Wanting to setup Creo 7, so that when we login and can use either metric or imperial.  I can do this by having a metric and an imperial start part, I think. But how do I go about it when I start a new drg, If I bring in a metric format, it will bring in our dtl file, but if I bring in an imperial format, it will be the same dtl file......do I have to create a metric and imperial config and setup a mapkey to switch between the two, when required ? Stuart

Need to take the reference of the feature PIPE_SET_START and PIPE_TO_POINT in the tube.asm in C# code to automate the CREO.      In the above picture I was take the reference of the PIPE_SET_START feature using edit reference icon. I was filter this feature using the type. now need to take that reference of the feature by C# code or any macro.

Dear Team,When I am trying to install Creo Element direct modelling 20.7, I got this error. I know this is specific to Windows, but somehow I am not able to fix this, please help me. OS- Windows 11 HomeProcessor - AMD Ryzen 5 Note- In Windows 10 it works perfectly fine. 

I have a list of data. Some do not give a solution within the tolerance. What is the best way to ignore and move onto the next set of data? Is there a way to set a more coarse tolerance value? Prime 10 attached.  

I have created a dll file with some functions, but could not use them in Mathcad. I want to use the function ComputeProductAndQuotient() in mathcad.Could some one help us? 

Is there a setting I can set in Creo to prompt me to update the drw file after modifying part and asm files? I know there is a value for the auto_drawing_update variable that causes an update. When you modify and save a part or asm file other than the variable values, the "Do you want to update related files?" message appears. A message appears. I would like to pop up a dialog box with the phrase:   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate.    Creo에서 부품 및 asm 파일을 수정한 후 drw 파일을 업데이트하라는 대화 상자를 표시하도록 설정할 수 있는 설정이 있습니까?업데이트를 유발하는 auto_drawing_update 변수 값이 있다는 것을 알고 있습니다. 변수 값 이외의 부품 또는 asm 파일을 수정하고 저장하면 "관련 파일을 업데이트하시겠습니까?" 메시지가 나타납니다. 라는 문구가 있는 대화 상자를 띄우고 싶습니다.

Hello everyone! I have a graphics problem and that is: after having determined the equipotential lines (see photo) in a system with a square section and infinite length, made up of metal plates isolated from each other and at different potentials, I do not know how to make the field lines orthogonal to those of the potential. I have fixed two constant values ​​for the increments dx and dy. I attach the worksheet:  

EDIT: IMMEDIATELY AFTER POSTING, I SEE THAT THIS MAY BE A PRIME 10 BUG - CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM? I am attempting to solve for a single variable (vf) by creating an equation that has the root function on the RHS of the equation. Rather than try to explain with words, here's a picture of the problematic function. Problematic Function I am passing multiple variables to the function that are defined above: Testhp is a variable defined with units of power, Fan is a matrix formed from a READEXCEL function, and the values are unitless until later extracted by column and appended with appropriate unit values within the worksheet, D is a variable defined in units of length, fluid is a string passed to a Mathcad wrapper that is used in an included worksheet, t is a variable defined in units of temperature and p is a variable defined in units of force per length squared. I find it odd that there is no error reported by the equation above the equation reporting an error, bu

Where ist the default location of Creo Parametric while it´s connected to windchill?When i search it in Creo itself it shows me that path: wtws://XYZ/DEFAULT Creo/But this path cannot be found in the explorer. I am trying to find the local workspace in my explorer.

Any Mathcad 6.0+ fans out there?I've been using it since 1995. I got the Mathcad 7 and 8 upgrades and hated them. So, I've been using 6.0+ ever since. Mathcad 6.0+ ran fine on Win 95, Win NT, Win 98, Win 2000, and Win XP. Win 2000 and XP were a little trickier to install. I just took a good install from a Win 95 machine, copied the whole WINMAD directory and transferred it to the 2000 or XP machine. Then I tweaked the Windows file associations manually. Now I have Windows 7. I tried the same procedure. Most everything works fine, except when I Save or Save As... Mathcad 6.0+ shuts down abruptly. I’ve fiddled with the Compatibility mode and settings, but I get the same results. Any suggestions?

Hello all,I have used generative design in order to make lighter my design. But when I generated results, the reconstructed shapes had an issue, the Align command for two different curves was not created. I have tried to create manually alignment, but it is not accept it.Thanks in advance for your help!Best regards,Vlas

Hello,i am currently making a calculation with Mathcad Prime 9.0, where i got 3 different load cases and i want them all in 1  sheet. i made a few formulas at the beginning, and will later calculate my loadcases with them. For that i wanted some variables to be empty, so that they will just shown as their variable name, so i can later change this variable in every load case to a different number. When i just use a non defined variable, the whole formula cant used furtherWhen i give the variable a value and change it later, it will not recalculate the formula with the updated variable. Is there a Solution for this? Or is this just how Mathcad works?

I'm a mathCAD prime 10 user. I'd like to make my own function which refers a lot of parameters. Among them, here "kinematic viscosity of temperature" is below. The problem here is that TB0 already has a unit, .However, during the process of obtaining detailed variables with "units", it's hard to ignore "existing units" and put "new units". Since parameter A and B both have complex units, I don't want to put complex units to both A and B. I wonder how I could get TB0, with their own units from my program. I already searched on the board and learned that deleting all the units used here and put new units to last values but there're more parameters aside from the attatched files so I don't want it. Please help me out of here!  Plus, I wonder how to set an input variable in a function, lub_app. Please refer to method1 and 2 below.

Hello! I'm Y.J. Kim. mathCAD prime 10 user.  I'm trying to solve a 3D thermal conduction equation in cylinderical coordinate. Does the mathCAD provide 3D PDE solver? Plus, can I get a provided manual how to use it easily? Can I also notice what specific solver  is used in PDE solver? Lastly, I'm wondering how you guys solve 3D PDE by mathCAD. Does anybody solve the equation by FEM with their own script for it? I wonder if it provides so that I could start my work either from mathCAD or python. I always appreciate you.

I would like to calculate the welding bracket correctly. But I have not yet found the right approach.Or should I simplify the model first?  Load: 4kN********************************************************************************* 

hey, i get this weird message in my Creo. i have no idea what caused it and i have no idea how to search for the feature which causes the 'break' also my model tree is half grayed out and i have no idea why. does anyone know the cause?  i have little experience with Creo and my company has very little technical support so forgive me if theres no enough information. 

I am trying to create a push button control in Mathcad prime 10, like a Mathcad-15 file attached here, please help me to create the same in Mathcad prime-10.Thank you.

Hello Again.  CREO Frustration week 10 - Just checking - is it really not possible to design "smart assemblies" were you can suppress parts/groups using parameters, unless I have access to PRO/program ?  I just happen to not access to this feature. Is it really not possible to do this using relations / parameters? Thanks in advance. 

Hello.  I am using Creo parametric 7.0.12 and Windchill, I am trying to make a copy of a drawing + part - keeping their association so I can re-name them as a new part number and make changes. However, the part I am trying to copy is an earlier version of the component in Windchill. so this is a level of complexity.  Our structure isabc.prtabcs.prt (this is the sheetmetal instance)abc.drw I want to rename them all to be dfg.prtdfgs.prt dfg.drw I have added to my workspace all the versions I would like to copy - both of the part and the drawing. But when I try to save as, I get an error!. It appears that the sheetmetal instance that I have  is preventing the save.  I get the same error message described in this link - but the solution does not work. >> https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS74897 << I have tried to delete the instance, but the option on the family table is greyed out - so I am not able t

Hello Team, I'm trying to use a Merge/inheritance feature for creating another assembly file for kinematic/dynamic simulation assembly, so when the base model is changed by another engineer, it's easy for me to update either by manual or automatic option in Merge/Inheritance. Now I create every model name_Kinematic for all the parts, it takes a lot of time for me. Please help me with any automation. Regards,Sridharan

Hey,   I am trying to assemble a cylinder of wood that contains springs, the cover is flexible for movement as people will jump on it. Is it possible to assemble it the way I think on Creo ? If yes, how should the assembly of the cover. P.S. the cover should be rubber, so it can be move.   Thanks in advance for help   Best regards, Tariq

Using Creo 9.0....I have some legacy parts that were named with the description parameter and all my new parts have been named with ptc_common_name parameter. Is there a way for my drawing parts list to pull either name if i have an assembly with both new and legacy parts? I was thinking of adding a repeat region relation that is along the lines of the code below. Also, i don't want to modify the original part files. Is there a way to do this because my way isn't working. /NAME is new drawing parameter for the name columnIf description existsNAME = asm.mbr.descriptionendifIf ptc_common_name existsNAME = asm.mbr.ptc_common_nameendif

When modifying a .hol file, I'd like to specify the drill depth to more precision than 0.1. I have tried the following:  &DRILL_DEPTH[.01] however it still rounds to the nearest 0.1. I am using Creo Parametric 8.0.8

Hello. I stumbled randomly on the following:It seems that Mathcad defines atan and tan^-1 differently. Look at the attached picture. I thought that atan is the same as the inverse tan but it seems that it is not the case. Please, clarify this for me. Shouldn't atan and inverse tangens be the same definition?
