Is there a way to drag components off the asm model tree and onto the work area to add additional copies of a prt/asm in the active asm? (like other applications - not naming any specifically)

What tricks and techniques can I use to reduce the number ofregeneration iterations it takes on a model? Regen TIME is not anissue.I have always been confused by the regeneration "stop light", why isthere not a way to tell it to regenerate until the light is green?

Pro Guru's, I'm trying to do a wave curve using an equaton " y=(.115/2)*cos(3.14159*t/.747)" using cartesian with no success. What am I missing? Thanks, Joe

Hi out thereI wonder since I came on Planet PTC I see that most of my messages are only responded after a day. Most of the time by foreign people.I work from 8 until 17h. Because of the different timezone I think you come on later, but are there so few users of Planet PTC in western Europ.Or do they work so hard or may they not visit this site?RegardsChris

ProUsers,Would there be anyone willing to share some Aluminum Materials Files? I have 6061 but would like some of the other popular alloys too if you wouldn't mind sharing them. TIA. Mike Pavesempavese@productssuppot.com

Hello,I am trying to model a coil winding: a helical layer on a former, followedby another helical layer at a larger diameter and so on.I have figured out the helical layer. I can even get it to increase indiameter as it goes along the drum. I can't get how to increase diameter andstart winding at the new diameter and in the other direction along the curveto get the second layer, then increase diameter again for the third, etc.I hope that makes sense. Any ideas? Thanks, John

Is it possible to change the width of the Hole drop down menu?Please find the attached picture.Thanks in advance,Sharath

from pro_e to creo_elements_prothis sucks.; )

I didn't see this hit the exploder so I thought I would forward it out to those that don't receive it for whatever reason.

Just read this....Effective October 28, 2010, PTC is rebranding the following existing product families: Pro/ENGINEER, CoCreate and ProductView. The new names are set forth below. All of the current products, including modules and packages, remain available under new brands and are excellent options for customers and prospects looking to get on the path to Creo.Pro/ENGINEER becomes Creo Elements/Pro™CoCreate becomes Creo Elements/Direct™ProductView becomes Creo Elements/View™So, we're not working in Pro/E anymore?! It's Creo Elements/Pro????I hope PTC knows what is doing.. I really enjoyed being a Pro/Engineer.Maybe I'm reading it wrong.

Pro/E (Creo Elements/Pro) Gurus,I am looking for a specific material file: ABS Cycolac GPM 5500S.If anybody has one they would like to share, I would appreciate it.Best Regards,James Weed

So far so good.Creo - is the new name.Latin for Create - also means - I Think, I Create, I BelieveNew focus is simple to use, very powerful and able to work in a multiCAD environment.

Greetings all, if you missed the Creo launch this morning, fear not! It was recorded and can now be found here:http://creo.ptc.com/2010/10/28/replay-unveiling-of-creo/I'm curious to hear what you all think after watching it, so feel free to reply with your impressions/comments/etc.~Chris

So, each year I look for ways to get myself to the PTC/User event. (Iusually need to get a paper approved to have a chance.) I'm usuallypretty interested in going and learning and meeting other users. This year, however, with the switch to a PTC run event, I'm feeling nodesire at all to go. Looking at the call for papers page [1], it seemsprimarily devoted to PLM and management, not to the Pro/E user in thetrenches. Big picture, enterprise level ideas seem to dominate and thenitty gritty 'how do I get Pro/E to do ___" or "how to use Pro/E for____" seem to be taking on a lesser role. I get the impression that I'dfind it hard to fill my schedule with relevant presentations. Any other users feeling rather uninspired by the event this year?
