Hi,

Hello, We recently changed the network in our organisation. The server holding licences for creo didn't change, it just change network. Although the server is up and we can ping it, people can't access their licenses. Here is the creo error message and the result of ptcstatus.bat on the user side.And here is the result of ptcstatus.bat on the server side :

Hi,How to solve for V2(t)?

I have a stencil that I'm adding to an assembly just to show it graphically and I want the weight of the part to be zero.  Is there a way to assign a weight to a part that has the mass parameter locked?

Hello Can someone please let me know if I can download Expert Moldbase Extension 16 now? PTC only has version 15 available for download. Thanks.   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate.    Olá Alguém por favor pode me avisar se eu já posso baixar o Expert Moldbase Extension 16? PTC só tem a versão 15 disponível para download. Obrigado.

In our company, creating raw materials lists for projects (like product A) is a time-consuming manual process. Our estimator has to go through every single part in a CAD model from Creo to figure out how much sheet metal, bars, and pipes we'll need. This is especially tedious for our low-volume, high-mix production. Is there a better way?Ideally, we did like to extract raw material dimensions (highlighted in red in the table below) directly from the Creo 3D model parameters. This seems like a common need for manufacturers – how are you all handling material estimation with Creo and Windchill? Looking to automate this process and free up our estimator's time for more valuable tasks. So far I have tried to fix Height/Diameter/Thickness column through Material Library(mtl file). Any insights or tips would be greatly appreciated!    

I recently encountered a really strange programming error in MCD11. A calculation of the sum of three terms only includes the first two; the third term seems to be ignored. When the calculation is simply repeated, in what should be a second identical calculation , replacing the result with the (supposedly identical) new result, the repeat calc now gives the correct answer. The program is a simple transmission line simulator, which I was originally running with 1000 time points and 100 spatial points along the T-line. I was able to keep the error behavior using 6 time points and 4 spatial points. The attached program and pdf show the behavior. Referring to the pdf, on page 1 is the original program on the left (with the error) and the modified program (that works) on the right. The only difference is the repeat of the calculation line for vn(kt,Nline). This term is the sum of three other terms – as shown. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting the program when I realized it was

Hi,This is a modified variant of this circuit from this topic.As I am interested why odesolve block cannot solve such a kind of circuit or why we cannot use odesolve block here... let's see if someone will come with an answer by solving this problem using odesolve block.Find the current through C1, voltage across L1 and voltage across R3. Analysis must be done using odesolve block.   a) Vs(t) = 10V   b)  

Hello,  I am trying to utilize the new advanced controls textbox functionality by changing the background color of the textbox based on the input condition.  The input condition would be a defined variable called "Ratio" and whether or not it is above or below 1. The textbox would be assigned to the variable "Check", if Ratio is above 1 than check would read "No Good" with a red background, If Ratio is above 1 than check would read "OK" with a green background.  I have been searching through previous posts and had some help but am getting stuck with what appears to be passing in input variable "Ratio". I keep getting the following error. I have put the file I am working on below for reference.  

Hi there, Is there any way to insert data from PDF or Notepad into mathcad without the need to change the file into excel. I tried to do so by copying past the data but I got my data as text , couldn't past them into a matrice or table 

I have six matrics of z values and I need to apply this formulae in each one of them . I tried many programs like the ones I used before, they didn't work . Can you please help me?I also stuck in the same problem everytime can you also give me hints to solve these issues in the future.Thanks in advance

I'm wotking on an FEA model and making geometry changes to address high stress area. Everything had been going smoothly, but I'm now getting a fatal error. The model meshes and all appears to be good, but it won't run. Below is the message in the *.err file. It seems to refer to a link and specific edges. It looks like a geometry problem, but I don't know how to find it. I don't know of a way to search for the link or edges by an ID number.   There are no diagnostic messages when I generate the mesh.   Does anyone have a suggestion?    

Hi,Find the current through C1, voltage across L1 and voltage across R3. Analysis must be done using odesolve block (but of course other methods are welcome).  

Hi,I have this signal formed by a vector data points: And I want to make the  blue signal (a) to look like more green signal interposed on the blue signal:   Is it possible to do something like that from the a vector data points?Idea is that I want to have straight lines also on this portions of waveform:  

Hi everyoneI was trying to use distributed batch to export form .drw to .pdf.I faced a problem that this symbol can't show up properly while using distributed batch featureHow it looks in .drwWhen I export in manually, one by one When I try to use distributed batch.Everything is ok except this one. Glad anyone can help me.Thanks in advance.

In Creo 3 i can create a "Stock Model" to get the remaining material after a NC Sequence.How can i set it as Real stock for next sequences?For example: first sequence is a Volume Roughing with a tool dia 20mmI would like to create a new volume using the same mill window but limiting it to the remaining material of first sequenceI don't want to use Roughing and Re-Roughing 😄I cannot replace the starting workpiece with his worked component of the familytable inside NCI can save Stock Model as prt or stl, why i cannot use it for example for further operations?Thanks a lotOsvaldo

Hi All,What I am trying to acheive is to create a text string and symbol to be used as an item from the sketcher palette. The scenario is this. I want be able to create sketch palette item which has a cavity number id reference # and the part number.However when I create the sketch for this and want to add text, it does not give me the option to add the parameter it only gives a text option. If I add the parameter name in the text box and save this to the sketcher palette. When I call up this sketch from the sketcher palette in a part, I do not get the part number from the parameter in the model, I just get the text ( &part_number).The part number is a parameter in my start part and subsequent modelled parts. The only way I can get this to work is to insert this sketch from the palette and then edit the inserted sketch by selecting the parameter.Is there a way to add the parameter to the sketch in the palette section, without the need to do a secondary edit. Any

On Parametric 10.0.3.0, I'm unable to retrieve a .prt file from Windchill which was previously checked in by another user (who is utilizing the same version/license etc)   The first time I tried opening it - Creo crashed with a pop up from my graphics driver (not Creo) saying that the session had crashed (attached eventvwr log at the end) Any of the following times - I get a white screen as though its about to load but eventually I get the "cannot be retrieved" message   I have tried by clearing the workspace and using a brand new workspace too - no progress there.   Will also be trying to upload the prt file on my end using a local copy sent by the creator of that .prt file - shall update soon.   Shall also update with the tip on opening the prt in a text editor as mentioned in this thread. It does open in Creo View without any hitches, so I cannot figure what's wrong!   Event viewer log on the crash -        Log Name: System Source: n

 

Im working in teh Creo Elements/Direct 20.2.1.0 For example if a i have 50 threaded M6 holes and i want to change  all of them at the same time to partially threaded blind hole is it possible?  Thanks in advance

I am in the process of creating new Creo Parametric start parts and have a question. When these parts are used, when creating a new part, the New  File Options dialog displays some parameters, but doesn't include all the parameters in the start part.    What I am trying to figure out is how to determine which parameters are displayed and which ones are not. In the attachment, only about 25% of the total parameters are being displayed. My goal is to limit which parameters are shown and what order they are displayed in.    I am using Creo Parametric 8.0.1.0    

I received an email with the two license files attached but I am not sure why.  Is it an update?  I can't find PTCUPDATE.BAT on the server to install it.  I don't even know if it is necessary.

I make big machines like Booms for heavy equipment.  We use reference curves to plot relevant coordinates while drawing piece parts.  The reference curves could be quite large.  For example the boom could be 200 feet long in total, but I'm modeling something that is 6" X 6".  When I go to draw the part, the whole curve area is represented, even though the curve is hidden  in a layer, and I only use it as reference.  It makes projection views very difficult because sliding left, right, up, down, for the next view creates the huge outline from the curve and makes me zoom out like 400X just to get the view to drop in the drawing.  My question is.  Does anyone know how to get rid of the curve reference so that my projection view only has a small margin around the view instead of 400X area?** just upgraded to Creo 9,

Hi,How to export f(tj) in a txt file?  

Hello, I am using Creo parametric educational/academic edition 10.0.1.0. When I go to File>Prepare>Model Properties I scroll down to the "detailing" section and see "Tolerancing standard" set to "ISO/DIN Medium" and "Tolerancing standard verison" set to "ISO 1101:2017". I would like to have this information in a drawing, so that the drawing updates if I set it to "coarse" for example. I am aware that it sets the tolerance table for general tolerances, and that I can use it to automatically display tolerances in a dimension in a view.   Is there a way to include the values of theese model properties (tolerance class) in a note or repeat region? Or a way to read them into or from a model parameter?   I have searched the forum, the reference and the web for answers but found nothing on the matter.
