In drawing. How to call out information about cables passing through particular location as a leader note pointing to this location. The note should be a parametric. So as i change cables routing, and cables passing through this location are change, the note should update automatically. Now i acquire information using Feature Information tool, copy part of this information and paste them into the note but this is not right solution. If i can get this information using feature info tool, there should be some kind of parameter containing this information

I have a text file with comma delimited numerical data.  I read it in to the "ld" table and then have a program to parse through and build a matrix from the data (data file attached).  My questions: 1) Can I replace the "11" in my for statement with something like "length of (ld)" so my code works when I change the number of rows of data? 2) Is there a way to build the Ypos matrix without using the intermediary Yp matrix?  I know Ypos is only defined inside the program - but is there a way to make it "global" or such? 3) Is it possible to populate 2 different matrices with 1 program?  So my code would create both a Yp and a second matrix?  If my code creates a Ypos and Yneg how would I pass both of them out?  thanks,relayman357  

If I copy several rows of code from a program, and paste them in I get an extra "indention" set of double bars.  I want the pasted code to have the same "level" as the code in which I'm pasting it.

Place region has a different behavior than keep in and keep out, is it not possible to select one side, and when imported in Cadence Allegro appears to be on both side. Is it bossible to have same behvior as place keepin and place keep out. Place region: option one side is not accessible. Place keepin: Option one side only is accessible    

What's the best way to create a curve along a spline through points without having to manually select each point.  Is there a way to enter a range (Ex. Point 1 - Point 100) where it will select the points that way?

Using Creo 7.0.5.0. As Creo use this Session type of environment and never warns you about closing a single file due to unsaved changes I'm more or less saving all the time (afraid of loosing stuff in case of a crash). This leads to creating a lot of duplicates of the same files (or miniscule differences). It only warns when the session/program as a whole is closed, and then you better be sure you saved everything that you closed previously.... Then I realised this:- Even if I open A FRESH instance of Creo, and open NO files, does no changes to any settings or similar and then close down: CREO STILL WARNS about closing the session and loosing unsaved work. This means the warning is just a dummy prompt that has absolutely no clue of if the files have been saved or not. I'm sorry to say this, but HOW ON EARTH can such a high end software be this.... st_pid?!  Even Notepad can detect changes properly....  I've searched for other threads and ideas about this, but n

Using Creo 8.0.4.0I have an assembly with 4 simplified representations-each state represent a stage in the assembly process, so the simplified representation begins with few components and the final one has all the parts. I need a BoM table on the drawing sheet, which I made by linking the repeat region to the default rep which lists all the components within, but I am facing issues with BoM balloons. How do I make BoM balloons to appear on the different representational views?I tried creating multiple tables for each representational view, but then the tables will have reoccurring parts and since the repeat regions are different, I can't find a way to get rid of duplicate parts across different tables. Alternatively, I tried a different approach where I do not use simplified representations at all but used different layers to hide parts and created 4 combined states with those layers. But on the drawing, I cannot select the combined state along with the default representation.&nb

Hi, I was doing some calculations using Prime 7 and Excel through macros. Basically, the program passes some values from Excel to Mathcad to calculate and the results are printed back to Excel. It worked fine. I recently formatted my laptop and installed Prime 8. I am waiting for the license so, in the meantime, I am using the 30-days trial with full functionality. I tried to use the same Prime-Excel program but it shows the following error when I run the macro: "User-defined type not defined". I have the Ptc.MathcadPrime.Automation.tlb file to VBA, as shown in the attached image. Is there something I am missing? Maybe this functionality is restricted to users with license? Thanks!

  When I perform a copy geometry in an assembly the features such as points, axis, or plane are not displayed on the model.  I have to go into the layer tree and and "show" them as they are listed under hidden items.   The couple extra steps to do that are driving me wild as I deal with complex assemblies that utilize many copy geometries.  It hasn't always been this way, I thought this might be a config setting of some sort but I couldn't find anything.   Anybody have a solution to this? The reference article shows you can assign the layer of the copy geom under Include Properties but I do not have that.

Hello, I am new to Creo and CAD in general. I work in fabrication mainly but am slowly learning various CAD and CAM systems. I am currently working on a project in Creo 7.0 where I am attempting to convert solid models into sheet metal parts with layout lines to be used in a CNC scribing and cutting operation.  The end product is something like this, this particular component only has "flat" geometry so none of the following was required.  This is the part file I am starting with. The main plate is a sketched line that is extruded upward and outward to create the height and thickness. Then the smaller extrusions are sketched and extruded off of the main plate.  The following are steps I am taking to produce a usable view to cut on the CNC machine.  First, I am using the Convert to Sheet Metal tool. I select the flat surface on the right as the driving surface and add purple highlighted sections of the plate to the included surfaces so the whole p

This is an enhancement request to support the export of QIF files from Creo Parametric.   We typically use STEP or some other type of neutral file to feed our downstream processes.  Those formats do work, but looking forward we think the QIF format may provide some additional benefits because it's XML-based.  Computers love to read XML.   As of this date, we are on Creo Parametric 4, but I still have not seen any mention of QIF export up through Creo Parametric 7.  Maybe PTC can comment if they have a plan.   Now, this may suggestion may already exist.  I did do a few different searches on PTC Community, but didn't see anything.   Thanks, Keith

Hello, Was wondering if someone could help or knew the answer this question? I am using Windchill and recently switched form Creo5 to Creo8. I'm trying to create a 2D drawing, I navigate to the correct directory where the template formats are and can't see them to use and select. Anyone know why I can't see and use them in Creo8? Do I need to create new ones? Thanks,Jeff

Creo 7.09.0   I have some new UDF features (.gph) that are used as subordinate UDFs and placed on multiple designs in part mode. I have created model annotations in the UDF reference parts (.prt). The UDF geometry works as intended but I am struggling to automate the detailed views on the drawings which are repetitive in nature. I want to set up one set of annotations in the reference model and then show them in a detail view on a drawing without manipulating the location of the annotations shown every time I reuse the features.   Combination states are not portable through a subordinate UDF from the reference part used to create the UDF, so that did not work.   I have also considered importing a detail view from the UDF reference part but that creates a new drawing sheet and is not a good option IMO.   I can show the annotations embedded in the UDF as they do come across into the target models but must manipulate the spacing etc. after showing them in a drawing in

Hello, I want to create a mapkey to copy a sheet and then come-back to the original sheet.I imagine to use the parameter sheet_number but i don't know how to store its value. Do you have any idea ?Thanks

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0I created a Simplified Representation of an Assembly. I created a Style for the Simplified Representation. I have a drawing, I added the model to the drawing (Simplified Representation chosen). The Style grouped with the Simplified Representation does not come through.My goal is to have some parts transparent and other parts not -- this is the Style I created. The view is an Isometric view, with shading turned on.I moved on to re-creating the Style I already made in the assembly, in the drawing, using Component Display. Component Display isn't working. I select my components, select PhantomOpque, won't save.
