Creo Parametric - Dimensions in Sketch Mode

This Creo Parametric tutorial shows all the various ways to create dimensions for geometric entities in Sketch Mode. This is a long video, so you can jump to the following times:

0:06 Strong Dimensions
1:23 Length and Distance
2:50 Angles
4:56 Arcs and Circles
6:26 Diameters for Revolved Features
7:58 Splines
9:13 Conics
12:10 Ellipses
15:49 Ordinate, Reference, and Perimeter
19:45 Tapered
20:34 Known Dimensions

This video was created using Creo Parametric 5.0, but the techniques still apply to earlier versions. Commands from the Mini-Toolbar are available in Right Mouse Button menus instead, and the iconified commands are spelled out in earlier versions.

Write a comment if you think I missed any dimension types - although I'm 99% certain I didn't! Also please write a comment if you think I should make more videos like this.

all your cad videos are superb..I really appreciate for sharing valuable knowledge.

Great explanation thanks a lot Dave !! I have a question please if you don't mind. in the sketch mode, what is the difference between (centerline, point, coordinate systems) commands in the datums group vs in the sketching group. thank you

Thank you very much for your work helping us all learn.
My knowledge of Creo has accelerated due to your channel. Could you clarify when using relations in a part, does this mean you can still reference those relations in a sketch of that part?

[shashikumarkalledevar]

Wow, good explanation... helping me alot.... Thank You....

Hi sir your explanation really helpful I already share to my friends . Do you offer teaching online based and can you elaborate more with some examples it will be helpful to everyone

[subbusubramanyam]

Sir what to do when conflict arises while keeping dimension.how to resolve conflict I am unable to give exact dimension when conflict occurs. Sir help me in this

[Imacutebanygirl]

For some dimensions I’m keep getting Resolve sketch error asking me Undo/delete it! What should I do 😭 to do it like u without receiving errors

[charlix]

How can I locate the dimension (Middle click) if I am using a mousepad instead of a mouse?

[kranthikumarkatta]

i. The Air Circulator
ii. Piston Assembly
iii. Engine Block and Drawing
iv. Blower Assembly
v. Engine Blower Assembly
We we're trying alot for these videos on YouTube but we can't find .

Can you please describe and design them with dimensions and we are interested in simulations.

We are very proud to be see your videos

unrelated but when i search creo - dimension i find this too

[aronhakansson]

That yellow box that shows the symbol ID does not show in my creo9. Very annoying.

I have been a long time solid works user. I have gotten super familiar with how it works. New job is requiring me to learn creo parametric. I am super new to it and am beyond frustrated. The simplest task of dimensioning is overly complicated. I have to unlearn the easy way of doing things and learn a new much harder way. Thank you the explanation but left click right click middle click? Stong and weak dimensioning? This learning process is going to painful.
