Placement of References Is Improved in Creo Intelligent Fastener (IFX)
In the fastener data file, you can use one name instead of different identifiers (ids) to place references.
Release: Creo Parametric 7.0.0.0
What is the benefit of this enhancement?
You can assign a name to SURFACE, AXIS, and ORIENT instead of using item ids:
Before
SURFACE

12
128
296
AXIS
10
8
117
24
After
SURFACE
PLACEMENT_SURFACE
AXIS
PLACEMENT_AXIS
You can add columns to #SURFACE, #AXIS, and #ORIENT to control the item ids of each fastener instance.
