I have a subordinate UDF that creates a set of features including an extrusion.  One of the extrusion dimensions is set as a variable dimension in the UDF and has a prompt assigned.   When the UDF is inserted, user is not prompted for the dimension.  instead, the existing value is used.  

Hi everyone,I am trying to activate a trial license for PTC Mathcad Prime 10.0.1.0 from Express, but I am unable to obtain the license.I successfully logged into my PTC account and completed the License Wizard. However, when I click "Acquire License", I receive the following message:"Error in License Processing. Please contact PTC License Management."No additional details are provided.I am using Mathcad Prime 10.0.1.0 on Windows and trying to activate the free trial version. I have already verified my email address and can log into my PTC account without any issues.Has anyone experienced a similar problem?Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How do I save a file from the full trial so that it is possible to open it in the Express version?ll trial so that it is possible to open it in the Express version?

I need help with the movement of a carousel. Does anyone have any idea how to make different parts move up and down while the carousel is rotating?

HiI am experiencing a visualization issue in Creo Ansys Simulation. (12.4.2.0)The simulation completes successfully and the result legend/color scale is displayed correctly. However, when viewing the results, the part is displayed as a wireframe and the contour plot (fringe colors) is not shown on the geometry.The issue occurs across all simulation types and result types that I have tested.An interesting observation is that when I start a result animation, the contour colors immediately appear and are displayed correctly during the animation. Once the animation stops, the model returns to the wireframe-only display.Has anyone encountered this behavior before?Thanks 

I’ve been revisiting Mathcad after some time away, and I had a question about functionality that used to exist in older versions.Back when I was using Mathcad 15, I remember being able to plot vector fields (for example, visualizing a 2D vector function with arrows over a grid) fairly directly using the built-in plotting tools.Now that PTC Mathcad Prime has been around for a while and has gone through multiple updates, I’m wondering:Does the current version of Mathcad Prime support vector field plotting natively? If not, is there any recommended or standard workaround within Mathcad Prime (without exporting to other tools)? Has this feature been intentionally removed, or is it something planned for future releases?I’m especially interested in workflows comparable to what was possible in Mathcad 15, where defining a vector-valued function and visualizing it didn’t require too much manual construction.Would appreciate any insights from those who’ve worked with both versions

Hi all,I'm working on a Windchill-integrated template library for Creo Parametric (currently on Creo 8, i am updating to 12). The setup is a web-based app (HTML + JavaScript using Pro/Web.Link) that displays a catalog of assembly templates stored in Windchill and allows users to insert them into an active assembly The core problem:When a user selects a template from the catalog, the app needs to do a recursive "Save As" of the entire template hierarchy — renaming every template-owned component to a new order-specific name — before assembling it. This is necessary because each insertion must be independent and order-specific (e.g., MY_PART_0001_CC1234 instead of the original MY_PART_TEMPLATE_CC0000).In Creo 8 we used a Rename → Save → Rename-back pattern via the API (pfcModel.Rename, pfcModel.Save), which worked well:Check out the template root (pulling all children via CheckoutMultipleObjects with includeDependencies = true) Build a bottom-up dependency graph Rename each model to its n

We have defined three datums:A - a planar surface with a flatness requirement B - a single hole, perpendicular to A C - a slotTo account for the "ISO Bug" (Annex I in ISO 5459:2024) , we want to use the position tolerance (see red box) with a DRF of A|(B-C) instead of A|B|C.But somehow Creo GD&T Advisor does not let us create that DRF via the “Establish DRF” functionality: Is it possible to create custom DRF in GD&T advisor?

Hi, I am trying to create a shock model with spring and damping parameter which include compression damping and rebound damping. as Creo allows us one damping i tried by give the user defined force as damping with domine condition, but still i couldn’t find a proper way to execute it on user defind force reference point and measure parameter creation referencecan any one help me in this asap.

I am using Creo View Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.0.0 When I open .pvz file larger than 500MB in Creo View Lite 8.0.0.0 Build 27, I get an out-of-memory error, even if the memory limit for the Lite version is 16GB. The error appears immediately after I see the 3D model fully loaded. With the same file my colleagues have no loading problems. They use the same version of Creo View Lite. Here are the errors that I faced: Insufficient memory Creo View Lite has reached its maximum memory limit and will be closed. To view the data, use a version of the product with the Massive Assembly license option. Original, in italian: Memoria insufficiente Creo View Lite ha raggiunto il limite massimo di memoria e verrà chiuso. Per visualizzare i dati, utilizzare una versione del prodotto con l'opzione di licenza Massive Assembly.

I can’t figure out how to adjust the scale of the y-axis.  Is this possible? (see screen capture) 

It’s easy to add the vertical line marker - but now I can’t delete it.  How is this normally accomplished? 

I have created an Excel document in which I calculated the start and end coordinates for strips. The total number of strips is 23. I generated the strip data using table options in Mathcad.Now, I want to perform the same calculation for strip start and end coordinates directly in Mathcad. Please refer to the calculation used in cell F42 in Excel. How can I replicate this equation in Mathcad? 

As shown in the image below, I have defined a pipe spec that has a particular color assigned to it (in this case, green). This spec is shown to be this way in the associated Pipe Spec Directory file as well. However, despite all of this, the pipe keeps showing up as blue! I’ve updated the pipe model and regenerated the assembly but nothing seems to work. What might be causing this issue? 

Hi,Would anyone know how to prevent Creo 10 from creating cap surfaces for tapped holes while using the Creo Parametric Hole feature?The surface shown in the image below is not the side wall of the thread but a cap surface at the top of the thread.  This makes you have to query select the hole which is an extra step when assembling parts to the tapped hole at the top-level assembly.Thanks for any help you can provide,Don A  

Creo Version: Creo 10.0.8.0 and Creo 12.4.4.0.I’m trying to figure out where the metrics files are being written.It looks like files are being written somewhere.   But Windows 11 search is terrible, so it can’t fine files I can see with my eyes.I have the config_init.mc option set as follows.DIR_METRICS    C:\ptc\mc_out\mc_metrics DIR_METRICS_NT C:\ptc\mc_out\mc_metrics DIR_REPORT_NT    C:\ptc\mc_out\mc_report (This works, so I know I have write permission)Image from ModelCHECK configuration tool shows files are being written somewhere.  (probably) 

Hi everyone,We've recently started using Creo 13 and noticed something about the AI assistant feature. In the demos and presentations, the AI assistant provides really impressive answers — but when we try it ourselves, it doesn't seem to generate any responses, and it doesn't appear to be running as a beta version either.Do we need to do something specific to enable the beta version, or is it simply not available yet and we need to wait?We have customers who are expecting this feature based on what they've seen in the demos, so we want to make sure we're not delivering an incomplete solution. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Why are new features already introduced in Creo Parametric 12.4.2 and 12.4.3 listed as new in Creo Parametric 13.4.0? 

Hi everyone,I am working on a cabling harness design in Creo Parametric. I successfully created a main bundle using the "Along Path" option. Now, I need to create a Branch Bundle that splits off to the right from this main thick bundle.When I select Bundle > Create > Branch, the Menu Manager asks me to "Select 2 items." and forces the selection filter strictly to "Location".However, when I try to select the required locations, it does not allow me to complete the selection or choose the second point correctly to define the branching direction along the network. The network paths for both the main trunk and the branches are already defined, and the wires are routed.Could someone please guide me on the exact selection sequence or share what might be blocking the second item selection in this step?
