I'm using MathCAD 9.0.0.0. Attached is my program. I need to find theta. Theta should equal 32.6 degrees. How can I get MathCAD to solve for theta? Thanks,      Brent 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.4.0I have written a C executable that will not run unless ucore68.dll is in my Windows path. I want to not be dependent on DLLs if possible.Here are the errors that I faced:The code execution cannot proceed because ucore68.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.

When we originally did our .Hol files over a decade ago we decided it wasn't possible to call out both FREE and CLOSE in the callout formats.  The Hole note on the drawing could only be shown as a Free(what we set it as). Is that still the case?  When i add in CLOSE to the matrix/table it still just only gives me a Free callout and not the Close when Close is the value set in the model Thanks! DEFAULT_CALLOUT_FORMAT_DATA HOLE_TYPE THREAD DRILLED_DEPTH THREAD_DEPTH CSINK CBORE EXIT_CSINK CALLOUT_FORMAT CLEARANCE NO THRU_ALL NA NO NO NO &HOLE_INSTANCE_COUNT&HOLE_INSTANCE_X_SYMBOL <CTRL-a>n<CTRL-b>&FREE_DEC[.2] DRILL <CTRL-A>x<CTRL-B> &DRILL_DEPTH CLEARANCE NO THRU_ALL NA NO NO NO &HOLE_INSTANCE_COUNT&HOLE_INSTANCE_X_SYMBOL <CTRL-a>n<CTRL-b>&CLOSE_DEC[.2] DRILL <CTRL-A>x<CTRL-B> &DRILL_DEPTH     

We are looking at installing ITI's CADIQ and I was wondering if anyone in the PTC Creo community is already running it and can give us some information. What we are wondering is how it compares to ModelCheck in functionality and quality of the analysis.  ITI has told us that it is an external program, so files need to be saved to disk before running through CADIQ, which is a drawback when we have all of  our data in Windchill.   Love to hear experiences from those that have evaluated or are using CADIQ. Thanks

Hello,I'm using a worksheet in Mathcad prime 11 with the pwrfit function to interpolate the curve of electronic components.Since I like working with units in Mathcad, I slightly modified the interpolation coefficients to include units.Solve this kind of equation, but with the interpolation VPROT = F(I). I is the resultMy goal is to solve a function that uses this interpolation. The solve function doesn't work, but I can find the solution for a single point using a solve block and the Find function.   Could you help me to solve the solve function 🙂 Thank youSee attached file.  

Hidden line removal for quilt not working with 2D cross-section from Sections used. I want image 2,3,4 to be like image 1 that hides hidden line for quilts. If i select 2d section the option of hidden line is greyed out. It does not remove hidden lines. How to fix? Thanks in advance.  More to think ...more to creo!

Hello community!I request your help with the following: I want to enter a matrix into a larger one.I’m working on assembling a global stiffness matrix of a structure (truss)I have defined the matrices of each element. The matrix of the element is 4x4, "i"= 1 to "n", n: number of elementsI have an auxiliary matrix that defines in each row the degrees of freedom associated with each element. For example row 1 contains the degrees of freedom of element 1 and so on. I named this matrix GDL  What I want is for Mathcad to grab the matrix of each element and place it in the global matrix at the positions corresponding to the columns and rows that indicate the row of the auxiliary matrix GDL. For example the stiffness matrix of element 3 must be placed in rows and columns numbers 1, 2,5 y 6 of the global matrix.I understand that once the correct routine is created I would have to use a FOR cycle to do it for each element. But at the moment I’m trying to test with only one element&nbs

I create a part using the BOUNDARY BLEND command and then OFFSET it. I wish to SOLIDIFY it now, I mean the offset geometry. Creo 11 Student Version does not like it. I am not sure why? Is there a GLITCH in Version 11 for the solidify command for geometry using the Boundary Blend?

We’ve been trying to find a more efficient way of creating springs and adding measures to them, but so far haven’t had much success. We’ve standardized a lot of spring parameters—names, orientations, and measures—but every time we create a new spring, it still takes too long to set up both the spring and its associated measure. Example workflow: Start with an empty model and a point at (0,0,0). Create a spring to ground with stiffness properties in the global coordinate system: Z = 10 N/mm X = 0 N/mm Y = 0 N/mm Add a measure for this spring and name it Wheel_1_Z. We’ve tried to automate the process using mapkeys, but haven’t managed to make it work. Question:What would be the best way to streamline or automate this workflow?Issues: Case 1: You select a point and press the Spring button. A simple spring is created, and the point remains in the buffer. But when you switch the spring type to Spring to Ground, the point list becomes empty, so you have to reselect the poin

Using Creo 10.0.2.0 Commercial license After I completed a model and associated drawing, we had a small issue. I oriented the model wrong.I based my sketch in the "Top" plane when I should have based it in the "Front" plane. That would make it line up better in the final assembly. I know it's not a big deal to rotate it in the assembly, but it would be "nice" to just have it fit correctly in the system without rotating. I figured out I could get the orientation I needed by right-clicking the sketch and selecting references. I then switched Top with Front, Right with Top, then Front with Right to get the actual orientation I needed. Great, the model itself was exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, as one might expect, this completely broke all of my annotated dimensions. I tried to reassign the planes for the annotations, but it didn't work. I then regenerated the original model and tried just switching Top and Front, leaving right alone. I thought maybe if I on

I am currently using the free trial version (EXPRESS) of Mathcad Prime. After converting a file created with the old Mathcad using the "Input/Output" XMCD converter menu, I opened the converted file and tried to copy and paste a table from Excel into the original table, but it is not reflected. During the conversion, a message "To maintain the numerical results of the input table, the table has been converted into a matrix" was displayed. Is this the cause? Could you please tell me the reason and the solution?

The Mathcad functions matrix, CreateSpace and CreateMesh have a few limitations that led me to create alternatives.   One set of limitations is that the x (& y) ordinates they use are restricted to being linearly spaced (unless using a mapping function in CreateSpace and CreateMesh).  This often proved a nuisance, so (way back in Mathsoft Mathcad v11), I wrote replacements for them that allowed me more control over the x & y coordinates.   Secondly, Mathcad doesn't have a vector counterpart to the function matrix. A simple enough thing to implement.   And, bringing us up to date, CreateSpace and CreateMesh are Premium functions in Mathcad Prime, thus unavailable for Mathcad Express.   With the latter in mind, and noting CreateSpace's use in a recent thread, I thought I'd cobble together a worksheet showing one possible Express implementation of the functions vector, matrix, Vector, and Matrix (the latter two being replacements for CreateSpace and C

Hi everyone,I’m currently exploring how different PTC tools can be leveraged together and had a question regarding potential integration.Has anyone worked with or come across an integration between Mathcad and Windchill Risk and Reliability? Specifically, I’m interested in understanding:Whether there's any native integration or API-based connectivity between the two tools.If it’s possible to embed Mathcad calculations into risk models or reports generated within Windchill Risk and Reliability.Any best practices or workarounds for using outputs from Mathcad (e.g., failure rate calculations, stress analysis, etc.) to support risk and reliability assessments in Windchill.How such an integration (if available) could streamline risk analysis workflows or improve traceability.I’d really appreciate any insights, documentation references, or experiences you can share. Thanks in advance!

HelloI am looking for a way to access and override the content of headers without starting MathCad. This is required for our document management system - once the file is officially issued the document management system needs to override the date, title, etc. I do understand that MathCad files are zipped xml's and I could modify the values in the xml file but the header/footer text content does not seem to be available.  Thank you in advancedMichal

Hello PTC Community, I'm experiencing an issue on some computers where the Creo 11 embedded browser is not functioning correctly. For certain web pages (stored in the hard drive), the browser displays a completely blank white page. When I reload these pages, the correct content appears only briefly—as a quick blink—and then the page goes blank again.Here are some details about the affected systems:Operating System: Windows 11 Enterprise 23H2Creo Version: 11.0.3.0Creo Platform Agent: 1.7.395Creo 11 Platform Services: 1.3.51I have already tried clearing the cache and browsing history within the embedded browser, but the issue persists.Has anyone encountered this problem or can suggest any solutions or troubleshooting steps?I attach a screenshot of the correct rendering of the page, and the blanked one. Thank you in advance for your help!

Dear @KenFarley and @BryantMorgan, With reference to this topic! Is there a way to use Gpost to split an nc file in couple .tap-files?So that Gpost looks for time or length?   I would like to use this information to export an "SET", and then let GPOST split it into different TAP-parts (every tool has then his own NCL-File). That would make the explort of CL-Files easier.. because now we have to calculate every Step one by one becuase the NC-Machines/Worker prefer it that way.

"If these anchor points are cut off by a section, the dimension won't be visible." Reference topic: Hole annotations not showing - PTC Community Is there a way to shift those anchor points to visible section?I have thread hole where one annotation (MAX) is "anchored" to axis of the hole and is visible in any cross section, but the other dimension (MIN) is visible only in correctly oriented cross section, which is not cutting off the anchor points. Is there a way how to swap the anchor points to other side of the design or is it dead end in MBD?

My Mathcad Prime 11 trial period has recently ended, so I've been reviewing how some of my older Mathcad Express (E7 & E10, mostly) worksheets and functions perform under Mathcad Express 11.   While updating an array reshape function, I noticed that the performance was deteriorating as the array size increased.  This in itself wasn't too surprising, but it was a lot slower than I'd have expected from an O(log(n)) algorithm.  A mere 50,000 elements were taking 3 to 4 seconds to vectorize (confusing terminology in Mathcad terms, I know, but it is common in mathematics - see links at the bottom of this post)   reshape, however, used a vec variant to flatten the target array into a vector, before creating a suitably dimensioned array from the resulting vector, and vec proved to be the reason for the performance problem.   vec uses fold to apply a bespoke stacking function to its input argument.  I wondered if there was a means of speeding it up and tried a

HelloI noticed that when navigating through the model, you change what you're looking at by moving the model itself instead of your perspective. Meaning: the camera is fixed, and the only thing that moves is the model.I'm looking for a way to navigate through the model (while using a spacemouse) in such a way that the model stays still, and the only thing that's moving is the camera. Think of it like the model is a building, and I'm changing what I see by flying a drone to see what I want. I've been able to approximate the functionality I'm looking for, but what throws me off the most is that the center of camera rotation is always around an object instead of around the perspective of the camera itself.  I'm using Creo View 10.1 with a SpaceMouseI've tried changing my navigation mode to Catia and PTC CreoI've tried changing my view mode from orthographic to perspectiveI've tried both 3D navigation methods "as defined by the general model" and "explore"I've tried inertial spin
