Is it possible to set Use standard hole profile as drill hole profile button selected by default while creating simple hole

Hi Guys,   In Creo Parametric 7.0 I’m trying to replace an assembly in a simplified rep by use of a family table instance.I’m having an assembly with a pneumatic parallel gripper (some kind of cylinder) in, which is “driving” some other parts:   This gripper has a family table with some instances (different positions of the jaws):     Now I like to replace this gripper in a Simplyfied Representation in the higher assembly.I like to do that with the “Substitude selected models by family table”:         This works fine for the gripper. But the parts (jaws and bolts) which are driven by the gripper aren’t following the jaws of the gripper:   Does anybody know how to solve this?

Hello, I wanted to see if anyone else has dealt with this issue before. The exploded-lines that I create for my exploded drawing views are constantly disappearing or should I say, getting deleted. I have no clue why this is happening. I'm very meticulous with saving my views along with my drawing files too. Yet often when I close the file and open it back up again, the lines are gone and nowhere to be found in the model tree. This is beyond frustrating. I just wanted to ask if anyone else has these issues too.

Hi, I have set following settings:Model Properties /Detail option  default_annotation_font arialn.ttf  symbol_font ISOsame settings in drawing properties All symbol come in arialn.ttf but only the diameter symbol (by pressing button add diameter symbol to dimension) stays in old legacy mode (see picture - only lines no ttf font)Strange thing is  - when i manually add the diamter symbol as prefix it is correct (see second picture)  How can I fix this?    

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.4.0Is it possible to change the amount of the component table, multiplying it by 2, without inserting 2 parts in the model tree?

We are using creo parametric in french but we are creating drawings in english.When a drawing section is created the section label is in french.Is it possible to force it to english "section" in some way?Basically today we need to edit the note and change it manually. If we can save some time it is good. I know one solution is to set it up in english language but we want to keep all the menus in french for people who are not too confident. 

Hi! I have problem in my creo version 8. I cannot add H7 tolerances do some drawings. For some I can, for others I just can't see the option to do it. I tried to change settings of models, add tables with Hole tolerances etc. Nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas? I am attaching 2 examples - one is a drawing where it works, other where it does not.

I'm looking to see if my company has an available license for mathcad and if not possibly acquire one. Our PTC account gives me access denied when trying to manage licenses and I'm unable to upgrade the account as I don't have the information necessary.

Hi, Mathcad v3.1, v4.0, v6.0, v8.0, v15.0 run with OpenJDKAre these versions able to run with OpenJDK instead of Oracle Java?   I am hoping that one is able to install the OpenJDK and then install the MathCad.  Please let me know if this has been tested and works.I am not able to find any information on this site.Thank you.

The xtop.exe says that thoes libraries are missing after windows updates, and I'm currently using windows 11.   xalancmt.dll xercescmt.dll btkunzipmt.dll btkzlibmt.dll   Don't know the folder adress of these and some of thems are not able to download by the search.

Hello, Are there any configs that auto suppress failed parts on regeneration?  I am opening several parts for research that I need to regenerate and the failure diagnostics really slow me down.  Is there a way to suppress this function? Running PTC Creo 4.0 Thanks for the help!

While working on drawing, "license lost" message along with "offline mode" message (see image). I cannot click anything.  "offline mode" message appears but not clickable. I cannot bring "license lost" message to the foreground of the screen. Drawing is saved but it would take 2 hours to re-open. Solution? 

Hi, I need to write a code to delete some components from an assembly using Excel. I'm new in VBA and I have found some examples but I will need some help. Thanks.

Using Creo 7.0.5.0 Q: How can I find the Body ID's in an assembly? Reason:Error Diagnostics for Analysis/Assembly FailureAll position constraints can't be simultaneously satisfied. The following position constraints can't be satisfied:1) The following kinematic loop can't be closed: Ground - body38 - Ground. The bodies in each part is called Body1 (by default, I don't model multibody parts), making this information rather pointless. Can't find any model tree column that tells this information either.

MathCad 14 factored the function sinx(x). It is known from other investigations that this function has only real zeros. If you now look for the zeros of each factor (the terms are in parentheses), then MathCad calculates complex zeros that cannot be simplified. Where is the saw stuck here 😉 .Kind regards, Alfred Flasshaar

I am using Creo Schematics Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0I created a schematic using the ports that I created in my catalog. The ports have a name "##". I completed my schematic last week Friday and closed out my day. I returned next week Monday to find that most of my ports had been changed from ## to "universalport_#". Universalport_# is not used anywhere in my catalog. When I updated my labels, all ports that I had not personally changed that weren't universalport_# changed to universalport_#. I have changed some of them back to ## and they haven't changed back since then, but my concern is something like this happening again.Here are the errors that I faceduniversalport

Hello all, I am having some issues with Global Definitions.  I am trying to define the following: kJ = 1000JWhen I do this, Mathcad (7.0) accepts the input, but the "kJ" stays black.  It doesn't turn blue like other definitions I have used in the past.  I am using a wrapper for REFPROP, and the author has the same definition in his worksheet.  If I copy that into my worksheet, it works fine.  But creating my own definition from scratch doesn't seem to function properly.  Thus, when I make function calls for fluid properties in kJ/kg, i.e. enthalpy, the units are not correct.  See the screenshot below. What's the difference between these two?  How do I make my global definition like the one above?

I need to hide sketches shown in drawing views (sketches not quilts).I do hide it every time I open the drawing file, so I need a permanent solution.

There is one more calculation to be performed based on the interperolated values.  However the value of appears to change after the calculation of .  I do not understand why?  Any suggestions.   Thanks.    

I'm just trying to make a vector from a function so that I can export the valuesHowever MathCad Prim 8.0 give the error "This value must be a scalar or a matrix". Why???Needless to say, not having the ability to just select all values from an array and copying and pasting, like it was possible in MathCad 15 is really, really annoying

Can someone please help me with drawings. Im trying to add 4 different part models to a drawing. When I try to label them with &model_name they all keep the name thats preselected on the bottom of the drawing(I attached image). Can someone please help me fix this issue? 

Hi all, By using "&weldasm.totallength" we can show the total weld length in any table on DRW. But we need to use similar code in ASM parameters. I tried to use "WELD_LENGTH" parameter of each future in the releation. But when I try to use the future parameter in releation it gives as "WELD_LENGTH:FID_702:3" specifically with FID. I can't use because the number of weld future in each file will be different and the location of weld future will be different. If I successed to assign total weld lenght to any parameters I will sign as designated and will send to Windchill. Then I will prapare a query builder report which inludes total weld length of CAD Documents.Do you have any idea. It can also be a solution with mapkey or ModelCheck ... Best regards,

I am working on a harness drawing and on my table for pin to pin connections, I have parameters "&harn.run.cond.from.pin.name" & "&harn.run.cond.to.pin.name". At the moment these values are not populated in the table.1) Where can I access the values corresponding to these parameters?2) How do I edit these values?All I need for my table is to view the from and to connector pins.(Using Creo 8.0.4.0)
