Yes:

The conclusions that we reached with the PTC visualization expert Jürgen Husemann were, quote:

 

"The required additional DXF functionality of the Creo View Client is only available in the

Creo View Client MCAD.

 

The Lite version does not have the required license for the "load frozen layers" function.

 

Creo View Lite will not retrieve the content of the user-defined layers created in Creo Parametric 2.0."

 

In Productview it was impossible to get this working, so then I tested Creo View. Some months from now, we are planning to use the Lite version, which has options that make the user think that the layers are going to be shown correctly. Indeed, it shows the layers, but then the content overlaps, as I explained before...

However, only the more costly version of Creo View, Creo View MCAD, has the key option that propagates correctly the information from Pro/E layers to viewable layers ("load frozen layers"). We have another setback, which is that we would not like to change the viewable format from HPGL to DXF.

 

Therefore, at this moment we are trying to find alternatives to achieve the high level goal, which is to create Multi-Language drawings for people that don't use Pro/E. Using layers will not work for us. How do other companies create Multi-language drawings for the people on the shop floor? I'm sure that we cannot be the only one with this problem...

We do not like the sheet approach since this is too risky, the user can forget to update details in the other sheet.
