Hi,I am having issues working with the pentable when I set the pentable file and all 3 config options, but still, while printing and saving the pdf file, the geometry lines are not as per the pentable, and when I remove the pentable file, geometry lines changes but not as per requirement (that means without pentable file).

The enhancement to Creo 8: Recursive References, is unstable on parts with large numbers of features (1000+). A video showing recursive references: https://youtu.be/WiXGPC6WfsU?t=53  By clicking "edit references" on a feature, Creo will auto-populate the next dialog box for a list of recursive references.  If your part happened to have a lot of features this can take an extremely long time, about 20min for a 1200 feature part.  Thus without using the recursive references, it has basically disabled the use of edit references.  This is a bug; the list should only be populated when the recursive references button is pressed. I have done some testing with this; if the feature you are editing references does not reference a quilt, there is no delay since the recursive references only slows down when there is a reference to a quilt.   Does anyone know a workaround that would still let me use edit references?Sidenote: I have a Tenth gen Intel Xeon 8core

Good day everyone! I am new to the forum, and I am a student of electrical mechanical engineering, I am studying a tutorial about the integration of Mathcad and PTC. I think it will be a very useful tool for my career and professional life. I share the following link. I have a question about the availability of the file that appears in task #1 SPRING. MCDX   Link https://learningconnector.ptc.com/tutorial/1637650665404/integrate-a-mathcad-prime-worksheet-in-creo-parametric   If you could help me by clarifying this question, where can I download it? I would greatly appreciate it.   Greetings!   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate   ¡Buen día a todos!

Is there a way to unlock the symbols in the symbol library and edit the text description?

Hello all, I try to get the coordinate systems from a model (based on the following tutorial). However my VBA (so not VB!) script is as follows:   Public Function createHoleUDFInPart(ByVal placementModel As IpfcSolid, _ ByVal Name01 As String, _ ByVal csysName As String, _ ByVal Dim1 As Double, _ ByVal Dim2 As Double) _ As IpfcFeatureGroup Dim csys As IpfcCoordSystem Dim cSystems As IpfcModelItems Dim i As Integer Dim udfInstructions As IpfcUDFCustomCreateInstructions Dim csysSelection As IpfcSelection Dim csysReference As IpfcUDFReference Dim references As CpfcUDFReferences Dim variantDims As IpfcUDFVariantDimension Dim variantDims2 As IpfcUDFVariantDimension Dim variantVals As IpfcUDFVariantValues Dim group As IpfcFeatureGroup IpfcCoordSystem = Nothing ' On Error GoTo Try Set cSystems = placementModel.ListItems(EpfcModelItemType.EpfcITEM_COORD_SYS) For i = 0 To cSystems.Count - 1 If (cSystems.Item(i).GetName.ToString = csysName) Then Set

We want to know whether it is possible to print All or Range of Combined States or any API available to simulate Creo UI steps: File > Print > Print > "All" or "Range" from Combined States while printing solid model in Creo Parametric through Toolkit.

1. Is there any way to clean up the MBD 3D annotations(Dimensions) in 3D model in the same way like a 'Dimension cleanup' command in Drawing/Detailing?Also, Looking for any equivalent API(toolkit) or an algorithm that can be used to automate it?2. Is there any snap line option in MBD as like in drawing/detailing in creo to do manually?If so, is there any config option in Creo like(~auto_center_dimension_mbd) to set in 3D model for MBD dimensions?We would be glad if you could provide as much as info on this or / any of the workaround that we can tried on this 3D dimension cleanup activity.

In previous years i could easily log into Creo Elements Direct Express 6.0.  But for the last year or so it is very haphazard, and only can be accomplished by accident.  I can ask for a new authorization, which does not usually work.  And somehow I obtain a temporary ability to log in.  it often says "cannot access internet connection".  But my Norton 360 firewall shows access allowed for this software.  Please,, how to correct this.  I'm guessing it has something to do with windows 10, or Norton 360 security.  

Tells me I have reached the maximum number of licenses. I have prime 7 exress and would like to install prime 9 express. It keeps asking me for some license everytime I install the free version. I also cannot load the knowledge articles below. The links don't work, it jsut does some funny animations and does not load the community pages.

hi -I'm trying to plot a function but I get an error.Not sure how to construct this properly. Any help is very welcome. 

Hello,i have a question about custom symbol. is it possible to have a single variable text repeated?for instance, i have to use a text in both italian and english language but i have to use the same variable textex. ZINC PLATE \ZINC\ AND ZINCATURA \ZINC\Thanks!

I cant unbend this model due to some issue I done everything by changing the relative or absolute values also but no use. Please @TomD.inPDX help me with this sir.

We are currently using Creo 8.0.2.0, and when I double-click on a dimension to enter or edit the value, the prompt comes up and then immediately disappears (see attached images).  I have less than one second to try and enter a new value.    

General admin question:All Creo Parametric Installation and Administration guides have a section about the contents of the FlexLM license file and talk about EXTERNAL_NAME attribute in some of the license features. I attempted to edit my license file to use the EXTERNAL_NAME as described but it only caused the feature to become unavailable. Has anyone gotten it to work as described in the guides? Thanks!

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.7.0The scketch-dimensions are not editable, we can't modify directly buo only on the pop-up

Hi, we work with big assemblies and sometimes structure of the model is a mess.I want to find which part position will be affected after i change constraint of specific part(move). This is downstream example.Next case is I want to know which part placement will affect this part position. This is upstream example. How can i do it in creo? Thanks in advice)

Dear Specialists, I am a using Mathcad Prime 3.1 .Ink I want to confirm attached xmcd file, but I can't do my version. Could you please tranform this files? Best regards,Niko

Does anyone know what the problem is in this Mathcad 15 sheet using the linterp function.  I have successfully used it exactly this way before.  All I did was change the input data.Attached is the xmcd file: IEC HEMP E3 STANDARD INTERPOLATION.xmcd.This sheet calls another xmcd as a reference: POINTS PER DECADE FUNCTION.xmcdI have attached both files along with the data file. The error claims that the vector Time is not in ascending order.  You can see from the data and the plot of Time vs Time that is not correct.  You can also see that the more dense t vector is ascending and on top of the Time vector. Thanks for any help provided.

Hello all,    got some basic question about data management. Working in company without Windchill. System is based on chaotic subfolders structure and the same project is shifted between different workstations on external HDD Everytime when project is shifted to other person so he has to find path to lost data and retrieve objects. My question is: Does exists something like "relative path" for SEARCH_PATH config options: Example: //project/main_frame/   l know is dumm question, but praxis is like l described... Thx for any advice best regards @mbonka

Hi everyoneI am trying to automate a task, where the user has to select a sketch (that will be graphically shown using a GIF-Image stored somewhere), then provide certain inputs (namely dimensions) that will be shown on the sketch and then my worksheet will compute the results.  To provide an example, I could say:Sketch:= Square / Rectangle / Circlefor "Square" the input variable could be: a (the side of the square)for "Rectangle" the input variables could be: a,b (the two sides of the rectangle)for "Circle" the input variable could be: r (the radius).then MathCAD would take the input variable(s) and compute, as an example, the perimeter and the area. The computation is no problem at all, I can manage it with some ifs.  But the input variables, I do not know how to "force" the user to input all and only the variables that are needed for the chosen sketch (the number of this variables is around 8-10 in my real application, the geometrical sketches being slightly more

By default the size of a drawing view outline is determined by all of the geometry in a particular model, irrespective of whether that geometry is visible or hidden.   As a consequence for many models, the size of the drawing view outline is very large and results in drawing views being overlapped in order to fit views on the sheet.   The worst problem with the current functionality this is that drawing views will re-size and models appear to move around due to a change in the model. This is a problem because a cosmetic change in the model can result in a large number of views 'moving' and considerable rework to re-place dimensions, notes, annotations in their correct positions.   For example I may start with a drawing looking like this, the view outline is highlighted for convenience:   Then I will simply go into my model, add a sketch, and come back to my drawing which now looks like this:   You can see how the main view and side view moves down toward the

Is it possible to display a matrix as an image (as was possible in Mathcad 15)?

I've been running into a repeating problem with the output equations on embedded Excel spreadsheets.  The visual width of an embedded spreadsheet is limited by the width of the input and output expressions.  Because of this, I organize my I/O equations carefully.   Sometimes, I find that my spreadsheet is now wider than the page it is on.  If expand and look at the output equations, they are spread out and staggered across the page.  Not at all like I left them.  Blow is a screen shot.  You can see that they are plainly staggered wider than the page.It should look like this.Does anyone have any ideas what is happening.  This is a repeating problem across several documents with embedded spreadsheets.
