Can somebody share a sample 3d file with MathJax output for MathML equations in ALD v12?
Hi everyone, I am trying to remove the attach notes from drawing view, anyone knows how to do that.I tired using ProDtlnoteErase with that it will erase the note until next regeneration.Please refer the picture (I want to remove the SCALE 3:1 note) and the code.void glass_drawing_anote::RemoveNotes(void* app_data, const std::string& target_view, const std::string& target_note){ ProDrawing drawing = (ProDrawing)app_data; ProError err; ProDtlnote* p_notes = NULL; int n_notes = 0; // Collect all notes err = ProDrawingDtlnotesCollect(drawing, NULL, PRO_VALUE_UNUSED, &p_notes); if (err != PRO_TK_NO_ERROR || p_notes == NULL) return; ProArraySizeGet((ProArray)p_notes, &n_notes); for (int i = 0; i < n_notes; i++) { ProDtlnotedata note_data = NULL; if (ProDtlnoteDataGet(&p_notes[i], NULL, PRODISPMODE_NUMERIC, &note_data) != PRO_TK_NO_ERROR || note_data == NULL) continue; // Get attac
Hi Guys, I’m using Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0 ,I created a few samples with lattice structures and wanted to compare the 3D printed result to the CAD design. Now for the formula driven/TPMS structures one can enter cell size and wall thickness. I wanted to measure the pore size and realized that the in the process of creation defined wall thickness isn’t the same as the resulting CAD strucuture. As an example I created a Schwarz primitive lattice structure with cell size of 2mm x 2mm x 2mm and a wall thickness of 0.25mm, but when I measure the wall thickness after creating the lattice feature, its not the same as the inputted parameter (I measured ~0.47mm). I have attached a few Screenshots to make my issue more understandable. You’ll see a part of a paper where it shows how the wall thickness is measured and pictures of the resulting parameters of the previousely mentioned model. Creo Parametric post lattice definition measurements methodology to measure wall thickness according to lite
Hi,from time to time there is the question on how to add a second nut in IFX. Well, by default this is not possible. But you can use the following workaround.Update 2026 May: We have a new enhancement for Intelligent Fastener. A third washers and a second nut is now available Follow the links for more detail: Additional Washer and Nut for IFX Additional Washer and Nut for IFX - Tips & Tricks Availability Creo Parametric 13.0 – IFX 13.4.0.0 Creo Parametric 12.4 – IFX 12.4.4.0 Creo Parametric 11.0 – IFX 11.0.9.0 Creo Parametric 10.0 – IFX 10.0.11.0 WorkaroundI will explain it by using the IFX nut ISO4032-6. Copy the file ISO4032-6.dat and rename it to ISO4032-6_as_washer.dat. Open the file and change NUTTYPE 1 to WASHERTYPE 21 Change the columns in the file like shown in the image Finally the file should look like this Add a new icon for you new nut. Size should be 32x16 pixel. Now add this new nut to your catalog. I have added it to the mm catalog to a new group 'second_nut
Sir Isaac Newton This month’s challenge is inspired by one of the great unsolvable challenges of physics, the Three Body Problem. Of course, we won’t be asking you to perform the impossible in Mathcad Prime. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is the Two Body Problem for orbital mechanics. Earth-satellite two body problem Challenge 1: Create the math functions and programs that can calculate the position, velocity, and acceleration of a Mazda Miata-sized satellite in orbit around the earth. (Why a Mazda Miata? It was my first and only car. Feel free to substitute a car of your choice.) Choose your orbital parameters for altitude (e.g., medium-earth, geosynchronous, high-earth), inclination, eccentricity, and any other factors. Challenge 2 (optional): Incorporate advanced input controls to change the orbital parameters. Challenge 3: Graph the x-, y-, and z-values for acceleration versus time. Create additional graphs for velocity and positio
https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Mathcad-Ideas/Split-screen/idi-p/656081 The above link leads to a Mathcad Idea that suggests having split-screen working. This is something that I've wanted to see in Mathcad for some time (over 13 years, in fact), the lack of which is proving a real nuisance at the moment. Could some kind, support-paying souls please offer their support for this idea? Thanks, Stuart https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Mathcad/New-Feature-requests/m-p/356451#M139515 (I've got a much bigger list, in case anyone's not interested ...)
Creo Parametric 2.0 I am trying to reuse the explode states I defined in my sub assemblies when exploding the top level assy. I thought there was a way to do so, but I can't remember how or I'm mistaken. I may be thinking of style states. A year away from Creo has taken its toll on my memory of some functions. Thanks. (Interestingly, when searching I discovered that I had asked this before, almost 10 years ago, evidently with no response. That or the response was lost in one of the great community migrations of old. 😁)
Hello,I finally managed to install and run PTC Mathcad Prime 12 after solving multiple installation issues.At first, the application would not start at all and crashed with the following error in Event Viewer:"Cannot locate resource 'worksheetresources.xaml'"The issue was related to the Windows display language. After changing Windows from Polish to English and reinstalling Mathcad, the application now starts correctly.However, I now have a licensing problem.When I try to activate the 30-day trial, the License Wizard first showed several "Server Error" messages. After multiple attempts, I now receive this error:"You have reached the maximum number of license requests available for your product type."As a result, Mathcad only works in Express mode and I cannot activate the trial license.Could someone from PTC please:reset my trial activation limit, assign a trial license to my account, or provide manual activation instructions?I would really appreciate any help.Thank you.
Hi I have issues trying to plot the Moment and Shear Force diagram of the following case. Any help is highly appreciated! 🙂
I am using Creo Schematics Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0 When I save a schematic the software closes and saves. The workgroup manager stays open but I cannot reopen the schematic drawing unless I close the workgroup manager and restart from scratch.
One of the things that has always been a feature of these forums is the willingness of experienced users to provide help and guidance to others. In addition to help with how to use the Mathcad software the forums provide a place to gain advice and assistance with dealing with engineering challenges, problems that go beyond the simple application of the software to understanding the basic physics of a situation. One remaining impediment to this feature is the inability of Prime to save a file in an earlier version of Prime; a file asking a question in Prime 10 can be read in Prime 11 or 12 but if this file is modified and saved by a later version and posted as a reply it cannot be opened unless you have a more current version of the software. This is a great marketing tool--”Here’s your answer. To view it you must buy the latest version of the software!” But it’s a lousy way to share information. The forum is littered with requests to modify a file to enable a specific version to
Hi, I would like to export automatically generated rigid bodies from CREO Mechanism.
Thanks for the new option to customize the range of page numbering in Header/Footer, very useful when assembly a bigger document with several worksheets.Question 1: is it possible to link the page numbering to a running variable that keeps track of the overall numbering?I mean, first worksheet have 5 pages, then second worksheet starts on page number 6 until number of pages, then third worksheet starts on next page number after worksheet 2, etc.Question 2: does it exists a variable which provides the total number of pages of the current worksheet?
Up through Mathcad 15 it was possible to make a nice-looking parallel operator using the infix notation. It would be very helpful to make it work in Prime.
I am using Creo Parametric Release 3.0 and DatecodeF000 We need creo 3.0 Setup , because our machine support creo 3 only, kindly give setup file for creo3.0

Hello,I am trying to install PTC Mathcad Prime 12 trial, but the application does not start.After installation, nothing happens when I launch it. In Event Viewer I get the following error:System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException:Cannot locate resource "worksheetresources.xaml"I have already tried:reinstalling multiple times (clean uninstall + removing all PTC folders) installing .NET Desktop Runtime 8 installing WebView2 disabling antivirus using a different network (hotspot)The installer I used is "pim_installmgr_mathcad".It looks like the installer does not download all required files.Could someone provide a full offline installer or suggest a fix?Thank you.
Hello, I have been a paid user continuously since Version 1 back in the 80’s. In some important ways, Prime is still clunkier than earlier versions. I find I have to leave the keyboard, grab the mouse do some clicking on the document and then resume typing to add every new region.I generally like to create my documents in two columns: equations in one, and text describing them right beside, but nicely aligned. In the old days you could type an equation, press a key (possibly it was Tab) and it would skip right and you could start typing text. Another key (return??) would take you to beginning of a new line and you could continue. These days Tab only moves you to the next existing equation or document top, except it doesn’t even do that if you are in a text region.How can you exit a text region and get over to the beginning of the next row without grabbing the mouse. That is a lot of down and left arrows to press?What I would like isan easy keystroke to leave an region and go to th
We have been asking from Prime 9 for the possibility to have variables in Header/Footer to be able to include information like project number, name, document number, revision index etc. which are read from the excel file where all the input values are located.I mean, at the beginning of the worksheet, we have a collapsible area where we read an excel file containing the input values to be processed, including project name, number etc. but that general information is to be used in the header/footer of the workseet.Has this possibility been included in Prime 12? Or do need to continue waiting for it?P.S.: thanks for the new option header/footer different on page 1! That was also needed.
Is it possible to edit the Functions tab on the Ribbon to add additional functions, such as Piecewise Continuous?
Since the beginning of Mathcad Prime, PTC has snubbed loyal users by providing a subprime legacy file converter. It can take hours of work to tweak a converted file to get it to match the original, and you need to have a working installation of Mathcad 15 to ensure that the converted file works as intended. When are we going to get the proper file converter that we deserve?
I can’t find the way to join the event!
