CAD

I've searched everywhere for an example of this, and am coming up zeros. The only thing I've found is this article:  https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS148500... and it doesn't work at all. (The "session" object isn't even instantiated in the example).Here is what I'm doing: ' Dim statements ' connection stuff ...... Set oModelDescriptor = oModelDescriptorCreate.Create(ModelType, ModelName, Null) Set oModel = oSession.RetrieveModel(oModelDescriptor)...blah blah...' do some stuff All of that ^ works fine, as I can read/set parameters, etc. I can also read the current material with this: ' get material If oModel.Type = EpfcModelType.EpfcMDL_PART Then Set part = oModel Set material = part.CurrentMaterial .Cells(iRow, colOriginalMaterial).Value = material.Name End If But I'm not having any luck at all setting a new material. I'm trying something like this, but nadda (oModel is set earlier in the procedure): ' Set material Dim part As IpfcPart Dim material As IpfcMaterial

heyycan anyone please convert this files into mathcad prime 5? i really need this for my school and i have no other options. please help me   

I am getting error this should be scalar or matrix as I am trying to evaluate it with a number 

I'm trying to create 3d contacts with curves, created with the spline tool in sketch/extrude. Is there other ways to create curves that work with 3d contacts? I'm using Creo 7.0, so would that be available in newer versions? is there a different way to get the same properties of the 3d contact tool?  Any help is appreciated.   

I am using Creo Schematics Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0some of the information from xml is not translated into a harness.

Is there a way to get usable image data out of a .tx3 file using the Creo 8 object toolkit?  this proprietary image file type is not usable outside of Creo, so i'd like to be able to pull out RGB values and any bump information if possible... 

Hi everybody. To show the problem I have I'd need to upload the assembly. How can I do that? I'm trying to make a pipe connection between two parts but when I finish with the sweeping the tube stays as green-dotted lines    

When trying to start WildFire 4.0 I get the following error.How can I run WF4 against Creo license server?  

Again, here I am asking for help in animating a chart. I can't get a moving dot/symbol moving on the red curve. In particular, I am not able to successfully define the symbol and its movement parameters in the diagram.Kind regards, Alfred Flasshaar

Hi all, I'm somewhat new to MathCad. I'm trying to use a solve block to find a solution to several co-planar triangles that have some common sides/angles.  I've got it drawn up in CAD so I can check my calcs.   In the attached sheet, everything up to the solve block is verified.  I ended up with ten variables and ten equations.  I entered all this in a solve block (very bottom of the sheet).  I'm getting a "These units are not compatible" error.   It's possible my math is wrong or that some of my equations are redundant but before I dig into that, can anyone see any obvious error I made? Like in the syntax or units? Thanks,    

I work on a pretty big creo\windchill network. When our "librarian" updates a family table (say, adds a screw) on "the network", I have a "screw" from that family table in my assembly, I update my workspace and update in session, the screw(s) from that family table that I have in my assembly revert to the generic of the family table. The only way to get back the instance I have placed is to close everything that uses that family table, erase not displayed and reopen my assembly. Which sometimes is a pain, with bigger assemblies. This has happened for quite a while now. I am sure it is not this version of Creo or Windchill, it predates the current versions we are using. Maybe there is a setting we have that is not saving family tables correctly? Frustrating. Thanks for any help. --James Windchill: Release: 11.1 M020-CPS26Creo: 8.0.5.0

I have a wide document. Whenever, I expand an area and the tool moves the horizontal bar right to shown more of the right hand side of the document. This then hides the Area expansion buttons. How can I prevent the tool from doing this? We have documents with lots of expansion areas so this makes it difficult to navigate the worksheet since it moves about on you and requires constantly moving the horizontal bar left again to browse all the Areas.  

Hi all,Is there any way I can shorten the length of the elbow in my fillet weld symbol?See attached image.Thanks

How can i create a sub assembly from an existing assembly. That i can use on another assembly.

Hello,   MC Prime 8 file attached. Thank you.  

I have defined every variable except for Lb. I thought with it being defined as an independent variable in the function, Mathcad would understand to vary it from 0 to basically infinity. If not, how do I define Lb to work like that. Thanks.

Is there a way to install creo 9 to 22 network pcs for students? I have the latest from https://www.ptc.com/en/products/education/free-software/k12-educator/thank-you  but it seems I would need to manually install this on all the pcs  

First, let me put my flak jacket on under my flame retardant suit...   I still have my 5-1/4" disk of Mathcad 1.0 from 1987.  I LOVE Mathcad.  It has served me well my entire career.  For a long time I have been right there with the other Mathcad 15 zealots on this forum.  I had the opportunity for a face-to-face meeting with the Mathcad product managers and developers about 10 years ago in Latham, MA and I told them across the conference table, "Until Prime can provide the basic requirements of a high school 2D plot (Title, labels, legend, readable axis, etc.), Mathcad Prime will be nothing more than a toy!".   There was palpable silence in the room, I can tell you.  Reflecting back, I was seriously angry because I could see that my beloved Mathcad was coming to an end and the only replacement for it was inadequate.   Then I waited.  Ten years.  Nothing.   I teach a corporate Mathcad course to get our engineers to use Mathcad

The writing of some formulas in Mathcad differs from the writing of these formulas in textbooks in mathematics.My students have learned to partially correct this.One example is in the picture.Three questions.1. Guess how my students do it! What is written in the hidden area.2. Show other examples of such a mismatch of operators in Mathcad and textbooks.3. What needs to be changed - Mathcad or textbooks?

I installed 30-day trial software on a PC as a student at Arizona State University. Today, my PC crashed, and I bought a new PC. I need help getting the software on the new PC. Thanks.   Thanks, Ian Mylenbusch

Hi,How do you automatically show model or assembly annotation feature note (General Notes) that won't be tied to a drawing view when creating new drawings?I basically want the note contained in the annotation shown in the image below to be automatically shown on the drawing format in the upper left corner as general notes when a user creates a new part or assembly drawing.  Currently you have to change to the annotate tab, expand the feature tree, pick the annotation note, right click and click show for every drawing that's created.Would there be a way to show this annotation at the format level or in a drawing template so that it's automatically shown when a new drawing created? Thanks for any help you can provide,Don A

Can we create a Part file(.Prt) using 2 Different parts from backup with Assembly positions control using Multibody option.   example: I have two different parts Models created in creo as two seperate parts, But I need to create as a single Part file. Can we create using Multi body option? If so, how we can be able to bring geometry to a part file with parametric.      

We are experiencing a new issue where the Print Screen button used to trigger Techsmith SnagIt does not work  when Creo is the active application. It used to work flawlessly, but recently stopped working. Its not a change in Creo because we have not updated Creo in 6 months Its not a change in SnagIt because we have not updated SnagIt in months (IT controlled) My best guess is a change introduced by Windows Updates, Optional Windows Updates or Manufacturer Updates in Windows 10.    We use two primary suppliers for laptops and the problem appears to be isolated to Lenovo P series laptops running Windows 10. Lenovo has its own driver update tool keeping the laptop hardware and graphics drivers up-to-date which could add to the confusion.    Our current work-around is to click on another application to trigger SnagIt, but this drops any active UI in Creo. Simple screen shots are easy, but training screen shots are now a bit harder since the active UI elements ar
