We are finishing a Trial version of Prime 9. We have a Gold Support and need to enable Prime 9 License Management. I am not sure if that should be Cloud, Floating, or Fixed.Please enable the Prime 9 License. I am familiar with the various licensing methods.

I have created a chamfer on a part using the chamfer tool but when I show model annotations in the drawing the callout is simply "C .250". I would like it to show as "45° X .250". How do I make it show that way?      

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.3.0We are trying to run the Creo Plug-in for ModelCenter and we are getting an error.Here are the errors that I facedError: Cannot open Variable Selection Form.Reason: Could not start Creo.Error: System.Exception: Got Creo error code:PRO_TK_GENERAL_ERRORat Phoenix.ProePlugin.PTCCADTool.checkStatus(Int32statusMsg)at Phoenix.ProePlugIn.PTCCADTool.Connect()at Phoneix.CADUtils.CADSession.Connect()

Hello-  I'm looking for some guidance on an analysis that I setting up inside Creo Simulate.  I'm using some contact interfaces to allow rotation about a set of pins and it seems that Creo is ignoring these interfaces without warning, but it is evident in the results.  I've added a screen shot of the problem (see below). Rotation is permissible between the red pins and the light blue parts (hence the use of contact interfaces).  With a load applied in the vertical direction (down) on the brown component, the gray actuator reacts this load and keeps it in position. This has a similar setup using contact interfaces but Creo seems to calculate this properly in the results. Can anyone offer any insight on why Creo would be ignoring these interfaces?  Any solutions that would correct this? 

Hi, Have tried all I know (which is little) for a couple of days now.  Could someone explain all the steps including how to set up the Visual C++ Community IDE steps to get the provided multiply() custom function to work in Prime 9? Cheers Terry    

Hi, I'm having trouble finding a symbolic solution I can use in an excel sheet for later use.I am aware that it's mabye impossible to find a symbolic solution. But I was hoping it was, And that you guys could help me? All the values is >0 Erik

When I try to export parts as 3mf or stl, curves, especially circles tend to be quite low poly. I don't know if this is because I am doing someting wrong or if this is just the way it is. I've had to resort to exporting as step and converting it in another programme. I am using CREO Student Edition 7.0.9.

As you can see, the diameter 26 is the dimension from the modeling.Underneath that, the orange 0.51 is a straight line sketch I made and dimensioned.Now, even though it's the same straight line, one is 26 in diameter and one is 0.51.Why is this wrong??? (The drawing is scaled 1:1 to the geometry.) Sure, I know how to temporarily swap them, via the Dimension Text setting, as shown below, but I don't want to go through the following process every time I sketch... I'm wondering if there is a way to draw a sketch and have the resulting dimensions match the ones from the modeling. 

Is there anywhere where the Creo parameter types are organized?For example,&Model_name : ???&sheet_number/&total_sheets : ???Like this... 

I am using MathCAD for the first time today, and have a problem that requires your assistance.  I have to create a waveshape, and I do so, but the points are separated by 1 unit, not the 1 microsecond units that  are the reality.  For this reason, I have no idea what the output of the FFT X axis is.  I've given it no frequency reference, so is it using 1 Hz as the basis for the difference between each point I've entered (not the truth).  I'd like to know how to get this software to accept 1 microsecond as the difference between each point that I enter.  I also need to know how to interpret the output of the FFT.  The spreadsheet is here: Re: How do I change the graph in the attached file... - PTC Community There are various example mathCAD sheets attached.  I've tried various things, but can't get them to work. Thanks. 

Hi, using Creo4 here and I am wondering if I am doing something strange but this was not quite expected: I prepared an explanatory note that is attached to geometry that is being brought in via the extern-copy-geom mechanism. But the parameters displayed by this note, which show up just fine when viewing the source model, disappear when the note is rendered in the target model: How the annotation and published geometry was prepared in the source model What the published geometry looks like in the target model   I realize that to get around this *** issue, I can craft my note to only use its own "annotation element" parameters.  And via relations, those can be made to be equal to the "original" feature and model parameters.  But that seems like twice the work...

I'm using beam elements to simulate some components. When visualizing the results I can show only the beams and show labels at the minor nodes of the beam, as seen in the image. However, the label on the node seems to get hidden. Thus, is there an easy way of offsetting the labels a little or "bringing them to the front"  of the graphics?   

I am currently using CREO 9.0 version.I was wondering how to use the OPTION window function to set the sketch shape reference element when sketching during DRAWING in CREO 7.0 version in CREO 9.0 version. (I know that the OPTION window has been removed due to the addition of the SNAPPING function).  

Is there any way to set the weight of the modeling to be automatically included when formatting the drawing?For example,When I finish modeling, I want the weight of the modeling to be automatically included in the drawing format when I create a new drawing. 

How do I change the graph in the attached file so that points are all 1 microsecond apart? Using MathCAD 9.0, PTC.  The latest.

Hello!Please help with fatal error. Occurs in various situations (sectioning, hiding components, view settings). Traceback as an attachment Creo 5.0.4.0 

Hi have successfully compiled the multiply(a,M) example custom function but have a few questions. Q1> Do you compile for x86 or x64 seeing as PTC Prime is 64 bit? Q2> Where do you find the custom functions as neither the Prime menu or the search for all functions has a section for custom functions?  Mathcad 15 search had a specific spot. Cheers Terry    

There countless ways to automate Creo, starting with templates, relations, mapkeys, trail files, the Creo API etc. all well known, used and documented. But there is one concept which I use, but hardly ever read about, and that is to use image processing with Creo. And by image processing I mean, taking a screenshot of your desktop screen, analyse it with OpenCV and/or Pytorch and then click for example on a feature. So the process would be something like this: image processing > trail file/mapkey > image processing > trail file/mapkey > image processing > trail file/mapkey .... Admittedly it is a rather silly approach, since this has the worst performance you can imagine. Originally it started as one of my isItPossibleInCreoProjects, but still I use at work regularly. Since I couldn't find much on this topic, I made a short video to demonstrate it. 

I have an old Mathcad file (14) I convert it to Prime 9 but the code does not work. Please help  

Hello, PTC community,   I defined a function in Mathcad prime 9 for plotting the displacement response (Y-axis) versus time (X-axis). This plot is for a single time period T.  I want to get the maximum displacement (Y-value) from the graph for each time period T.   For example, I want the maximum displacement values from the plot for Time period T if T= 0.02, 0.2, 4. eg T= 0.2        max. displacement: xx T:0.4          max. displacment xxx and so on.   I attached the mathcad file and it imports a text file containing earthquake data which is also attached for your reference.    I would really appreciate your help.   Thanks, Abdur    

When we run ModelCheck, I have it set to check for certain parameter values. This works fine if the value is not in the list or the parameter is not designated to Windchill. With some older files from another design group that we have inherited, the parameter may not be in the file. Is there a method to report that a parameter is not in the file?   These will report if the parameter is not designated or the value is not on the list. PRT_PARAMETER CLASSIFICATION STR EQ LIST_CLASSIFICATIONPRT_PARAMETER CLASSIFICATION NONE EQ PDM   We are running Creo 9.0.5.0 with Windchill 12.0.2.10. ModelCheck files were created with Creo 7, but I don't see any significant changes in the setup files.  

Is there an easy way to set materials for imported parts? We import a lot of customer data via STEP or IGES files and need to set either the density or the material, but they all need to be the same. The goal is to set the import files near zero and add a cube with the correct weight and CG location. I had a process in Creo 5, but we just updated to Creo 10 and that process no longer works.

You are using the ProAsmcompMdlMdlnameGet function. The document instructs you to release the variable whose name is printed to ProWstringFree(), but if you actually use it, an error will occur and you will be forced to exit.Can you tell me what to do?  ProError status; ProFeattype protype; ProMdlfileType f_type; ProFamilyMdlName f_name; status = ProFeatureTypeGet(feat, &protype); if (protype == PRO_FEAT_COMPONENT) { status = ProAsmcompMdlMdlnameGet(feat, &f_type, f_name); if (f_type == PRO_MDLFILE_PART) { ProWstringFree(f_name); } } return PRO_TK_NO_ERROR; }   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM110 I want to set 2 or more directories for formats because of the format version up (in company). Is it possible to specify multiple directories when setting the configuration to read the picture frame file?When the version of the picture frame is updated, I would like to store the picture frame in a separate folder and use it. Currently, only one frame storage folder can be loaded, so even if you save a drawing with a new frame stored in another folder, when you load the drawing again, the new frame will not be loaded and the default Displayed in status.   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM110I want to set 2 or more directories for formats because of the format version up (in company).図枠ファイルを読み込むコンフィグの設定において、複数のディレクトリを指定することは可能ですか？図枠のバージョンが上がった際、図枠を別のフォルダ

HI All, We are using different material notes n our drawing, eg, Assembly drawing notes, welding drawing notes, part material notes. Each user is typing the notes differently so to communize we exploring a option to use draft group in a separate drawing which will have all the drawing notes, we are trying to use map key "notes" to pull this note drawing and the user needs to pick the note he needs and has to position in their drawing. Could somebody help us on we can automate easily.
