify them using standard operating system commands.
You can access the PATRAN Geom option only in Part mode.
