  Hi,  I have a copy of Mathcad 13.1 that I had purchased several years ago. At that time Microsoft operating system was Windows XP. After I install it on Windows 10, it gives me an error message that it cannot start "engine 12.0". Is it possible to properly install and run MC13.1 on Windows 10?  

We have two parameters 'DRW_RELEASED_ON' & 'DRW_RELEASED_BY' in our drawing template. Source for these parameters is Windchill. Meaning, the values for these parameters will appear automatically when the drawing is released. All this worked fine in Creo 7 When we upgraded to Creo 9, I could not see these two parameters in the drawing template. Becuase of this, values for these parameters are not getting populated after the drawing is released. Can someone help? where exactly this issue is there?

We’ve taken a trip to the French Alps to learn all about the future of one of the newest forms of transport - a visionary, chainless vehicle with an advanced pedaling system creating a new world where they want everyone to be physically active.    

Creo Parametric 9.0.2.0The section view fails when the assembly components have been dragged.Do we also need to save a snapshot of the section view as well?

I'm using a custom menu created with J-Link to set the material in a part. The method pfcPart.Part.RetrieveMaterial works fine when the config option pro_material_dir is set to a local/network drive. However when this is set to a Windchill location using wtpub://[servername]/[material library] I get the error: com.ptc.wfc.Implementation.pfcExceptions$ToolkitNotFound. The material library location is correct (it points to the right location when manually setting the material) and the Windchill server is registered and authentication is done when starting up Creo. Do I need to make a connection to Windchill within my program before I can access items such as material files?

Looking to probatch a bunch of files from .prt and .asm to step and drawings as dxf. I am exporting from Wildfire 4.0 which just happens to be on the laptop I'm exporting from. I used to know how to do this. Does anyone have a quick guide to doing this? I don't want to spend more time figuring this out than it takes to do it manually. Thanks, WayneF

I was trying to get the trial addition and this page popped up.

Dear Sirs, I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding the Creo drawing inspection function shown in the attached image. This function automatically generates a dimension report and allows for the export of dimension data to an Excel file via the "Export to XLS" button. I am looking to automate this process using Creo TOOLKIT, specifically to automatically extract dimensions and generate the report. However, I am not very experienced with programming. I would greatly appreciate any guidance, tips, or code examples on how to achieve this. Thank you in advance for your assistance!   Best regards,Lan Haydena  

I have down loaded and installed Prime 10.0.1.0. However, It is not clear what was "improved." I would like to check out the improvements for myself.

Whenever I think I might be making progress, I hit something that causes me to scratch my head slightly.   This time, it's one of NaN's apparent idiosyncrasies.   SIUnitsOf returns NaN when applied to mixed unit matrices, which is somewhat limiting.   So, having spent a few happy moments programming Yet Another New Version of a function, this time SIUnitsOf, I was reasonably happy with its behaviour.    Then I thought I ought to keep my hand in writing Express-friendly functions and sort of succeeded.   I say "sort of" because I noticed an anomaly: vectorizing SIUnitsOf over a mixed-unit matrix with a pure NaN threw in a spare unit where none was supposed to be.     I've played around with various positions of NaN within the matrix, and it looks as though SIUnitsOf returns the unit of the first element to the NaN under vectorization.   The first question is clearly, "Is this 'anomaly' to be expected?", in which case, what am I not understa

I'm not sure how long this has been like this, but when I hit the print button nothing at all happens - no dialog, no error, nothing.  I restarted the PC and still nothing.  ARunning MathCAD 9.0.0.0 on Windows 11 Pro.Any ideas?

Is there a way to reorder the sequence of locations within a network? Pushing them up or down in the primary defined sequence you might need to reconsider in the course of your design?Additionally, I would like to know if it's possible to remove a location within a routed wire/cable without it being deleted in the network itself.

Hello, im at creo parametric 7.0.9.0 and it never saves what config i am using or what directory i am working. Like always. Here is how i confi'ed' the creoin this folder especific its my config, but i tried other folders, it always open in the below foldersworking_directoryconfigshould I  write something on my config, so it becames permantly. Ive already tried chanching the file_open_default_folder with defaault, working dir, in secion but nothing workings. I did already look to some solutions on here, like chanching trought the envirment but didnt work as well.

I recently discovered an interesting trick in Creo Simulate. Normally, it is not possible to place constraints on the weighted links. When starting a static analysis, a fatal error occurs. Therefore, instead of constraints, e.g. springs to ground are required. However, if the static analysis is integrated in a fatigue analysis, Creo forgets the pre-check and calculates without problems 🤣

I have run into similar problem again where I am not able to evaluate the value stating it cannot assign value greater than 10^307 what is missing in here? 

Would someone please help me with setting the document tol so that very small values in the matrix show as zero? Thanks

My computer crashed while using mathcad (unrelated crash to Mathcad). After restarting, Mathcad won't open beyond the splash screen. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program, and keep getting the same results. Splash screen opens, closes, and then nothing else happens.

Hello, I am using Creo Parametric 9.0.8.0 with Windows 10. I have an odd case where it appears that Creo is measuring the volume of a part wrong. The volume output from the mass properties dialog box is showing a value of about 0.306 in^3 as shown in one of the screen shots. However, this way underestimates the volume of the part. Just the main portion in the middle can be hand calculated to about 0.7 in^3. I don't know what is wrong here. I have tried regenerating the part and swapping to fully assigned properties and then back to geometry defined, but the number does not change. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks, 

Not much fun doing detailed drawings.  I remember doing detail drawings in the early 90's on Pro/ENGINEER and being able to select 10+ drawings into memory all at once.  Does anyone know what year we lost the ability to load countless drawings?  *not that it's a big deal just being nostalgic LOL Bart Brejchadesignengine.com 

First and foremost creo lags so much on a brand new computer. Yes i have read the post where it says just write -g:win32_gdi and yes it fixed the problem with the lagging. It works crisp with that setting. But the model colour is all dark grey and unusable. And the fix to that is to remove -g:win32_gdi. Can i have a crisp program with correct colours and graphics at the same time?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.5.0In a coordinate system, the three transformations and the three rotations are displayed as dimensions by default.Double-clicking on the coordinate system always displays all six dimensions, which can lead to errors such as selecting the wrong dimension.Can I hide the dimensions that should not be changed?

Hello everyone,I hope you are doing fine!I recently calculated concrete bending stiffness using Mathcad Prime 8.0.0.0.However, when I was writing an equation, I got the message "These units are not compatible" in the Composite Bending Moment Equation.Can someone please help?I attached the full calculation below.Thank you in advance!

Hello, I received a message in German saying that the mass properties are outdated. In subsequent processes, I always receive a similar message.Can someone explain how to fix this?Is it possible that some configuration has changed and can no longer be used? I dont want just to hide the notification.The Startparts are created in Creo 10.0.3.0 and am still using it.I activated the mass_property_calculate and changed but its not solving the issue.  

Hi, Mathcad Prime 10. So I have made this combo box to choose concrete value from a dropdown menu. I have defined all the value for a concrete class:I then choose to hide left side, so I only have the input. It works super great! The problem is, that since I have defined all the values from the tabel, I cant pick anything behind the equation. If I click here:Then I hit the drop down menu behind:This makes it very impractical. To make space on top or below will not look good, and be confusing for the user. Is there a way to work around this? The method is a upgrade from our old calculation where combo box was not a feature. Before we just had a matrice with callouts like this:I could go back to the old solution, but I just really wanted to impliment the new feature, because it is so much nicer to work with.  Hope someone can help. Thanks.
