Hello, I have a set of 3D surfaces that I need to project onto a plane to create an extrusion; however, since the plane is at an angle to the surfaces, and the surfaces have edges using Style, they cannot be projected using the Project tool. Below is a preview of the surface viewed normal to the plane, and there is also an image where the edge is visible zoomed in. I am making a mold, or "negative" of this part, so the only task that I need to do is project these edges and extrude to each individual surface within the part. Basically, I will take the outside profile of this plane and extrude up to the surface, like the photo with the red arrows shows. I have explored unwrapping the surface using Flatten Quilt, but that did not help. I also tried a few boolean Remove operations but they also did not work to create the mold. Is there any way to project these edges onto the plane to create an extrusion? I'm using Creo Parametric 10. Let me know of any questions, and any help is

When I try to open creo parameter application in my user unable to open, it is continuously processing. But same application run in administrator working but some features not able to work. kindly help on this issue.      

I am trying to modify the text in pt_install_test to have a different button name. My .dat has text_dir set as just ./pt_install_test. Inside ./pt_install_test, I have been editing ./pt_install_test/text/usascii/msg_user.txt, such as         -Install Test Label -Install Test TEST NEW VALUE         but this change is not being reflected in the menu. I expected that this did not need a rebuild, but I've tested with rebuilds as well and the text is not changing. I am confused where it is even getting this old value from at this point.     

Does anyone have an example of using VBA (excel) to modify the value of a parameter in an instance of a part family table?      

I'm following the attached example design, but I can't tell what function/tool in Mathcad they're using. I understand the purpose of the section and what values it should return, I'm just not sure how to make Mathcad do it. It kind of looks like a programming block, but it doesn't have the bar on the right and it isn't formatted the same inside. What's tripping me up is that the value if "x" isn't constant, it's variable so I can't use simple if/else programming. I only have the file in PDF format.

HiI've just got an assignment in school, where I've to determine the design factor 'z' to a given failure probability.This baisically means that I have to find the lowest value of beta (vector containing of u values) that in combination with design parameter z gives an failure function which is equal to zero.Want to make a loop which can check for all values of z in the interval of 1 and 7. Is that possible?     

Ok, I'm new to Creo, but not parametric CAD.  I'm a one man operation and I can do the modeling part, but I was suprised there were no drawing formats supplied with Creo.  Is there a place I can get drawing formats without creating them from scratch?  Even the tutorials only show importing *.dxf for creating the formats, not from scratch.   

When initially bringing a part into an assembly using "main Window" mode, but prior to placing the part, can you change the default incoming position relative to the assembly, maybe there is a config setting that allows the new part to appear in the current window, zoomed in to the spot you want to add the new assembly item? Why am I asking - On large assemblies, the new incoming part enters the assembly model very far from where I want to place it (way off screen).  It takes a lot of mouse work to drag it over to where it needs to be placed. Why am I not using the "Separate Window" mode in assembly? Because the separate window mode is quirky and difficult to use, in my opinion - parts almost always end up upside down or end up being unassembleable forcing one to use the main-window assembly mode.

Hi folks, Just a quick question from a relatively new user of Creo.With respect to the calculated mass properties, does anyone know which inertia tensor sign convention Creo uses? I've been told by some of my seniors that it's the negative inertia tensor, but does Creo specifically state that somewhere? Thanks!     

I have a assembly of two parts which are similar ,one part is the copy of the other.While adding dimensions to this assembly in the drawing very few edges highlight for dimensioning.The other edges which I have to dimension to neither highlight nor are select able.I am on PTC Creo Elements 5.0 M260.On customer end I have checked on PTC Creo Parametric 2.0 M190,the result is same.*Windows 10 Pro is the operating system.Thanks in advance for any helpful advice. *I do know PTC Creo Elements Pro 5.0 is not compatible with Windows 10 Pro,but it runs just fine. 

I am using Creo Schematics Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0In Creo Schematics, when exporting sheets to PDF format and printing directly, all the labels are thin and non-arial bold. I'm Using default font called "font". Just upgraded from Creo 4.0 to Creo 7.0 and the thickness and font type that they export are different. In Creo 4.0 all text labels are Arial Font and bolded depending on label which is what I want. When I moved to Creo 7.0 all text labels are thin and in non-arial font no matter if you export PDF or Print Directly. Is there a configuration that I am missing? From what I have investigated myself all of the settings seem to be the same. Thanks

Something has happened to my proe wf3 installation.When I right click a part and then do < info - model> I just get a white window.The browser address listed is "proep://local_proesession?oid=6454.PRT&item=PART&id=6291484&action=info"but nothing appears.Is there a setting for this?

Hello, I am trying to program the following with some tweaks to fit my problem.I am pretty new to MathCad Prime and I am running into some problems with verifying my array index in step 2.1. Please help! Thanks! 

I have a table with a repeat region for a BOM with materials masses and COG information. The COG is being reported from the part level and is according to the part default CSY. What is the best way to get the COG information tabulated according to the top level assembly default CSY?   When doing mass properties analysis this information is given and it is in the top level CSY and units, but it is not recursive and I don't know how to get this information according to the assembly CSY into a repeat region even for flat assemblies. ------------------- MASS PROPERTIES OF COMPONENTS OF THE ASSEMBLY(in assembly units and the XXXXXXXXX.ASM coordinate frame) DENSITY MASS C.G.: X Y Z -------------------   repeat region variables I have been using: &rpt.index, &asm.mbr.name , &asm.mbr.PTC_MASTER_MATERIAL, &asm.mbr.pro_mp_mass[.7], &asm.mbr.pro_mp_cogx[.1], &asm.mbr.pro_mp_cogy[.1], &asm.mbr.pro_mp_cogz[.1],           

We recently upgraded from Creo 6 to Creo 8.0.7.0.  The cabling option is missing on the Applications tab.  How do I get the cabling option activated in Creo 8.   Thanks  

If I have a Repeat Region BOM, when I place it on an assembly drawing it uses rpt.qty to tally all the quantities. I also have a unit column that is set to EA by default. In certain instances, I have a dumb part in my assembly with a hydraulic hose part number attached to it. But if I set my units to FT instead of EA and manually type in (8) in my quantity field in the part, the repeat region has no way of seeing this and since their is only one instance of it in my assembly, the Repeat Region BOM will say 1 ft? Is their a way I can tell the Repeat Region that when the Unit Column is not set to EA, that it needs to read the quantity from the part file. Which I already have set to 8?  

I have a cheat sheet of beam equation, all expressed as functions of variables such as w, P, l, etc. The challenge arises when I apply it to compute load combinations, as the beam equation becomes visually convoluted. A reviewer would only see a series of functions, necessitating them to backtrack through calculations to identify the specific function in use. An alternative is to redefine my input variables (w, P, l, etc.) and directly solve the beam formula without using functions, essentially copying the equation. However, this becomes cumbersome due to the need to clear variables for each subsequent equation. Is there a method to explicitly solve my functions and revert them to the original equation?   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.5.0When I select gohome on Creo it ouputs G0 I need this to output G28 command is there a way to change that? I am currently using Option File Generator add on to modify post.

I want to create the sub-assembly from the main assembly which is available now.  I'm using Creo 7.0.4.0.I don't see any option to create the sub-assembly by selecting the components which i want to move to sub-assembly. Refer attached image.  Could you please suggest an efficient way to create the sub-assembly from the main assembly ?   

The disappearing cursor is being worked on, but now I have had another oddity come up in family table cells. The IT department has recommended that I check with PTC on this for possible RAM allocation error. The issues is that I had a MasterCAM logo show up in (2) of my family table cells. It is not very repeatable.   I took a screen dump so here are two snippets of the family table:     Thanks, Dale    

Hi Everyone, Any chance anyone has an idea why I am getting odd units?  I did the exponent by hand below just to check and it comes up with 1 like it should.   Thanks in advance!formula:Exponent check:  Version: PTC Mathcad Prime Express 9.0.0.0

I would like the ability to create a best fit line, circle, or arc from datum points.  I frequently have to go back and forth from NX to CREO to get this functionality.  You should be able to select graphically, or by pointset feature and create a line, circle or arc and also know the average and max deviation.

As per the original post.    HI, i have the same problem here. if i use ProSolidFeatVisit() function to visit the assembly, how do i transfer between feature and modelitem? which value of ProSolidFeatVisit() function should be used? and do you mind share your code here, many thanks.
