Kindly help me how to make this bend in creo.  Developed part Bend part

If i create a part(.pkg) i get a geo resolution of 1.0E-6 mm.But when i import a part to creo, for example in .step, always get a geo reolution arround 1.6E-2 mm.The company that i work for as a module that allows me to compare the active part to the database, and returns me the part with more similarity. But this only work if a the part has a geo resolution of 1.0E-6 mm.Is any way to work arround this? i want to use this module with imported parts, but i cant becouse i have a geo res of 1.6E-2 mm. Creo Elements Direct 20.2.1.0

Is there a way to show offset lines in exploded views in Creo View 5.1?  The Exploded view seems to publish fine, but the offset lines do not show up even when all construction geometry features are checked in the config settings (see below).

Hi, For detailing, we use to set overall .dtl setup only for whole file. In that case can we change or set that .dtl. file for each sheet separately to control the parameters in each sheets? For ex:. For sheet1 -setup 1.dtl, For sheet2-setup2.dtl.  --Mani

Hi, I'm trying to parse drawing files for a laser cutting machine and change the simplified representation for bent parts using Jlink. What am I doing wrong? I tried solid.Display(), drawing.display(),manually adding simpRep before view.SetSimpRep() with drawing.AddSimpRep(). Here is my code: Drawing drawing = (Drawing) window.GetModel(); WView2D view2D = (WView2D) drawing.List2DViews().get(0); Solid solid = (Solid) drawing.ListModels().get(0); ModelItems modelItems = solid.ListItems(ModelItemType.ITEM_SIMPREP); if (modelItems != null) { for (int i=0; i < modelItems.getarraysize(); i++) { if (modelItems.get(i).GetName().endsWith("FLAT_REP")) { SimpRep simpRep = (SimpRep) modelItems.get(i); logMessage(simpRep.GetName()); //drawing.AddSimplifiedRep(simpRep); //drawing.DeleteSimplifiedRep(simpRep); SimpReps simpReps = drawing.ListSimplifiedReps(solid); for (int k=0; k<simpReps.getarraysize(); k++) { logMessage("REPs " + simpReps.get(k).GetName()); } logMessage("C

Martin,   I am trying to setup IFX on a network.  I believe I have everything setup correctly but get a similar error to the one above.  Using your solution and running IFX through the creo load point, everything works fine just like in this post.  The problem I have is when I point the IFX configuration PATH_ABS_LIBRARY to my network location I get the hole_com.cpp error.  Can you help with this?

I am developing a sheet to calculate section properties of steel sections using Mathcad Prime 10, however I find the integration gives zero value for web thickness less than a number for my specific example.  see below screenshot and attached file. The Ay gives correct area, however the Ax doesn't. I have tried different values for tw which gives a correct result when it is larger than a certain number. For example in the I section if changed to 30mm, the integral gives correct answer.  Appreciate any help please. 

How do I get combined state view states tabs to appear in the main display of Creo View if it is possible. I have Creo Parametric 11 and Creo View 10.1. 

So when importing large step assemblys as parts there will always be lots of errors and it will take hours.If its not a complete faliure meaning  "could not construct geometry",  there will at least always be transitions between parts that doesnt work,, and  the model will be a mix of solids and surfaces and very heavy to use.But when importing step as assembly keeping the parts intact as they were make from the source. There is almost never a problem.Is there no way to import as part and make the individual parts as bodies so Creo doesnt have to construct new impossible geometry ?For example Assembly with 10 parts will be Part with 10 bodys.

I have a Prime calculation that takes days to run--it's a complicated integration.  If I halt the calculation using the "Stop All Calculations" function on the Calculation tab, save the sheet, then return to that sheet later and re-activate "Auto Calculation" I believe the calculation will continue from where it was halted, even if the file was closed and reopened.  My question is whether or not this halt/save/continue does in fact continue the calculation rather than restarting it.  If I select the "Calculate" option the sheet will definitely start over from the beginning, but that's not what I'm asking about.  I can't submit the sheet due to corporate limitations but the question is general enough someone should have worked it out by now.

Hello. I have a table that generates two sets of info.One is the actual design forces, and another is a minimum.I want the maximum from each case.For the 8" wall I want it to give me 10 psf and for the 12" wall I'd like it to give me 15 psf.I have googled but no luck.  I can create a max function but it gives me the maximum of all four numbers. There a way to do this? 

I'm working in Creo 11 and I have a fairly simple part, but I was trying to demonstrate a few concepts.   I'd like to have a family table of a part.  This part has 4 dimensions that will vary between nominal, MMC and LMC with the tolerance being a parameter.   I was hoping to write an expression that the MMC part was nominal + &tol and the LMC part was nominal - &tol, and I'd like to change the tolerance as a parameter.  I've used the excel table in the family table - but I wanted to verify that I'm not missing a better option.    

HP computer and printer are working properly with other applications.When I try to print a Prime 10 workshheet with colored plot traces, all are Black.Used HP Smartfriend service and we found the problem only happens with the installed Prime 10.Seems that I have done something stupid recently: I am 89.When I try to print, my HP Elite 7200 printer does does not show a color option.Could there be Adobe problems? Do I need to re-install Prime 10?

Hi communityI am interested in simulating the separation of bodies. In effect, I am tearing one body from the other.The two bodies have different materials, and bonded contact between the bodies.I create the separation using displacement constraint. In this situation, the elements continue to be connected between the bodies and do not "disconnect" during the separation process. What am I doing wrong?Does anyone have a recommendation on how to simulate this? Thanks in advance.

The entire assembly of vehicle is 120mb. Spin lag, slow machine.Step of same: 46mb, still spin lag..asm of above step: 1mbShrinkWrap of the .asm: 1.7mbWHAT IS THE CORRECT PROCESS TO  lightweight the huge ASM MODEL? How can I achieve a super light file. ?

Hello everyone, I am solving mass and energy balances for a CSTR using odesolve in a solve block in Mathcad Prime 10. The system includes species balances and an energy balance with the heat of the reaction. However, the solver is not working.Are there specific issues with my guess values, constraints, or equation setup that I should check? Any guidance on properly structuring odesolve would be helpful.Thanks!

Sorry, I don't know how to get the Vadl value? Could anyone help me please?

I've not been able to locate anywhere on how to remove a concurrent user from a floating license pool of licensing using the FLEXnet Admin. Also when I go to the Administrator section of the FLEXnet Admin tool it is asking for a administrator login, however I'm not sure what login information to use because it is not accepting my PTC login information or my server administrator login, so I'm not sure why this is not working. Please provide any insight or advice on this.

I have a sheet metal part with punches and die-formed features. Does PTC Creo offer a way to calculate the blank size or developed length for this part to determine the required raw material? I know other CAD software packages have functionalities for generating flattened or developed patterns. Is this capability available in Creo 7?

Hi,I'm currently using Creo 9. I'm trying to make a drafted Hole as Datum B using GD&T Advisor. First, it only gives options to add Datum Targets as "Targets" tab turns red (see Image 1). After going in to the Target tab, I'm able to select "User-Defined Axis" option and then select the axis of the said hole. However, this option doesn't allow me to use position/perpendicular geometric characteristic for tolerance. The only available options are Straightness, Circularity, Profile of Surface & Angularity (see Image 2). I'm looking for a right way to add a position/perpendicularity tolerance w.r.t Datum A (bottom surface of the block). 

Creo 10 I have been tasked with providing restricted values for parameters based on my material selection.Example, if I select 1018 CRS, I only want my "finish" parameter restricted values to be powdercoat / black oxide If I select 6061 aluminum, I want my "finish" parameter restricted to clear anodize / black anodize. My 1st attempt, your able to create material parameters for individual materials. However, if you create restricted values for material parameters, the restricted values do not save with the material file. If this worked each material would be able to have its very own set of "Finish" parameter values and this is all I'm after. My 2nd attempt, was to have each material having its own special parameter. EX.... 1018_Finish, 6061_Finish. Then have a restricted variable file grab the appropriate information. This worked, however I need my drawings to be populated with a &Finish. I thought adding a IF exist function in my relations would cover thi

I have a user who is trying to tabulate changes to a sketch dimension, and the resultant values on other sketch dimensions. I have tried making family table instances where the lower dimension increments but repeat region table can only capture family table elements, not other affected model results not in the family table. looking for options.Users sketch

I downloaded windows on my mac. I then tried to buy the Mathcad Prime 10 Student Edition for $63/year. However, it just took me to Mathcad Express Free Download when I clicked on it. I finally downloaded it, and then I had to login and provide my product code. I don't have a product code because I never bought anything, but I clicked on the $63/year plan and it never charged me so I don't really know what to do or where to go from here.

Hello, New user to Prime 9, moving from V15. V15 had an option for regions to "push regions down as you type", does prime 9 have an equivalent?   

We're using Creo 9.0.9.0 to import STEP files saved by Catia 3DExperience R2018x. Whenever we import an assembly we get the child parts added in with the filename as <part number in catia>_000. The _000 isn't shown in the STEP file when opened in a text editor, so I have no idea where it has come from. Is there any way to turn this off? Many thanks!
