After interaction with Windchill check-in, a parent assembly demonstrates what I can best describe as a dynamic transparency.  Tracking with view orientation, assembly component portions that would be invisible within a mating part are visible (with display style set to any shaded version).  It's as if there's a dynamic clipping mode or transparency mode.  I have not been able to determine what settings are in effect or have changed.  Children of the parent do not demonstrate this issue.  Thanks for any assistance.

Hi,I recently posted a question about transferring Mathcad Prime 3 to a new hardware.@LucMeekes kindly guided me to the End-of-Sale Announcement and to a related FAQ where PTC clarified that licenses can be transferred for hardware replacement purposes after December 31, 2021. I was also recommended to contact PTC customer support for this.I contacted PTC customer support, but because I do not have a maintenance subscription, they reverted as follows:"The Community is the correct place for support. You already searched there, that ís great. I would suggest you create a thread under Mathcad and I am sure, one of our Engineers or Peers will guide you."Can any user or engineer from PTC help me with my Mathcad Prime 3? Please reply or message me if you think you can help!Thank you in advance.Felipe 

The existing rendering module in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling is from Lightwork.Lightwork was acquired by Siemens in 2018.Nothing has changed in the rendering module for several years and the possibilities are limited.My suggestion is to replace Lightwork with KeyShot, analogous to Creo Parametrics.

Hello, I'm a newbie to toolkit programming. I'm exporting a shrinkwrap model through toolkit. I want to add a new name to exported model. Could anyone specify how can I acheve that? My requirement is, when I click a button in Creo, user prompt should ask for a new model name. Once I enter it should assign to new model name. Is it possible?

We used to have an easy option to extract one body from another, but I am at a standstill in Creo 7..0.8.0. I need to solidify (or fill solid with shrinkwrap,) an existing import body. Shrinkwrap leaves the internal cavity. Then I need to extract this body from a fixture to be made to hold it. These are complex castings and not easy stuff like cubes and cylinders in youtube.

(I'm using Creo 8.0.3.0.  Thanks in advance for any help with this!)Hi, my situation is the following:I start with a simple single body part file. It starts out with a default PTC_SYSTEM_MTRL_PROPS material assigned. The density field is blank. When I access "Model Properties > Mass Properties > change", I see that "Assigned Material Density" is "missing" and I can't calculate the mass properties. So I adjust the Material Definition to have an arbitrary density value (1e-6 kg/mm^3). This enables me to calculate the mass properties, including mass and inertia. Next, I want to specify that the part body be 1 kg in mass. So I go to "Model Properties > Mass Properties > change > Define Properties by > Geometry and Parameters". This lets me type in a mass value of "1 kg", and when I click "calculate", it calculates the correct density, given the geometry of the part, to achieve the target mass. At this point I expect the new density of the geometry to a

Hi! I have a problem using the ProUITree function to perform keyboard input operations.Previously, I had successfully implemented the function of keyboard input text into cells using ProUIInputpanel and ProUITable controlscomponent.The documentation in the Toolkit Guide found the following related functions to implement:ProUITreeenableCellkeyboardinput (true)//Allow tree controls to respond to keyboard operationsProUITreeTreecellinputActionSet()//Set the response action for the controlProUITreeTreecellinputGet()//Get input textProUITreeNodeColumnntextSet()//Set text content But the result is that the operation function was not called after calling ProUITreeNodeColumnntextSet to set the text contentCan anyone with experience explain how to use these functions or provide sample code?thanks!

I am trying to post out a thread cycle through creo for a Haas lathe. On the cycle line itself it only posts out g76 g98 f20. I've looked through the post processor and changed a few things in the threading cycle area but nothing has changed.Any ideas? Thanks,

I just opened a ticket but this looks like a bug and I am wondering if any of you have encountered this and have a good work around. It looks like in Creo 9.0.7 its not respecting independent layer status. When I try and hide a curve in one view it effects the top drawing layer status even though it is not set as such.     We just made the jump and have found some other small issues but this is the biggest one for us.

Hi everyone, how can I replace a dimension on the view that I want, instead of the view proposed by creo? Best regards. Michele Barile I want to place the dimension proposed by this command, but not in this view, in another view.  

Hi all,   I'm running Creo 2.0 Student Edition. Under Collision Detection Settings>Optional Settings, I only have the option for "Sound Warning on Collision". I'm looking for the option to "Stop when colliding". Is this a limitation on the student edition?   Thanks in advance

Creo 7.0.10   Does anyone know how to search for sketcher dimensions or relations using the search tool? I am debugging a model with sketcher relations. I know there are two relations in the model that are sketcher relations from reviewing the message log of the part. Any search tool query that would identify the sketch or feature that is using the sketcher relations would make my life easier when dealing with these.     Do not use sketcher relations unless there is no other way to capture the design intent required. It makes debugging models convoluted. The only sketch relation that is unavoidable that I am aware of is when the trajpar parameter is used in a sweep and needs to be controlled with a relation. There may be others, if you know of one or more post it here for reference.

Hi Guys, I want to share the model to the vendor but vendor can view only they can’t measure manually and modify it. Is there any option for this? Regards, Aj

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.6.0In sheet metal mode, are there any function to set limitation of Sheetmetal to protect overlap each other when unbend?Now user use Flat pattern preview to check after finish Sheetmetal design.However, user don't want to fix after check by use Flat pattern preview.They want some command to alert overlap when during design sheetmetal on that time.Please share some technique to help me.

Hello, I'm having some trouble understanding which programming tools for Creo Parametric are free and which require licensing. When I open the "ReadMe.txt" file in the otk_java_free folder in my Creo Parametric installation, the is a note about downloading the user guide: --otk_java_free User's Guide-------------------Please refer to the PTC Creo Object TOOLKIT Java User's Guide.The User's Guide is available in a PDF format. This file is located at:<creo_loadpoint>/Common Files/otk_java_doc/otk_javaug.pdf-- When I open that document, the title is "Creo Object TOOLKIT Java" user guide and it includes a big section about licensing and needing a Creo Object Toolkit license. When I try to load the sample "InstallTest" sample I get an error trying to load it. I do NOT have a OTK Toolkit license but I do have a Creo Parametric License. Can anyone explain is this sample SHOULD be able to run on my system and maybe point me to a resource to get it running? I have

Has anyone else noticed that sometimes ModelCheck will flag a word as misspelled even though it is in the user_words dictionary file? I even cut and pasted the word from the ModelCheck results flagging it as an error into the user_words file and the next run it gets flagged again as misspelled. The word is CONTAINMENT. We are running Creo 9.0.5.0.

One legacy feature that has still not been integrated into Mathcad Prime, is the ability to provide companion XML files that integrate Custom Functions documentation into the Mathcad interface.  Legacy Mathcad would read these XML files and add the new functions to the list of internal functions in the Insert Functions panel under their own, specified Function Category.Legacy Insert Function Panel While Mathcad Prime does contain a Functions panel for inserting built-in functions (can be triggered with <F2>), it does not allow for incorporation of categorized Custom Functions into that interface. For DLLs containing a large number of Custom Functions, this can be problematic for users to know which functions to use, what they do, what parameters are needed, and the proper function syntax. I've managed to create an open-source add-in, CustFunc, that brings back the Legacy insert functions behavior for Custom functions, reading the function names, categories, syntax,
