Detailed Drawings
Option to Control Snapping of Leader Annotation for Normal and Tangent Placement
Control the snapping behavior for normal and tangent placement of leader annotations.


When you place a leader annotation on an edge, the normal or tangent leaders appear as soon as the cursor position is beyond the snapping angle threshold. You may turn off this snapping in order to place a leader annotation very close to a normal or a tangent placement without the snapping. You can now control the snapping behavior and also decide on the snapping sensitivity using a configuration option annotation_snap_to_guide_range.
Configuration Option to Control the Display State of Layers in Drawings[
There is a configuration option to control the display state of layers when switching Layer Tree display from drawing to individual view mode. You can control the display state of drawing layers when switching from the top model drawing to individual view mode. This configuration option helps to copy the drawing layer visibility status to individual view and save a lot of time, especially when only few changes are needed.
New Values for Drawing Detail Option gtol_datums for Detailed Drawings
Two new values are added for the detailed drawing option gtol_datums.
The two new values for the drawing detail option gtol_datums control the display of leader attachment for stacked gtols according to the selected detailing standards.
Shortcut to Apply Box Formatting to Text in Notes
You can easily define box formatting for a text in a note a keyboard shortcut. Select the desired note text in the graphics window and press Ctrl+[ (opening square bracket) to add a box around the selected text. To remove the box, press Ctrl+[ again.


Configuration Option to Control the Default Tolerance Table Setting for Dimensions in Detailed Drawings and Model-Based Definition
There is a configuration option to control the default setting for tolerance table for dimensions in model and drawings that are set to ISO/DIN tolerance standards. Use the configuration option default_iso_tol_table_type to specify the default value for the tolerance table setting for the dimension tolerance. This configuration option saves the unnecessary clicks when defining dimension tolerances.
Cross-Section Arrows and Names Move Together in Drawings
There is a new configuration option and command on a shortcut menu to define the movement of cross-section names or arrows. When working with large drawings, it can be difficult to select cross-section arrows or names. You might inadvertently select and move only the cross-section name, while keeping the arrows behind.
Simulation
ANSYS Solver for Creo Simulation Live is Updated
ANSYS introduced a new solver (2020R1) that has been implemented in Creo 6.0.5.0. The updated solver provides more accurate simulation results with less resources. The solver for Creo Simulation Live has been updated to the latest ANSYS Solver (2020R1). This solver is more efficient in allocating video memory and provides more GPU power in solving Creo Simulation Live studies. This produces more accurate results with less resources. The new solver handles thin-walled geometry with a better resolution than in previous releases.


Creo 6.0 has officially been released. The latest version includes a range of new features as well as general improvements to help you and your team design better products faster. It includes new additive manufacturing capabilities, real-time simulation, Augmented Reality (AR) tools, and general productivity enhancements.
PTC has moved to an annual release cycle. With this increased released speed, users will naturally see a bit less in each release. It will be harder to compare each new version to the previous version, or even the two previous versions. This will also impact how older versions of Creo are supported.
This means that every 3-4 versions of Creo will likely be designated as an enterprise build. These builds are safe to move to/stay on for a longer time and PTC will continue to release .X version updates. Other intermittent versions, even larger numbered updates, will not receive the same treatment.


New Additive Manufacturing Capabilities
Creo 6.0 expands on its existing additive manufacturing capabilities. These new features provide you with increased flexibility when designing for 3D printing.
- Optimization: The Creo Topology optimization extension provides you with optimization tools specifically for 3D printing. Users also have more control over animating results in an updated results platform.
- Build direction: Optimize build direction on 3D printing platforms to include more parts in a single print, eliminate support structures, or decrease printing time.
- Lattice structure: Creo 6.0 expanded their lattice optimization structures from 2.5D and 3D to include formula-driven designs. Users can define custom structures using geometry or use pre-formulated designs like gyroids, conformal, or stochastic lattices.
Real-Time Simulation with Creo Simulate Live
Creo Simulate Live, supported by ANSYS technology, provides simulation results in real-time, significantly shortening and improving the entire product design process. The combined modeling and simulation environments help supports analysis-driven design to create better products faster. Using Creo Simulate Live, organizations can:
- Decrease costs: Using analysis helps you catch problems before creating physical prototypes. This decreases product development costs and total product lifecycle costs.
- Optimize processes: New products get to market faster when extraneous steps are removed and total product development processes are shortened.
- Increase product quality: Simulation provides the tools you need to make informed decisions, which increases product quality and performance.
Augmented Reality for Better Collaboration
The new Creo 6.0 cloud-based AR features help teams create incredible AR experiences that improve collaboration. Experiences can even be shared among suppliers and stakeholders, so everyone involved in a project is on the same page.
Creo 6.0 lets you create and manage up to 10 designs. Experiences can be launched via QR codes and are compatible with the Microsoft HoloLens. Using these features allows everyone to explore designs in context and at scale. Teams can:
- Define, create, publish, and distribute AR experiences
- Collaborate with stakeholders
- Control access to experiences with user-defined permissions
- Ensure no critical IP is lost
- Utilize the PTC cloud-portal for experience management and sharing
- Support and enable sales and marketing efforts
Creo 6.0 Productivity Improvements
In addition to new features, PTC always makes general productivity improvements to the Creo platform so you can keep making new products faster.
- Model trees are now aligned more closely with the graphics area. Navigation customizations are saved and stored for any time a model is reopened.
- Skins and dashboards have been further optimized to group together related functions and provide easy access to help information for each feature.
- Mini-toolbars are included in-feature and within the graphics area to provide you with access to the tools you need right when you need them.
- Cable ties and markers have a new streamlined interface so you can quickly and easily add them to models.
- Continued volume sweep tool helps you easily generate the curve that the tool follows during CNC machining processes.
- Model-based design features have been improved with an optimized interface that offers more intuitive tools for placing notes on models.

Creo applications are supported in many languages at three levels in the order shown.
- Character support
- Localized user interfaces
- Localized documentation
With character support for a language, characters appear accurately on the screen when you type and when you view items such as drawings or 3D notes. Character support for a language does not always mean that the user interface or related documentation is also available in that language.
Character support is available for the following languages, which are listed in order of implementation from English through Slovak.
