I have some large scan files from a router with many small line segments.  Creo error "you are attempting to import too many entities"  Suggested turning of "intent manager".  I can not find intent manager and it sketcher will not import the .dxf file.   If I hit Proceed, it does not import anything.   Is there a work flow work around for this to get the data into sketcher? 

We created symbols of tables (i.e. torque table) in an mbd in Creo 8 but when we export them into a pvz file the justification of the symbol text changes from center justified to right justified so the text violates the table lines. These same files exported correctly with my old computer, but i had to get a new one and have a new config.pro. Is there a setting that controls this?

Hi,How a Mathcad program will look like in which Barnsley fern  fractal plot can be seen?

We have a requirement to highlight areas of a casting model as zoned areas, where the zoned area has specil requirements, ie cannot be repaired with welds etc.  We usually do this by highlighing the areas by drawing sketches on the drawing views.  We thought it might be a good idea to show these surfaces as different coloured surfaces in the 3D model so found a way on youtube, where a guy showed how to change a particular surface to transparent, then copy and paste a new surface over the transparent surface, which could then be split into 2 surfaces, with one being the colour of the original part and the other surface being coloured to a new colour to highlight a special attention area.  Our current policy for casting to machined, is to take this casting model, create a new part for the machined and then merge the casting into the machined model (using Get Data > Merge/Inheritance).  Unfortunately, when we then apply machined cuts to the machined part, these newl

I have a prt(V Belt) where i need to have two models, but show just one at time.Usually we use one for 3d and one for 2d, but in this case i just wanna have like "one button" where i show one or another. Creo 8.0.9.0   

Hi, since a few moths ago it is speaking more about the ARM architecture, is it posible to install PTC software on this computer architecture?

I have a UDF that has annotation features When I use this UDF in another part, if the annotation plane is different from the one that the UDF was created in then the annotations come in with the suppressed icon next to them and while you can see them briefly if you edit the dimension they are associated to they will not show up using the show annotations button. I opened up a ticket and PTCs response was that I need to place the UDF in the same annotation plane that it was originally made in. This means that I would need 6 different UDFs that all have the same features. My users would need to figure out what annotation plane they are working in and then pick the correct UDF that corresponds.   Am I missing something? Does anyone know of a work around for this? If there is none then I can open an idea, seems like PTC should be able to auto change the annotation plane to correspond to one that the UDF placement is parallel to.

Hello,In Creo 4.0 I was able to cycle through different hatched components in an assembly drawing with the "Next" and "Previous" function in the Mod XHatch menu.However, in Creo 11.0 I cannot find this functionality in the "Edit Hatching" menues, How can I cycle between hatched components in an easy way?  Best regards,Erik 

Please quickly respond regarding the support for CreoElements/Direct License Server 20.8 on Windows Server 2025.In recent years, the servers available for purchase primarily use Windows Server 2025,and it is expected that more customers will be unable to downgrade to 2022 due to compatibility with other systems.

Hi All!I am trying to open an existing solid tool (assembly) with bulk parts for the inserts and screws (I don't want to model them separately) in the NC assembly environment , My problem is, that Creo doesn't recognize the proper quantity even though the BOM_REPORT_QUANTITY parameter is already set.Also, can I use a parameter to override the type field to show INSERT / HOLDER instead of GENERIC? Is there any workaround for this? Thank you!I am using Creo 12.

I have a set of bounding temperature data Ti, at coordinates (xi,yi,zi).  I would like to linearly interpolate the temperature at interior points within the bounding points.  The bounding points could be like a cube, or other shape, or a plane or a line element.  Is there a mathcad prime program that can do this?

Hello, I have to process~750 rows, pulling values from another PRIME file using the INCLUDE statement.  I'm trying to write a text file in a certain format (just 6 row sample).  First column of values would have no quotation marks.  Second column of values would be text or string if a decimal place was included, only to two decimal places.  The delimiter between rows would be a comma.  Attached are a sample PRIME file of what I created and a text file of which I would like to see.Ideas?

I am using Mathcad Prime Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0Hello - We are requiring proof of vendor support for Mathcad prime 7.0. Is this something which can be provided?Here are the errors that I facedNone

When making a template in Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0, i set the document -> View -> to "Draft".  I then save and reopen the template but it always reverts to "Page" view.  I never had this problem with Mathcad15.-Is there not an ability to set the user made template (document -> View) to always open in "Draft" on that specific template?-Additionally, i have the same question for setting the default zoom on the Document -> View.  Can the zoom setting be set in the user made prime template. Note: if i've got 10 people using the template, i doubt many of them will remember to manually change document to "Draft" view each time they open the template.   

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.3.0I was able to use the Transform feature under Component Operations for one component of my assembly. Now I want to use Transform again on the same assembly but I can no longer find it in the Component Operations' menu

Hi everyone,I'm looking for a way to rapidly create scribe lines on a part. I have a wall with multiple parts welded on it. I want to be able to add to the drawing engraved line (in a layer with a different color) of the perimeter of the welded parts, to ease installation. That drawing will be exported to DXF, so that the manufacturer can work from it.I'm on Creo 8.  So far, the best way I found was:1. Activate the wall in the assembly.2. Create a shrinkwrap feature and select the mating faces.3. Place that shrinkwrap feature in its own layer.4. Create drawing and modify layer to what's needed. The problem with this method is that I have to select all the surfaces individually. In the example below, there's only a few surfaces, but in my case the walls have a lot more parts welded onto them. If anyone has a better idea on how to do this, please let me know.Thank you.  

We explored how to show wire details in a Wire Harness assembly by using the "Model Intent" option to designate wires and created standard Spool with WT Parts. By doing so, we were able to see wire details in the Harness assembly structure.We want to show each wire’s length as a quantity attribute in the structure. The wire length appears in the model tree column, but we need to get the same value in the WT Part structure. How can we retrieve this value for the WT Part?

Hello Community,I’m back after some time away from MathCAD due to other types of projects. This time, I need your expertise to help me resolve the following:I have several 3D zones defined by two opposite diagonal points, as shown in the figure below. I have prepared the zones as an m × 6 matrix, where each row is [x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2]. Row 0 → Zone 1, Row 1 → Zone 2, etc.I also prepared a list of points as an N × 3 matrix. Let PTS be N × 3 with columns [x y z]:My inVolume formula is producing the correct Boolean answer (1 or 0) depending on whether a point lies inside the volume or not. However, my matrix implementation is not producing the expected result. I would like also to work with units of length.    Attached is the MathCAD Prime 7 worksheet. You can reply in either MathCAD Prime 7 or 11.

Currently using Creo Schematics 12, trying to perfect the CID-to-WID process. One issue that I have noticed is that if a dataset it applied to a circuit, in the circuit interface diagram, then that dataset does not get transferred to the wiring diagram. For example, if create a circuit in the CID, and assign a dataset to this circuit (20 AWG, BLACK, TXL), when I place the corresponding wire in the WID, I would expect the wire to be 20AWG, BLACK, TXL.However, this is not the case.  All datasets have to be reassigned to each wire. Am I overlooking a parameter, or anything?  Is this working as intended? If it's working as intended, why can't the circuit dataset be applied to each corresponding wire?  Otherwise you're duplicating efforts, thus creating more work than necessary.

Hello, I'm having a problem with the dimension background. I want the hatch background to cover the hatch. Unfortunately, this can't be set, and the hatching under the dimension is still visible. I'm working in Creo 10.

I've been exploring various research papers and online resources regarding four-bar mechanisms, and I noticed that most of them include complex and advanced equations for motion and force analysis. However, my goal at this stage is to perform a basic four-bar linkage position analysis using Mathcad Prime 10. I'm dont often work  with mechanisms in Mathcad Prime, and I’d appreciate any help or references that can guide me in building a worksheet from scratch.If anyone can point me to beginner-friendly materials, share a worksheet, or walk me through the step-by-step setup, it would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance for your support! 

Hi experts,I experienced the following behaviour.I set up an assembly with AFX standard parts (Bosch, Item or comparable), no customizations going on. Adding connectors leads to additional material cuts in the profiles where needed. When I now create automatic drawings from within AFX these holes are not dimensioned at all. When I add a rectangular cut for example, it is fully dimensioned (s. Drawing_Bosch_Profile.png). Another funny thing about this is that when I use steel or alu beams everything gets dimensioned (s. Drawing_Alu_Beam.png). Any ideas what I'm missing here? Tested it with Creo11 and Creo12 so far.
