Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: I want to use the Suggested Value List constraint in PartsLink. From the title, I understand it as a list of values (LOV) that can also be filled with free text if needed—a suggested selection that users can refer to, but with the flexibility to enter their own values. My goal is to assign this to attributes to give users more freedom in some cases, while still providing guidance with a predefined list they can use as a reference.Description: Hello everyone,I have a question regarding Suggested Value Lists in the Parts Link module. When I add this constraint to an attribute, I would expect—based on the name—that I get a selection similar to a Legal Value List, but with the option for users to add new values themselves. That’s how I interpret “Suggested Value List,” but it doesn’t seem to work that way for me. When I set it up in the constraint, I provide a LOV, which I can select from, but I can’t add anything myself.Can anyone explain h

The product code was activated successfully, but the file status doesn't allow me to continue. I've attached a screenshot. What should I do? Please help.

I normaly use odesolve in a solve block. However, I.m struggling to learn how to use the other ODE solvers with units. I asked AI to provide an example. Sadly, the AI example also failed. Typical (cryptic error messages:   Mathcad Prime 11 file attached.

Hello,Can we trigger Azure SCM synchronization on event rather than periodic cycle?events happening on Repository, like PR is Merged, PR is created only for such a operations we need to trigger the Sync.

We are using CWC as a solution to provide work instructions to employeesOver 1 year there is a table that growing very fast called workdefinitionhistory (reaching the 1TB soon)What will be the effect if this table will be cleaned?Is there a PTC way/best practice to clean the table?my plan is to archive and move the data to a different storage.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.12.0The mapkey doesn't wait for the simulation to end in the Material Removal (Module Works).Once the simulation is started in the Module Works window, all buttons except the Stop button are disabled until the simulation ends.How can I add a script to the mapkey that queries the window and waits for the simulation to end?Thanks

can i delete the ptcsh0 folder that i get when unzipping MED-100WIN-CD-470_10-0-9-0_Win64 or will that cause problems? Because it contains very heavy files

Hi All, When applying tolerances to dimensions, if I select Symmetric the box is greyed out so I can't enter a value.  When I select Plus-Minus only one box appears for the minus value. This problem has just appeared and is present if I try to alter the tolerance on the model or the drawing.  I have Creo 5 and 11 installed on my PC and the problem is present in both versions even though they read different config files.  When My Colleague opens the files on his PC the problem isn't present.   Symmetric selected:Plus-Minus selected: Any help greatly appreciated! Kind regards, Clive 

Problem Description:I am having trouble displaying part-level dimensions in a drawing view when both the part and the assembly are in Simplified Representations.What works:Dimensions show correctly in the standalone Part model (both Master and Simplified Reps).Dimensions show correctly in the Assembly drawing if the view is set to the Master Representation.The Issue:When I switch the Assembly drawing view to a Simplified Representation, the part-level dimensions disappear.I want to display the part in its own "Simplified" state (to show specific geometry/features) within an assembly-level view, but Creo seems to lose the feature references required for the dimensions once the assembly "simplifies" that component.Goal:I need to show the simplified version of the part in an assembly drawing view without losing the ability to show model annotations/dimensions for that part.

Hey All, I am running in to a bottle neck of the amount of files we want to want to send over the wsems server.thingworx 9.7.0wsems 5.5.0 Wsems config:{ "ws_servers": [{ "host": "*ip of host*", "port": portnumber }], "ws_connection": { "socket_read_timeout": 1, <!-- tried with and without this line, no noticeable impact--> "encryption": "ssl", "verbose": true <!-- false seems to have a small positive impact--> }, "certificates": { "validate": false, "disable_hostname_validation": true,<!-- i know this is bad, but we use wildcard certificates... https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS389668 --> "allow_self_signed": true, "cert_chain": "" }, "appKey": "*appKey*", "auto_bind": [{ "name": "*name*", "gateway": false }], "http_server": { "host": "localhost", "port": *port*, "content_read_timeout": 2000, "ssl": true, "authenticate": false, "certificate": "*certificate*", "private_key": "*private_key*", "passphrase": "*passphr

I needed to do a good cleanout, so I cleaned up all my workspaces then deleted my .wf folder. Not to  unusual but may be the first time since moving to creo 10 (late last year)  that I have done this. I run config.pro option to load my ui customization from my run directory  -  load_ui_customization_run_dir yes I was surprised that after deleting my .wf, I lost my settings even tho I had checked prior to deleting that the one in my startup directory customization ui file was dated recently, which i thought confirmed my location.   What did I miss?

Attempting to use a range to help determine a solve block but am struggling to get this function to work. Any ideas on how to debug this issue? See attached image.    

Selecting a feature from the model tree and hiding its visibility will make the feature not visible. Selecting a feature from the model in the workspace window and hiding its visibility places the feature on a hidden layer and it cannot be seen again (even if you make it visible on the model tree) unless you remove it from the hidden layer in the layer tree. I don't understand why I cannot unhide it from the model tree without first removing it from the hidden layer on the layer tree. I primarily use Creo for CAM programming and really have no use for layers, so I find this pretty annoying.  I don't think it was like this prior to going to 10.  Is there a fix for this behavior? Thank you,Matt

Version: Windchill 12.0   Use Case: Installed CPS 12.0.2.26 Try to Stop Windchill Service (e.g. for backup purposes) Description: When I try to stop Windchill service within "Services" or by running 'sc stop "PTC Windchill"', it would not stop correctly.  In "Services" I get an Error 1053:   'sc stop "PTC Windchill"' just reports "STOP PENDING", but nothing more (no additional error message).   After around 4 minutes, the service finally stops, but I guess, that windows just terminates all corresponding processes after a certain time.   MethodServer.log reports several [Servlet engine stop] wt.system.err - WARNING: The web application [Windchill] appears to have started a thread named [xyz] but has failed to stop it.

Version: Windchill 13.1 Use Case: for a new version of a tool we provide, we want to create a custom page with multiple tabs. currently we used classic simple html / javascript - but we want to upgrade to mvc components to maintain more the "windchill ui look"Description: at first I thought about using a custom wizard.a wizard has in general multiple tabs - but the concept isn't really matching as the tool should have tabs for different manage actions / checks. wizards reflect more a step by step process.I'm looking for a way to build a page like the windchill object detail pages.For tool I'm planning about 5 fixed tabs. each tab would have multiple tables, radios, checkboxes and input fields.Any suggestion how to achieve this?thanks in advance!

Hi members,   Are you all aware of any code to auto republish failed jobs in windchill ?    

Can anyone let me know the advantages and use case for using "Program" Context.  I'm unfamiliar on their use case.

Modern manufacturing is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by stricter regulations, increased awareness of workplace safety, and a growing emphasis on sustainability. Among the many changes shaping this evolution, the shift toward safer rubber chemicals stands out as a critical development. Industries that rely on rubber materials  — such as automotive, industrial equipment, healthcare, and consumer goods — are increasingly prioritizing chemical systems that not only deliver performance but also meet evolving safety and environmental standards. In this context, companies like I R Tubes Pvt Ltd  are part of a broader movement supporting more responsible material solutions.

As per the original post.   Hi,   I have the similar problem as NM_12850686.
