I have used the technique from the answer video posted here https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Is-there-an-easy-way-to-insert-fasteners-when-you-are-finished/m-p/816132 a lot when working with axis patterns where you have a lot of holes in a circle. I have used it with skeletons instead of multibodies though, because I do not have multibody functionality. So I would create a point in a sketch inside of the skeletonand then create an axis pattern on it using the standard axis which is perpendicular to the sketch plane, so that the model tree of my skeleton and my assembly looks like this:If I want to create different parts that use this pattern, I can create a new part within the assembly, leave it with arbitrary constraints, open it in a new window and create a copy geometry of the pattern leading point. Then I do a pattern, and it automatically creates a reference pattern. Next, I can create holes on top of the pattern leader and create a reference pattern as describ

I have gone into File -> Prepare -> Drawing Properties -> Detail Options then Drawing_Units and it is in Inches, the model is also in Inches but whenever I create dimensions for the drawings they are in mm. I have changed mm to inches everywhere and closed and restarted Creo and even made new views but the dimensions will not change from mm to inches. Any help would really be appreciated,Thanks  

I am using Creo Parametric Release 3.0 and DatecodeM090When I try and do anything in Creo such as opening a drawing, creating a dimension, editing a table, etc. the program crashes and I get a pop up dialog box that says "Fatal Error". Other engineers are able to open, check in/out and save the same models so I know it's not directly related to the model. I have tried deleting my workspace and creating a new one but still no luck. This is currently preventing me from doing my work so please let me know any potential solutions available.I have already:- updated my graphics drivers- used a new computer- used a new Windchill account- Cleared all cache- Added "enable_opengl_fbo no" to the confic.pro file (this helped for a little while but then stopped working)- Used someone else's config file who has Creo workingHere are the errors that I faced-------------------------------------------------The trace creation timestamp is: Mon Feb 27 09:36:49 23The executable build timestamp is: Thu Mar

I am trying to download my licensed issue of Mathcad . Clicking 'download' link takes me to the page to select the version I want. The only version available is PTC mathcad Prime 8.0 Student Edition - datecode 8-0-0-0 - which then states is 'unavailable'........ Thank you.

Hey Creo gurus, What is your best method to copy - move a surface (or quilt) from a CSYS location to another? Copy - Paste Special - Transformation only allows one DOF at a time. I want to just select an original and new CSYS to place a copy of this surface from CS0 to CS1.  

I'm using custom NPT thread for my one of my design. is there a way to change the standard thread depth/length to custom value ? pls. assist.       

so i just replaced a outdates part with something new that wasn't "relate" in creo now all the coordinates I made that referenced to the old part are still "working" but they are locked and im unable to redefine them. when I select the edit it shows the old reference with a yellow circle saying access locked and the reference is not found. I'm not sure how to fix this I've tried changing the path or forcing a redefine but it doesn't work. and i cant select anything different either.   

When I double-clik  in the value (dimension), I do not mange to modify it.thank for your response. Kindest regards

Trying to do a pipe array through the holes in petrol_intake_case_1 but once the sweeping is defined the solid seems to be interfering with something.      

Hi , In Creo 4.0  M140 , there is command called "Move to view " which is used to move an annotation from one view to another view , I have do this using API & I m using ProToolkit , Please help me out with solution  Regards,Kunal

I am using Creo Parametric Release 2.0 and DatecodeM020Hello,When we are using CCX analysis and importing an excel spreadsheet, it fails on some of the laptops. Could you please advise what can the the reason?See attached sceenshot for more details.

How do I add a bill of material table to a figure in creo Illustrate

I have tried many times the steps mentioned in this post - https://community.ptc.com/t5/Customization/Example-of-CreateSelectionFromString/m-p/84160#M163But I can't do it. Can you explain it in detail? Thank you.

Hi,The option Repeat Region>fix/unfix index (rpt.index) in Assembly.drw, which is used to sort the components in the desired order in the BOM table, at least for me, is quite awkward (click, write part number, confirmation) and so successively for every row of the table, i.e. every component in Assembly.asm, and at the same time make sure that you write the exact number that corresponds with the number at each "fix index", i.e. the value of the PART_NUMBER parameter, which is already previously set for each component - Part1.prt, Part2.prt, Part3.prt... during 3D modeling.That's why I ask - is there any way (perhaps with the help of some relations, some script, etc.), that in Assembly.drw, rpt.index gets the value of the parameter (PART_NUMBER) for each part/component of the assembly (automatic fix index)?P.S. Option Repeat Region>Sort Region by parameter PART_NUMBER i.e. &asm.mbr.part_number Forward, does not completely suit me for some reasons. Thank you.

Hi,    I referred to CS80810 to create a Flat-To-Screen Note."TOOLKIT for 3D Drawings" license is required.Can't I make a Flat-To-Screen Note without a "TOOLKIT for 3D Drawings" license?   Thanks, Warm Regards, SeonHoCHA

Hello, I need to have a conversation with support, licensing for ths product seems to be a joke and I am having issues. Brand new customer, just purchased the software.  no phone numbers for support is such a pain.      

Recently I notice a negative version level for product in common space. Not sure how this happened, does any body has a clue why this happened. I am using  Creo Parametric  Version 8.0.4.0 Thank you   

It's been a while since I have done modeling in CREO.  What's the best way to model square tubing?  I thought there used to be a feature that you could extrude a line with a thickness to get simple square tube.  I am just trying to sketch up a simple weldment bracket, and I don't want to put a lot of time into the modeling.  It's not necessary. Thanks in advance.  

I have a profile which I created by doing an outside blend and an inside blend, where the sketches for the inside blend reference the sketches of the outside blend. The sketches represent a rectangle which is dimensioned towards the outward blend in the x- and y-direction. I want to be able to change the wall thickness without having to go into each sketch and changing the wall thickness in both directions.Is there maybe a way to create a parameter with which I can control the wall thickness and how can I access it? Is the way I created the way in which you would do it to create a cylinder with constant wall thickness? I tried the thicken command, but when I use it, I get surfaces which are not parallel to the top plane any more.Thanks for a reply!   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.3.0Creo crashes instantly while attempting to open the attached assembly. This issue has already been resolved by employing a previous version of the file. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this.Here are the errors that I facedNo warnings or errors displayed

My license is perpetually voiding after 2 weeks of activation. I have done every fix for error 15 there is and reinstalled it multiple times. I feel frustrated with creo and would like help.

Hi,In Relations, I want to use the deformation probe value.Is it possible to set a parameter based on a simulation probe's value (creo live simulation or creo ansys simulation)? Thanks  

Hi guys, Im still little bit confused in rule based layers ... Im currently working on Clearance&Creepage analysis and I didnt find any nice tool to hide all insulator when Im setting my nets so I decide to hide all PARTS with CTI over 0 by rule based layer ... The CTI is in parametres of each part but I didnt find out how to do that ... Is it possible to make rule with parametres ?  Thanks 

 Hi! I surprisingly found that Mathcad calculates this simple expression wrong:  Both results must be the same. The second result is the correct one.It gets even worse in this case:  It seems that Mathcad accumulates floating point errors in sums, which can be easily avoided (or greatly reduced) by applying a proper summation algorithm. It costs nothing to implement, so why not do it?
