I would like to know best way to create .nwf file from excel file for creating cabling through logical data.

I recently purchased a laptop running Windows 11 Home. I installed Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0 using a university license provided by my university in Denmark.The problem occurs every time I try to save or export a file — the application crashes immediately. This happens consistently and makes the software unusable for my studies.To rule out system-related issues, I have:Fully reset my laptop (clean Windows installation)Reinstalled Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0 after the resetDespite this, the problem still occurs.

Hi all,I’m exploring solutions for integrating single-sign-on (SSO) or secure login workflows from enterprise systems to external employee portals such as MyTime Kroger. Has anyone implemented this using PTC tools (like ThingWorx Auth, Windchill SSO, or Identity Provider integrations)? What approaches or challenges did you encounter?Thanks!

After a month of experimenting and testing stability for PTC Creo, I would like to share my solution that will allow you to freely run PTC Creo on your Mac 😊Tested Requirements:These are the requirements that I have personally tested, any other version/device may not work similarly.Tested VMware Fusion Version: 13.6.4Tested 64-bit ARM Windows 11 build: 26100.4349Tested Mac Devices: Mac Mini M4 (24GB RAM), MacBook PRO M1 Pro, MacBook Pro M4 Pro, MacBook Air M3.Tested Creo Releases: Creo 10, Creo 12Tested MacOS Operating System: Tahoe 26.0.1Installation Steps:Download the latest 64-bit ARM Windows 11 build, or better, the one I listed. I sincerely recommend CrystalFetch app (it's free) for getting the ISO file. Create a new Virtual Machine on VMWare Fusion with the previous ISO.Install your Windows operating system, update it, configure it to your liking, etc...Make sure that in your VMWare settings you have enabled the following:1) Settings -> Display -> Accelerate 3D G

Hi, it was requested on my company to focus on Mathcad for calculation of new designs.It is a great tool, but how can I replace Excel in a inductor design like the image attached?Where I need/can see the different designs all together to evaluate them.Here we use Mathcad Prime 10.0.1.0. Thank you for the support.  

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: How to customize the Thumbnail Navigator in order to show the buttons 'navigate Thumbnails' and 'Related Information' besides each other and not as in the ootb-way where one hides the other?Description: Since either 'Related Information' or 'Navigate Thumbnails' is constantly hidden and users (!) don't remember what they don't see, I wanted to make both buttons visible at the same time, as alternatingly pressed/unpressed buttons. Small fix, huge transparency improvement.Well, the question is now about which file to customize...?It seems to end up all in the huge ...netmarkets/javascript/util/ext-and-extensions.js , but I suspect that this is not the 'real' source which we would want to customize...I also think it's not 'officially' supported for customization, but nevertheless the layout must be defined somewhere... Has anybody a hint or an idea?Best Regards 👍

We are working on upgrading our Thingworx platform from version 8.4.0 to version 9.1.2.  As part of this change we are also switching databases from PostgreSQL version 10.6 (TW8.4) to MSSQL 2016 (TW9.1).  We also have the ThingWorx Manufacturing Apps.   Since we've collected a lot of data, I'm trying to identify the best way to migrate both our Assets model and data.  However, some of our searches turned up concerns in migrating from a PostgreSQL implementation to MSSQL. Particularly these articles (which apply to TW8.4) are of concern:  CS305602 - Is it possible to migrate from H2 or PostgreSQL to MS SQL in ThingWorx?  CS303818 - Migration from other databases to MSSQL is not supported in ThingWorx    Based on these articles, it sounds like the values in the "entity_id" and "source_id" columns of our current "value_stream" and "stream" tables must not exceed 128 characters. Could we get a confirmation on this?  Are there any other cons

I have been trying to follow some previous discussions on creating a tube profile, but haven't had any luck: https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Creo-4-0-Framework-custom-tube-profiles/m-p/675536 https://support.ptc.com/help/creo/creo_pma/r7.0/usascii/#page/advanced_framework/About_Saving_Advanced_Framework_Customizations_Outside_Installation_Directory.html# Following the instructions, I have copied the customization folder to a network drive, however I noticed that the customization folder did not contain the three sub directories (*see attached) as mentioned in the instructions--they were separate.  I tried dropping them into the Custom folder on my local copy.After making a copy I tried two things: 1.)making a new folder directory and then copying and editing an existing profile2.) adding a size to an existing profile neither has worked. I have mapped the customization folder in the afx options with no luck.  I have also tried

Hello, is there any possibility to read files from network drives? try { print(readFileAsString("\\\\10.170.84.24\\Standard\\ProE_standard\\Relace\\Relace PRT.txt")); } catch (e) { print("FAILED: " + e); }  I need to read fresh relations so all models actual relations. The only one place in our company provides relations is network drive.

Hi, Can someone help me to create a relation in a bom to change a parameter to another number for cage_code? I have something at the bottom of the relation in the bom table that is obviously incorrect. I have attached a simple drawing in creo 8. If you can perform the task and return to me then I will understand how it is done. Should only take a guru less than 5 minutes. Wayne

问题反馈：Creo tf_a4.frm 模板工程图 start 定位注释消失致 SVG 导出 BOM 偏移问题现象：使用 tf_a4.frm 最新模板制作带爆炸视图的工程图，为满足 SVG 导出需求添加「start」定位注释符号；执行【工程图保存 + 关闭 + 拭除未显示】操作后重新打开图纸，会触发系统弹窗警告，无论选择「继续」或「审阅」，添加的「start」定位注释均直接消失；最终导致该工程图导出的 SVG 文件中，右侧 BOM 清单位置出现偏移，无法正常对齐

Hi.How can i get display name of Enumeration entry?I can get attribute value using LWCNormalizedObject. But it returns internal name of enumeration entry.Thanks.

I created a Thingworx app that includes a Thing Shape containing a Transformed property (Platform Analytics enabled) based on another property in the Thing Shape.  I used the "Package" feature in my app's Project to export it as an extension.When I attempt to import the package as an extension into my QA server, it fails with this error: Error parsing /<PATH>/ThingworxStorage/extensions/temp/<PACKAGE>/Entities/ThingShapes/Entities.xml - make sure the file was not created with newer version of Thingworx: (370, 30): cvc-complex-type.3.2.2: Attribute 'aspect.dataCollectionMethod' is not allowed to appear in element 'PropertyDefinition'.**PATH and PACKAGE are the path to ThingworxStorage and package name respectively. Looking in the xml, the 'dataCollectionMethod' aspect it's referring to appears to be part of the Transformed property's definition.  I attempted to remove this aspect from the xml manually, zip up the files, and import as package again; I just

Hi,I am looking at converting a large number of legacy mathcad files to mcdx files. When I try to run the converter, it fails pretty much immediately, with an error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040CB6): Unknown Error at mcautomation.IMathcadWorksheets.Open(String pFileName) at ConverterLoader.Xmc...Please can you advise what the issue might be here?ThanksJames

I'm relevely new to Mathcad. and today i run into a weird issue.I have created a plot. and the first trace works as expected. The second one... the data is there but it isn't plot the way as i expected.With symbols on i see the dots. but the line in between isn't plotted, and i don't have a clue why it isn't plotted at all.I have tried to change the circle to also have 3 points what works perfect. The example here defines also data and works also. I tried changing data; plot types; etc, but nothing works.I hope somebody here has an idea

Bonjour,Je suis un ancien employé de PTC et j'utilise CREO dans un but purement distrayante  sans aucune intention commercial ou industriel . J'utilisais la méthode "Request activation key". Cependant cette méthode génère maintenant un code error 520 et je n'ai plus accès á CREO. Merci de votre aide Victor Lopes

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.3.0I used CREO Distributed Batch to run DXF export mapkey task but keep failing, I've confirmed there is no any Creo launch initialization dialog box pop-up when running CREO client and I tried both default export task type and my mapkey they all failed. I don't see any log file generated. I ran my mapkey manually and it did work successfully

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: WGM 13.1.2.0 with Solidworks 2024SP5.0. Opening an NX assembly (version compatible for import) in Solidworks through the workspace doesn't display any bodies. The same assembly - when exported from the workspace to a local drive - opens fine. Description: One of my engineering teams started using Solidworks. I prepared a WGM 13.1.2.0 installation to work with SW2024SP5.0. Most of our CAD data is in NX. Immediately we notice that when trying to open an NX assembly, Solidworks doesn't display any bodies but does display the structure.    However, when we export the NX assembly out of Windchill and open it in Solidworks from C:\ drive, everything opens just fine.    First pass tech support with Solidworks suggests this is a PTC problem on account of the NX assembly opening fine from a local drive.    Has anyone run into this issue? The attachment shows that SW can open the individual parts from the NX assembly and tho

When zoomed into my model, I am noticing significant lag when panning, rotating, and trying to sketch. I did not see this issue previously when using 11. I updated to 12 due to an update of my graphics card but I am still editing a file created in 11. I haven't used Creo in a while, but I don't remember it being like this.The image shows how far away my sketch cursor is from my mouse. After a bit the sketch cursor catches up. Is this behavior normal?

We maintain both Production count and Waste count in an external database. These values are fetched programmatically into RTPPM, as described here: PTC Community – How to update the production count using Production Event UID. In addition, we track rejection part counts with multiple rejection reasons. Our requirement is to update these rejection reasons in RTPPM as well.   The question is: Can multiple waste events be created programmatically under a single Production Event UID to capture different rejection reasons with rejection count?   @mstarnaud
