Creo Parametric (Pro/ENGINEER) Assembly and Part

You can import and view Creo Parametric (Pro/ENGINEER) Assembly (.asm, .xas) , and Creo Parametric (Pro/ENGINEER) Part (.prt*, .xpr) files.

Import Rules

The following rules apply when importing Creo (Pro/E) files:

  • When a file is first opened with the Creo (Pro/E) Module, a medium to low resolution is used by default for fast file loading, and a window displays these resolution settings.

  • The latest version of any part file within the folder is always opened. For example, sprng.prt.3 is opened if the folder contains spring.prt.1, spring.prt.2, and spring.prt.3.

  • Creo (Pro/E) searches through folders for part and assembly files and for corresponding accelerator files in the:

    • Current directory of the file

    • Search paths specified in the CAD Modules tab

  • If a part, assembly or accelerator file is not found, and logging is enabled, the information is logged in SAP 3D Visual Enterprise Author or Generator, depending on the application that you are using.
