Hello all,Anyone aware of any protoolkit api functions to update dimensions into the cad model and regenerate it. FYKI, i have fetched dimension from cad active model using dimension visit api call and saved into a text file already. 

Subject: Mathcad Prime 11 – Unable to Download Software After PurchaseDear PTC Support Team,I recently purchased a Student License for Mathcad Prime 11 through Cleverbridge and proxi.id. While I successfully received the license file, I am unable to download the software itself.The download page requires me to upgrade my Basic account to a higher level, which in turn asks for a Customer Number and a Sales Order Number. However, the only documentation I received from Cleverbridge is the invoice along with the Product Key.Could you please advise where I can obtain the required Customer Number and Sales Order Number, or alternatively enable the software download for my account?Thank you for your support.Best regards

Hello, I am able to load a cad part or cad assembly from windchill to creo parametric, but would it be possible to load the related cad part from a windchill wtpart with the creo OTK? Or is it possible to use windchill methods in the java code for parametric? Thx

My problem seems a variation on the one queried by the OP.  I want Creo to open in L:\Projects\Creo_Files instead of C:/users\Me*\OneDrive\Documents.  I am able to make l:\Projects\Creo_files a working directory in the environmental section of the configuration options, but that doesn't do it. I tried making the L:\Projects\Creo_files a start directory as a Property in the shortcut in windows 11, but that didn't work either.   What should I do?

Hey All,I am stuck, trying to rename some groups in my assembly file but it does not let me. Usually I can just right click, then click rename, or I can slow double click and it will let me rename a group or feature.I created a datum plane to just test it, and again cannot rename that through those means. But if I edit the plane and use the toolbox where it lets you name it, that works.So dont really know what is going wrong with the naming feature. I have restarted CREO multiple times and its been the same for a few days now.Anyone else run into this?

Can anyone help me with this issue? I’m facing problems offsetting the highlighted surfaces due to high curvature.   Kind Regards, Adnan

I want to quickly see location (on the hard drive) of the part I am working with. I work with big assemblies in different folders. Sometimes parts are the same.   With Creo it's not clear. I looked for the answers. Suggestion is to edit config file. Is that really that complicated? And how to actually edit it?    Looked at this http://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_optm/usascii/index.html#page/optm/options_modeler/fund_five_sub/Setting_config_pro_Options.html They say go to Tools > Environment. But I don't have that menu option.   Your help is highly appreciated!

I'm trying to determine if five variables are scalars or strings for installation into a unitless matrix for future use.  Shown are five separate IF expressions.  Is there a single function to condense the five IF statements into?

Sometimes you need to clean up CAD data before sharing it with a third party or you would like to update Start parts templates and remove old PDM parameters. You need to Set config.pro options: dm_emulate_ilink_sys_parameters=yes allow_create_pdm_param=yes  

Hello, I am using mathcad prime Prime 11.0.1.0.  Every time I try and print it crashes, even if I cancel the dialogue box.  Any one else seen this issue? Thanks

I want to convert part/assembly file into pvz file with custom proepview.pvr file, and i don't have a permission to change anything in "C" drive so i was planning on setting it up in a other drive but i cant find any specific setting/config... so is there any option available to set configuration for your custom recipe file??  

I have been using Mathcad Express for a while. However, my laptop with Mathcad Express had some issues. So, I purchased a new laptop and tried to install Mathcad Express on my new laptop. I uninstalled Mathcad Express in my old laptop, but I now cannot activate Mathcad Express on my new laptop. Can you help me with that? What should I do? Thank you.

When I create a new hole in a creo model, is there a way that I can default to "Type - Standard" and also have the "Size - Thread type:" already looking at the correct .hol file? Right now it defaults to "Type - Simple' and "Size - Thread type: ISO" Thanks for your help!

This is an extension of a previous post where I worked on a complex task (for me!) to calculate the soil weight and area behind a wall. referenced post and solution are located inAlgorithm-to-Calculate-Soil-Wedge-Area-Weight-and-Centroid The post was brilliantly solved by @Werner_E . At that time, the wall had a simplified geometry with just one course. Now, I need to apply similar logic to multiple courses, which requires repeating the process for each course.I would appreciate any assistance on how to adapt this logic to handle multiple courses, potentially up to 9 courses.

Hi everyone!I need to copy multi Holes as in picture. I'm using Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.7But, I didn't find out the Pattern or Multi-Copy function.Could you Instruct me the step or Document to take?Thank you

Hello, I need to download Creo Launchpad Free Trial. I entered the launchpad form on Thursday and it has been 2 business days since I have done so, so I need that downloaded ASAP. Thanks

It seems like the stock table does not consider AFX created plates, only beams. Is this correct behavior?Another thing I wonder is if there is any possibilities to export the stock length info from the model itself to a text format, so I don't need to go through a drawing to get this information?Thanks!Regards Yngve(Creo Parametric 11.0.4.0)

Goal: One drawing format which will populate specific data and not matter if the drawing model is a single part or an assembly. Using a repeat region I am trying to pass model material along with a few other items into a title block.  I can successfully make this happen byUsing 2 different formats so the repeat region calls outmbr/ptc_material/ptc_material_nameasm/mbr/ptc_material/ptc_material_nameUsing 1 format, but making all drawing models assemblies so that the item 2 always is present.Is there a way to use repeat region relations in order to have a single format with a repeat region which works if the drawing model is a part or an assembly?  I'm not sure if it is even possible, or if I simply am having an issue with syntax and formatting.

Hello Community, We have many parts that were created in an old version of Creo when there was no multi-body function yet.All of these parts have the color assigned to the part level.If I now change the material, the new material color is assigned to the body level.However, the old part color remains in the model.When I export a STEP file, the old color of the part is used and the new color of the body is ignored. Yes, I can manually delete the color from the part level, but that takes a lot of effort for each part.Is there a way to automatically remove the part appearance color from all parts?Or is there a way to apply the color to both the body and the part when assigning the material? Thank you!  

Hello,I'm having trouble activating my newly bought license for Mathcad prime 11.0. I had a license for Mathcad 10 on a different pc which worked without any trouble. Now when trying to acquire the new license for this version on a new system, it just gives me the error: "You have reached the maximum number of license requests available for your product type" I have been troubleshooting for some time now but without luck. Sincerest,Mikkel

I recently purchased a laptop running Windows 11 Home. I installed Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0 using a university license provided by my university in Denmark.The problem occurs every time I try to save or export a file — the application crashes immediately. This happens consistently and makes the software unusable for my studies.To rule out system-related issues, I have:Fully reset my laptop (clean Windows installation)Reinstalled Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0 after the resetDespite this, the problem still occurs.

After a month of experimenting and testing stability for PTC Creo, I would like to share my solution that will allow you to freely run PTC Creo on your Mac 😊Tested Requirements:These are the requirements that I have personally tested, any other version/device may not work similarly.Tested VMware Fusion Version: 13.6.4Tested 64-bit ARM Windows 11 build: 26100.4349Tested Mac Devices: Mac Mini M4 (24GB RAM), MacBook PRO M1 Pro, MacBook Pro M4 Pro, MacBook Air M3.Tested Creo Releases: Creo 10, Creo 12Tested MacOS Operating System: Tahoe 26.0.1Installation Steps:Download the latest 64-bit ARM Windows 11 build, or better, the one I listed. I sincerely recommend CrystalFetch app (it's free) for getting the ISO file.
