Hello,Is there a way to create a symbol from a saved sketch?I have a sketch that I saved as “.sec” file.Then when I go to create a symbol (Define Symbol), there is no option that I could find to import the .sec file to create my symbol.

Issue background - We have model view on drawing. We want to add Text mentioning specific location in view. When we add text on model view, it is not hiding background model view lines.Also we dont have functionality for Text with white background in Creo drawings.Workaround test - Failed1) Using Hatched Square added on view with white fill color.With this lines still show in Creo drawing as well as exported PDF. 2) Using Symbol of hatched square filled with white color. With this lines gets hidden in Creo drawing but in exported pdf, lines still shows.

Hello,I am new to developing custom functions for Mathcad Prime.I already managed to create a working custom function in C, but I still cannot understand how to do the same in C++.To be honest, I do not understand the internal structure of Visual Studio C++ projects yet. I am learning step by step and using AI to help me understand the code and project structure.My goal is to move large engineering calculations from Mathcad into C++ DLL libraries. I hope to use AI to help convert my Mathcad algorithms into C++, but first I need to understand how a working C++ custom function project is organized.At the moment I cannot even create a very simple function like:int add(int a, int b){    return a + b;}I am not asking anyone to write my project for me.I would simply like to have a minimal Visual Studio C++ project that builds into a DLL and is recognized by Mathcad Prime. Even a project containing only one simple function would be enough.Once I have one working example, I believe I will be a

Hi,how can I add the default bend radius in the bend notes? I want to add the default sheet metal bend radius at all notes and for all the feature drawing that I’ll do.Maybe I have do modify a config.pro command? Thank you! Michele Barile 

Hello everyone,I am working as design engineer & using pro program frequently.I want to explore the advanced options available in pro program as presently I am using basic level of program. Where can I found the training videos or content to study. with regards,Thanoj Kumar        

I have purchased a new computer because my old computer can not be updated to windows 11. I have Mathcad 14, #15, Mathcad Prime 3.1 on my old computer. I want to put them on my new computer and my question is whether I can copy the files to a usb drive and put them onto my new computer? Or cand is download the from and old download file? Or do I new to get a new download from PTC?Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

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

Hi everyone,I am setting up a Random Vibration analysis in Creo Simulate and I am running into an issue regarding Measures. It appears that none of the measures I create are available for selection or evaluation within this specific analysis type.Specifically, I need to output the following two quantities: Failure Index: I need to track the failure index across the random vibration analysis, but it does not appear as an option. Stresses in a custom coordinate system: some standard stress components are available, but they are strictly tied to the global coordinate system. I need to evaluate direct stresses relative to a user-defined, local coordinate system. Is there a specific workflow or workaround required to enable custom measures, or to evaluate failure indices and localized stresses, for a random vbration analysis?Any insights or step-by-step guidance would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance,

When routing piping (specifically extending piping), it appears that the "To Plane/Point" and "Parallel to Axis/Edge/Pipe Segment" options in the drop-down list are grayed out, as shown below:This also appears to have been a previously noted issue (as shown in this Article - CS96331) that has yet to be resolved. Is the cause of this issue yet known?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.9.0How to create drawing template in HMX. Is there any option to apply sort and filter in data tables generated by HMX. After generating flattened harness drawing how to change orientation of connector.

Hello, I'm having a problem with the dimension background. I want the hatch background to cover the hatch. Unfortunately, this can't be set, and the hatching under the dimension is still visible. I'm working in Creo 10.

Hi folks,I’m running Creo Parametric Educational Edition 12.4.0.0. and I’m having issues with my config.pro file.I’m trying to turn on “tol_display” so that I don’t have to manually turn it on every time I create a drawing. Up to this point I go into the Configuration Editor make my change, export the updated file to the “C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 12.4.0.0\Common Files\text” folder but nothing happens. Whenever I create a new drawing, I have to manually turn on tol_display for that session. Inside the new config.pro file it’s set to “tol_display yes”.So why isn’t Creo reading the updated configurations from Config.pro?

Hi All,Is it possible using ProMdlCombStateCreate routine to set different visibility styles(show, blank, wireframe, etc) for several solid object (prt, asm) in the model as in the interactive CREO session?Thanks.

I’m developing with Creo 5.0 TOOLKIT. I need to create cables and conductors programmatically. I found that higher versions provide ProCableAndConductorsCreate, but it's not available in Creo 5.0.I noticed ProCablesFromLogicalAllCreate can create all missing cables from logical references. Is there a way to use it (or other functions) to achieve the same “create a single cable with conductors” effect, without relying on a full logical import? Or must I stick with the combination of ProCableCreate and ProCableconductorCreate?Any suggested workflow or code examples would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

We recently moved from Creo Parametric 9 to 12 and me and several colleagues have an issue with dimensioning in sketcher. Sometimes I have to retry multiple times  to create a dimension between lines/ points etc. The mouse does snap but sometimes the dimension is just not created and nothing happens. Does anyone recognize this and has a possible solution?

I’m trying to run a validation case in Creo 12 Flow Analysis based on the first example in the link below, but I can’t seem to reproduce the same results shown in the example:https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/r11.0/usascii/index.html#page/simulate/cfd/TurbulentFlow.html#The pipe is designed with an inner radius of 2 mm and a length of 2000 mm.In Flow Analysis, I define the inlet (IN) with a velocity of V = 50 m/s, and the outlet (OUT) as a specified pressure outlet of 0 Pa.The air density is set to 1.225 kg/m3 and the dynamic viscosity to 1.7894e-5 Pa·s.To display the mass-averaged total pressure difference directly as a graph, I use the following expression:plot.MassAvgTotP_Loss = flow.mpt@IN - flow.mpt@OUT#plot.MassAvgTotP_Loss: Mass Avg Tot P Loss IN-OUT [Pa]However, my results are significantly different from the values stated in the example. I get approximately 21,970 Pa difference between the inlet and outlet, while the example shows a pressure drop of 0.73 Pa.What am I

the image is related. whenever i try to open the file it shows this blank screen. I’m new to creo student edition and don’t know much. I was previously an onshape user. i had made backups and made sure to save it a couple of times before closing. The random save i did while sketching is visible for some reason but none of my extrusions are visible.i scanned all my pc’s recent files to see if i had accidently saved it somewhere else too but its to no luck. The sketch from the above mentioned case is not fully visible too. 

Hello, I'm having trouble developing a loop that includes break and return statements for buckling analysis. I'm also having trouble generating a combo list for the K values.  

Hi   We want to know which section is used in Flange (I, Arc, S , Open Etc...) using toolkit... Could not find any direct API for same. So , thought of using element tree. Is there any element which stores this predefined shape name for flange feature element tree?    Created a flange feature with I section, extracted element tree in XML. Modified flange as S section and extracted again element tree... Both the XML files are same so getting confused on how to identify which element is storing this information. If no element is there for this, is there any possibility to decide on this information?

Bonjour à tous,J’ai un sujet à vous soumettre.En conception j’utilise beaucoup les tables de familles pour faire varier les pièces similaires et j’incorpore également ces tables à mes mises en plans pour le lancement en fabrication. Exemple : Pièce A ==> 3 TROUS Ø10 espacés de 100 mm; Pièce B ==> 4 TROUS Ø10 espacés de 25 mm. En général, dans ma table de famille j’ajoute un paramètre chaine (STRING), disons C, pour lequel j’indique alors pour la pièce A, 2x100=200 et pour la pièce B, 3x25=75. Ainsi je peux coter le générique, peu importe le nombre de trous puisque je crée une cote 2d nommée C entre le premier et le dernier trou. Jusqu’alors, le paramètre C est renseigné manuellement pour chaque instance et est donc sujet à erreur. Si vous m’avez suivi, vous avez compris ce que je veux faire !Dans la formule 2x100=200 ==> 2=itos(P#-1); 100=rtos(d#); 200=rtos((P#-1)*(d#)).Malheureusement, je n’ai pas encore trouvé la bonne syntaxe ou la bonne manière de faire pour obtenir le par
