Hallo Zusammen,ich brauche vorhandene Creo Baugruppen im Format Vrml2.Creo hat 2 Möglichkeiten über die "speichern als" "kopie speichern" in das Format .wrl zu speichern. Vrml und 4D NavigatorVrml = Alle Einzelteile werden mit ausgegeben. Vrml version = 2

Not many people working with the old VRML language. I use to hand edit Pro|E outputs in VRML. Even that was VRML 2.0.

The output of VRML from Creo is minimalistic at best. I think all you need to do is change the header and to some global swaps for specific syntax. It is certainly not impossible.

Again, Creo cannot give VRML readers smoothing, textures, or even surface colors (only body color per "object"). Some of these attributes can be changed within the WRL files before importing.

I hope you are wrong and we find an option that allows VRML-1.0 compatible output formats.

Find yourself a good VRML-2.0 viewer

Hello Antonius,

that's right, when you save as VRML. The result is VRML 2.0.

When you save as 4D Navigator. the result is VRML 1.0. Ans this is my problem.

I need completly assemblies in one file like 4D navigator.

Save as VRML cannot create Assemblies in one file.

ACCESS CONTROL:

In order to use this capability, a user just needs to include the config.pro option "allow_4dnav_export" set to "yes".
Note that customer must also have a specific option code called "Pro/4DNavigator" in addition to the config.pro option in order to access this capability.
Customers should see their PTC Representative to obtain this code.

USER INTERFACE:

With the above access controls set, the user will be able to use this new fucntionality with the following menu picks:
- Prior Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire releases:

FILE > EXPORT > MODEL > 4D_Navigator

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire release and later:

File > Save a Copy and Type: "4D Navigator (*.wrl)"

Thank you for posting the solution.

Did the option cost extra money?

edit: If you activate this in config.pro, the option works wonderfully in Creo 2.0 without additional license information.

This is a most excellent tip! Thanks again.

Please feel free to mark your answer as correct.

but that does not solve my problem.

The files in 4D Navigator are in VRML 1.0.

I need VRML 2.0

Hi,

you can test following procedure:

open your assembly
save it in IGES flat format
import IGES file as part
save the part using VRML (*.wrl) type
open VRML file in yout viewer

I am loosing track of this discussion, then.

VRML 2 made assemblies more efficient by repeating the same part from a single external source.

I suppose you could import the VRML1 as a part and export it as a VRML (VRML2-.wrl) to have the single file.
