We would like to transfer our Mathcad 14.0 installation to a new hardware due to a hardware replacement. Is there any advice about how to get an updated license file?

I have code that I have written in C using the toolkit on Creo Parametric 12.4.3.0.  It tries to connect to Creo using ProEngineerConnect(), and it works fine if Creo is up.  When Creo is not running it returns a PRO_TK_E_NOT_FOUND value, which is expected.  If I have the call to ProEngineerConnect in a for-loop my executable dies after the third try when Creo is not running.  Here is the call:iStatus = ProEngineerConnect("",NULL,NULL,"",PRO_B_TRUE,10U,&bRandom,&hSession);This code worked just fine using Creo 10, but is failing under Creo 12.  I am using VS 2022. 

I have a part with a helical sweep that I need to machine.  I would like it to place the tool in such a way as to follow a continuing loop from the outside edge until it reaches the bottom of the groove.  This is a R.325 with 30 degree lead ins and I will be using a 1/2” ball.  My initial thought was cutline, but since there really is no 2nd cutline, it doesn’t work.  The auto cutline doesn’t work either. Attached is a photo.  You can see where one end of the helix starts, the other end looks the same, but is 180 degrees apart from the start.  I’d really like to tackle this with a continuous 4 axis motion instead of what would be a simplier approach in using straight surface milling. I’d appreciate any ideas. Thank you!

I am using Creo Schematics Release 12.0 and Datecode12.0.0.0 Hello Sir/Ma'am, I am giving a Demo for Creo Schematics and I came across one doubt. Is it possible to route a wire between a component in one sheet to another component placed in another sheet? If yes do let me know, how can we do it and what are the parameters, we should take care of for doing it? Thank you, Regards, Amrut Dalvi Cadopt Technologies Pvt. Ltd Here are the errors that I faced NA

Hello everyone,I am running Creo Parametric 11.0.5.0 Education on Windows 11 ARM inside Parallels Desktop 20.4 on an Apple Mac mini M4 Pro with 12 Cores and 24 GB of RAM for the Virtual Machine.After adding the following lines at the beginning of parametric.psfENV=PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=AMD64ENV=PRO_MACHINE_TYPE=x86e_win64Creo starts and works correctly in Shaded mode. However, as soon as Shaded with Edges is enabled, severe graphical corruption appears. Hundreds of incorrect black lines are drawn between unrelated vertices. The surfaces themselves are rendered correctly.Interestingly, during the first second while the model is still loading, the edges are displayed correctly. The corruption only appears after the loading process has finished.Changing edge_display_quality from very_high to low only changes the edge quality but does not solve the issue.Larger assemblies also eventually crash with EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION.Trying the same on an older MacBook Air M1, Creo runs significan

I have a user getting the following error when launching  The latest Trial version of Creo Parametric. “Creo Parametric Trial Edition is shutting down because it could not run the Quality Agent, which is required in this edition. error 0x0000000b” Anyone know a fix for this?

Hello Creo API team,We are building a Creo Plugin . We already have tessellation data in memory:Vertex coordinates (x, y, z) Triangle connectivity (facet index list) Optional normalsCan we create faceted/mesh geometry in a Creo part from this data programmatically (no UI)?Specifically: Is there a public ProToolkit API to create mesh geometry directly from in-memory vertex + triangle buffers (similar to passing a vertex buffer and index buffer)?If not, what is the recommended approach Environment: Creo 11.x, ProToolkit C++, Windows x64.Thank you.

A preview of something that is being tested within CREOSON, looking for feedback and ideas.Keep these questions in mind as you read:Do I (or my company) care about my data going to someone else’s AI / Cloud? What use cases, processes, interfaces cause pain today? How could this change my day? Why do I care?The intent is to provide a FREE AI MCP (Model Context Protocol) interface within CREOSON that enables your AI Agents to connect to and drive Creo Parametric either as a specific set of contextual tasks - or within the context of other systems/environment workflows (e.g. YOUR models, standards, documents, EPR, PLM, etc.).  Seems like this would be super powerful, and provide a lot of utility. This screen capture is an example of an AI Agent validating a connection to a new CREOSON MCP Endpoint (prototype currently). CREOSON - AI MCP Endpoint First Connection Test ResultThe CREOSON MCP Server enables you to choose/bring your own AI (Commercial Platform or Local AI).  The screenshot abo

Summary of the IssueCreo Parametric 13.4.0.0 is causing a catastrophic failure of the Windows graphics subsystem across every machine tested, including: University lab computers Instructor workstations Student laptops My personal workstation The failure is identical across all systems: initiating certain display operations causes a full backscreen eventObserved BehaviorAcross all affected machines: Entire display system blacks out All monitors reset No Creo traceback or crash log is generated System becomes unresponsive for several seconds Creo must be manually relaunched, unsaved work is lost. Crashes occur seemingly at random. This issue is present on my personal computer, laptop, university computers, instructor computers, and other student’s personal machines.

After a Wibdows 11 update some weeks ago, Microsoft Edge version 150 closes a few seconds after it is opened. This is not a problem for me normaly because I prefer to use Google Chrome. However Mathcad Prime seems to insist on using Edge.I have set Chrome as the default browser and then installed Prime 12.0.0.1 even though I use English as the Prime language. Still no good.Does anyone know how to get Mathcad Prime to use Chrome?Thanks for your help.

PTC is hosting two live webinars about Mathcad Templates: on September 8 and September 10. The content of the webinars is similar, but the times and presenters are different, so sign up for the timing which is most convenient!“Build Once, Reuse Always: Mathcad Templates” promotional imageYou’ll learn about how Mathcad templates work and why you’ll want to use them. Our PTC technical experts will be sharing best practices to get the most out of templates, going beyond the basics. That said, we strongly encourage beginner Mathcad Prime users to attend; this free event will accelerate your Mathcad adoption and have you greatly speed up your ability to make new projects in Mathcad.We’ll also be taking live Q&A at the end of each session. The webinars will be recorded, and we’ll make the replays for both available after the event. We’ll also make the presentation materials available for download as part of that replay experience.

OK, a weird one..2 issues: 1st issue is that my Creo 9 has decided to open in a minimized state.  Nothing changed on my end, except a recent windows update.  Now I get a very small Creo window, when I used to get an almost maximized window.  all settings are as they were the week before 2nd issue is that when I open a drawing, I get a blank sidebar, a 2nd blank ‘model tree’.  There is nothing in it, and no top bar to close or anything.  it’s just a blank ‘sidebar.  And it covers content.. And it’s only with .DRW files.. The work-around is to close Creo, then restart it / open it again.  Creo then starts up in a nearly full window, and teh blank sidebar is gone. any ideas?

I am using Windchill Risk and Reliability Enterprise Edition (Formerly Relex) Release 11.1 and Datecode with CPS F000 Um die die aktuelle Version installieren zu können, wird für die Migration der Datenbank die Version 11 benötigt laut PTC Support.

PrimeConnect is also by request now a python library that connects python engineering applications with PTC Mathcad Prime. It allows python programs to generate editable Prime worksheets,  and retrieve Mathcad calculated results as native python and numpy objects.What is still needed is a brief manual on how to use it, but it is simple.CheersTerry

A PTC Mathcad Prime XML Writer in C++File created with PrimeWriter v1.1 Alpha, an Embracadero RAD Studio 12 C++ Builder program. Program creates a rudimentary worksheet as a starting point.  It is intended for further enhancement to create more elaborate worksheetsStarted with a simple request of ChatGPT"create a PTC Mathcad Prime file that creates variables a and b of 3 and 5 respectively and adds them together for variable c."This started a week long Monday to Sunday, long hours each day focused chat with chatGPT and has produced a simple programmable worksheet generator in C++. It has some functions already defined; operators +,-,/,* sqrt, sin, cos, tan, exp, pow, nthroot, max, min, atan2, lsolve, concat, det, trace, rank, eigenvals, augment, and submatrix. Adding a new Prime function type only takes two lines of code. So more will be added over time.  Greek symbols can be used.It is intended as a quick visual report writing method for my C++ FEM work.The new advantage is C++ progra
