All,I have done a bit of searching but have not found an answer.  Aside from a manual operation to exclude an item from a 2D repeat region, is there a filter that can be applied to a repeat BOM region that excludes a model that is set as "include" in the assembly? ThanksBrett

Hi,In a sketch, I draw a first datum centerline. Then I want to draw another centerline at a certain distance from the first centerline. My problem is that when creating the second centerline, CREO seems to select the nearest geometry edge to specify a distance. How to specify the first centerline as the reference for the second centerline ?Thank you for any help

I work with 3 different clients all using the same version of CREO would there be any way when opening CREO select client and save the cache in a specific folder? today I use this way. ENV=PTC_WF_ROOT=D:\Cache\%USERNAME%\PTC\ProENGINEER\Wildfire\.wf

Is there any ways to check which simplified representation i have applied to my BOM table

Hello,how to set and make default complementary angle when creating flat pattern view?Software version: Creo Parametric 6.0.5.1 Thanks in advanced!

For those who still use it, I encountered some strange behavior in the symbolic operations of mathcad 11.2a. In my decades of using mathcad, I find it hard to believe I hadn't seen this before. Using a unary negative sign in front of a vector evaluation seems to work as expected both numerically and symbolically. However, if the unary negative vector is added to another vector of the same size, the result is a nested array. I can't figure out what is going on. Am I just missing some expected behavior, or is this a bug? Lou

Hello, While saving the assembly I generally receive this error "Object has failed feature", which does not allow me to save the assembly unless I suppress the part. When I check in the part I see no error.   What could be the main issue and how to resolve it?      

Hi,  I only have access to Creo View Express.  I need line drawings, but when I try to print to pdf from HLR, the lines on the printed pdf are very weak.  Any suggestions on how to improve the line weight or other parameters that would work?  Thanks and best,  Eva

need to find q1 which is basically the values of qcza( known variable) qcza is the resistance in known depth [z]. q1 is equal to qcza when the depth is between 0.7D<z< 4D when D=0.4 and it has always to choose the minimum value until there is smaller value. the file is attached

I have z values and I want to specify an interval from the z values. I want to say that the values of layer 1 are the vales between 0.7d<z <4d when d = 0.4m .

Not a question of mathcad but Mathcad can solve this. Find the Length DE. ABCD is rectangular. 5 areas are same sizes. AB=13 cm.    

Help me please with this problem! Thru ODEs solution - see please the attach Prime 9 file. See also Great-Comet-of-1811-ODEs-solution 

I need to make mathcad to choose the minimum value when it draws the plot. The next value can't be bigger than the previous value?Please Help  

Hello every one, sorry for a stupid question but could please anybody here give me a hint or a link to download the installation file for Unix version of Creo View Express? All I was able to find were CVE Adapters for Unix, which we were unable to run on Linux. Or does anybody know how to run CVE on Unix correctly? Thank you all!

Hi.First post, LONG time mathcad user...on prime 9 now.I'm trying to fit a fairly routine function to some datapoints using genfit.I don't see where this is going wrong.genfit basically treats the guess value for 'a' as a hard constraint.So whatever I set the guess value to ('3', below), the fitted function asymtotes to that value and does not adjust 'a' to fit fit the data. What am I doing wrong?Many thanks in advance. 

In my job I have to draw some pieces that are similar to others. GD&T is very important so we use as reference a similar part to take those tolerances into account and to know what to annotate and what not to. Is there a way to make an automatic drawing or a drawing of a part using the similar part as reference, automatically? Even though I have to adjust some details it will save me a bunch of time.

command in windows :dir /b /s /a:d > folders.txt This command will output a text file with all the recursive folders found in the current path where the command runs. it will create a file with all the sub directories recursively found in the starting path, and will write this out to folders.txt. This can be used and renamed to search paths file. It will save you a lot of time for having to create this file manually.

I had to format a computer, logos after configuring CREO this option that follows print is no longer enabled, before formatting the machine was normal, and same license and everything.

Building stiffness matrix I needed a function to add one smaller matrix within a larger one. I've added some functionality to that just out of interest. Now the second one can be added or it can replace the first. It can also be fully or partially outside the first and the original matrix can either expand or the latter matrix can be cropped. Seems to be ORIGIN-neutral too. No guarantees, so test it first. Have fun! Mathcad is Prime 9.

For my school we are using Creo Parametric 6.0.2.0 student. I have done quite a few designs but have ran into a small problem.All the computers I am working with have the same version.I have saves as a .prt each time I do a few changes, and each file has like 14 saves.There are 8 different files in their own folders which are in one folder together.The problem is that out of the 8 different ones, 2 will load back into Creo 6 OK. The others just crash the program back to the desktop and saves a traceback log.I have tried on different computers including laptops and they are all doing the same.Other files are ok to use, it seems to be just these ones.I've even tried to load the first one of the same model with 14 saves and that does the same.Done a disk check - no errors. Checked a backup of each one on a removable hard drive and they do the same.Home computer is I5 8th gen, 1050 Nvidia card, plenty of ram and SSD space running windows 10. It seems weird that other files are OK

Hi,I am currently trying to do a simple contact mechanism simulation which is applied on a bouncing ball. I'm using a 3D contact to model the contact between ball and ground. However, I remark that there isn't any options to add restitution coefficient. Can you please tell me where can I add my restitution coefficient in order to make sure the ball bounces back upwards when it touches the ground. Another question, I found it's weird that the normal force of contact isn't coherent to the position of ball when it's in contact with ground (please view the graphs below). Normally the normal force should achieve a peak when the ball is in contact with the ground, but as you can see in 2nd pic, I only have a constant even at the contact time. Can you please enlighten me where did I do wrongly? P/S: the results below is achieved using 2D contact (cams), not 3D contact as mentionned above. 

hello,im trying to get best wey to round numbers with units like 5.123456789 V im using the function round(x)but shows error for units not compatible need to use the rounded value to show on summary resultsright now im using this functions to round and display the results   but this basically remove the units and convert my variable over and over to number and string, to be able to display it as result.as you can see below but i want to show that result is actually 3.33 V I also have calculations for current, and capacitance, so I need function to keep different used units. 

Hi,I'm defining a generic modular drw symbol.I have defined some of its lines and values ​​in groups to give me the opportunity to select as needed whether to display them or not.My problem is that, by inserting the symbol in the DRW, these elements are hidden/disabled by default.How can I set them to be visible by default?Thank you.P.S. I'm using Creo 9.0.6.0
