Simplest example - start new manufacturing ASM, select user-defined work center, go to edit machine, select tool menu, select tool, change something in the view of tool, say shank diameter, hit apply,  Message "cannot dsipaly tool for current tool setup" So how can I modify existing tools?

Good morning,  I am trying to change the default name of the coordinates on my D38999 Mil Connector to match the part information. They are all listed in alphabetical order from A to lower case c. However Creo will not let me have two letter cases on my connector. How do I work around this?        

Hi All i have a weird behavior within a pattern.i created a sketch with points in each corner. on the top left, i created a slot hole with the direction as shown in picture. then i use the pattern command to pattern on the points of the sketch. the bottom right slot hole changes the direction. why does this happen?   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.0.0I want a .prt file modeled in CREO 6.0 to open in CREO 5.0. Is there any method available to export the .prt file so that it can be opened in CREO 5.0?Note: I want to retain all the features while exporting.Here are the errors that I faced<.prt file name> cannot be retrieved

As shown above I have created an table with formula but I want to show the values rather than just formula. please help.Thank you in advance.  

From the above Screenshot, I need to get the children of Left_Sleeve and Right_Sleeve.  Kindly suggest a sample code for the procedure. Thanks in advance  

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew if Creo Parametric is capable of producing drawings like this: Not sure which this drawing was produced in, but it follows the conventions I was taught during technical draftsman classes in high school, and technical sketching classes in uni. Key thing I would like to achieve- the boundary lines are thicker than internal lines, and if there is a way to make a bottom or part-overlapping edge thicker than standard outer lines that would be great too. Haven't seen anything online that relates to this. Not sure if it's even possible. Thanks!

Is there a way to change the default action in the conflict prompt from "Check out now" to "Make Read-only" for example?  

 Hi, I am trying to create the table for wind pressure on various face of the building for various pressure coefficients. the formula are shown in the header of the table, Kindly help me to create on such table as in excel where the value will be calculated based on the formulas and how to retrieve a specific value from the table.Thank you in advance for your kind help. 

Hello,I have a problem using Creo Toolkits, that is because of the .exe file executed from the toolkit keeps oppening a Windows blank CMD window and whenever I close it, Creo just crashes. I don't know if this is because something on my code though.Is there a way to hide this CMD windos from oppening? My code: #include <wfcSession.h>#include <pfcGlobal.h>#include <ProMdl.h>#include <ProSolid.h>#include <ProDrawing.h> class OTKTestCallBack : public virtual pfcUICommandActionListener{public:void OnCommand();};/* Entry */extern "C" int user_initialize(void){ pfcSession_ptr Session = pfcGetProESession(); wfcWSession_ptr wSession = wfcWSession::cast(Session); wSession->RibbonDefinitionfileLoad("format_drawing.rbn"); pfcUICommand_ptr InputCommand1 = wSession->UICreateCommand("FORMAT_DRAWING", new OTKTestCallBack());InputCommand1->Designate("msg_user.txt", "Formatar Desenho", "Formatar Desenho", "Formatar Desenho");&nbs

I'm trying to create a summary table at the end of a worksheet where I need the values of variables previously defined to come up instead of the variable name: 

Hello Everyone, I am attempting to write a 'RowSwapper' function in Prime 8. Essentially, I have a matrix 'A' in which I need to replace certain rows that are present in another matrix, 'B'. The function should take the following arguments: RowSwapper(A, B, "label"). It should generate a new matrix, called 'A_Swapped', where rows are swapped only in instances where items have the same ID (column 2) and where label="LoadCase4" (column 5). However, the function I've developed isn't ideal because it relies on matrix 'A' having a well-defined order, and that matrix 'B' maintains the same order per unique ID as they initially appear in Matrix 'A'. Furthermore, it only includes load cases equivalent to "LoadCase4". Additionally, it's time-consuming in terms of computation.  Screen shot of Matrix A and B:Desired Output Please note that I don't currently have access to Prime 9. Feel free to send me screenshots of the Prime 9 solution along with the file, which I can op

As shown above when I tried to linear interpolate the D values corresponding to h/d values of column 1. It is showing following error, Kindly help me.   

Hello, I have some difficulties to plot on a XY axes system, the efficiency of a voltage converter. I want to have on the x-ax the output current in Amps, and on the y-ax the result in % for a specific switching frequency value.The error that I got is related to the fact that the variable from the x-ax is undefined.Could you help me please to understand what is wrong? Thank you!  

 Hi, I am calculating mean wind speed at variable heights (ze) as as shown in above function.Now I want to create a table with variable heights say 10m, 15m. 20m and tabulate the corresponding wind velocity, so that i can reference it any where in the calculation and I also want to know how to extract exact data from table with the variable say like lookup functions in the excel.  

The only way I see to do it is to clear each variable individually ..... clear (x,y,z,....)  That can be a lot of typing in a large sheet and you might miss one.  I've had a few situations where I'd like to just clear everything and have a section of my worksheet act individually without any worry of using prior values but without having to relabel everything.    The documentation doesn't point to any solution, but I know there are occasionally undocumented techniques.Thanks,

As you see from the above snips the zmin is extracted from combo box of terrain category but is not recognized in the cr(ze) program.    

Currently using Creo 7, We have a standard hole note that we use all the time. &PATTERN_NO - &METRIC_SIZE &DRILL_DEPTHEQUI SP ON A &d PCD 6 - M4x0.7 ThruEqui Sp on a  PCD. The default hole callout can do all the parameters apart from the PCD. For this we have to find the driven dimension for the diameter and copy that parameter into the hole note text. Often our models have multiple hole patterns so we can't set a parameter in the model start-up. Is there any parameter that can be used like PATTERN_NO. but for the axis diameter?If not is there any work around so that the ID of the diameter can stay the same relative to the hole that it was created by?   

 Would be nice if Mathcad Prime included internal routine for the Schur and Jordan decompositions of a matrix.Has anyone developed a Mathcad Prime routine to return the Schur and Jordan decompositions of a matrix? Thanks for any help.

The percentage operator in the result is getting scaled to 1% after converting it to prime. Is there any way to avoid this ?    

When adding parameter(s) to a part for COMPARATIVE_TRACKING_INDEX.  Demo showed adding value to be applied to a feature.  System allows selection of SURFACE, QUILT, BODY etc. Is the system set-up to use these element types (How ? ) - I have had zero success when trying to add anything BUT a surface.With a complex part file that simplifies a supplier assembly or design concept I have encountered the need to add over 20 surfaces, what would be the best technique to simplify selections, (e.g.; can a quilt be created and used? ).              

Hello,I am trying to create a Toolkit in C/C++ that creates the flat Pattern feature for a Creo sheetmetal part.I tried using the method ProFeatureWithoptionsCreate() described on this article: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS69107?source=searchBut I wasn't able to figure it out what is needed for this method to work. 

On June 27, 2023 (10:00 Eastern), PTC held a Mathcad for Civil Engineers webinar. Check out the now-recorded (formerly live) webinar for opportunities to: Learn what Mathcad is Learn Mathcad use cases for civil and structural engineers Watch Mathcad demos by a guest presenter (Dr. Pat Heffernan, professor of civil engineering at the Royal Military College of Canada) Listen to the Q&A with the presenters and the then-live audience It was a fun time!Here was an excerpt:
