Hi, I am fairly new to CREO Schematics. So far I have been creating parts that come in 1 piece. The next challenge is to define a part with related accessories. Examples are:- A power switch mounted on a DIN rail with terminal covers and the shaft to connect to the rotator on the door (see image below)- A relay holder on a Din rail and the relay to plug into it (see image below)- A terminal block with a jumper to make a connection between the jumpers The goal is to have all these parts in Creo Schematics to allow outputting a complete BOM of parts with their related accessories. I am using Creo schematics 10.  

Hello,Please see attached file. How can i get a constant value for (EI) to be multiplied by the results of the curvature y"(x)? Thanks,Sam

Hi, I am trying to add BOM index and other part parameters in 3D MBD in creo. As Creo does not provide parametric tables, I am creating some parameters inside parts and want to show in the symbol attached to part.   When I tried to use note with parameter, &description:att_mdl, it showed part level information.   But if I add it in symbol, this does not work. If I add &description:mdl using variable text, it shows the assembly description, not part description where it is attached.   Please let me know if anyone have any other workaround or solution.

Hi!  First time poster here. I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong place. Long story somewhat short: I use creo parametrics 8. After adding new fonts to my c/windows/fonts folder, I opened creo to find it looking like this (see attached photo) I have tried changing UI font size to small, doing a different font.. None of it has made a difference. There are no changes to any other software on my computer.  Any helpful ideas for a fix? Thank you!

I acquired license for 30 days trial on wrong mechine. how can I swap it to my machine? It is assigned to my stationary computer back home and I will be away for long time now and the license will vanish before i come back. I need it on my laptop for university.

Make equivarent sine waveform that has maximum value = 1, average value = pi/2 and RMS = 1/sqrt(2). Below waveform has RMS=1/sqrt(2) but Ea=2/3 not pi/2. ,    Hard probrem. If you can make it, find the Fourier series of the waveform. Calculate the Ea and RMS values for 10, 100 and 1000 harmonics include. Symbolic evaluation by using below programming may causing a trouble.    

I use MathCad Prime. I have N/mm^2 *m*m. The result should be kN but it just doesn't work. I tried kN/m^2 for the f thing, but still doedn't work.

I have the product key but need a license. When I put in my basic account info to get a license, I received an error.I can't proceed further.Please assist meThanks,Steve

I checked other posts about this issue, and I couldn't find one similar to what I am doing hereI am wondering if that is because of the sin function or whatmathcad 9.0.0 file is also attached 

Hi, I'm using Creo 8.0.10.0. I am trying to create a mapkey that will create/set a yes/no feature parameter ("Feat Param") from the model tree in an assembly. However, I need to be able to tell Creo which feature (part or subassembly) in the model tree is to have the parameter applied to, but when I click on the parameter field in the model tree, the parameter window opens and the mapkey window then becomes inactive and I cannot pause/resume or do anything until the parameter window is closed. Is there any other way to set these parameters that would maybe allow the mapkey to be recorded?  Thanks,Matt

 I upgraded the Creo Parametric Educational software from version 9.0.1.0 to 11.0.4.0 on our Citrix servers. The students access the application from the cloud. I noticed on the Creo dashboard under the Common Folders the server is directly accessible. Is there a way to lock this down in the application, so the students only have access to the required drive on the server to save their work? Any guidance you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thank you. 

We have two Creo Citrix Windows 2019 servers that have been flagged for a software vulnerability. This is the PTC Creo Parametric version 9.10.1.0. It states that the following software has been installed in this path: C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 9.0.1.0\Common Files\x86e_win64\gpost\ncjlibs\  is version 11.0.11.9.1 but the fixed version is 11.0.14.10.1.  When I went to the AWS website the it shows that available version is actually 11.0.25. Should I use this version? Does this have any impact on how the Creo software functions?  Please let me know if you need any additional information. Thank you. 

I have a model from a previously released Assembly that has a mystery shaded plane "thing"...it is not a plane, not selectable, not in the model tree, not in any layer including solids, is shown in everything: the drawing, assembly, the generic prt and both family table prts: which indicates the item is not formed on the asm or only on a family table prt (must be on the generic).  I need it hidden.  Also - how on earth is this possible?  I have tried hiding everything in the layer and model trees...everything including the solids...it always stays.  It is NOT shown if I switch to a non-shaded view on the drawing only (remains no matter the view in the open model). Creo 9.0.3.0. 

Hi, see attached gif I want to copy text from outside of creo (notepad or another text editor). I cant seem to copy text as "enclosed text". I try to copy "@[Enclosed text @] some other text" into a drawing note and it doesn't work. after I click properties, I need to delete the extra @ creo added. see attached gif am I doing something wrong?

Hello, I am hoping that there might be a way to adjust a single character in a &REF note in my drawing. The issue is that my font does not discern between 1 and I and I hope to potentially adjust a single character of the note. I'm sure y'all are aware that attempting to edit the text it converts to something akin to "&REF_DES:" making a change to a single character impossible.If there is a not a way to adjust a single character in the reference note, there will be no issue for me to replicate the reference leader note anyways.Thank you

I am trying to assign the result of the symbolic solution of P to P so that I don't have to copy the result and assign it to P manually. See below and the attached mathcad file:is possible to write this so that the result of P doesn't have to be copied?I want to change this because if I change the formulas above, I dont have to re-copy the results

Hello all,Currently using Creo 11 (recent update to).Tried moving radial (& diameter) dimension in Drawing by just grabbing the text but it only changed the length of the leader. When I grab the leader it "rotates" along the arc.I use to be able to grab the text & do both.Is there some setting for Drawing or Config.Pro that needs to change so I can just grab the text & relocate the text where I want rather than the two-step process of change angle of leader then change leader length?Thanks!

Found what looks to me like a bug. The error message is not very helpful and rather an indication that it is actually an unintentional bug.   In Mathcad the convenient prime operator is not available and so we would have to use Can't check if this way would work in Prime as I am limited to Express and that kind of 'programming' is a premium feature not available in Express. In Prime we get the very same error when using a scalar argument and vectorize   Any comments on this?   Prime 4 worksheet attached    

Anyone have any tips for finding the single sided edges of a merged surface which are preventing a Solidify? I have the upper and lower surfaces of a water jacket which ideally are supposed to merge and solidify so I can use it as a cut from the stock cylinder head. The surfaces merge but Solidify isn't available when you select the merged surface. It looks like there are multiple tiny single-sided edges but I can't find a way of identifying them all.

We are running Creo 9.0.5.0. I created drawing formats and templates in 9.0.9.0 and copied them to our other system. In the titleblock I have a surface finish symbol from the text library included with Creo. On my computers, it shows properly like this: On one of my users, the surface finish symbol is a box.  What could be causing the font to be missing on one computer but not the other. We use a network install of Creo, so everyone is pointing to the same installation of Creo on each network. This is what makes it really confusing.

Hi all, Hoping someone can assist with a solution to this problem. I have just redone my department's drawing template and formats in Creo Parametric 10.0.3.0. However, the original templates we used had our logo in the title block of the drawing format, seemingly embedded as a OLE using MS Paint (?). However, during the process of our computers being upgraded to Windows 11, the logo no longer appeared in the title blocks for drawings (in the printed and pdf exports as well). So, during the template/format updates, I added the logos back into the format as a .bmp OLE via the "MS Word" option. This seemed to work, and all users were able to see the logo - in Creo, as well as printed and pdf exported - along with the logo propagating to new sheets on creation. However, the issue was that regardless of the pdf export settings, the logo would always be a very low resolution & have extremely noticeable pixelation around the edges (not shown in Creo representation).&n

I am using Creo Simulate Release N/A and DatecodeN/AI am running a simulation on a two piece aerofoil. The applied pressures are entered via .fnf files generated using Creo Flow Analysis. The aim is to run a baseline configuration and obtain the Fx and Fz loads to give lift and drag. The next step is to vary the angle of the aerofoil flap and compare the values for Fx and Fz to baseline.Unfortunately the assembly will run in baseline configuration and with the flap angle increased by 1 degree, but fails if the flap angle is reduced by 1 degree. This happens at other angles too but I cannot see why.Here are the errors that I facedSingular mapping, solid element: 1345420The design study terminated abnormally.The element with DBID 1345420 has invalid geometry.

Hello,How do I set positive y-axis  in the downward direction in prime? Regards,Sam

Hello users of Mathcad : ), user of Mathcad Prime 10.0Here is a picture of my problem. I am trying for days to solve it, I just don't understand why it won't work. I need it for a homework.So, I’m working with a rectangular channel where the flow area is A = b × hn. The problem is that I don’t know either b or hn, so to make things simpler, I just assumed the cross-section is square – meaning b = hn. That way, I only have one variable to figure out.I then rewrote the whole discharge formula so that everything (A, U, etc.) depends only on hn. All the other values like the slope and the Strickler coefficient are given.Once I find the hn that gives me the correct flow rate Q, I can always scale it afterwards, like double hn to get b and turn it back into a rectangle if needed. The most important thing is that the flow stays the same.So theoretically, this should work fine, but Mathcad won’t solve it, and I’m trying to figure out what’s going wrong.Thanks for any help.
