Hello All, Software Version: PTC Creo Parametric  9.0.3.0 We are trying to use the repeat region of a drawing table to input assembly data from left to right. However, the system default inputs this information from top to bottom.  Specifically, we have a cable assembly that is made up of a single cable and a terminal on both ends. I would like the repeat region to input the data horizontally rather than vertically. We are using the repeat region symbols:asm.nameasm.mbr.nameWe have tried the asm.mbr.name:1 or :2 to see if the code will have the individual part for the respective column but this did not populate. Is the below example possible, or will the system default always be a vertical entry and there is no possible way of changing it to horizontal? Want to have Table Example:Assembly PN          Cable PN         Terminal 1 PN          Terminal 2 PNAssembly 1  &nb

I am using the ANSI Flare Bevel weld symbol in PTC Creo 8.0.8.0, and there seems to be a large space between the flare bevel symbol and the flush and grind symbol. So much space that the flush and grind symbol hardly appears to be applied to the weld symbol.  Can this space be reduced relative to the rest of the symbol? Or maybe another solution? I've tried changing the font size, but this makes everything smaller. I've also tried the different weld symbols (simple, combination, braze, and ISO) but none of these options are a good solution.  Not looking for a solution involving adding a sketch line and/or Text Note.  Thanks for your time,Kevin 

Hello, I have created an MBD with several notes that contain a hyperlink to another combined view. People in the factory can click this link and the corrosponding view pops up. This works in Creo Parametric (10). However in Creo view it only works when you click the actual text instead of the text box. So for example the empty space inside an "O" is not clickable.Is there a way to fix this?

Hello, everyone. I am looking for a way to identify cabling/harness elements, specifically ".prt" type by using a repeat region.So far, by using "asm > mbr > type" it is possible to identify parts, assemblies and skeletons. By setting the repeat region to find certain properties in the parameters, I can identify sheet metal and piping components. But, I have not found a way to identify cabling parts. Yes, in my case I have them modeled from the cabling application. Yeah, I know there are some repeat regions configured to list cabling/harness properties, BUT I cannot enter 1 by 1 in the subassemblies and set them as primary model for my tables. Then: I need to find a way to identify cables from a master assembly or top level. It can be by invoking a parameter/properties to include in the repeat region that only cabling elements have. Or any other identifier.NO: at this stage of the project I cannot add a new string parameter saying it is a cable. I ha

Hi there ,I have a nested variable called x =[k v m] as shown in the screen shotI need to divide x by n  which means that each row in x will be divided by n >>> so k/n , v/n, and m/n>>>> the result should look like xThanks in advance

TLDR:  Is there a way for a table BOM balloon to have multiple leaders pointing to the correct objects? We have finally made the move to tables and balloons in our newly created assembly drawings.  It took  14.56 seconds after we went live for a user to bring up a scenario w/o an immediate solution. When we were creating dumb part number notes we would create a leader to each part in an assembly.  Example would be PEM fasteners in a plate of sheet metal.  If there were five of one part number in one location and six of another part number in another location, we would just put a leader to all items of a part number Now that we have moved over to balloons we are using split quantity balloons (image balloon_1.png).  To accomplish the same result we would need a balloon on each part.  In this case we would need 14 different balloons for the two part numbers.   What the user ended up doing is shown in balloon_2.png.  Get

Hello All, I am trying to recreate the solutions in Prime 10 to a 'characteristic equation' from a technical paper involving the Bessel functions.The equation to be solved is shown belowThe first 10 solutions is given as: However it appears that the solve block essentially just returns my inputs  I have removed all units as I recall in the older versions of Prime that units in the solve block tend result in errors. I have never had to use the Bessel functions, so I am not sure if I am overlooking something or making a simple error given how the equation is stated. Can anyone review and provide some guidance ?

Hi there, today, when I started Creo10, this message pop up: Why, the heck, does PTC Creo 10 require my location now? Has anyone experienced the same?

I have tried many different export options trying to keep my grouping hierarchy in Creo Illustrate. But anytime I import an FBX file, all objects are just pulled into the root object and groupings are lost. This is not the case with some other formats like DAE, but the file size is to large for the pipeline I am involved in.  I have prepared the FBX files in both Maya and Blender with the same results.  Does anyone know a process to keep the hierarchy that I might have missed? Looking to save a lot of rework by finding a solution.  (Sorry if this is in the wrong area, not exactly sure where to put a Creo Illustrate question, a mod can feel free to move or message me where to remake the post if needed)

Hello All,We have a problem with the Ansys Simulation module in Creo 11.0.0.0. When we run the simulation with the default settings, it always shows the message: "Solve I Failed I 0% completed," even when running with a simple part, and then stops without showing any results.We had no such problem in Ansys Simulation when using Creo 10 on the same hardware. Why is this happening?Our hardware: Windows 11, 28 GB memory, AMD Epyc 7V12 (4 CPUs), 2.4GHz, and NVIDIA T4. Thanks in advance to anyone who may assist us solve this issue.

Team, Does anyone have a Mathcad Prime routine to calculate the unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind? Thanks,Glen Atlas, MD

I need to choose the minimum value of q depending on the layer thickness...If the layer thickness is =< 2m the q should be the minimum value of ( q;avg or 12MPa) if the layer thickness is > 2m q should be the minimum value of ( q;avg or 15MPa) I tried to do it this way, but it is not working.  Can you spot the mistake in this , please?Thanks in advanceYusra Prime 9 page 12

Hi, I created account to use the Creo Elements Direct Modeling Express 8.0 as a private user for free but the app is asking me for a company proxy server settings. I have not a company. I would be just privet user. If not possible I would delete  my account.What I can do to use the free app?If not possible, how I can delete my account connected with my email "kacparek@wp.pl"? Thanks in advance

Odd problem but here you go. I have an assembly drawing. We publish using default HPGL/2 format. Everything in Creo View 9.1 looks fine except 1 sheet seems to have drawing extents that are off. In Creo Parametric 9 its fine. All other sheets are fine, D Size and when you view or Print to PDF, sheet 2 appears scaled down and not maximized to the paper size. Very odd.    When I've seen this in the past, its been due to a piece of geometry or sketched entity outside the field of the drawing border except we cannot find anything. Any other reason for this behavior? The drawing bounded boxes also appear inside the field of the drawing too.  Sheet 1 above normal. Sheet 2 below not normal  

I just noticed a strange behavior in CREO 10. In my model tree I selected a single part representing a volume (extruded feature). Within this part/volume I'm packaging other components. I want to see through this volume to see the other parts. So, I select this Volume (2nd art in model tree) click Edit Modal Appearances... and change the transparency setting to see-trough. What happens is another part (3rd item in modal tree) transparency also changes. I noticed this and wanted to turn off transparency. When I edit this part (3rd) whatever changes I make impacts the other part (2nd). Why are these two related for Appearances? How do I break this relationship? Mind you I am only selecting one part to apply transparency.

Hello, I would like to calculate the bolts, but I don't know exactly how to set the constraints.Should the thread also be designed? I'm hoping for a good idea. Designed with Creo 10.   

I am in the process of transferring thousands of Solidworks parts over to CREO 5 and trying to create a macro that sets material and converts to Sheet Metal for us.  So far so good with that, but in order to create the Flat Pattern as part of the Macro it requires a face to select as the correct Orientation.  I'd like to automate that as well if possible but the top face of the flat pattern could be different for each part, so I'm wondering if there is a way that at time of creating the Flat Pattern "Rep" the correct orientation could be saved as well?   In the Flat Pattern Preview window it automatically positions the view oriented towards the flat face, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to have it use that view and save it as a new Orientation.   For anyone helping me with this to understand what I am doing here, after the Flat Rep and correct orientation is created I then have a macro generate a new drawing (for Flat Pattern only) using a template th

Hey guys, Im currently testing a VBA Code from a college, that was written for Creo 4. In one part, it uses the method IpfcParameter.GetDriverType(). It worked fine in Creo 4, but now with Creo 10, it gives the Runtime Error '-2147352567 (80020009)': pfcExeptions::XToolkitObsoleteFunc. The method is still present in the VB API User’s Guide 10.0.0.0, so I dont know why it should be obsolete. Is there a workaround to get the value otherwise?

Softwear: Creo ParametricRelease: 7.0Version: 7.0.8.0Dimension ⇒ Tolerance “Plus - Minus” ⇒ Selecting None will automatically enter “-” for the lower limit.If the upper and lower limits of the drawing dimensions are both “+” (plus sign),it is easy to make a mistake, and even if a mistake is made, the small size of the symbol makes it difficult to find the mistake.It is not possible to set the Pro/TOOLKIT module to not enter “-” in the lower limit tolerance field by default, even in the Pro/TOOLKIT module.Therefore, I would like to be able to select whether “-” (minus sign) should be automatically or manually entered for the lower limit value.
