CREO SCHEMATICS NIGHTMARE

$

Is anybody using Creo Schematics?

 

if so, do you know what is the main market for this product?

 

 

I just want to share this in order to see what other users think about.

 

 

I got it last year however it seems to be toought to do what I want to do.  I have to do schematics for control boxes, junction boxes and things like that.

 

So I need to use terminal blocks with up 4 conencting points, however it seems to be impossible with CREO SCHEMATICS.

 

I select a double side connector but it only allows me to connect up to 3 wires (2 in one side and 1 on the other side) so waht about my 4th wire? I have to use a free point connection in order to fix but the Creo Schematics is expensive and that simple thing is not possible (at least not in a easy way).

 

 

next thing.

 

The bundle cables: the library has a tamplate for up to 3 conductors (which is nothing in most cases) however does not have a way to set the numbers of conductors you need (that is bad).

 

OK then you create your own bundle cables with the conductors needed and it has a specific size and leght of conductors.  The problem is when you need to use it in a different sheet.  Once you insert this in a new sheet and you want to make it bigger (or smaller)  you are in trouble, the position of the connections are separated to the new distance however the conductors/wire stays at the same place.making look it bad.

 

if you want to adjust the wire  to the new position it is a nightmare you can not get a straight line again the vertex decided where to go by itself so iIended up making a new wire again my point here is that CREO Schematics is an expesive software and should help instead of make things worst.

 

next thing

 

trying to draw something: it is tought surely. if you need to draw a shape of a new part, it is tought, I have draft sight for free, so I draw whatever i want to do then I import the drawing to Creo schematics. Do you think this is OK.?

 

you have to draw in a free software becuase it is way easier then import the draw in an expensive software, unbelive.

 

 

I have tried the elearnig triaining however they never show any real aplication, they only shows how to connect a buzzer, what CREO Schematics does not know is that most companies does not only install buzzer in their systems.

 

 

I apprecite any comments about
