For users who haven't been working with Rio for very long, the whole layer management is quite confusing. IMHO a lot of things are unnecessarily complicated. All the better that you can find support here. Thanks and happy new year
I don't know what you mean by "total" best practices. But I wrote an entire book on Design Intent. I cover healthy practices for many modes within Creo. (I hate the term "best practices." I find that it's overused. Also, in CAD and product development, there usually isn't a "best." There are only trade-offs.)
Hi Dave, In my 30 years of running Pro I don't think I've ever had the need to work with bodies. TBH, I'm not really sure what they even are, or, what they can do for me. In this example I would just have separate part files. Because, you know, I need to have something produced. I looked thru the archives and didn't really find a video on what they are and why I would use body models verses what I consider to be part models. Thanks.
Also, a few years ago, I made a video for PTC called "Creo Face Off: Creo 8 vs Creo 4." It includes some time comparisons for design problems with Multibody techniques versus traditional design modeling tools. Of course, you don't have to use Multibody tools in Creo. But they do expand your design capabilities. It's the same as Top Down Design. You could perform all your modeling using traditional Bottom Up techniques. But Top Down - and Multibody - can help you make models that are more parametric, flexible, and robust, as well as save you time and effort.
and again in the new year - only the best stuff!
Thanks! Happy New Year.
Hello Dave Martin and happy new year
Thank you for such important tutorial
Thank you for watching.

Does we have any series which having industry level design with

I have several videos and even playlists on Multibody. I go extensively into the use cases.
