i use creo parametric 8.0.6.0 i have an assembly of a rope with a hook on it. but for on the drawing i want to rotate the hook 90 degrees so you can see its a hook.i used exploded view for this. and to move some other parts.this works for the current width of the assembly (my assembly chainges width based on a parameter).but for anny other width this rotating action seems to be done using the point(axis) in space where it used to be. resulting in the part moving away from the rope. the yellow eye nut in the picture also gets rotated 90 degrees, but this axis is in the width directon so its fine. does annyone know how to get it to use the actual rotation axis instead of the point in space it used to be in?    

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM130Good morning,I want to remove the hatching around a rib.

I have a problem about exporting my model into .pvz file. However when i attempt to export, they got an error that generates traceback.log file.You can see some attempts that i tried;- Updating graphic card driver- Assigning a parameter which enable_opengl_fbo no

HiI am using Mathcad 9.0. I want to find the current I1 and put the value into the second equation so that I can represent the equation in I=U/Z from. But I can do it manually and not in Mathcad. I have attached my mathcad file as well as the picture, how I want to express my model.Please provide your valuable time!Regards,Waqas        

Hi, I'm currently having programming issues with converted mcxd files See attached screenshot. It's not reading PRN correctly. I have the file installed and using the read data file it finds the prn file it just won't populate the data. See attached screenshot.Any info would be greatly appreciated. The university used to use mathcad 14 and i believe when converting the file the si units are not populating either.Thanks,Josh             

Hey there, I am experiencing family table error as the verify instances options is not enabled. Is there any easy way to fix them quickly or what creo tries to communicate about it? Please have a look at the attachment.

I have an AutoCad drawing and I would like to create 3d part in Creo. What is the best way to preform this operation.Thanks

Hi,I am trying to solve the following problem. I am new to pwrfit function. This is the first time trying to solve such a problem.1. Select a power fit in Mathcad to fit this data and model the metabolism rate as a function of the mass of the animal. Notice that pwrfit(vx, vy, vg) returns a vector containing the coefficients for a power curve of the form y(x)= axb+c that best approximates the data in vx and vy using guess values in vg.2. Determine the R2 value for this fit.3. Considering the fit is good, use the equation to predict the metabolism rate of a 500-kg manatee.  

Hello,On page 8 of the attached sheet, I am trying to build Mohr's circle. I dont know why the Ixymax, Ixymin,... on the plot are showing  in red boxes. Thanks,Sam  

- Creo7 - Hey, I have been stuck trying to create a parameter for this instance.I have a UNITS parameter column with predefined parameter properties aka "values" listI then have a PURCHASE parameter column which also has predefined parameter properties aka "values" list. The only connection I want, is that when the UNITS value is set to "REF", I then want the PURCHASE column to display a "-" (aka dash) Placing the following string is the closest I've got so far...If UNITS="REF"PURCHASE="-"ENDIF But this appears to just be a check and notifies me when they are off.I just want to be able to use my value drop down on the UNITS or PURCHASE parameter freely with the exception that when I select "Ref" in the UNITS column, the PURCHASE column automatically switches to "-" This seems achievable right? If it helps, my UNIT values are just: EA,  REF,  PKG,  X and the PURCHASE VALUES ARE: N/A,   X,   - Thanks in advance!

Hi,I'm having problems with using MathCAD to extract the time at which the maximum value of a function happens. I've attached a file with the example. In the attached file, after some initial setup of parameters etc on page 1, on page two I define 2 ODEs in a solve block and solve them with ODESOLVE. This seems to work, and I have plotted the outputs in several graphs. They look as I expect. At some time I get a single peak produced on the graph of f(t). I want Mathcad to tell me at what t this peak happens. I've tried using Maximize, and this gives me incorrect answers for t. I've then tried differentiating f(t) and attempting to find the root that corresponds to the peak of f(t). This works for some sets of parameters and I thought I'd cracked it. But then I change one of the parameters slightly and root stops working, giving me the error message "The ODE solution is calculated over a limited range. Choose a value within this range or expand the range".&

Hi everyone! I'm trying to model a cable that is warping in a cylinder. Practically I have 2 discs with different diameters with cables connected to each side of the disc.  When I start rotating the discs, the cable will start warping to the cylinder (without the cylinder in the middle they will all converge to a point). I was able to construct a model where I have the 2 cables tangent to the cylinder, but now I'm having troubles to design the curve wrapped into the cylindrical surface. When I try to connect the two segments, I can't place the curve on the surface, since Creo is making me select just half of that. Is there any way I can place a curve on a cylindrical surface for more than 180°? 

I have a new computer, and I want to move my Mathcad 14 Academic to it.However, it seems like getting a license over the internet isn't working anymore.Is there any way to get a new license file?

Hi! First time posting here.I have Solid Designer/One Space files dated as far back as 2004 that I am trying to recover. These files have .PKG and .SES extensions (not .PKG2 and .SES2). I have Creo Elements 8.0 but I have not been able to find a way to convert or or open these files and not much luck with searching for a solution.I still have the original dongle for Solid Designer/One Space but no longer have the install disk. This is the only way I can see as a solution would be to install the archived software and open the files and save then out as .step files.  Only problem with that... haven't been able to find the install disk.Anyone have a better solution and any suggestions? I have been trying to recover these file for years  and hopefully you guys can help me find a solution.    

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? 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 (parts almost always end up upside down or end up being unassembleable forcing one to use the main-window mode.   Thanks!

I'm using Creo 7. I want to add a note with the part number in a drawing.I use the following note when I insert the view of a new part in a multi parts drawing: &PARTNUMBERSCALA &scale The &scale refers to the general scale of the view.I saved the note in the note folder and when I place the first view of a new component I add a note and load the saved text from "Note from file":In this assembly I added many parts (they are for a welded carpentery):If I want to change the scale of a component, I have to select the component from the above list, then change the scale, then select and go back again to the main assembly.But if I place the view and I change the scale in the view options, it allows me to change the scale of the view in a fastest way:Creo adds a note with the view scale.I tried to add the part number to this note loading a saved note but it doesn't works.Only way is to add the text directly, but this is uncomfortable.I can add a note with an offset

I don´t know how or from where I can download creo direct for student. I tried download creo 10.0 because I believe I could choose creo direct version in installation phase, but only parametric version is available.      

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.0.0Have now installed Paramatric 10.0.1.0 on 3 workstations and the program opens to the Splash screen briefly but then crashes on each one - all 3 machines have the exact same issue. Nothing in the Windows Event Logs to suggest what the problem might be. Can you help me with this ASAP please?

I've got a 15 page document in Mathcad Prime 1.0. Items are strategically placed on the pages for readability and page breaks. However, when I save, close, and reload the file, my math and text regions seem to have all moved around; creating overlapping text regions and regions that flow over the page breaks.Anyone else seen this problem or have a tip on how to anchor these regions to the page between file opens?

Hello - Please let me know if it is possible to install Mathcad Prime 7 and Prime 9 on the same machine. Is there any technical limitation / restriction imposed by the PTC installer ?  RegardsVijay

I am using Creo 9.0 and the Welding Application. I have an assembly which I have put solid fillet welds into, and I utilize the automatically generated weld symbol annotation elements to put the weld symbols on the assembly drawing.For solid welds, it appears that the leader of the weld symbol defaults to attaching to one of the edges on either end of the diagonal of the weld solid. In the model,I am able to click on the weld symbol and edit the leader attachment to be on the edge that follows the root of the weld. This is so that when it appears in the drawing, the leader can point to the middle of a weld rather than one of the ends. i.e.:This would not be a problem except that when I edit the order or add fillet weld features between the others (some of the weld features become suppressed through the Insert Here functionality), the attachment is reset to the default on the edge.Is there a way to somehow set the default attachment of the leader to be on the root edge rather than on an

Is it possible to copy part of one worksheet to clipboard and paste it in another worksheet?Seems to me it is not possible to do it like it's done for example in AutoCAD.

HelloIn our Creo (Creo Parametrics 8.0) 3D environment, the text size of surface symbol cannot be changed.If I open the text style menu for the surface symbol, the value is set by 13.000272.Now I can insert a new value, force Apply or OK, but the size does not change.If I open afterwards again the text style menu, the 13.000272 is back again in the cell.Does any body have a hint how to change it after creation of the symbol?The surface symbol is applied by the use of the Annotation, Surface Finish feature. Here I find as well this value for the Height 13.000272. Thank you in advance for inputs.PB
