CAD

Prime 10 I'm trying to use Mathcad's symbolic calculations, and it is not simplifying my expressions properly.   See below for an example: if I use the full equation, it does not simplify anything inside of the parentheses, but if I separate that section out and calculate it as its own entity, it simplifies everything correctly.  Why is it simplifying if I split it out, but not if I have everything together?What steps can I take to get Mathcad to fully simplify the full expression?Thank you

Hi  I want to write a function for how the weight changes along depth. I have attached a worksheet (prime 7) which describes what I want to achieve.  Thanks for all support! 

I have a perpetual license to install MATCAD 15. But since the file was attached to an MSN hotmail email, it disappeared along with the hotmail. How can I reinstall MATHCAD 15?

Hello, I am looking for help. My creo license was working fine 5 days ago and suddenly today i cant even get to the installation software on the PTC website. I had to re-install my creo parametrics because it was crashing every time I put my license key in.I would be grateful if someone could help me as soon as possible. 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.5.0I would like to change the bend_order table note information in the drawing. Is it possible?

I want to view a model as a wire frame with hidden lines in Creo View Express, but with black lines rather than the kaleidoscope of colours the model is in when I open it in Creo View Express. I've tried following the instructions on this help page:https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/view/r9.0/en/index.html#page/creo_view/visualization/shared/To_Edit_Color.html#wwID0ECMGS I've selected everything in the model .A Model Parts tab appears on the ribbon, but there's no Color tool on the toolbar. The model I'm opening comes as an edz file.

Is there a way to pan my view of the model left/right/up/down using the keyboard in Creo View Express? Is there a way to rotate using the keyboard? I've found out how to zoom using the keyboard (Ctrl + for zoom in, Ctrl - for zoom out) but panning and rotating escapes me.

Seems that the Product Code has been missing in several post here. Is there anyone, who has actually managed to get the Product Code? 

The Connection Analysis tool allows me to check for how surfaces connect with each other. I can analyze a quilt and look at the edges between surfaces to see if they match up in position, tangency, curvature and acceleration. the last three are quite obvious. Wheich edges are tangential and which are not? But the first one is a bit strange. If I have a quilt, and no one-sided edges, and it can solidify, obviously it's a closed quilt. But I can still analyze it and see that it has edges with a position error more than zero. It may even have edges with a position error more than the accuracy of the part. You'd think such a thing would cause problems, but it doesn't, necessarily. Creo still highlights the edge as two-sided and I may still solidify the quilt. I'm guessing Creo is checking the edge of one surface against the corresponding edge on the other and looks at the difference, and due to the inexact nature of the mathematics here, it's not going to be exactly the same. The

  Mathcad Prime (MP) 10 starts to become unusably slow after switching between Mathcad and other applications (even Character Map or its own windows (eg, right-click context or worksheet list drop-down).    It usually manifests as unresponsiveness after switching back to Mathcad from another app.  Mathcad will freeze, unfreeze, and then freeze again before resuming normal service.  At the moment, though Mathcad is just cycling through freezes and won't let me do anything (including saving the active worksheet).   It seems to happen quicker when I have multiple worksheets open, even if those worksheets do not require saving or have any edit actions that might need undoing.   It happened in the initial MP 10 and in MP 10.0.1.0, but I've noticed it more in MP 10.0.1.0.     Stuart   Edited to add:  My Dell laptop doesn't appear to be overly strained during these freezes.  

Is it possible to call input from other mathcad sheet?Like in the first one we have the input and the second sheet has the equations. With out the need to repeat the data in the second sheetCombining/merging both of them without the need to repeat the data thanks in advanceYusra

Is there a way to pan my view of the model left/right/up/down using the keyboard in Creo View Express? Is there a way to rotate using the keyboard? I've found out how to zoom using the keyboard (Ctrl + for zoom in, Ctrl - for zoom out) but panning and rotating escapes me. I've tried searching the help and even Googling, but I can't find the answer.

Curious.. is there a way to stop the layer tree from expanding itself? I find it annoying to constantly have to minimize this tree, as it seem to always want to pop up to be seen.. Not sure why it needs to constantly pop back up after a few commands.. but it does..  Covers the model tree to the point I need to scroll down in the model tree to get back to where I was (part or feature..) I assume it's because it has a 'self esteem' issue..

Hi,I have an old MCAD 15 program I am finally converting to prime.  Is there a short efficient way to implement those if statements in prime?  That VP is an intermediate variable used further down in the program.  Below is a snip showing the if statements.  thanks,russ 

Hey guys,  I hope there is a better answer than "not possible" (using creo 4.0) My company is new to MBD, I am detailing a very large complex weldment. I am creating the tabs, comb-states, sections, details etc. but one thing I have noticed that is driving me nuts is I cannot add a jog to the leader lines. For the weld callouts, annotations or the notes. This only applies in the 3d space. I know how to add jogs and breaks in 2d space. But cannot seem to find a work around that is quick enough to justify the effort. The image attached is just one example of why I want a jog, so I am not dragging the leader across the entire feature.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.11.0I am trying to add a weight per piece column into our bill of material in the repeat region on our drawing format. I successfully added a column that pulls from our weight parameter in the part but when I add the summation to the repeat region for total weight it only adds the weight per piece once and is not taking into account the quantity of the part.I also would like to know if it is possible to put this summation into a different table in the drawing that is not part of the repeat region. I tried adding the summation string to another table in the drawing but it does not work like intended. I can type the parameter into the drawing manually and it adds it but not permanently in the format.Lastly would like to make it so that the balloons are always set to "QTY SPLIT" when making a new drawing instead of having to change it.

When I try to run the program, I get this error message. The MAC address in the license file agrees with the network adapter 1 which is selected in the VM. How to fix?  

After use tool Isometric in Modify tab, I create rectangle and have error like that. Please help me how to do to be normal.

In Creo 10 Flow Analysis, when I try to create a mesh for analysis with a model containing 3 or more domains, the meshes for some domains are not generated.Also, the I/F between domains is not recognized.In our previous use of Flow Analysis in Creo 7, a mesh was generated for all domains in a model with up to 7 domains and all inter-domain I/Fs were identified.(We are not aware of the maximum allowable number of domains.)Using this previous model used in Creo 7 Flow Analysis, or creating another new model, does not work in Creo 10 Flow Analysis.Note that even in Creo 10's Flow Analysis, mesh generation and inter-domain I/F identification is still possible for up to two domains.Is there any special way to handle equal or more than 3 domains in Creo 10 Flow Analysis?thanks

Creo parametric 10.0 use proxy connect to externet Windchill fail.It only jump proxy authorization,can't give us windchill authorization.How can I config Creo?

I am using Creo Simulate in Creo 9.0.3.0I am having an issue during analysis of structural components using frictionless contact interfaces. The issue is that the defined contact interfaces are occasionally ignored during the analysis process. I have started 2 analyses at the same time with the same mesh and had this issue in only one of them. I have been having this issue in multiple, completely unrelated models.

Creo Schematics 10 and 11 crashes when trying to export a pdf of the design sheets. We are able to reproduce this in an empty design with two sheets. We have narrowed it down to the formats that we have been using for years. Creo Schematics 4.0 does not have this problem exporting with our current designs and the attached test design. The Event Viewer in Microsoft shows Faulting module name: DL180PDFL.dll, version: 18.0.4.3, time stamp: 0x62a673dd.  Note, that PTC start template that ships with the tool does not have this issue so please test with the attached files. We are unable to update until this issue gets resolved.  I am concern that this will impact other customers that have custom design templates (formats).

In Creo Parametric, it is possible to select the "seed and boundary" surfaces of any given model. My stakeholders are asking me to color in great detail for the media we create in Creo illustrate and it is extremely tedious because one must select all the faces individually. Coloring in Creo parametric is more ideal and I cannot control engineering who are giving me models with nonsensical colors. It is up to my team to color the model and we need the function in creo illustrate to select surfaces more quickly based on seed and boundary or like Maya where you can just glide your cursor over the surface to color them. Anything would be better than what is currently available to color at the face level in creo illustrate.

Following @DJNewman 's message on the topic of implicit vectorization of range variable being removed from Mathcad Prime 10, I looked at the referenced support article CS416474.   The resolution to the "problem" was to use a range-to-vector conversion program.   Note that I use the term "vectorize" in the mathematical sense of "convert a matrix to a vector" rather than the programming sense of carrying out operations in parallel (e.g., Mathcad's vectorize operator).   The suggested function Range2Vec is similar to one I usually use (vec) except that instead of stack it uses indexing to add new elements to the constructed vector.   I vaguely recall that stacking is inefficient time-wise compared to indexing, so I thought it would be interesting to see how the two variants compared.   Then I thought, "Hey, why stop at two mousetraps? Let's build some more to see if anything hits paydirt".   So, I played with a few variants and conclu
