I am trying to find the easiest way to make a pdf and dxf of a sheet metal part in creo 8. The current way I achieve this is by having a part and drawing with the same name and then a separate drawing with partname-dxf. This dxf drawing is not copied when a new part is generated when save a copy is used. Is there a way to have this extra drawing copied as well. The pdf is needed by our break press operator to show bend locations. The dxf we make is of the part in saved flat view with hidden lines removed for a machine to cut out that can only read dxf files.  I have been thinking of ways to add this dxf drawing to the drawing that that shares the part name, however this comes with problems of its own.1. The drawing format we use has number of sheets in the corner, so by adding the dxf drawing increases the number of sheets. I was able to set the total to a parameter in the drawing but then it has to be set manually if the drawing pages increases. is there a way to change the

Hi All, I know the basics of creating a section view. i am trying to get a specific section view if possible? below are images. I want to cut a section view on this part shown in the first image just like this with the arrows placed the way it is, but only show this specific part and not the whole part (shown in image 2). how can I do this? I tried so many ways, but cannot do it. the only way to do this is by creating a square cut to only obtain that area. by doing this, the arrows on the main view will be weird( Image 3 & 4). is there a possibility? thank you all

Hi,I am using an Async Java App with my Creo 8. The app adds a few commands and buttons on the Global Menu in Ribbon. Whenever I am using the app, the annotation shows sluggish behavior, like, if I type a sentence in the Note, each alphabet takes around 1 sec to be typed. This only happens when my async java app is running, if I disable that app, the sluggish behavior goes away. Any help?Thanks.

Hello, I work for a large company with many designers who all work in the same models. Last year, I incorporated pro program parameters to configure top level General Assemblies. It works great because you get a pop up menu & can just paste in numbers from a spreadsheet (much easier than manually replacing). The problem is, when another designer runs a project & creates new models, my pro program breaks & errors out. Creo doesn't know how to find the new interchanges & it takes quite a bit of expertise to fix it every time (not feasible with over 100 designers working at a given time). Here is a short example of some of the pro/program that I added, with unneeded details removed for confidentiality. I am looking for advice on a better way to manage the pro/ program for configuring assemblies so that a designer cannot break it just by replacing one of my interchange assemblies with an unrelated interchange. INPUTELBOW_NUMBER STRINGMOTOR_NUMBER STRINGE

Hello, everyone. I am trying to install a floating license server and it worked. However when performing some tests with my colleagues I realized that after I borrowed the license, I was not able to return back for another colleague to pick.I received the following error msg: "Unable to return the license. Verify that the current license settings are correct.". I found nothing about such error on the online documentation.Did someone experienced the same issue? Thanks in advance for the feedback. GF 

Hi,I have created an External Simplified Rep from my assembly and created a drawing for it.  I am now trying to do the same with an opposite hand version of this assembly and I get the following message when I try to save and upload to Windchill: "External Simplified Representation "xxx.asm" cannot be saved. ID passed in the rule is not found in the member dependency of "xxxx.asm"." Has anyone ever dealt with this and were you successful in finding a solution?

HelloI have this restricted value parameter definition set in Creo 8. { Name = TOLLERANZA_GENERALEType = stringdefault = 'ISO 2768-mK'Enum = {'ISO 2768-mK','ISO 2768-fH','ISO 2768-cL'}Access = full}, I thought that with the option "access=full" you could change the entered value as you wish in Creo with the possibility of choosing a value not included in the list, entering it from the keyboard.But it seems that this is not the case. The only possible values ​​are those of the list.So what is the meaning of "access=full"?

Hi PTC Community, I'm currently facing an issue while converting files from MathCAD 15 to Prime 9. It appears that a specific checkbox option, which was available in MathCAD 15, is missing or not functioning correctly in Prime 9. I'm trying to manually debug the issue, but I'm struggling to find a solution. Has anyone encountered a similar problem or know of any workarounds to restore this functionality in Prime 9? Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help!

I am using Mathcad Prime Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.0.0Dear all, good afternoon from Brazil. I hope you are well. Since our Mathcad´s Brazil support team did not solve our issue, which is a big problem for us, we are contacting PTC directly. We have 7 Mathcad M15 M045 licenses (one of which is a network license) acquired by General Electric in recent years. In the last few weeks, we bought one more standalone license, but it is for PTC Mathcad Prime 6, because it is no longer possible to buy an M15 license. Our problem is that the Prime version does not directly open the M15 files of our current version. To do this, we were instructed to do a conversion from the old format of the file to the new format. But here is the problem: after this conversion, a lot of information, formatting and macros are lost from our worksheets and the calculation is not done directly without first solving some problems. So that you understand the seriousness of this problem: we have more than 200 folders,

The suggested techniques to disable the new version pop up to messages is problematic as I have users around the globe that have different .psf files for various reasons.  Manually going in and changing it for each user around the globe doesn't make much sense either.  Can there be a config.pro option to disable this functionality vs. modifying the .psf file or browsing to the General Setting dialog to disable.  I push a config.sup everytime the users launch Creo from a globally common location so that is the most desirable way to turn off this functionality.  So there is no confusion, an image of the message I want to disable is attached.
