Hello,How to draw Nyquist Plot in Mathcad Prime?For example:   (Last 2 images are the same) For more info about Nyquist Plot: https://lpsa.swarthmore.edu/Nyquist/NyquistExamples.html 

I am using Creo 7.0, I am trying to copy my config mapkeys in Text folder. But Creo is not loading the config files every time I open Creo. 

I am using Mathcad Prime Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0Using the support page https://support.ptc.com/help/mathcad/r9.0/en/#page/PTC_Mathcad_Help/partial_differential_equations_in_solve_blocks.html#wwID0EQ5E6The following solve block should work (// denotes beginning of new line, and | denotes limits of solve block):|// u(0,t)=0// u(x,0)=s(x*pi)+1/2*sin(x*3*pi)// u.t(x,t)=1/4*u.xx(x,t)-1/2*u.xx(x,t)// pdesolve(u,x,[0],t,[0],10,10)// [1] [1]|where the following is intended to represent a 1x2 matrix:// [0]// [1]Instead there is an error message: "this value must be a function"Here are the errors that I faced"this value must be a function" error when attempting to use pdesolve in the above context.

I am using Creo Parametric 6.0.4.0 How do I go about having this helical sweep taper off at the ends?   

I have 28 years of hourly measured data and I need to extract the maximum value of each 12 month period from the 1st of July to the last of June. The data is in an Excel file. The first column contains the data in the form of YMD e.g. 2023-09-18. The second column contains the hour e.g. 01:00:00. The third column contains the measured parameter e.g. 18.9. Is there an "easy" way to extract the maximum of each 12 month period, using Mathcad Prime? I have the latest version. Kind regardsBjörn 

This is for Mathcad 15 although I would like to apply later to Prime 8.0.  My goals are for all of the boolean variables to be active for all portions of the sheet.  I want to defeat the top-down, left-right programming in the sheet.  See attached. 

I was handed a 43 page PDF document and told to read this to get my license installed.  The PDF document makes no sense to me - it's all gibberish as far as I'm concerned.  My guess is that this document covers every license file case for every product that PTC owns.   Just so you know - I don't spend every day of a 365 day year installing licenses for PTC products.   I install my license once a year.  I'm just not going to remember how it works for my case.   It would be easier if I was handed the text license file.  That's what other companies do.  Why Can't PTC just email me the license file and skip all the convoluted hoopla?   So, how I'm I going to get my license file?  Please.  

So i had to do some work in laplace. I used matlab instead because mathcad couldnt figure out the answer. My matlab script does it no problem and returns the equation in this attached sheet. I have removed the numbers for simplicity. This is the time domain inverse laplace equation.  The answer is correct. When i input the number i get what i expect. the problem is, i need this to be in mathcad to go with some other work.When i add it to mathcad, it does not like the units. The sheet i have attached is just doing the math with the units to show where the problem is. Mathcad is upset because in a certain part of the equation its multiplying Volts by ohms This is just a fact of what the inverse laplace is. The answer of the equation should have units of seconds.  I have no idea how to make this work. Im sure there is some trick to this. Can someone lend a hand?

I have a drawing with multiple sheets. Sheet one has a master assembly and the subsequent sheets have sub-assemblies that belong to the master assembly. Sheet 1 behaves correctly, but the parameters on other sheets doesn't behave as expected. When I create a new sheet, the parameters in the table in the new sheet will be linked to whatever model is on the current sheet. When I try to edit the parameters in the new sheet, they have some random references attached, for example scale parameter would be "&scale:115", not sure where the number 115 come from, so if I edit this number out, then the scale is representative of the current active model. Is there anyway the sheets display parameters that are active on the respective sheets? I work around by individually removing the reference the parameters on every sheet. Currently, every parameter in the title block-title, scale, mass, drawing number etc. retain a reference to the model from the previous sheet.  

Hello,I'm using the Zemax opticbuilder add-in with Creo student edition. One of the great features of this add-in is the generation of 2d drawings based on iso standards. Unfortunately, the template can be used only with a commercial license even if our Zemax license is an educational one... with the agreement of Zemax, would it be possible for you to make the template compatible with the student edition? Cheers

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.0.0Hello, I just made below mapkey yesterday. And I want modify it, I want add something between them.....sadly I can't remember how I did it...can you explain them ??mapkey ac @MAPKEY_LABELauto color;\mapkey(continued) ~ Select `main_dlg_cur` `View:ProCmdViewGallery`;\mapkey(continued) ~ Select `main_dlg_cur` \mapkey(continued) `ProCmdViewGallery_layoutph.palette_holder.clearAppearance`;\mapkey(continued) ~ Close `main_dlg_cur` \mapkey(continued) `ProCmdViewGallery_layoutph.palette_holder.clearAppearance`;\mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `main_dlg_cur` `clearAllAppearance`;\mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `UI Message Dialog` `yes`;

Hello,Might be a beginner's question but how and where do I edit the messages that are printed to Message log?  In my local CAD environment I have created a mapkey that performs operation X. I want to print a message like: "Execution of Operation X" when I use the mapkey.  Picture below depicts examples of printed messages. How and where I do edit these? I use Creo 4.0.Thanks in advance!

Hi, recently changed to Creo 10.0 and noticed that the "standard color" for start templates is not the usual grey anymore. Instead volume parts are kind of lilac, while sheetmetalparts are slighly green. Is there anyway to change this back to the standard grey? I could of course color the templates now, but all of my older projects look lilac and green.

Good day.   I have a problem with Assembly drawings in CREO 10.0. Some lines/edges of parts that have been imported as STEP models show up in an assembly drawing even when behind other parts. These tubes are heat shrink wraps on cable behind several other parts and... These are connectors also displaying through several other parts in the assembly. I've tried the "Import Fix" tool etc., but with no luck.   Any advice will be appreciated.                          

Hello,   does anyone know if it's possible to inject a message into the message log? Let me explain the problem I'm trying to solve and maybe someone can suggest a better solution. We have a start tool which sends the users the right configurations upon startup. And with that the configurations they get are based on groups. So what we would like to display somewhere inside Creo is which group the users has started with.    thanks, Bruce

Hi all, I am working in Creo 9.0.1.0 and when I measure a feature part, then copy the measurement, it seems that Creo does not copy the value. I have tried Ctrl + C to no avail, and right click, copy to no avail. I have tried copying other things on my computer and there's no problem with it. Ctrl + C clearly works in Creo as I can copy and paste a datum plane with it, for example. Any idea why I am unable to copy a measurement? It is breaking my workflow as I need to manually write down the number then retype it where I want to use it. Thank you,Jeff Houston

Attempting to design a sheet metal box for an electrical enclosure.  Will end up needing to be watertight, so trying to avoid large gaps in corners on the flat wall so they can be welded closed.  Using the "Flat" tool creates these large corner gaps.  Any ideas? 

In Creo View version 5.x the lines on the aforementioned 4K-monitor are extremely thin (I assume the same would be true for Creo). This is especially the case for HLR view. The screen is a 4K monitor measuring 24" and having 196 dpi.   Is there an option in Creo View to increase the line width? If not, I suggest adding this, because the lines on high-resolution devices simply get too thin if kept at one pixel line width.

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to do this? If I have a fully formed sheetmetal part and I want the driving surface to be on the opposite side from where it is now? Duckduckgo finds a question regarding exactly that in the forum, but for some reason it has been "archived" and I can't read it. https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Change-driving-surface-on-sheetmetal-part/td-p/92134  

Hello,  We are leveraging Creo Illustrate with our CAD data coming from CATIA (not integrated with Windchill). When we import a CATIA file into Creo Illustrate, the following parts of the CATproduct are not being imported and I'm curious if there is a way to make these features import:  CATIA Named Views CATIA ScenesCATIA Functional Tolerancing & Annotations (FT&A) CapturesCATIA FT&A Views  When we import Creo files, Creo Illustrate will recognize alternate representations & combination states, which would be equivalent functionality to some of the CATIA functionality mentioned above. Does anyone know how to get these features to also import in? 

Hello everyone, I encountered problem in solving the equation which is in format of >=.I wrote the equation but there are two problems:1. the equation in format >= doesn't give straightly answer for the result of deltaP. (attached in the picture)2. there are issues with the units as the software doesn't generates units automatically which assuming it's related to the first issue mentioned in 1 as it's not giving direct answer for delta P. Please kindly advise to resolve this I attached the Xps file of this in this context.Thank you

Hello,I'm a Creo Parametric 4.0 user. I'm updating the drawing templates for my company and I would like to add repeat regions in a table. In the repeat regions, I intend to display 3D-model parameter.However, for some reason, I'm not able to add repeat regions in a couple of table cells and an error message appears. In most cells it works perfectly fine, but in some cells it really bugs out. See attached pictures. If I unmerge the large cells, I'm able to create smaller, independent regions, But I want the region to be defined in large merged cells.The error message doesn't tell why it couldn't create the repeat region, so I need your advice. How can I resolve this issue? Thanks in advance! Erik  

Hello,I need to export multiple DRWs to PDF,I tried with Creo Distributed batch but it only got a maximum of 10 DRWs,If it exceeds 10 DRWs, the process will be stopped   

We are in Creo 9 and I have a very strong feeling it is possible with a config option to set the number of decimal places only for the tolerance of a dimension independently from the dimension setting itself.  Currently our decimal places setting by default is shown on this pic. Although our config doesn't contain the default_dec_places option but the default value is 2:And compared to that I would like to set the tolerance decimal places to 3 instead of "Same As Dim".I can hardly imagine there is no config option for that, for example dim_tol_dec_places or something like that. Of course I've done some research and found these articles about tolerance decimal places, but as I understood these are not what I am looking for.  https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/r10.0/usascii/index.html#page/detail/About_Setting_Decimal_Places_for_Dim_Tol_Values.html https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/r9.0/usascii/index.html#page/detail/detail_options

Dears I've noticed that most of the licenses from our clients are tied to dongles. Mathcad Prime 7.0 can be installed, but 8.0 cannot. The licensing has been upgraded to 8.0, so is it because the license is tied to the dongle that I can't perform the installation?Or do I need to install additional software like C++ 2005? I have read through the installation documentation, but it does not explicitly mention whether the license can be tied to a dongle, or perhaps I overlooked that information.Please help clarify this for me. Thank you.
