Hello, I can't get the two terms to add up. i can get the results individually. Attached is Mathcad 15 sheet. Thanks    

How to add a component level parameter to next top level assembly family table ?   

We're on Creo 4 M100 and moving to Creo 8 as part of a Windchill upgrade.  We're going thru the corporate config.pro in the loadpoint verifying options and mapkeys when this came about; !--- TURN DATUMS OFF ---mapkey df #environment;#disp dtmpln;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;!--- TURN DATUMS ON ---mapkey dn #environment;#disp dtmpln;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;!--- TURN AXES OFF ---mapkey af #environment;#disp axes;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return;!--- TURN AXES ON ---mapkey an #environment;#disp axes;#done-return;#view;#repaint;#done-return; These are some very old entries which reference the old Pro/E menu manager.  Yet, for some reason, they still work.  Is the menu manager still running in the background?    

I downloaded an iges file of a vented screw. I would like to modify it to make it longer. It is currently 8mm long, and I want it to be 50 mm long. I have tried to mirror it as a way of elongating it, but the ends don't mirror correctly.  Is there a way to cut a section off? I could copy and paste the middle threads to get to my desired length.     

Is there anyway to display the result?  I'm using ptc mathcad prime 7.0.0.0

 When I try to create a new project in Creo schematics, I get an error reading "Specified directory in location is not empty. What is causing this error? I am using Creo Schematics version 8.0.0.0.   

Hello,I am trying to recreate this model from solidworks modelmania 2013. (https://blogs.solidworks.com/tech/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/Model-Mania-2013-Phase-1-Drawing.jpg) I thought about using the shell feature for the offset walls of value '3' circled below.I believe I would be able to do this by using the shell, exclude surface feature however I was unable to do that; and it does make sense since the surface is not extended down into the other surface.In the end I decided to use non-default thickness and it worked fine. I wanted to ask how you would approach this? As always I really appreciate all your help. Using Creo 9.0

I have a set of rollers that when I drag the assembly need to adjust the angle of the rollers. I can do it in one section of the tube, but not the whole length. How do I identify the mechanisms? I did best with a 3D contact. The parts are highlighted. Move the orange assembly, the magenta rollers adjust around the cyan tube and rollers stay on each side.  This post was an admin edit and originally posted on August 11th 2023 8:27 AM

I spent a fair portion of my career taking measurements of experimental data.  When I first started the senior engineer would review the data and discard measurements that he deemed false.  Discarding data simply because you thought it was wrong struck me as very questionable and I spent a fair amount of effort developing a method (using T statistics) to identify "bad" data.   It turns out that there is a statistically rigorous calculation to do just that, developed (and published in 1852) by Benjamin Peirce.  That method is developed and demonstrated in the attached Prime 4 Express file.   Thoughts and suggestions?

How to merge multiple STEP files generated for let say CAB assembly in Creo using code.        

SO I'm making a project to calculate the surface areas of a sheet metal part that has a surface finish, two types "finish1" and "finish2", but I only have access to the free java object toolkit. I know I cannot use the surface finishes nor the annotations. I had an idea to attach a note of a specific type to a surface with a surface finish and then get the surface its attached to then get its area. Is this possible? I've tried GetAttachment() as it is a DetailNoteItem and doing GetParent which  returns with the part which I think isn't helpful as i none of the model items from that are surfaces. Is there another way?     //Surface Finishes private HashMap <String, Double> getFinishes(Solid solid){ double finish1 = 0; double finish2 = 0; HashMap <String, Double> finishes = new HashMap <String, Double>(); try { ModelItems modelItems = solid.ListItems(ModelItemType.ITEM_DTL_NOTE); for (int i = 0; i<modelItems.getarraysize

Hello Everybody, I want to update paramters before save. I am trying to use Session Action Listner, but ending up with crashpfcSession.SessionActionListener.OnBeforeModelSave Also implementation help on pfcSession.SessionActionListener.OnBeforeModelSaveNeed your help 

Estou encontrando problemas para abertura do Mathcad. Estava usando normalmente, mas de repente o programa começa a carregar e não abre. Já reinstalei e continua da mesma forma. Qual orientação para corrigir este problema?

Can anyone help me with this: In Creo 10 Illustrate, I want to move the anchor point to rotate. See a screenshot below; This contains a group of opbjects that should rotate not from the center point but from a another point so that the hinge effect is more visible. I may be overlooking something on how to move the anchor point in this version of Creo.      

Hello Everyone.From :How to plot the Fermat point of a triangle with Mathcad ?Thanks in advance for your time and help.Best Regards.Loi.

We want to use "ALT" parts (very much against my recommendations but we have to do BOM's to the specs...) and while it's easy enough to change the quantity to "ALT" or "AR" (for bulk items like sealant etc.), I'd like to actually manually change the index (EDIT:  right column listed as "ITEM") to have 2 #11's.  I'd also like to be able to keep the correct quantity for "ALT" parts since that's good information.  I've been working on it and I don't THINK it's possible, but I'm not 100% sure it can't be done.  Or if it CAN be done, can it be done without a gigantic set of relations at the table level?   Any ideas?     Thx!

In previous versions I had no problems opening Creo Parametric model files by dragging and dropping them into the graphics window from Windows File Explorer.  Now this function to open files does not work at all, not for part models and not for dragging part models into an assembly. What changed in Creo Parametric 9.0 that this function will not work??

Hi All we have several UDF defined for our daily work.in general, they are all similar build, the first "feature" is a csys on which a cut out is placed.the csys was mandatory to make the feature (cut out) flexible. now we are facing a small problem with that. if we create a sketch with point, we are not able to place the udf on one point during creating a pattern. is there any possibility to do that? actually the question is, is it possible to place csys on a point? br 

Hi experts,  this is my original equation, and I want to do the differentiate for every variable and simplify. but, I can only do it one by one, I think it takes me too much time if I have more variable in the equation. I would like to know any other methods could help me do it quickly. the attached file version is Mathcad 15. 

I am using Creo Parametric 6.0.3.0I have data file type .STP, the size about 1000 MB when I open by Creo Parametric, there are warning box show Creo is not responding. Do you have solution for open the large file or extract file(Assembly paty) to small size (sub part) ? Anyone who have experience about this issue, kindly guide me.  

Hi   We are going more and more into direction of MBD. But still we need the 2D Drawing. On thing we are searching for to improve our design/modelling process is, how can I apply in 3D modelling a saved orientation to a combination state such that any annotation appears according the saved orientation definition as soon as it is added to the combined state? So far, we need to select all the annotations from a combination state and apply the saved orientation to them.   In addition, we are looking for settings, which forces creo to take-over the saved orientation if I apply the combination state in a 2D view.   Does anybody have a solution or a hint for these questions?   PB    

Please can you help me.I bought a single user MathCAD liscence many years ago, from Adept, but have since then always had a work mathcad tool available. I have been a heavy MathCAD user and supporter in my career and still am.I am now planning retirement and wish to continue to do some work in engineering, to support a disabled peoples charity, so need occational access to mathcad again.Please can you locate what type of licence I have and advise me how to gain access to the tool again.My address would have been 21 Yeldham Lock, Chelmsford, Essex, UK. when the licence was bought and worked for Marconi / GEC...Many Thanks, Robert 🙂

I tried to use Creo 10 today, and got a license failure. I eventually found that I need to download a new license file from the license manager website, even though my hostid did not change (because PTC has upgraded my license to "10 and below" on the server side for me transparently). Got the new file and installed it. Then I found the following message in my license server:10:06:00 (ptc_d) Request denied: Client: XXX (11.19) newer than Vendor Daemon (11.17). (Version of vendor daemon is too old. (-83,21049)) The license manger installation doc is here:  https://www.ptc.com/en/support/refdoc/creo_parametric/compatibility/ptc_lms_download It has links to all the various versions, be careful to get the one you need, don't get confused like I did. 😞     

The installation files for my Mathcad 15 files are for M010 which is not supported by Windows 11. Does anyone know where I can download the M050 version?
