Then I cannot connect with Creo API.Here are the errors that I facedpfcExceptions::XToolkitNotFoundCode:Public Shared Function ACon(sender As System.Object)'Connect to Creo... first with last saved connection data...Dim cs As String = $"c:\ptc\Creo8\connection_string.ini"TryIf File.Exists(cs) Then connection_id = File.ReadAllLines(cs).FirstOrDefault()?.Trim()local_connId = ConId.Create(connection_id)asyncConnection = ccon.ConnectById(local_connId, ".", 30)Catch ex As ExceptionIf asyncConnection IsNot Nothing AndAlso asyncConnection.IsRunning ThenasyncConnection.Disconnect(1)End IfEnd Try'If it did not work above, try to connect with std connection string, if failed kill pfclscom and it might work next loop..If asyncConnection Is Nothing ThenSys

Hi,I have 3000 Creo Part and drawings in one folder. Currently all the parts are having some free text in the drawings (Surface Treatment: Painting) , I want to change it to new free text (Surface treatment: Powder coating). Also I want to add revision for that in the same drawing. It will be two column like Revision No (A, B,C...) & Description ( Was painting). How do I do this activity in mass?

I am using creo flow analysis (creo 11.0.4) with the base license. I would like to simulate a free standing centrifugal (radial) fan in a simple air channel. How do I simulate that?I can create a fluid volume and at the locus of the fan I create a circular interface. I can now choose "fan" for that interface and add a local function as a dp-curve. So far so good. However, creo considers that fan automatically as axial fan and, therefore, the fluid flows straight through this interface. I could add swirl (radial and tangential velocity) to the fan, but I have to add these values in m/s (and I don't know these). Furthermore, I can not select the rotation direction. I saw that alternatively I could choose "rotating wall" as boundary condition if I have a solid that represents the fan blades but I could not manage to create a fan with that. I am also not interested in the flow right through/in the fan but rather through the whole channel. What is the difference between "rotating

Dear Sir/Madam,I need to perform calculations for my studies and have set up a Windows 10 computer and installed my student version of Mathcad 15. Unfortunately, Mathcad 15 cannot be activated because the license server is no longer available.Can you help me activate Mathcad 15?Thank you in advance.Best regards, Dieter

I have a code that is looking through the matrix and selects creepage based on my input parameters (PD, MG and working voltage WV). It works great....in picture 1. picture 1 Now, I want to add a linear interpolation between 2 values of the voltage. I made a variable "a" doing linear interpolation and tested it works as expected, which it do. Column variable for searching in matrix is hardcoded at the beginning for test. Now, since it work, code A (linear interpolation of the creepage) replace code B (that is using only search method w/o interpolation) in the original code. That is the only change in original code. Code A is tested it works, gives values I need but after A replaces B function that is calling creepage(WV,PD,MG) is complaining "These units are not compatible". What am I missing? I dont see any problem there. thanks Running on Mathcad Prime 11.0.1.0

What option on config.pro  OR dwg.dtl controls default table text?See attachment image for proper understanding of issue/question.  Thank you! Creo is King!!!

Hi all, I have an assembly with 4 sub-assembliesUnder this 4 Subs, i have some components I would like to obtain something like this, but automated with a BOM and special Symbol in place of BOM BalloonsBut... I tried:- Nested tables- A table with several repeat regions (one by Sub-assembly)- table with model columns Without any success.How could i obtain the above result with CREO? Regards

We have an issue with a single user that is unable to send email from within Parametric 10.0.9.0. It will save as and generate files without issue but will just close out of the program entirely when it would usually be opening Outlook. It does this with all file types. Event viewer shows xtop.exe crashing but not much in the way of info. Other users can send without issue. Outlook has been repaired and stripped of add-ins to test. It is functioning fine.

Hi,I am new to this Creo composites module, i would like to seek your help on few queries related to composites.1. While we add multiple Ply on a model, how can we change the sequence when we are trimming the ply based on my requirements. Currently the ply sequence is opposite from my expectations. Attached image for your reference.2. How do we understand what is wrong when we see the Drape status as can't able to drape in drape manager window? What should be corrected? how to analyze?3. Can we manage the length of the ply manually? likewise while we apply the first ply we should be able to manage the length or key in the length value? is this possible? ThanksNaresh

Hello, I’m having an issue in Creo Drawing:When I select a dimension and go to the Tolerance tab, all options (General, Shaft, Hole) are greyed out/uneditable.I have already enabled tolerances in the model properties.I have already retrieved ISO tolerance tables.The dimension is not a reference or driven dimension.Curiously, some drawings work fine, and their Tolerance tab is fully editable.Has anyone encountered this? How can I enable the Tolerance tab to edit tolerances in drawing dimensions?Thank you!

im a begginer and im having trouble making a cooling vent on a revolved surface ... i could just sketch the all the shape on one quarter ( mirror after ) then project it and maybe use punch or something like that to get the slots , but it seems like too much work and not really the smart thing to do , is there any other way i could do this ? not only the patterining it self is a problem but also having the pattern not cross the 120 diamter circle and the smaller circle ( the one with the hole ) , the modle comes from an exam question at the uni im learining at ... im using creo 10.9 thanks a lot

Hello,I have a cross section of a radial pump rotor with radiuses which I want to annotate the standard way with arrow and ''R8'' written for radius of 8 mm.  I can do that to other curvatures, but not to to the surfaces made by  feature ''round'' that are made on vane endings.  I tried with ''show model annotations'' but there I can find these annotations being scattered elswhere to unwanted positions. Can not move them to cross section by ''edit attachment''. Whenever I click the curve that represents cross section of a round to insert ''dimension'' nothing happens- no dimension is written and no arrow shown. Same happens for any other similarly created rounds in this cross section. Despite round being defined as round of 8 mm, I can not measure it with ''measure'' tool. What is the way to annotate such rounds on cross sections while keeping them dependant on radius defined in ''round'' feature? Best regards!     

Hello All, I’m trying to simulate torque applied to a ¼” hexagonal driver to a reduced A/F set screw. I have set the simulation up but getting very high stresses in the results. My question is does applying the ‘total load at point’ effectively divide the moment load by 6 in this case, the point created is at the centre of the hex? Due to the stress reported I suspect I may have to divide the torque value by 6 manually when setting the load up?

Hello all! I am reverse engineering radial pump rotor. I want to achieve a constant radius between pump vane and the ''casing'' - as if it is a ''round'', that fails if I try generating because of complex edge and surfaces. So basically I am asking for help/advice/past experience with how to make complex ''round'' feature on spiral-like intersection of two curved surfaces. I did it before with ''solidify'' of created quilts -but they were uneven and hard to change if I wanted different and constant radius along the intersection.   Thank you!

Hi everyone,I’m working in Windchill with parts and drawings stored in my workspace. I’ve generated the drawing PDFs, and now I’d like to link all related information—such as design calculations, supporting documents, and relevant email correspondence—to the specific part in Windchill.The goal is to have a complete design history or data package for each part, similar to how it’s managed in Teamcenter, where all associated files and communication are traceable and connected to the part.What is the best way to achieve this in Windchill?Is there a recommended workflow or structure to ensure everything stays linked and easily accessible later?Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated!Thanks,

Hello, Right now a supplier is using Creo elements direct modeling latest version and they create annotations drawing files and send .bd2 files to us. I wanted to ask if there was a way for us to open it or convert it without having to turn it into a neutral file? We tried step file but my issue is when it comes to Creo Parametric the models are broken? Is there no direct way to address this? Thank you. 

Hi everyone,I’m working with Creo 11 and trying to use the APIs ProDrawingViewDetailCreate and ProDrawingViewPartialVisibleAreaGet, both of which require a ref_point of type ProSelection. I’m facing consistent “bad input” errors and would appreciate any guidance from someone who has successfully implemented these.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Method 1: Programmatic datum point creationCreated a datum point → SuccessUsed ProPointInit → SuccessConverted using ProPointToGeomitem and Modelitem APIs → SuccessAttempted ProSelectionAlloc() → Failed to return a valid ProSelectionMethod 2: Manual selection approachCreated a datum pointSelected the point using ProSelection → SuccessPassed this selection to ProDrawingViewDetailCreate & ProDrawingViewPartialVisibleAreaGet → Both failed with “bad inputs”Method 3: Drawing entity approachCreated a point in the drawing using ProDtlEntityCreateUsed ProSelectionAlloc() → SuccessPassed it to ProDrawingViewDetailCreate & ProDrawingViewPartialVisib

Hello PTC Community. I am posting a Mathcad Prime 11.0.1.0 worksheet wherein I am evaluating certain quantities by performing element-wise multiplication and division of column vector variables. I believe that I am not doing this right.Your help will be appreciated.In MATLAB, it is .* & ./ for element-wise multiplication and division, respectively.Both the attached Mathcad & Excel sheets work together. Thank you for your assistance.
