Working on a decent sized harness with around 2 dozen connectors and have routed all of it in 3D with coord systems and networks. In the past with smaller harnesses I have been able to manually put in the number of pins in the components tab and then in the pins tab add in the entry port, regenerate the assembly, go back into the parameters and the PIN ID and Cable name have automatically been populated. (Not using Cero schematics anywhere all manually routed) Just as a quick test for this harness I picked a few connectors to make sure everything was working and followed the same process above and the pin ID came in but the cable name did not. My question would be why is the cable name not coming in? My first guess would be that i need to fill out the entry port column for every single connector ( with that then do I need to do that for every port or just one per connector?). My other guess would be I am missing a step somewhere in there and something is not connecting correc

Has this been tested with Creo? Thanks

A user recently got a new computer with Creo 11.0.3.0. They noticed that their "shortcut" to Pro/Library was missing on left hand side of the Creo Browser underneath Common Folders. We looked into their config.pro and saw no issues. The pro_library_dir was even defined as it is on all other users' computers also running Creo 11.0.3.0. I even changed the setting on the config.sup file on their computer and that failed to make the Pro/Library shortcut show up. Has anyone else ran across this issue and what steps would you take to make the shortcut show up?Below is a picture of how it shows on my Creo Browser.  

I need to write this equation this way > however the left part can't be written like ( 1/k)Thank you  

Hi there I tried to input the results from another mathcad file , but I guess I'm doing that wrong > in the following image I'm trying to import the results of ( R) What is the correct function to import the results from one mathcad file to another?When I searched in the community I found very old version which doesn't open in my laptop ThanksYusra 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.7.0I have a user asking about defining a default simplified representation in a non-assembly model, is there a default simplified representation in non-assembly models? I have not been able to find default simplified representations in anything but assembly models.

Hello,I would like to have an assembly file which contains a box and many of a same part. Like a box full of bolts. Is there way to assemble those parts in not a particular manner but rather in a random way? An example picture is shared.Thank you. 

I am ready to engrave some words on a surface using extrude function. The code list below, but seems the specified font did not  work. I checked the feature created by this function, the font is still font3D. How can I use other font? double height = 10.0;pfcPoint2D_ptr firstCorner = wfcCreatePoint2D(-25.00, -25.00);double length = 48.764;pfcPoint2D_ptr secondCorner = wfcCreatePoint2D(-25.00 + length, -25.00 + height); wfcSectionEntityText_ptr text = wfcSectionEntityText::Create(firstCorner,secondCorner,content); text->SetFontName("cgomg"); // use font cgomgwfcSectionEntity_ptr textEntity = wfcSectionEntity::cast(text); sketch->AddEntity(textEntity); sketch->SetIntentManagerMode(true);sketch->SetIntentManagerMode(false);  /* Redefining the feature */extruFeat->RedefineFeature(0, extractedTree, featOpts, regenInstr);

Hello community, I have this problem:"How could I program it to sum 3 consecutive values in a vector (m), with the condition that the sum is performed only when there are exactly 3 consecutive values; otherwise, the result should be an empty string ('').""What I’m trying to do here is: in vector (a), if there is even one false, the result should be false; but if all values are true, the result should be true." 

PTC says this can't be done, so I'm appealing to a higher authority. Put simply, I want to use repeat region relations to compare a parameter in each member to the number of the drawing. PTC Tech Support says there isn't any way to reference information about the drawing from within the repeat region, but that sounds like a terrible gap in functionality, is it really true?

Dear all, I have a problem with the step range. I want to prevent the value 0.50 from appearing in the first term of the function f(x1), according to the first method. I tried using the `last` function, but I can't get it to fit the vector x1.I have Mathcad version 11.Any suggestions?  

PTC community,Is there an auto save option in creo?  After a certain time or key strokes.  My pro-manufacturing guys were wondering so I thought I'd look into it.  I thought maybe a config option.Please help me out.

Hello ptc When trying to activate Modeling Express 6.0, to get my 72 hour key I am getting the following error in my browser "Internal server Error code 500".  As a side note, I have been having to do the 72 hour key for a couple of years now as I get a Proxy Configuration-Connection Failed error for automatic activation. This has not been a big deal as the 72 hour key is a bit of an annoyance but not that big of a deal.  Please see attached screenshots.

Hello,I am a senior year student in university, aiming to implement my previous work experience using Creo Parametric/Schematics to generate electrical wire harnesses for our Formula SAE team. This way we will better know items and wire lengths needed to make our yearly wire harness for competition, both IC and EV. I personally love Creo and hope to help future members learn this program since it's seemingly necessary to work in some high level industries.With only a university free account, trying to prove that Creo is more than useful for our efforts my previous experience is somewhat mitigated for reference. I am hoping to maybe learn of some alternative means to generate the parametric intelligent wire generation. Also is colored cabling disabled for a free account? I've attached an image of my default parameterized spool below, adjusting the name to lowercase as per some support ticket entries I read prior but to no avail.  For one person on our team hoping to join a spe

I have two problems defining the spectrum:1. Acceleration spectrum2. Displacement spectrumI tried to replicate it in Mathcad 11 without success. I followed an example created in Mathcad 13, which includes the Boolean function formulations, but the program detected errors because some variables are not defined, preventing me from graphing them.Please clarify what I'm doing wrong.  

Is there a function to convert from decimals to fractions?

Requested Improvement: There should be some visual indication in the model that the dimensions have been altered using the Analysis -> Dimension Boundaries tool (referenced as Dim Bounds in help).  An analysis feature in the model tree would be helpful,  (This would also be helpful for turning on and off the analysis, or having different analysis scenarios)Also highlighting of the alerted surfaces would also be helpful. One color for more material another for less material. Or, one color for upper boundary, and another for lower boundary.Environment: Tested in Creo 10.0.8.0. Problem: When the Dimension Boundaries feature is used and active, there is currently no indication in the model tree. The risk is that an analysis could easily be left active in a production model.  Manufacturing could manufacture to the model expecting the model to match shown dimension values.   The end result is that bad parts could be made due

Currently we have the following relation in our startpartMATERIAL = MATERIAL_PARAM("CONDITION")This arranges that the parameter MATERIAL is filled with value of the material parameter CONDITION. This parameter MATERIAL is shown in the BOM.As with Creo 7 there is the multi-body added. In this situation it is possible to use multiple materials in one part. When this is the case there is a parameter PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL created which contains the name (I think it's also the condition name) of the used materials separated by a ",", see below.  I thought I update the relation in our startpart (template) but it is not possible to use the relationMATERIAL = PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL It then shows the error "Invalid symbol ' PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL ' found.". Somebody a solution?   

I attempted to upgrade from CREO Parametric 11.0.4.0 to 11.0.6.0 this morning. When I go to start 11.0.6.0, it fails to start because it cannot find a .psf file. The only "reconfigure.exe" file I can find is in the C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin folder, which merely shows me the available license server. I cannot uninstall under Windows either. Is there a way to salvage this installation or manually uninstall and start over? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This is handy.  I modified it today to use with G-Post (I have been using FORTRAN posts for 25+ years, and just made the switch this year).  This will build a setup sheet from your apt source file.  It should be easy enough to understand and tweak for your own needs.  I find it very handy for creating run books. I compiled using FreeBasic but it's easy to convert to your language of choice. You can create a .bat file and attach it to one of your Cimpro buttons:echo offcd %2@C:\anc\camsys\SetupSheetHelper.exe %1 Main Program:'*********************************************************************'SetupSheetHelper Main Program'Bryan Felsher                        01-03-10'Modified 10-17-2025 BCF for AUSTIN NC G-POST'*********************************************************************Dim Shared As Integer i=0,n=0,iTLNUM,SEQNUM=0,iPRNUMDim Shared As Integer FILTYP = 0, FREAD = 0Dim Shared As Strin

We would like to update our MultiCAD environment to a newer Creo version 11/12CS134024 shows that Creo 9 has compatibility to SolidWorks 2025 in Version 9.0.12.0.When does this support comes in Creo 10/11/12 ?We have a multiCAD environment and this holds us back to upgrade from 10 to 11/12.Regards,Marc

Hi there ,To be honest I don't even know I need to multiple selective values in a matrix with selective values in another matrix . I used ( submatrix function ) however it didn't work :where m is a row number Here I want mathcad to multiple the first three values from both d and z Can you help me doing this ? the sheet is attached Thanks Yusra  

I have a failed upgrade of CREO Parametric, 11.0.4.0 to 11.0.6.0, that I am struggling with. The error message is ERROR: Unable To Launch Application Because No Valid Configuration File (*.psf) Files Were Found. Articles from the Knowledgebase state to run "reconfigure.exe" from the C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 11.0.6.0\Parametric\bin folder, but the only "reconfigure.exe" that exists is in the C:\Program Files\PTC\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin folder and does nothing but see the available license server when run. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

I frequently find one or more of these processes consuming 100% of a core each. While I do have a plurality of cores, I do not particularly fancy using them for power-consuming bugs. It seems they are Chrome related, and that IE is no longer supported. So what can I do about it, except killing the processes when I find them surging? Windows 10 22H2, Creo 11.0.5.0, Threadripper Pro. Airgapped, no PDM.
