Guy's its been 5 to 10 years sense I have log-on to this website. I have no excuses..  I am using CREO 4 and have an assembly open.I have 2 parts within the assembly.I activated part number (2) from WITHIN the assembly.I copy a surface [from] PART 1 [to] PART 2.  The Surface in PART 1 is a quilt of which I only need a specific area.The surface is copied into PART 2. Good so far...The feature in the model tree has a glyph. It looks like 2 sheets of paper. good so far... In my model tree, I have selected in my Model Tree to show "FEATURE TYPE".The problem is when I try to use the FIND/SEARCH function for all "external copied" geometry. I get nothing. I tried numerous selections, only to get nothing.I need the FIND/SEARCH function to gather a list so we can work. The number 2 part (.prt) has 1158 features.  Below is a picture of my model tree. There are 2 features highlighted that are "Copied Geometry" from another part file - PART (1).  The goal is

Hello Dear Friends,   What are your pros and cons regarding the use of these two math software for now and in the future? What do you think about these two math software? What choice would you make and what would be the arguments if you had to choose between these two for the future?Thank you.Best regards,B. Cornel  

Hi all, So I was looking to start customizing my workflow so I can make parts and drawings quicker. One way I wanted to do that was to start customizing my keyboard shortcuts. I am noticing in Creo Parametric 7.0 that you can't have any keyboard shortcuts that are single keyed or are a combination of a key and Shift? With all of the different tools in Creo that I could use shortcuts for, this seems arbitrarily limiting. I do have the option "enable_single_char_keybrd_short" enabled, but whenever I try to make a shortcut with a single key or a key+Shift I get the message "Invalid shortcut. Please use another key combination." So can you just not use single key shortcuts? What's the point of that config option? Any help is appreciated! Thank you        

Team, I cannot convert an old Mathcad worksheet to a Mathcad Prime worksheet. Mathcad says "No license." But I have a license! Please help. 

Hello, For 2D Plot:         For 3D Plot:   I want to plot the point f1(2,1)=2, so the point where x=2 and y=1 on the 3D plot, and to display the point as it is showed in 2D Plot.Is it possible to do this?Mathcad Prime 8 file attached.Thank you.  

How do work with several functions one would be f(t) and another would be g(t-tau)? Mathcad Prime 9 doesn't let me use a delay. Any suggestions?   

In Mathcad prime I added a plot that needs y axis in the logorithmic scale, which I can do, but values below a certain point are meaningless and destroy the shape of the plot. Is it possible to set the Y axis limits in a Mathcad Prime 7 plot? Grid lines would also be great.

Team,  I Would like to Create a ordinate dimensions automatically, after finding the flat view in  drawing... 1. code need to find out the Flat View is present or not2. need to create automatic ordinate dimensions for the view  Please help me to solve my problemplatform: CREO  4.0 M140 / toolkit C++        

Creating a new part by mirror in an assembly, but there is a missing option (or I can't find it).  In past versions, Pro/E, you had the option to include the datums.  I don't remember what the menu pick was called exactly, (you could choose "Reference", meaning dependent, and with or without datums), but the result was a new part, geometry only, and it included mirrored datum planes from the original.  That way you have something to use for alignment etc when you put the part in other places. In Creo 9, there is the option to mirror "Geometry with Features", but that is not dependent, so it won't update with the original.  Does anyone know how to mirror the Geometry and include the datums?  Or to make the "Geometry with Features" dependent?

Using Creo 9 and Windchill 12.0.2.7. I use linenumbers from Windchill that feed my drawingtable. No issues.Now I want to add a note, in my assembly, that reads the linenumber value. So sessionID gets involved.So I am struggling with FID_N and SessionID but I cannot get it to work.it works fine to read component parameter, but since a linenumber is an upstream assembly featire, I cannot get the correct the linenumber in my note. See .png attached.Is this possible? 

The attached file ends with a division of mass/mass; yet, the result is not unitless.   Please help. Please ignore if I have a concept wrong.  The unitless result is driving me crazy.😩 Thanks for your help.   

Hi, I'm attempting to use conditional formatting to determine whether values meet certain criteria within a matrix, and then based on those results, manipulate the values within the matrix by certain formulas embedded within the if/then statements.  Right now I have the contents of the original matrix (output from the embedded excel file), and I'm attempting to use a separate variable (Mcalc) to use step functions to move in both directions within the matrix to identify each value within the matrix to confirm whether it meets certain criteria. I believe I'm getting hung up on the portion where I'm trying to use two separate step functions within the definition of a single variable. My other question relates to the embedded excel I have within the document. Is there any way to perform the calculation I have within the embedded excel (a simple formula that references two separate vectors of different lengths) outside of excel? Thanks in advance, &n

Is there a way in Creo 9.0.4.0 to turn the words back on along with the icons?   Is there a printout of the list of icons and what they mean?

Hello, I am trying to leverage Mathcad Prime's symbolic solve as an intermediary between FBD equations and a function to evaluate results. I am missing how to "push" the symbolic evaluation into a function as shown in the attached.

Can someone please help and tell me how to calculate or find the values of " exponent " here (attached) ??Thanks a lot ...  

  To whom ever is interested in, here's Yet Another Bug in Mathcad's Symbolics

Hello,Is it possible to only display the annotations (mainly for dimensions) in the drawing tree for Creo Parametric 8.0.4.0 ?In the example below, I would like to only see what is in the "Annotations" without depending on their view. 

We have been suffering from an issue with saving files back to the network over VPN. While I accept the limitations of VPN there are some significant delays with Creo v8 (and also seen earlier) when saving into a folder that already contains many other files - the delay gets worse with the larger number of files in a folder. What is notable is that if we save a new or the same part to a new folder the time is greatly reduced. We have tried testing with a default config file and it made no difference.What is also notable is that the first time you first go to open a file from a folder with many files it also takes ages to iterate and display the files to browse.Saving larger files from other applications is much faster and we can transfer mb's in seconds - saving 600kb in Creo can take over a minute at times.I am open to suggestions as to how to resolve this?

Hello Simplified Representations aren't all that simplified. If you have an assembly with a lot of patterned parts, you have to arduously include and exclude them manually, one by one. And then when you make a drawing using those Simpreps, the BOM table changes. Styles are an order of magnitude simpler to handle, and less confusing. Plus you can set if they should be shaded, transparent, wireframe or whatever. I would very much prefer to assign a Style to a drawing view.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0Hi,My customer want to know how to import rhino model (.3dm) contains attribute user texts into creo and want to access attribute user text properties inside Creo for navigation .

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.8.0Hello,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

Hi everyone, I'm trying to use the simulated fasteners feature within simulate but I am having trouble understanding the values that are being generated and output within the .RPT files. Please could someone help me understand the units it generates the results in and there magnitude. Are the results related to the principal system units? If so how? Or is some conversion needed?For example say may principle system units are: millimeter Kilogram Sec (mmKs) And my reference results for a fastener are:Fastener1_axial_force: -3.623420e+02Fastener1_axial_stress: -1.921483e+01Fastener1_bending_moment: 6.681525e+03Fastener1_bending_stress: 5.784788e+02Fastener1_intf_bend_momt: 7.016585e+04Fastener1_intf_norm_forc: -3.369641e+03Fastener1_intf_shr_forc: 3.136455e+04Fastener1_intf_tors_momt: 8.245580e+04Fastener1_sep_stress: 7.248065e+02Fastener1_shear_force: 2.094341e+03Fastener1_shear_stress: 1.110620e+02Fastener1_torsion_moment: 7.680219e+02Fastener1_torsion_stress: 3.324723e+0

Hi,We are planning to develop a Creo utility and we have chosen to go with VB api since it contains the required APIs that covers all of our requirements. But the doubt is can we use VB api in C# since it is a COM library. Thanks for your valuable replies.   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.2.0After importing images through object OLE in the format template, the image cannot be displayed when opened again, and even after creating a drawing template using the format template, the image cannot be displayed. What is the reason? How can I import PNG images with transparent backgrounds into the format template file?
