Hi Is there any option to check if a model has been used in Simulate? I could think of a parameter or an icon (like if Mathcad is embedded) or similar. Background: We use ModelCHECK to check for weak dimensions in sketches. Eventually we found weak dimensions in sketches of surfaces splits within Simulate. Currently it seems one has to switch to Simulate to check for non-compliant features. Thanks, ziegi

I can set up a new table add the repeat region and add in the "file path" (no clue what you call it) to each cell. ex. terminal information  - mbr.terminal  For the entry ports/pin I found this file path on youtube mbr.connprm.pin.name. when I first make the harness I designate the connector and assign each entry port a coordinate system to work of off and then add in the entry port when I designate each connector. It also looks like other things aren't working either like if I wanted the wire color or the wire gauge going to the connector. I know I'm missing something I just can't figure out what.

Hello,I would like to know if annotations can be exported inside of simulate result *.pvs file.We use *.pvs results very ofter but not all people in our company use creo simulate. So when there are many hydraulic cylinders and report doesn't have any reference of which one is which it is pretty hard to find excel reference in *.pvs model.How can i define a note which will be exported to *.pvs file where each hydraulic cylinder will have it's personal note.Expected output: 

Hey everyone,I've been working with Mathcad Prime 10 for a couple of months now, and I recently came across something that has me stuck. I’ve tried searching for a solution in multiple ways but haven’t been able to figure it out.In the equation I’m working with (in reference to the attached image), there is a right-facing arrow above the expression: concat( num2str( d/mm ), "mm" )I’d like to understand what this operator is called, it`s function, and how to insert it in Mathcad Prime 10. Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated! — Srikar

Hello,I have just started using Mathcad Prime 10.Does Explicit work with min and max functions, or I am doing something wrong?Please see below example screenshot. I'm sorry but I cannot attach the full example as it is too big and it is work related.I get "The unit are not compatible" error. GSKID is an Output expression from an excel component.Bs is extracted from a matrix. I have turned on Units/Constants in Symbols   

 

Hi,  We are changing our drawing format to change the layout.  Below is my VB code to set the drawing with a new format. The code only half worked. The new format could be applied, but the old format stayed.  I had been searching up and down and try to find if there was an option of "replace" but I couldn't find anything.  The online VB help about "IpfcDrawingFormat" has no help at allCan anyone please help? Dim currentDrawing As IpfcDrawing = CType(session.CurrentModel, IpfcDrawing) 'Replace format Dim NewFormatName As String = "new-d.frm" Dim frmDescr As IpfcModelDescriptor frmDescr = (New CCpfcModelDescriptor).CreateFromFileName(NewFormatName) Dim NewFormat As IpfcDrawingFormat NewFormat = session.RetrieveModel(frmDescr) Dim sheets As Integer Dim i As Integer Dim CurrentShtOwner As IpfcSheetOwner CurrentShtOwner = CType(currentDrawing, IpfcSheetOwner) sheets = CurrentShtOwner.NumberOfSheets For i = 1 To sheets CurrentShtOwner.SetSheetForm

Hello everyone,      I want to get a series of area data of a face, details are as follows:(1) the model is a square frustum, I want to get the area of the top face(Face 0, yellow face shown in the Figure 1) under different heights(distance between top face and bottom face, which is shown in Figure 2);(2) I created a plane(plane 1 in Figure 2) which is parallel to the top face, a sketch created on the plane is extruded to remove the all the entity above the plane, and then I can get the area of new top face(shown in Figure 3 and 4);(3) the plane moves along the y axis in certain step size, for example, d = 5mm, then I can get the area of top face in d=5, d=10,d=15..., besides, every time I get an area, I copy and paste it in a txt or word document.The problem is: If the height is very large and the step size is very small, for example d = 0.5mm, in this situation, I need to do the same action so many times, it’s very time-consuming and annoying, is there a way

Hello,How to fill the below area enclosed between y1(x), y2(x), y3(x), and y4(x), like below with purple?          

At the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) in Genoa, humanoid robots are no longer just science fiction, they’re being developed for tasks such as assisting human workers in factories and even flying into disaster zones. We head inside IIT’s robotics lab with Daniele Pucci, Head of Artificial and Mechanical Intelligence to wave hello to some of the robots and explore how these advanced machines could become an integral part of our world in the next decade.      

Why am I not able to get rid of that squares in red? It says fully constrained with no assumptions. Am I missing something? All degrees are arrested and still I see the square next to part in asm tree.! FRUSTRATING!!! 🙂

Hi Mathcad Community, I’m working on a problem involving a box cross-section. I need to plot the shear flow distribution q(y) along the height (y). The plot should be linear in the flanges and parabolic in the webs, but my current plot is a step function and doesn’t match the expected values. Can someone help me redefine q(y), and provide the correct Mathcad function to plot a continuous shear flow distribution?Thanks for your help! 

I want to present results in a table I created.But having the variable name showing when I want to display the results is really not convenient.Anyway around that other than hiding the name with a white box? I mean...It's Mathcad...  Not Paint... Thanks

Hello everybody,I set up the graphics_library_dir config.pro line to customize the Appearance Library in Creo Parametric 7.When I go into the aspects, the personal ones are all dark and the bookcase does not show any aspects.The customized folder and sub-folder structure is exactly the same as the standard files that are in Coommon Filles etc.Is there a way to set a different one? (see images 1, 2 ,3)   Matteo

When I try to define wariable, I get below error.An Unhandled exception occurred on the dispatcher thread.

Does a Design Exploration Session .tmu file capture a historical record of the design iterations within the Checkpoints even AFTER the session has been Accepted and then the models have been saved, i.e., are you able to open a DEX Session .tmu file and review the design progression, even after a Checkpoint was Accepted and saved to the models?  The testing I’ve done indicates that the .tmu does not accurately store this information but when I watch tutorials and read literature on DEX, everything seems to indicate that it should store the historical record. Am I missing something? Doing something incorrectly? I’ve attached a PDF with the steps that I executed to test/evaluate my question. Creo Version 11.0.2.0Windchill Release 13.0.2.2

Hello,After removing or moving circular cuts by using commands under flexible modeling tabs, axes of cuts remain at their old place. I know you can move surfaces with their respective axes, but I need a way to delete them rather than moving. It is not the case when you use remove as well. I tried to find those axes from layer tree but did not work either. You can create new axes where you move the old cuts/holes, yet I need the erase old ones. If the explanation is not crystal clear, I can provide images. I am using Creo 9.Thank you.

In Creo drawings - Tables with “Fixed Index” – these are for BOM’s where if you delete a component, that line in the BOM gets skipped.  My company is trying to use this, but it is very quirky.  It often reverts back to previous BOM Item numbers.  Is there a best practice doc?  We’re trying to use Region rather than each Record.  I assume someone is using this successfully?

Hi,  We are using "Isofont.ndx" in our drawings. But we need to export them to PDF with Truetype font. I can chose the option to force it to use Truetype font but the default font is "Arial" and it is too wide.  Can anyone help how to change this default setting to another type of narrower font?  Thanks

Does Creo have a weld symbol for stud welds?  If so where is it located?  I have looked in the weld application under spot weld but I do not see anything.

hello, I am stuck on cutting this profile on the sphere by sweep command but another hand in solid work this cut feature is so simple just like 123 and done... I need to know how to make this cut in creo...please check the pic and videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mpd3U3dI2BU&t=9s time at 7:00 to 8:00 minutes.

I am using Creo 10.0.7.0 and I was used to taking my measurements without the measure tool on the fly for simple things to enhance productivity and speed. Is there someway I can make this happen in CREO?An example I already have a shortcut on the pop up menu but it's easier if I just click an edge or two faces and get an output immediately on the information on the message log.It already gives me outputs from the measure tool to the message log as shown below.I want it toGive priority to 'distance' and show distance in the message log, not perimeter or just show both.Output length every time I have selected an edge,Output radius each time I have selected a circle/arc,Output distance each I have selected two planes that are parallel to each other.Is it possible to have this in message log or someplace else?

  Global Interference(SKIPPED)  GLOBAL_INTFGlobal interference ran within 1 days. SKIPPEDwhy this is happeing in a model with a interference or without it as well

I created the assembly and parts using creo parametric student version. When I open and press the edit button for hatch. It gives an error which I attach as a screenshot and then the creo crashes closing all the windows. Previously I was able to edit from assembly or part 3d model enivrment. The first time I got this error when I tried to edit the hatch in the drawing environment and after then I am not able to edit it in either the environments.This appears from pressing the hatch edit button from the design tree in the sections part. Thank you for your help in advance. Regards

Hello everyone, how are you all doing?I’d like to pass over some buttons (manual created) in Creo 8 to creo 7, but I haven’t been able to find any shortcuts associated with them in the configuration. I also tried replicating the same configuration and toolbar setup in Creo 7, but the buttons didn’t show up at all. I found a folder containing the button image and a .res file, but I’m unsure how to implement these in Creo 7.What would you recommend I do?
