As per the original post.    Good Morning Ty,   I'd like to use CREO to calculate the Area MOI of some non-uniform geometry. Prior to doing that I wanted to test the tool on a known Area MOI before applying it to the non-uniform geometry.   What I did was took an I-beam, calculated the Area MOI and then pulled the same beam into CREO and tried to use the analysis tool to confirm that it shows me the Area Moment of Inertia in the Inertia Tensor.  But the units for the Inertia tensor are for that of just plain MOI (lb/in^2) and not the Area Moment of Inertia (in^4) - how would I measure this using Creo for a cross section?   Thanks, MW

I'm trying to relocate (move!) the datum tag from the hole to the note:Similar to this view:I'm using version 7.0.9.0Thanks In Advance (TIA)Merl 

We just recently updated to CREO 10 (10.0.2.0) and found something interesting.  when we save our models, some are being saved with the wrong owner.  We were on CREO 6 and this didnt seem to be an issue at all.  We have our file versions turned on. For example, we have a part named stud_end_locking.prt.82 with owner as "XXXXXXXX" saved on 5/18/2023.  Today, user "YYYYYYYY" saved stud_end_locking.prt.83 and the owner is displaying as "ZZZZZZZZ"If I save an assembly with say 15 different parts, some of the new versions that save will have my user name as the owner and some will have other user names as the owner, even though that other owner hasn't even been in CREO parametric.  today I saved a part and a new version was created with the owner of someone who left the company over 6 months ago.in the screenshot, i saved .82 and today i saved .83, but as you can see, the owner is not me.  The owner of .83 is someone who left the company over 6 months

Community members... I'm making a cavity and every time I make the part it comes standard with "Units"=millimeter Newton Second (mmNs) AND Precision = Absolute 0.01. I would like to create a different measurement standard. As I am in Brazil, we use millimeters and the precision would like it to be Relative 0.0012. What configuration should I use? Thank you very much!   Creo 10.0.3.0   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate         Membros da comunidade... Estou fazendo uma cavidade e toda vez que faço a peça ela vem padrão com "Unidades"=milímetro Newton Segundo (mmNs) E Precisão = Absoluto 0,01. Eu gostaria de criar um padrão de medição diferente. Como estou no Brasil, usamos milímetros e a precisão gostaria que fosse Relativa 0,0012. Qual configuração devo usar? Muito Obrigado!  Creo 10,0.3.0

I am trying to install Mathcad Prime.I cannot get past the 3rd step in the installation.

Hello - I am trying to apply a torsional load  onto a shaft in Creo Simulation Live.  I have tried several methods to apply a torque to the shaft.  For simplicity, I made a 1" diameter shaft that is 2" long.  I have one face fixed.  I tried applying a 37 in-lb moment load to the the opposite face in the z direction which is the axis of the shaft.  The XY shear stress that it returned with this method was extremely high.  Calculating by hand the shear stress should be 188 psi in the shaft.  I have the accuracy set to the maximum. I then tried applying a force of 74 lbf to a point on the bottom of the face of the shaft in the X direction in order to simulate an equivalent torque of 37 in-lbf.  Please see screenshot.  This resulted in a XY stress of 142 psi.  This result was much closer to the hand calculation of 188 psi, but is still off by 25%. What is the best method to apply a torque to a shaft in CSL?

Greetings, I am interested in trying to utilize more of the functionality of Schematics rather than just creating wire diagrams.Ultimately I'd love to be able to create a BID, and then create a CID (using the info on the BID), then create a WID. Does anyone actively do this?Would you be willing to share your process? Thank you.

HiI created a curve from equation.x = sin(t) + 2 * Sin(2*t)y = cos(t) - 2 * cos(2*t)z = -sin(3*t)I tried Scale Model but it doesn't work on a curve from an equation. Is it possible to scale the curve without modifying the equations? Thanks 

how to figure out whether the javaAPP is running before StartJLinkApplication？I want to execute the task registered in javaApp.I use  jlink to StartJLinkApplication ,but I dont know whether the app is running .If running will get error such asXToolkitInUseThen can not get the handle of JLinkApplication. Is there a way to get the handle app running? Can  invoke the task in runed jlink application  

Please include detailed documentation such as screenshots, images or video.Hi we are the old user of Mathcad, Due to some issues we had gap more than 5years, now we are back and recalling the usages.We hope it is posible to create involute profile in MATHCAD software. We tried something but could not recollect the same.This profile creation would be useful for who are designing the Gear so that they can understand the impact of correction/undercut etc.Anyone tried the same in Mathcad software is so pl.suggest the approach/methodology or is it good to prefer the some other modelling software? I request mathcad experts suggestion in this. Regards  

I have defined the more than one values for a variable.The answer 0.21 mm is wrong (0.1mm is correct value).Kindly figure out why the answer is wrong. Regards,GSVP

Hello, Currently I have been facing some errors to solve differential equations using AdamsBDF solver.Your kind help or advice will be very much appreciated.Please see the belwo images and attached file for equations and the problem with "D"_Red Circle.   Thank you.  

Hello All, I have an issue in drawings where occasionally my drawing tree will completely disappear, and is replaced by a detail tree, which is blank, I try to activate and deactivate the window to no avail. The layer tree will now only show in the model tree lower window, where as it usually resides in the upper drawing tree window. If I restart CREO the problem goes away and the drawing tree is restored.  I am curious if there is a glitch in the software or I'm inadvertently activating some kind of shortcut? 

All,Today when selecting a feature/geometry in ModelCheck report the geometry is highlighted.is it possible to change the behavior to perform "Select" ( so the feature will be selected rather than highlighted ) ?Many thanks,  

I am doing some image processing in Mathcad Prime 9.0 and the path to the image files is so long that it runs off the right side of the screen. I see a discussion from 2011 for setting a path in older versions of Mathcad (15?) but I cannot seem to find that option in Prime 9.0. Well, as you may see from my other message, I switched to MC 15, but has the same path issue until I learned that I could use character strings as variables.   So, now have two path variables and a third string name set to the file name, and I concatenate all three with "concat" in the following manner: Array := READBMP(concat(Path1,Path2,Image_78_7))    

I have come to Prime after spending many years on first the DOS version of Mathcad and the various iterations up to 14. My initial try has been frustrating...functions moved and hard to find, graphing difficult, generally too different and counterintuitive. What was wrong with the earlier versions? Perhaps I am being a grumpy old man :).

When attempting to unbend or flatten the sheet metal, I encounter the error 'Feature failed to regenerate.' The part is quite intricate with numerous bends. Despite converting it to sheet metal and attempting both unbending and flattening, both efforts resulted in the 'Feature failed to regenerate' error. I am eager to have the part flattened, and I would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this issue   

We are using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.0.0 How can we get the `ProMdl` handle of an embedded part (the part itself, not of the part occurrence) using the Pro/Toolkit API? I know that we can get the `ProMdl` handle of the part occurrence in the assembly via the assembly `ProMdl` --> `ProSolidFeatVisit` --> filter for `PRO_FEAT_COMPONENT` --> `ProAsmcompMdlGet`.But we need the `ProMdl` handle of the actual part, not of the occurrence - in order to inspect the geometry before assembly-level features were applied. For normal (non-embedded) parts, we would use:ProMdl mdl;ProError err = ProMdlFiletypeLoad(path, PRO_MDLFILE_UNUSED, PRO_B_FALSE, &mdl);This works fine for normal paths like "C:\models\PRT0001.prt.1", but for an embedded component's virtual path like "C:\models\PRT0002<<ASM0001>>.prt", it returns `PRO_TK_INVALID_NAME`. In the Creo Parametric UI, one can right-click the embedded part and click "Open" to see it in its

Hello,if the result is in feet, Is there a direct and simple way or a function to convert it to feet and inches?For example L=6.33 feet          L=6'-4" Thanks,Sam

Is there any way to measure the thickness of a helical screw flight ?

Hi all,We have a BOM table set up that works fine (no duplicates) but when adding a column for the weight it brings back in the duplicates.I guess this is to show the weight of each part and each individual duplicate part.Is there a way to not show the duplicates and the weight column to show a weight for each part?eg. if there is two of Item 5, the Qty column would show '2' but the Weight column would show the weight for one of Item 5?Creo 8 Hope that makes sense.Thanks
