Create a system parameter for appearance and allow the parameter to be changed via relations and family tables. Very similar to the way PTC_MATERIAL_NAME works.Example: PTC_APPEARANCE (string)IF COLOR_NAME == "Blue"PTC_APPEARANCE = "Blue"ENDIF This has been a problem forever. PTC, please listen to your customers and implement solutions.

Hi, Is there a way to switch orientation of chamfer dimension in drawing? I mean the chamfer dimensions showed from model, not created in drawing. (Creo 7)   Michal.  

Hello Everyone.From : To :How to simplify ---> 0 ? Thanks in advance.Regards.

Hi,I have encountered a problem. Normally, I know how to prepare a list box, but in this instance, I need to create a dynamic list box such that input from another list box influences it. Specifically, I need to create a list box asking for the “Bolt Type,” but for that, I need two inputs, similar to a real case scenario: Bolt types depend on “Standard” and “Unit System.” Please find the attached image that I saw in a PDF. Please help me to create this in Mathcad Prime. Thanks in advance. The image: 

Hello, I'm trying to test Simulate Lite within Creo2 / Creo3.I've done this a long time ago.There, I've tried e very simple part for testing.But all menus are Grey.I can't even assign a material.Someone have an idea of my problem ?Thanks

Hi Alls,I ha an an assembly (about 100 parts).I would like to make an enveloppe of this, then substrat it to first part.And keek reference for updates.It it possible without AAX ?I would like to have no interferces .  

Recently I've been downloading Gridfinity boxes from makers spaces as a .stp file as a starting point and then modifying them in Creo to create the container I want on our 3D printers.  However I'll get halfway through designing a container and then decide instead of it being a 4x6 container if I make it a 4x8 container I can fit in this extra widget.   This requires me to download a whole new .stp file and start the Creo process from scratch.  It sure would be nice if these Gridfinity files were parametric. I've been racking my brains to think of the best way to great a parametric Gridfinity set of bins. 1) I'm assuming a family table is the best way to create a parametric set of bins?2) Does anybody already have a Gridfinity  family table they could share with me?3) Filling in the corners between two sets of bins or filling in the edge corner details will be the difficult part.  I'm guessing I could do that with a bunch of relations within

Hello,   As you may have seen, there is a recently introduced bug that is affecting Mathcad file attachments. We are investigating with the assistance of Khoros but are having trouble reproducing the issue. So, I was hoping a few of you might be able to help us out. If you are posting an attachment, could you try first without zipping the file. If it fails, go ahead and use a zip file but message me with a link to the post and description of what happened.   Additionally, if any of you have issues with attachments and have the opportunity could you try adding attachments from a different device on a different network and let me know the results.   Thanks!

Hi I am measuring some reaction forces in the XY domain, but i am confused which CSSY CREOis referencing? Is it the COG CSSY for the rigid body? Or the default CSSY for the rigid body assy?

Hello all,If anyone has an idea about torsion springs ?I am trying to apply torsion spring mechanisms to this assembly, but during the process I am unable to pick a reference point; the first point is selected, but the second point is unable to be picked, and the torsion spring is not visible. Result of this process I need a calculation against the torsion spring. For reference, I attached a screenshot of the extension spring that shows when the reference points are selected and the spring becomes visible. Torsion spring asm.Extension spring example :    

Hi everyone!I purchased a 1-year student license for Mathcad Prime Version 11. I would like to deactivate my license from the original machine and then reactivate it on a new computer. So far, I have uninstalled all Mathcad-related applications from my original computer and followed the original installation instructions to download and setup PTC Mathcad Prime 11.0.1.0 on my new computer. However, I am at the step where I need a new Product Key/Code to activate the product. Could someone please guide me through how to obtain a new Product Key, and/or tell me who to contact in order to obtain a new one.Thank you for your help in advance.

This should be a simple problem, but the units in MathCAD don't work together...125 hp...but instead I get...Is there a way to make the units work with the units or do I have to bypass all of all of that to put in my values without units?See attached MathCAD Prime 9.0.0.0

When working in Creo, the preview of the part is not visible. It has been like this for many generations, now running Creo 10.0.9.0. I tried pressing the install creo viewer link but the installation that poppet up was for creo viewer 9 and I already have creo view 10 on my system. When looking at this part through a normal browser, ie not built in to Creo, I can see the 3d thumbnail. Is there a setting that enables this somehow or do I need a different version of Creo View? 

Hi guysnew hereI have worked with mathcad a few times, but never with very complex sheetsI'm trying to do a calculation sheet for the Cross laminated timber (CLT) gamma values, which are used to accound for weak layers in a laminate.I have been able to create the matrices, but in a non automatic way. I'd like to be able to make the sheet build them automatically, with the correct size for the given niumber of layers.The PDF from ProHolz provides the calculation on page 5-7, and the indices are already given for placement in the matrix.But I cant get it to work, I always have an issue with the indices i-1 when its the first line, cause the indices simply don't exist for 0...Basically I want to just write down the number of layers, and the dimension, but then it should be automaticthe Matrix V and vector S always vary in size depending on the number of layersor use a trick like this, because once the matrices are build, I could just use the right one, but for a 3 layer -composition, the

Hello, I'm exploring the idea of automatic view creation, where a program would intake a part number of an assembly, highlight it, and export a capture of that part in the assembly and potentially create a view of it. In order to do this, the following would need to be possible:GUI-less API integration with IllustrateAPI-enabled Camera manipulationAPI-enabled Part search and manipulation (highlight, color, transparency)Are any of these possible within Illustrate? Which APIs can work with Illustrate (Web.Link, J-Link, C/C++ Toolkit)? Best, Charlie

I want to implement a macro to select two location points and create a branch bundle feature. However, the selection tool doesn't seem to be working properly, as shown in the figure below. Each time, only one location point can be added, and it's impossible to add two location points to the selected list.The help documentation states that when creating a branch bundle, you need to hold down the CTRL key to select two locations. Is there any way to programmatically select two locations? Or is it possible to create a branch bundle using Toolkit?The macro content is as follows, but it doesn't work as expected.~ Command `ProCmdMdlTreeSearch` ;~ Select `selspecdlg0` `RuleTab` 1 `Misc`;\~ Select `selspecdlg0` `RuleTypes` 1 `All`;\~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `EvaluateBtn`;\~ Select `selspecdlg0` `ResultList` 1 `5:67:[6375]`;\~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `ApplyBtn`;\~ Select `selspecdlg0` `ResultList` 1 `70:67:[6375]`;\~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `ApplyBtn`;\~ Activate `selspecdlg0` `CancelButton`;\

In Creo Sheetmetal, we need to get the drawing of flatten view directly without having any step. Please refer attached video from Soildworks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNMcbeZMGGA&t=110s Do we have this functionality in Creo ? 

I'm using Creo 12.4.0.0 and I'm experiencing an issue when trying to edit certain configuration files in Creo ModelCHECK. Here is the situation:I can edit Start Files and Status Files under the Configuration Files section without any problem.However, when I try to edit files under Check Files or Constant Files, Creo crashes.For example, I tried openin the default_checks_mch, file but Creo immediately crashes.The crash only happens when editing Check/Constant files, not Start/Status files.

In the piping line stock there first tab, one can specify bend radius and bend angle with multiple values, space separated. Why and what is the impact of having multiple values there? Do they drive the pipe design? Then in the Design Rule tab one can define a miniumum and maximum bend radius and angle. Are these driving or what purpose do they have? In the User Defined tab one can define bends (with names) and a value to them. Are these driving or what is the purpose? What I eventually want to do is to ensure that the bend radius is always 30mm. A further refinement that I'm not sure is possible would be to have it vary depending on the bend angle. This is because the bend machine that we have has a fixed radius, and as such the springback of tubes that are bend result in a radius other than 30mm, depending on the angle that is bent.

Creo 10.0.8.0In our material library I want to be able to add the common material designations as custom attributes in the material file.   THEN, I want to use a relation to automatically populate the material attribute MATL_SPEC with the material attribute when it exists. But I have found then when the "custom" material property doesn't exist the relations fail.  I tried using the "exists()" function to check, but the equation fails before getting to the "exists()" function. This is the equation I was trying to use.  When "custom" exists, it works, but if "custom" doesn't exist it fails.if exists(material_param("custom"))test=material_param("custom")endif Also, I've found then when "custom" does exist, I don't actually enter into the "do" part of the IF statement. Is there another recommended work-around or relation function structure I can try?
