Hi Mathcaders,I am alittle bit confused on how to use lookup on mathcad prime 8. problem statement:I have a table of containing Steel section name and elastic section modulus as given below: In my work, I have to calculate an elastic section modulus and match with values in the table and choose the profile with the nearest upper value.  My trials:1. I used the following expression: It only compares the first digit. The answer is always AZ12 until I increasesd the calculated value to more than 2000.  2. I used the following expression ( I got it from the internet)The answer is the same as before.  Any help please?   

is there a "live chat" type support for creo? im trying to install a 30 day trial for work and i get as far as this load screen and it bombs out... not sure where to go from here?        

When I go to install the trial version I get the following error: Cannot start installer Check your network connection And I have already checked all the connection and I have changed the network but it is still the same, how could I solve it --------------------------------------------------------------------- Translated the below text from Spanish to English using google translate on 10-April-2023 at 9:31am IST, by vnamboodheri Subject:  Error de instalación versión gratuita Body: Al ir a instalar la versión de prueba me aparece el siguiente error: No se puede iniciar el instalador Compruebe su conexión de red Y ya he revisado toda la conexión y he cambiado de red pero sigue igual, como podría solucionarlo ---------------------------------------------------------------------        

I have sketch that where I control a particular angle with a parameter. The angle is between one of the default datum plane and a sketch feature. I am trying to vary the angle from 0 to 210 deg. When I try to update the angle from the initial 0deg, the model doesn't redefine automatically upon regeneration. Initially the angle is measured in anti-clockwise direction, but when I try to update the angle to anything more than 180deg, in addition to the regeneration error, the angle is also measured in clockwise direction, completely throwing off the sketch. I cannot go from 0 to 210 deg in one go. If I increase the angle first to 50deg and the to 100deg and then to 150 deg and then to 200deg, the angle would still be measured in anti-clockwise direction(the way I want it), but if I go from 0 directly to 200 deg, the angle would be measured in the clockwise direction. In teh attached pics, 0deg, 135deg & 200deg are what I require but when I change the angle directly from 0 to 300, it i

I need to increase solve speed for a large worksheet.  I click the multithreading button.  First, it is not clear how to detoggle the pick.  Second, the CPU time went up.  Under what conditions does this option work.  Or is this just a vaporware feature of P8? thank you

I have generated three plots for different z or distance now i would like to compare the width of axial maximum and the width of central maximum is the value r from 0 to the point where the cure achieves zero.  I want to normalies and assume the value achive r=0 and i want to divide all values of I of I(r=0) how its possible to do this in mathcad please help!   

We have a few utilities we run in Windchill PDMLink that allow are Role or group to run the utility with Windchill Org admin access. In this way, we allow them to do an action without giving the users themselves the ability to run the action. Now we have a utility we would like our Creo users to run. The issue we face is that the creo assemblies use models from other product lines that one Creo user does not have access to check out/check in. As a result it would take a "super user" to run the utility as the end item level or many users at lower sub-assemblies. We would like to use the same kind of work around and have the utility pass on access to Org admin to run and check out the models and check them back in. Any idea if this is possible in Creo?       

We are trying to convert MathCAD programs to MathCAD Prime 9. After the conversion the resultant graphics are not display the grid axis that the users were getting in MathCAD 15. Is this a display setting or an issue with MathCAD prime?  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0I want to do a mass export of drawings to DWG-file format. Therefor I wanted to use the "Creo Distributed Batch" - Tool with a specific configfile. But we have some multisheet drawings and I want to convert all sheets in one DWG. Currently every sheet becomes a new DWG-file. When using the export functionality of Creo itself we have the tab "Sheets" where I can select "All sheets as paper space" and then it works as expected. I did not find any documentation to implement this in a config file for using with the batch utility.Is there a parameter which i have to use or any other workaround to achieve this?

While opening any model from my workspace, when I do "open in Creo", Creo application opens up, but it doesn't show any thing just black window.   Could someone please help.            

I am trying to install a free trial of mathcad to run a calculation that was provided to me. when I open the "mathcad prime installation assistant" I get to the third step - application selection - and there is nothing in the window to chose from.

Hello,     Mathcad Prime 8 file attached.    

We are trying to get our MathCAD users to use MathCAD Prime 8 instead of MathCAD 15. When they go to open a 15 file in Prime 8, it is asking for a 15 license. We have removed all 15 licenses to force them to upgrade. Why does MathCAD Prime 8 require a MathCAd 15 license to open and convert a file? This will be a major draw back in getting the users to upgrade.  

Hello everyone! I am trying to make strip from following part with all bendings and punch forms on it.When I try to prepare or fill article it doesn't flatten punch forms on bends.The bends with punch forms are also not affected. Is there any way to do that with punch forms or bends or is there a possibilty to select punch form locations later when doing strip? I am using CREO 6.0 and PDX 12.0 Thank you for your answers! 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0After using ProMdlRename, ProObjectwindowCreate, ProMdlDisplay to rename and display the model, the [Replace in session] window will be displayed, as shown in the attachment, if this window is not displayed, is there a config control? ---------------------------------Translated from Chinese to English by vnamboodheri using google translate. Translated on 9-1-2023 at 9:22am IST. 在会话中替换使用ProMdlRename、ProObjectwindowCreate、ProMdlDisplay更名并显示模型后会显示【在会话中替换】窗口，如附件所示，如果不显示该窗口，是否有config控制？  

When an image is stored with a model under the Images tab, is there a way to save it out from the model?   

Several cities have installed arrays of microphones and use the time delay of the sound of a gunshot to triangulate the location where the shot was fired.  After several months of stumbling around I managed to get Prime Express to do this calculation.  (In my previous life a solve block would have made the job simpler.)   So let me crow a bit!  Prime 4 Express attached.

Hello.Our company had a PC that acted as a license host. Recently this PC has crashed.  We raised a virtual server in order to transfer the existing licenses to it, but the error occurs: "Upgradable products not available or already used on provided Product Code". And it is not possible to untie licenses through your personal account, because "Complience Hold".  Tell me, please, are there any other options to restore licenses?We have MathCad Prime 3.1

Hello, I want to create a table in a Creo 4.0 Paramteric drawing with (Excel) VBA and use the VB API.When I use the CCpfcTableCreateInstructions.Create() I expected to get back an object of type IpfcTableCreateInstructions (like in the PTC user Guide).But I get a object of type IDpfcTableCreateInstructions. So after many hours of try and error I am desperated. This is my code: Dim TableLocation As CpfcPoint3DDim TableCreationInstructionsFactory As CCpfcTableCreateInstructionsDim TableCreateInstructions As IpfcTableCreateInstructions Set TableLocation = New CpfcPoint3DTableLocation.Set 0, 0#TableLocation.Set 1, 0#TableLocation.Set 2, 0# Set TableCreationInstructionsFactory = New CCpfcTableCreateInstructionsSet TableCreationInstructions = TableCreationInstructionsFactory.Create(TableLocation) When I use the CCpfcTableCreateInstructions.Create() Method I get a variant of type IDpfcTableCreateInstructions back.  I use Cr

Hi,I'm trying to understand how the IFFT works.The most difficult thing to be understood by me is the reason why, having 2049 complex samples (p0) I get as a result (4096) real numbers.The complex samples are not generated by me, are the result of an algorithm written by others.So I try to understand if there is something special in those samples.I tried to compare the result with what I get with Wolfram Mathematica (sorry about that):InverseFourier[p0, FourierParameters -> {1, -1}];and I get (2049) complex numbers. To get something similar in shape I need to take the real part of those numbers.Beside that the result of the IFFT is 2048 (magic number!) larger than the result of the InverseFourier.Can anyone explain to me the reason of those "mysteries"?Thanks

Is there a way to control the orientation of wires that exit a bundle? I can't tell what is controlling the end of the bundle that makes the wires exit in a certain direction.  Any help would be appreciated.Thanks      

Hi The copy paste function is not working when I am trying to paste in word document, as I am using Student license any suggestion to copy the material.        

We just ran across the mfg_param_auto_copy_from_tool config.pro option, and it almost solves a problem for us...I just think it needs to have one more feature to it to actually be useful for our needs. For reference, here are 2 links describing the option: https://www.creosite.com/cgi-bin/find_option.cgi?srch=MFG_PARAM_AUTO_COPY_FROM_TOOL&ver=creo7&mode=config Using the Cutting Data Supplied for the Tool (ptc.com) The feature I think it is missing is the ability to control whether you want to default to rough or finish for all sequence types, not just the finish for certain types, and rough for others as specified in the links above. I think it would be most useful for every Creo user if it were included as a popup window like you already have for this feature asking the user "Would you like to update sequence parameters by copying cutting data from tool ##?". The only alternative I can come up with is to use relations as mentioned on the second link ab
