CAD

I may be asking too much, but I have a general question about using the root function in a series of variables and constants.  For example, how can I program the following in MATHCAD 15 to find the roots xi of the function Fi wherei=1…5Fi = (1+Ki*xi)*(xi*cot(xi)-1) + BKi = known constants for all iB is known constant  Thanks for any help.Reg

I have hundreds of MathCad 13 files and I can't start MathCad from one hour to the next. Is it possible that this data is lost forever? That would be a disaster for me. Please help me!   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate     Ich habe Hunderte von MathCad-13-Dateien und kann MathCad von einer Stunde auf die andere nicht mehr starten.- Soll es möglich sein, dass diese Daten für immer verloren sind? Das wäre für mich eine Katastrophe. Bitte helfen Sie mir!

Multibody – Clearance & Creepage Analysis,   Hello all and welcome to another blog post in the multibody series.   In today’s topic I would like to make you aware of the multibody setup possibilities for clearance and creepage analysis. With the introduction of bodies in Creo Parametric 7.0, we also introduced support of the COMPARATIVE_TRACKING_INDEX parameter for bodies. If you add it to individual bodies of a part, you can define and control the conductivity definition separately for different bodies within a part. The attached video shows an example on a fuse part by defining conductive ends as body with a different CTI value. Once the body level parameter values are defined, you can see the conductive highlighting including the metallic ends of the fuse and excluding the red inner body. (view in My Videos)   Thanks for reading & watching.  I hope it was informative. If you liked it, give it a Kudo.   Back to Creo 7.0 & 8.0+ Multibody Home:

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.4.0I'm an IT system administrator and I have a single user having an issue with the speed of loading and exporting drawings to our servers. I currently have article CS49886 up and i've investigated the files and locations mentioned in the article.1) I need to know if I just delete the whole .wf file in order to clear the cache or if there is another method.2) in the suggested technique for improving retrieval performance article I can find config.pro and the value Trail_Dir but I cannot find the value Use_tem_dire_for_isnt to alter it to yes. Please advise.  EDIT:  Thank you for your responses! I appreciate it! Clearing the .wf cache didn't seem to have any impact.Looking at the history of the ticket further what happened is that august 23rd the CREO user couldn't contact the license server even though the network remained in tact.  Ever since that point it's been slow for the user.  All other users ar

to all Doing a sanity check on the CFFT for another spectrum analyser in a 1/3 party toolIf one has a sine wave Asin(w*t) then a spectrum analysis will return an amplitude a=A/2 at w (or f= 2piw) . Am I correct?Therefore if one only has the spectrum as an output (and not the original time signal) then one can read the frequency (w or f ) and conclude that the sine wave at the freq (in the time signal )has a peak value 2a! Thanks in advanceJohn

We have the original manufacturer part number as a parameter in the Windchill wt file. I need to get that information into my drawing BOM. How can I go about this? Using Creo 7.     

I am using Creo 8.0.4.0 software, As I am creating the sketch and adding the points to find the coordinates values and adding the values in parameter, is there any other way to find out the coordinate's values of the boundary box without adding the sketch and creating points and add. I want to find out the coordinates values without creating the points. if anyone known the answer please reply.Thanks & Regards        

I'm trying to get a programmed text output from testing if a point is inside a circle.  All of the points are either secondary ohms or degrees.  The chuck of programming seems to fail if there are units attached to the numbers.  See Below.   

Hello all, We have recently been upgraded over to Creo 8.0.8.0 from Creo 6.0.6.0. There has been issues with only a single system/user having certain assemblies or their associated drawings crash, but other systems/users have no issues when attempting to access the same assemblies/drawings. The system that is having these issues is the most advanced in terms of hardware, and the other users accessing these same assemblies have not had similar issues with more dated systems. This is occurring after uninstalling and installing again, also after having our IT provide admin access to bypass any firewall issues. I am still unsure if this is an internal issue or not though, as another user just received a new laptop with not as advanced hardware but similar system securities and does not have similar crashes, so that leads me to believe it may be Creo parametric itself. I have spent much time trying to research this topic independently until a recent crash caused a JSON file t

I went through any related topic in the community and the support portal but haven't found the solution yet. I'm 99.9% sure its easily possible. We are using Creo 9.0 We have a parameter in parts and assemblies OBJECT_DESCRIPTION that is also listed as a column in our BOM. Sometimes I find rows in a BOM, with empty Description. In that case I use the Search Tool to find these components with different search criteria, but the most effective way would be to search for the parts that HAVE the OBJECT_DESCRIPTION parameter, BUT it is empty. I attached some pictures. I tried in the search for NULL or "" but that didn't help.       

Hello I'm from Brazil. Please do you have any IFX material for Parametric Creo 7? I have a course coming up and PTC doesn't have any e-learning material.Thanks!   Translated by the Community Moderation using Google Translate   Olá, sou do Brasil. Por favor, você tem algum material IFX para Creo paramétrico 7? Tenho um curso a chegar e a PTC não tem material de e-learning. Obrigado!

Hi everybody,I have calculation sheets that utilize a reference to a different sheet that contains subroutines to calculate coefficients, factors etc. for the main sheet.In Mathcad 15 this works just fine, in Mathcad Prime 9 however, an error message (see attached image) is returned by Prime, claiming that there are errors in the calculation sheet.Has anybody figured out how to find these errors? When I open the Prime sheet no indication is given that points to the error. As I said, the sheet works in Mathcad 15, so I assume that the calculation is ok.Any ideas?Raiko   

As the title says:  it there a way to achieve it?  The specific case is opening a windchill's attachment (PDF) of a wtdocument Creo 9.0.5 with Windchill 12.1.2.2 hereI thought that clicking the wheel mouse button would do the trick, but it keeps opening the pdf in the same tab of the embedded browser (normal chrome does behave correctly) Is there a place to change shortcuts/settings of the embedded browser?  

I had a circle function that was working fine until I re-defined some of the variables as Ohms-secondary.  The plot is blowing up now and I'm not sure why.  See attached.  

I've been enjoying getting more into Sheetmetal's powerful and capabilities to recreate this stamped handle assembly from my 40 year old wooden machinist chest...First, I took a photo from all directions and used it to trace and sketch the outlines. I swept the handle profile and then added a new body. I converted the first wall to Sheetmetal, and then it was quite easy to use a Sketched Form with the built-in radius on non-placement edges. I then created a hole pattern and used Intelligent fasteners to screw them in place. Then I used the built in chrome and wood grain appearances and setup render studio to make the image.Here is how I did it:Done in Creo Parametric 10

I am having trouble with the onefn function in Mathcad 15. I get double entries in the 1/f noise vector and if I take the CFFT(ofn) I get a zero as the first result. Also I do not understand the mirrored magnitude plot of the 1/f Noise. I also don’t understand why the range variable even starts at zero. That would give infinity for 1/f.

Hello, I am working with a complex CAD model that has different components, and my task is to reduce the amount of polygons and faces within this model to simplify it. How do I find the total number of polygons/surfaces for the model as a whole?  

Hello everyone,I have something to ask, and maybe it's quite easy to ask. But I couldn't find any source about it. I created a chart from curve fitting, and I want to see the chart values in a table. If it's necessary, I can add the file. 🙂  

Hello,I have drawings with erased views on different sheets. - How resume all (erased) views of current sheet only (without to select them one by one)?When using Resume View > select all, Creo recognize there is views from other sheets but not able to resume only views of current sheet.  - How select erased views with a box not by pick them?Thanks

Hello everyone 🙂 I want to do exponential regression, I saw a YouTube source about it. Link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0LbLATVboU&t=320s. However, I face some errors when I want to choose some value in a matrix. The error shown in the figure below pops up. Error: This array index is invalid. The index must be an integer, not less than ORIGIN, and not greater then the last element. Can you help me?  Note: I attached the Mathcad and Excel files.    

I had a glitch with my wireless mouse on my computer which caused it to erratically move my cursor and click. After I got my mouse disconnected and my computer back under control, all the faces on all my models seem to be permanently stuck in something that looks like the shaded curvature view, with seemingly no way to get the shading back to normal. There is also intermittently a black screen that replaces the entire view window.This video is currently being processed. Please try again in a few minutes.(view in My Videos)How can I get back to my default view settings? I tried resetting everything to default in options -> System Appearance, but this does not fix the problem. I am running Creo 10

PTC unsupported question but had to ask. Has anyone tested a later version of Creo, like Creo 7.0.10.0 with Windchill 11.0.M030? I would be interested in any issues that they may have come across during there "TEST".
