Having issues with the solve block, "units are not compatible" I know the part that is bad is the part in the screenshot as that part was added specifically for this scenario. Would also like to simplify it as its the same equation with different Q value determined by the Q[ value. Please advise, Thank you!!

Hi all, today's question: How to pattern a pattern, and have it's associated parts follow.. the issue is this:  I have a panel with a set of PEM studs. 12 studs make up the initial pattern.  (A pattern of 12 holes on the sheet metal part for the PEM studs) I then want to repeat this Stud pattern a few times. SO, what I do is this:Create my holePattern itThen pattern the pattern Then in the assembly I constrain my PEM stud to the first hole, and patter in per 'reference'I am then stuck as to how to get the rest of the PEMs to follow the 2nd pattern. I seem to need to repeat this PEM placement & pattern for each subsequent hole pattern. Is there a better way to assemble this; so that the constrained part follows the pattern of the pattern?

When I add Connection Parameters that I want to have displayed in my Electrical Parameters Dialog box, they are saved for the whole creo session. When I close, and launch Creo again, I need to add them again.I tried saving my customization.ui file but unfortunately no joy.Is there a way to save this model tree settings for these specific cabling dialog boxes.I am on Creo Parametric 9.0.4.0  

As a eda admin, would like to check on PTC_D v10.8 vendor daemon compatibility supports RHEL8 or not?with the same version does it supports to ens192 network card or still it will work under eth0.If not please share the latest vendor daemon packages to get it activated

I am in a urgent need to open some 'old' Mathcad 15 files. Who can help me by opening these files and unlock the details? If possible, I would like to have these details converted to Mathcad PRIME.  You would do me a great favor!!

Hi all, I ask the community before PTC...We use CREO 7.0.2.0.We use datum point in a sketch, to figure location of several concrete mass.We put an hole table, edit the point tag according the CS21713 tips But in the drawing, we would like to show them using a leader note for making a visual link between the hole table and the view.How can we retrieve the point name in the leader note?I try the &Name but it doesn't work.Second question:In the table hole, can we use relation, like in repeat region?We would like to use a relation in order to simplify the name of each point.For example:Point name : 001_SE08_114Point name simplified : SE08 Regards

I have old Creo 4.0 parts and Hiding a Layer does NOT affect the visibility of those layer-controlled items in the Model Tree. I suppose it's a "New Feature!" that turning off the datum plane layer suddenly makes my planes in my Model Tree suddenly disappear, light grey on white... but I call that a "BUG".   And I want it off. There's gotta be a config.pro option that helps make my Creo 9.0 more usable ???  please?   

Is there a way to search for face parts in the structure browser?  I would like to isolate all face parts so they can be repaired after import.   Thanks   Tom

Hello,I have a question about manufacturing family parts.I have 2 parts ruled by a family table. Simple parts, one with a M8 threaded hole and the other with a 8.4 countersink hole. This is the only difference between the 2 versions.The 2 versions/functions cannot cohexist in the generic part because the threaded hole and the countersink are both chamfered. The geometry for the chamfer on the threaded hole is destroy by the countersink fonction and vice versa for the chamfer and the countersink. In the generic part ONLY i am forced to desacivate one of the 2 fonctions. No problem with childs parts. Due to this specification is it possible to have one manufacuring assembly with a "selection " version threaded or version 8.4 ? Or am i forced to have 2 manufacuring assembly with both "child" parts ? Thanks in advance

Hi, when running ptcstatus.bat from a users PC, it writes "counted" at all licenses.    running it from the server it writes who are using the license and etc. Any one know what setting to adjust.  I guess it is either the VPN or Firewall that need to allow access.   I hope someone can help me, thanks

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM150INTRALINK：11.1 M020-CPS19Creo：4.0 M150If I lock a part in the workspace, I can't modify the hatch interval of that part with DRW.Is this normal?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode 8.0.7.0Hi,While running a Multi-Objective Design Study, we find that a regen backup of the model is stored in the working directory before being deleted.We do not have "regen_backup_using_disk" set to "yes" in our config file, so this was surprising to see. Is it possible to turn off this feature of temporarily saving a backup?The Study is 20+ hours and we're wondering if turning this off will reduce this time?Thank you.

How do you export multiple Creo Illustrate figures to a PDF?

For an animation, you can move the cursor to whatever time you want within the animation.For sequences you can only move forward and backward. Is there a way to get to a specific time within a sequence animation similar to an animation?

Hi all, I've got an issue with licensing MathCAD 7 Prime. When starting MathCAD 7 Prime, only the express version shows up. After selecting the correct license in the License Utility, the utility software states, that MathCAD 7 Prime was successfully activated. After closing the utility, MathCAD 7 Prime restarts in the express version again while showing the dialog to enter a valid license. Looking into the file C:\ProgramData\PTC\Mathcad Prime\MathcadPrime.exe.V7.Config, the property "LicenseType" is set to "NoLicense". Entering the license using the license manager was tried in two different ways. With directly providing the license file and with a license server. The result stays the same, the utility software states a successful activation. After MathCAD restart, no license is active... Is there any logging for the licensing process of MathCad 7 Prime available? Thanks

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.4.0I am making a drawing for an assembly. I want to be able to change the appearances/colors of various parts for different drawing views (the drawing views have their "Display style" set to "Shading With Edges"). This way I can highlight the different parts in each drawing view.To accomplish this I have created multiple bodies of each part. Each body has a different appearance/color assigned to it. I then have a family table in each part that can suppress/resume each one of the bodies. In the assembly I have multiple simplified representations that use the various instances of each part. This allows the different appearances/colors of each part to show up in each of the simplified representations. This works great in the model, but the different appearances/colors do not show up properly in the drawing views. The colors are all wrong in the drawing. Its like the appearances are brought into the drawing properly or something How ca

Hello PTC community,I am using Creo Simulate (version 7) to perform the following FEA study. I need to idealize four Guy wires within the genset exhaust and silencer assembly that will help stabilize the chimney when high wind loads might be experienced. The four Guy wires are meant to be attached to the frame which is supposed to be mounted onto the flange of the top most part of the chimney as shown in the pictures attached.I have tried single and multiple beam elements till now but both of them behave unnaturally. I have used a rigid connection at the top for connecting frame and the beam elements and have used fixed translation free rotation for all at the bottom point (ground) of the beam. Please see attached some of the pictures that will help communicate better.For the single beam element, when wind loading is experienced, two ropes must be in tension like state while the opposite two must behave different to these. However, all four more or less seem to behave the same? Also th

Hello   I'm using the generative design application within creo 9 (9.0.3.0). When I've done my optimization and want to look at the stresses in the final design I can't see anything, It's only one homogenous colour. This also applies to the initial simulation results.    I have tried removing all of my config options but that did not help.        Has anybody encountered something similar? Thanks in advance BR Tobias          

Hi, I'm seeing some very strange solutions in generative design. See the image below. Fixation points at the bottom and the top is connected to a now hidden body. I have a body that divides the part as  excluded body. What I get is material being generated "pressed" up against this cutting body, rather than having material straight between the fixation holes. Any idea what could cause this?    

 I have a problem with allowance of function explore study designs in Generative Design. It is grey. Is it problem in license or my generated model? I have a school education license which i use via School VPN. Version: 10.0.0.0 I've already tried to other models, as a result the same problem

When I include a component in Flat harness using "Attach to harness" in cabling module in creo It comes up in flat Harness using assemble components.But as soon as I click on regenerate in the flat file the component is disappearing.Could anyone help me with the root-cause and solution for this issue? Thanks, 

I would like to do two things with Java API.1.Can I automatically assign color to the wire (Fiber) using the property color?2. For unconnected pins, the Connection point is set to 0, but the term name is the part name that we have assigned in the CSV files. Can You say with Java API when connection point is set to 0 that it takes term name Empty?

I have a set of leaf springs that are tied together at both ends via rivets. When the springs are in their free states, they don't lie on top of each other. Thus, the assy only contacts the mating points when under strain. I presume I need to mate one end and then use a bonded interface that will pull together the needed surfaces during the simulation. I understand that this is only possible using FEM mode. I am on Creo 4, M150 I don't have a standalone solver. What are my options? 

After fixing an issue with an earlier solve block I am now finding this,Please advise and thank you!
