Hello,I've buy Stream Deck XL.Very fine for my mapkeys and folders, sub-folders.I highly recommend it !Even if it's made for video streaming, I can program all my Creo Mapkeys 😉I save a lot of time !Each key can have a picture and a text.It's ok for my text, but I'm wondering if Creo icons could be finds in Creo folders or somewhere.For exemple display planes... create new assembly...Thanks   

just checking for double posts

Attempting to measure total distance to laser cut this piece of sheetmetal.   Followed directions in another post here about unbending and then creating a cross section thru the thickness and then a datum curve thru that section.  Upon creation of the datum curve it wants to bend back the form so I can't get the curve to go thru the flat.  It's too tedious to measure each length of entity to burn picking them individually. I can't be the first one to have this issue.  I'm in Creo 4 if it matters. Thanks   

Hello everybody,I experienced something weird with Creo 7.0.8.0 and Windchill 12.0.2.1 : When I save and upload a CAD, if I am quick enough to create a new part while the upload is running, Creo crashes with a fatal error.This problem is easily reproducible (only need to be fast). Any idea what is the cause of this issue? Is there any way to tell Creo and/or Windchill not to start a download (in this case, the startpart) while another server operation is running (in this cas uploading a CAD) Thank you in advance

Need license file for legacy product reinstall as I reinstalled my operating system and no longer have access to my open and view my files. My attempt to use the tool to transfer my student license at https://support.ptc.com/appserver/lm/mathcad/call_logger/callLogger.jsp was unsuccessful saying that my product code was a trial version

Hello all, I am trying to use a orthotophic thermal material in Creo flow (v.7.0.8), but whenever I try to load the material from the main model I recieve the error: "thermal conductivity or capacity for the following materials is zero: Material name". They are of course not zero. If I change to isotrophic type it works without an issue. Can anyone tell me how to work around this? The only way I can think of doing this is by a vertical series of isotrophic thin layers to approximate the orthotrophic properties. Thanks in advance,   

Hi, I'm testing/evaluating the generative design extension in Creo 9.0 for our company. While it seems to work really well, I have issues generating a model out of it and related issues pushing it to Creo Simulate for detailed analysis. When generating the geometry part, when it kind of works, the program creates small edges and or surfaces that may be free floating, not connected along all its edges, same goes for vertices. This has happened on several parts now and furthermore, when the part is generated without errors, and I try to push it to Creo Simulate for further detailed structural analysis, more miniscule surface, edge or vertex errors are found, which prevents further analysis. Anyone experiencing similar issues and have functioning workarounds for it?

I haven't done a pipe bend drawing in years and don't have the formats/setups that I had at another company. What is the coordinate system orientation on the drawing. I seem to remember the orientation is like in my screen below shot but I am not sure.  

I have inputs which needs to be used for further calculation For ex POP1_2.1 will be used to calculate CO1_2.1 and CO1_2.1 will be used for calculating POP next series and so on. I need some help to formulate programme to carry out this on loop and give the output could someone help?  

I was given a Navisworks file (.nwd) that I need to see if my product fits as expected in the system. Any thoughts on how I can do that? I have access to several CAD programs. I just haven't found a way to get the files together. From what I read online at Autodesk, the NWD file is basically a viewer file (snapshot) so I feel I may be out of luck and I'll have to get with my customer and see if they can give me some other format. Just curious if anyone has any experience.

I bought a perpetual student license for Mathcad Prime 5.0 but I am having trouble activating it on a new machine.It seems that all old Prime versions got a free upgrade to 7.0 and I downloaded it but cannot activate my license (get a license file).I have an old license file that doesn't work because of the host id but when I try to get a new file here https://support.ptc.com/support/mathcad_supportCenterSingleUser.htmI get this message: "The trial program you are requesting is no longer available. Please visit the software product page on www.ptc.com to explore our latest versions."When I enter the product code into the installed license assistant, it fails to activate with the message: "Program ID already expired".I have sent tickets and emails in every way I cound find (months ago) and never got an answer.

Hello Community! I have a weird behavior on some models and can't understand where it can come from :With datum planes display toggle to off, I can highlight and select datum planes exactly like I would if the datum plane display was ON... Here under a gif of this behavior (I hope it will remain with this message...) :This behavior seems to be related to the model since I can't reproduce the problem on other parts or assemblies in the same Creo session. Have anyone seen that before? Any idea what could be the cause? Thank you in advance!  

Hi Is there anyone  to answer mine? I am facing an issue while assembling multiple sub assemblies.After gave a constrain to one sub assembly to another one. when i came out from edit definition assembly will goes to fixed position but we have one more degree of freedom. If i gave mate with any other, the sub assembly is not moving with respect to that one.  How to solve this issue? any one answer............!!! Thankyou.    

CREO 7 will not allow me to save and create a new model from a comparison model. Does anyone have a solution for how get around this?    

Dowel pin should have the degrees of freedom of Rotation and Translation along the axis. As the stiffness does not affect along the axis of the pin. But it will act rigid in two other shear directions  

Can I edit the default cosmetic thread note and its decimal places in Creo drawings? 

Hello everybody. Is it confirmed that in CREO 7 the GCRI methodology is not supported anymore ? I can't find the "readnewermodels.dll" file. Thanks   Pierluigi 

Could someone help me to write simple loop enumerating a new L? 

Sometimes it's helpful to be able to subtract a Creo Cabling assembly from solid geometry.  Article - CS36069 indicates the way to do that is by exporting an IGES file of the cable and then re-importing that into Creo Parametric.  It's not ideal, but it at least provides a way of doing this subtraction. Is there a way to directly reference the cabling geometry, as a Copy Geometry or Shrinkwrap feature, in a solid part and perform this boolean subtraction?  Ideally the solid part would be able to reference the Cabling assembly directly, to maintain parametric relationships.  Is the IGES export method the only option?

Hi Team,  In creo by default there are 3 decimal places in all the dimensions or what we set to.I want to preset the hole dimensioning in creo model and drawing to '2' by default without affecting the rest of the dimensioning scheme. i.e. rest of the features follow default scheme of 3 decimal. Can anyone please let me know if there is a way to define custom decimal places only for holes? I would appreciate your help with it.

Hey All,   PTC Creo Parametric Release 2.0 Date Code M170   I apologize if this is already covered but there is just a mountain of topics around family tables and instances - and none seemed to cover my issue that I could find.  I'm pretty new to creo but have experience with solidworks, inventor, and autoCAD.  I have a part file that has 2 family tables instances.  I also have an assembly that also has its own 2 family tables instances that represent sub-assembly's.  I also have a second assembly that has its own 2 family table instances that represent final assembly's.  Each family table instance of the assembly includes a specific family table instance of the part file and sub assembly file.   For example:   part1.prt (generic) part1-01.prt (instance 1) part1-02.prt (instance 2)   subassembly.asm (generic) subassembly-01.asm (instance 1), includes part1-01.prt subassembly-02.asm (instance 2), includes part1-02.prt   assembly.asm

I am using Creo Schematics 7.0 7.0.0.0pdf export does not display properly dashed lines, labels, reports (text is within case on Creo but outside case in pdf export).Only workaround so far is to use third-party pdf printer (time consuming, especially with different documents with multiple pages to print)

According to the following link, Creo 7 reads configuration files in the following order: files in Creo loadpoint, in login folder, and finally in working directory.About Configuration Files (ptc.com) I want to put my own config in the login folder but could not find it. I saved a config file in C:\Users\myusername, but it does not work. Does anyone here use login folder to save configuration files? I would be very appreciate it if you give me some advice on this. 

Dear Community members,   Does anyone have information about the cost involved for Creo Pro/Toolkit license cost. I am planning to kick start a development effort on the creo Pro/Toolkit (+ Object toolkit side). I would be interested to know the cost involved for following APIs. Would you someone can help with me. Also please refer the attachment for the specific information I am seeking.   Toolkit Web.link JLink VB Api Object Toolkit C++ Object Toolkit Java

Hi all,I have a big assembly of an Engine Test-Rig, with multiple parts and components. recently when I regenerate the model the assembly fails to retrieve with message “The connection "xxxxx" will be suppressed because of invalid constraint(s)”.and when I save it save it gave me a conflict message "Model is not regenerated"is it normal, and how can I solve this problem?
