I must be losing my mind. Didn't Creo used to allow making a Diameter dimension in drawing mode of a side cross section edge or point using the 3 mouse clicks just like you can in part sketcher mode? I have a cross section view of a part that I want to CREATE a diameter type dimension from a centerline to an edge.  The entity was not made in the part mode with that feature dimensioned as a diameter so I cannot just show the dimension. In part sketcher mode, you can easily make a diameter dimension by left clicking the edge, left clicking the centerline, then left clicking the edge a second time and placing the dimension.I swear the exact same steps could be done in drawing mode when making an annotation dimension but it is not working.  I am using Creo version 7.0.5.0 and all it does when I perform those clicks is try to make a length dimension of the edge itself, not a diameter dimension.

Would anyone be willing to provide example syntax of how to use EvalOutline() and/or GeomOutline and how to get the values for each?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In reguards to https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS210906.   I have been playing with this and discovered these attributes about two years ago and have found it very valuable.  One thing that happened though is I rolled a dash number of an install , It was pretty much additions but it rolled about half of the Part ID's within the -002 part and now i need to redo all my tracking markers / context ID's  Why wouldn't it have kept everything that didn't change with the same numbers and add the new ones. 

I'm currently running PTC Mathcad 9.0,0 on Windows 11 Pro.  After renewing my license, I received an email with two license files. One of the text license files has the word "standard" at the end of the file name. which do I use?   I've opened each in a text editor.   I do see at least one difference.  I see the word "BORROW" in one of the licenses.    Any idea why I would receive two licenses?  What are each for? 

Hello, I'm using Creo v 11 and it is continuously crashing when I try to open a Solidworks part file. I get no error message or notification, it just closes the program after loading for a bit. Has anyone else had this issue or have an idea of why this might be happening? Side note I cannot share the file as it is proprietary.

I have changed the detailed options for symbol_font to ASME and the additional symbols show up in the GD&T and Notes area however, the dimension text does not have the full list of symbols. How can I get this to update? The specific symbol I'm looking for is the spotface symbol. We're using Creo 7

Warm greetings to all,I remember that a few years ago, a post was published asking how to write one or more points overlapping the function to be derived, instead of one or more apexes, but I can't find it, so how can I do it especially for MATHCAD 15? the difficulty lies in placing the dots on the functions, then we proceed with the prefix operators and the like. Thank you very much.

Hello,I'm trying to install the Spekan Purge Tool, but it's asking for a password to install it, I followed this link https://community.ptc.com/t5/System-Administration/Spekan-Purge-Tool/td-p/415298/page/2Still nothing.

Hello, Are Merge/inheritance feature accessible with a Creo Essential license ?I use this function in parts for years but recently we change our license "Creo Advance Design" for "Creo Essential". Since this the buttons are grayed out...Is it a problem with my creo install or a license issue ? Thanks in advance.  

Hello. Our CREO License recently changed. Current Situation is using Floating License and LMGRD. Old Creo Licenses (Foundation, Parametric, etc.) changed  CREO Essentials.  So, I have to change LMGRD's License Pack.  When I Change Creo License Pack, do I need to reconfigure CREO on all designer PCs?

Mathcad Prime 10File Attached. When evaluating a range of inputs for the program shown, the outputs are correct.  I need to assign the  outputs to a variable as a column vector to use in subsequent steps.  When I assign the program outputs to a variable, I get error "This value must be a scalar or a vector".  1. If the output of linterp_2D(A,B,Data,a,0.25) isn't a column vector, what is it?2. How can I create a column vector (or anything else) from the program output so that I can assign it to a variable?  

I have used the .dat license file that I got in the email for 30 days free trial version. Although I call it and configure it, status says in red full functionality-29 days remaining but it doesn't allow me to modify anything in the file

 In the thread on "Roots of polynomial #3 and How to find unique values into a vector/matrice?" there is a Sept. 23. 2024 post from Werner that uses a function implicitplot2D. I gather from the results and descriptions that this function returns the x-y pts within a defined region where the specified real/complex function = 0 (or close?).  I got around to playing with the attached mcd11 file that has the programmed definition fro this function, and I'm interested in the implicitplot2D function details. I started looking at the function program implementation in the mcd11 file, but it's not something I will work out in the next few minutes. Diverting to the easier path for the moment (find out what has already been done), I found a reference to an implicitplot2D function link in Werner's Mar. 5, 2017 post. The link leads to https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad/implicitplot3d/m-p/332011 ("3d" seems to be in the link, although it advertises itself as the 2d l

Hello Everyone.From : To : How to Demonstrate ? Thanks in advance. Regards. Loi.

Hi,I am using creo 8 with windchill 12.  I have multiple drawings where I run a model check, and get the error "Highlighted dimensions can not be regenerated". However, there are no dimensions on the drawing that are highlighted! This error prevents me from proceeding with a promotion request. Any ideas on how to understand what dimensions are causing issues?  Thanks

I get frustrated when I enter an mapkey incorrectly (either by typing something wrong or having typed a random letter some time before typing the mapkey I intended), wait for the expected action not to happen, then look down to the status bar to look at the mapkey string that I actually typed (which may have disappeared by then), and then have to hit backspace or enter to start over / clean up the mapkey. I would love to force the typed letters to match existing mapkeys in session and timeout after a few seconds. If a mapkey string didn't match an existing mapkey in session, or a few seconds after a letter was typed without completing an existing mapkey in session, the typed letters entry / input string would clear (as if "Enter" was typed). Is there a setting that will prevent typing an incorrect or nonexistent mapkey? Is there a setting that will clear the mapkey entry after a certain timeout period? Alternatively is there a way for a script to read what the current en

What date codes of SolidWorks can be opened in Creo 7.0.5.0 with Unite? Basically, I would like to utilize Solidworks data in a Creo 7.0.5.0 assembly and am searching for SolidWorks data code compatibility. 

Hi, I'm trying to use the Visual Basic API to create a drawing with a custom template, but I'm getting the error message:   System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: 'pfcExceptions::XToolkitNotFound'   The line of code on which I get the error message is:   Dim drawing As IpfcDrawing = session.CreateDrawingFromTemplate(Mdl.CommonName, "D-CUSTOM", Mdl.Descr, drwnCreateOptns)   I tried changing the template to an out of the box template and that works, so it has to be the custom template, is there anything I'm missing?

I'm wondering if this is a bug in Creo (I'm using 9.0.1.0), or if I have mistakenly set a stupid settings...   I can't seem to create offset curves in the manner that I've been for decades. What I consider standard process to make an offset is: (1) Select a chain of curves, either one by one or with the chain selection (shift-select). (2) When I'm done selecting curves, an arrow shows me the direction of the offset. (3) I enter a value and I now have a chain of offset curves, comprised of individual curves corresponding to each of the curves I selected in step (1) What I'm seeing this afternoon is what's shown in the image. I can kind of pick a chain, but the offset curve it creates is a single curve, no matter how many entities are used, and I can't access individual entities in the curve (i.e. delete an unneeded curve in the chain so it can be replaced, or trim a curve with another entity, etc.). Is there a setting I inadvertantly toggled that activates this type of behavior? I

How can  I solve this problemI use prime 9 

Hi, Is it possible to create an automated techincal drawing process in Creo Parametric. I am designing a lot of sheet parts and I don't need to give detail but in drawing I have to give maximum dimensions for sheet part. If there is a way to do it automated. It will save me a lot of time. I mean with just one click or a combination I just want to create front view and right view for a flat sheet part.I am doing it with mapkey but still have to give dimensions manually. Thanks in advance -Enes

Hello everyone,based on positive gqo values in q, i want to store the values in Res in the program a.And get the result of 'a' as the length of RA.How can i do itattached the Mathcad 10 file.
