In the thirty-day trial. Hoping this "bug" (see attached .pdf) turns out to be my mistake, because if not, PTC will have lost a customer.
Hi all,Is there anyway that all the existing instances in a family table can be deleted without having to open up each generic prt in Creo? Thanks
Hello, We are working on MBD implementation in our organization. We have created start templates to work with MBD strategy which has predefined combination states present in it.There are some default combination states which we want to lock those so that no one can delete the combination state and no one can edit the name of the combination state. Do we have any config setting or any option within Creo functionality so that we can lock those comb states? Please share any article if there is available
Hi Is there any easy way to create the NPT external Thread something similar to Internal thread just by selecting the hole location? currently we are creating the cut for the thread major dia and adding cosmetics for the pitch and minor dia. manually - we are making repetitive mistakes due to manual process. i'm using Creo 7.0.9.0
Hello I am preparing a template, in which i want to define a parameter for "Date" i.e 'Created Date" and "Modified Date" The "Created date" will be unchanged even after n number of updates, so i used a parameter "&todays_date". But problem comes for the "Modified Date", which needs to be updated for every revision of drawing updated, So for that i used "PTC_WM_MODIFIED_ON" (a parameter already available by default in <Tools>-- <Parameters> With this parameter i get Date and Time together, but i want date only. Please see the attachment for clear understanding of my question. Thank You Regards Sumeet
I have an old file that colleagues developed and they created variables like this: Rop%. I'm trying to re-create and improve some plots, which use this variable, among other similar definitions. When I retype the variable name, Mathcad tells me the variable is invalid; undefined. For the life of me, I can't figure out why. But it looks like the percent signs (%) have different fonts. So it looks like there's something different about them, but I can't replicate it. Please see attached.

Does anyone know how to reduce the file size of a MCP sheet or other ways to speed up processing? I am working on a big calculation package that reads in Excel data (~30000x15) and manipulates it various times (loads of filtering, sorting, assigning submatrices, etc.) that is going on 20-30 pages. Now the file size is almost 18mb and the sheet is moving very slow and takes a while to save. TOL and CTOL are set to defaults, and I am trying the multithreading option. Only working on one sheet at a time. Are there any methods to speed things up? Maybe purge past data once a step has been made? I don't have much experience with the clear() function, but could this be of use here? Open for suggestions. Thanks!MCP 8.0, Windows 10 Pro.
I have a list of ~500 part numbers in Microsoft Excel, which I need to document the volume of. Is there a way I can have Creo Parametric use the part number list in Excel to open the parts from Windchill, measure the volume and write the volume in the Excel file?
My Ctrl+Z on creo7.0 is not working, it stays grayed out and does not allow me to undo any steps.
I created an offset section view that basically cutoff the top and front of my model to show the inside but when I go to make the drawings either the top or front is showing. It only cuts off one either font or top and shows the other but in the model it is working perfectly and there are no errors. Is there a step I am missing when I create a view?
I am an engineer. The specialized field is a machine and electric design. I suggested a patent about the hand device of the robot recently. I want to ask an evaluation of this suggestion. The attached files are the summary of the hand device and an animation of one finger.
The EZ tolerance stack up table displays a message "calculated results are ignoring potentially significant 3D effects" and the RSS value is wrong when the hole and pin with clearance features involves in the 3D model for stack analysis.

I am trying to install a temporary mathcad prime free trial and I am not sure how to install the temporary license. Any instructions that can be provided will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I am trying to extrude a .1250 radius circle and it keeps turning into a hexagon. How can I fix this ?
I installed Creo Parametric as a trial. I have since received a training license, and have installed the license manager and applied the license. I reconfigured Creo to use 7788@caeepc003, which is the hostname of the machine where the license is installed. When I try to use the simulation functionality, I get the following message.There are some analysis/design studies in the model that require Basic Creo Simulate license. Please contact your sales representative.If I run ptcstatus I get the following.C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server>bin\ptcstatus.batDisplaying status for license file: C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin\..\licensing\license.datLicense Server is UP: C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin\..\licensing\license.datptc_d FLEXnet Publisher version: 11.17License In Use Free------- ------ ----PROE_DesignEssH Uncounted, LockedPROE_DesignEssH Uncounted, LockedMECELITEENG_License Uncounted, LockedMECELITEENG_License Uncounted
Hi, is there a manner to drawing same fillet radiuses while sketching, without use relations between dimensions?Best regards Michele Barile
Hello.I received an activation code from my university to install MathCad Prime 6.0.I can't find where to download it.I read that it is no longer available and the licences are transferred to Prime 7.0, but maybe i understood wrong.Please help me.thank you.
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.
