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 I opened up a ticket and PTCs response was that I need to place the UDF in the same annotation plane that it was originally made in.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 have a custom wizard with 3 wizard steps. In the 3rd step, I have custom button which will open a popup, perform an activity and returns some value to the callback js function in 3rd step. After I receive that value, when I try to reload from javascript function, entire wizard is reloading again and it is going back to 1st step. I need to refresh only 3rd step instead of entire wizard.  Can anyone help me on this?

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.

How can i search for multiple items? I have two part numbers that yield results when searched for separately but when I use a semicolon or "or" nothing comes up. I've multiple variations with spaces and without? What am I missing or is this not possible?  What I am really after is adding a bunch of items to my workspace at the same time from a list I have. If there is a better way to do that I am open to suggestions. 

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 testing imports of Orgs and Manufacturer objects and glad I did. Orgs went in just fine but the MANUFACTURER object was lacking a critcial field and the import ended up creating it in the site level I believe: Now this is not the WTOrganization it is tied to but the container. Obviously, it did not appear correct and it was invisible. In fact, it allowed me to create it via UI methods just fine creating a duplicate. Not sure why if there is only one place they could go, it would default to site which makes it useless.   #CreateSupplier~create~com.ptc.windchill.suma.supplier.LoadSupplier.createSupplier~SupplierType~organization~domain~lifecycletemplate~lifecyclestate~teamTemplate~type #EndSupplier~create~com.ptc.windchill.suma.supplier.LoadSupplier.endCreateSupplier CreateSupplier MANUFACTURER QP001 Basic RELEASED EndSupplier CreateSupplier MANUFACTURER QP003 Basic RELEASED EndSupplier  I think I can do I DB edit to fix this for the one I impo

Hello,  i have this center one below a contained mashup which i am switching among 3 mashups so each mashup has textfields to fill. my question is when i write something in textfield then  i click next and get another mashup and now if i go back to previous mashup then the values which i filled in it would be gone obviously its removing the mashup and loading new one.  i am thinking to achieve this task now to have four containers with each mashup in it and do visible invisible on them and then the values would stay or have four contained mashups in four containers and do invisible visible on them.... i am asking this query to know more about the resolution of this usecase.. any suggestions are welcome..   

In the BACnet software WebCTRL the value is 65.88 but in KEPServerEX the value is 66.  I forced to read and the timestamp updated but the value remained the same. I thought it was rounding it or something. I changed address to a different temperature that did show decimal places and it updated to that point's value and showed decimal places. I then switched the address back and only after doing so did it show a current value with decimal places. It's a little concerning that the value was shown as good and the timestamp having updated but the value  seems to be old. Is there a bug in the BACnet driver or possibly some weird dead band? In WebCTRL the value is currently 65.71 and is fluctuating a tenth of a degree every 5 or 10 seconds. In KEPServerEX it's just stuck at 65.86 and no longer seems to update. The polling rate is very slow but again if I force that one value to read or wait for the normal polling the timestamp updates but the value doesn't updat

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.

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?

I have configured one of my attributes within a custom sub-type to make use of a picker. The picker works fine and some of the code used within the java file for this picker can be seen below: HashMap<String, Object> defaultProps = new HashMap<String, Object>();defaultProps.put("objectType", "wt.part.WTPart");defaultProps.put("pickedAttributes", "number");defaultProps.put("multiSelect", "false");defaultProps.put("showPartType", "ActiveOnly");defaultProps.put("readOnlyPickerTextBox", "false");defaultProps.put("showSuggestion", "true");defaultProps.put("suggestServiceKey", "DocPartPickerId");defaultProps.put("label", "Search for Part");defaultProps.put("pickerTitle", "Search for Part"); The attribute I am making use of is a global attribute and has no constraint enabled on it to make it "Single-Valued". I would like to make my attribute to display adjacent to a "+" icon so that I can associate multiple values with it. However, inclusion of the picker seems to r

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: For exporting packages/deliveries we want the filenaming to be consistent: number_iteration_name_lifecyclestatus This is currently achieved by using the afterEDRloader script, and works on all published files, that are renamed and set as an attachment. We would like to do the same with the files where there is not generated a representation (currently CSV and ZIP).

In Help Center there's a topic "Filtering Gathering Parts" which in the end says: "To assign a gathering part attribute to a Windchill part:1.Set the value of the server-side preference, Operation > Auto Associate > Phantom Assembly Override Attribute Name to a BOOLEAN customer-defined soft attribute2.In the CAD application, set the attribute to yesAuto Associate creates a Gathering Part attribute on the Windchill part when it is created."Filtering Gathering Parts Does this mean:- create a soft attribute to EPMDocument- enter this as value to the mentioned preference- in CAD application use this to define whether the associated WTPart should be a Gathering Part or not- when the EPMDoc is checked in the related WTPart's Gathering Part attribute is updated accordingly This being a "customer-defined soft attribute" on the EPMDoc changing the value iterates the EPMDoc?While Gathering Part -attribute on WTPart is a

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.
