I'm trying to simplify a model and I'm not sure how far to go or how much it is worth my time.  I'd like to know if there is a way to analyze how my simplification of a part or assembly affects the graphical performance.  For example if I take out the inner surface of all the tubes is that better than simply focusing on removing the holes.If there was a way to create an analysis that tells me you model has ___ number of faces that might go a long way with knowing how my different simplification methods are improving model performance.That or if there was a way to do an analysis that say your model is using ___ GPU memory.Does anyone from the community know how to do such an analysis?

Windchill 개념 증명(POC)을 실행해야 합니다. 이전에는 "데모 카탈로그"라는 곳에서 데이터를 구할 수 있었는데, 더 이상 이용할 수 없는 것으로 알고 있습니다. 혹시 데모 데이터를 가지고 계신 분이 있다면 공유해 주시면 감사하겠습니다. 그리고 Windchill의 기본 설정부터 최종 설정까지 모든 내용을 다루는 종합 설치 가이드를 어디에서 찾을 수 있을까요? 고객센터에서 받은 설치 가이드는 너무 복잡합니다. 더 자세한 자료가 있다면 공유해 주시면 감사하겠습니다.  

I’m using the bar chart widget with 3 data series. Is it possible to configure a navigation mashup popup so that it appears only on one particular data series (instead of the whole chart)?

Hi everyone, I am currently working on a use case where we have multiple repositories, and each path contains around 25 images, each with a file size of approximately 400 KB.The customer would like to retrieve (“auslesen”) these images via an API from ThingWorx. Before I implement the solution, I would like to get some best-practice recommendations from the community: My Questions What is the best way to prepare and serve many images via API in ThingWorx?Should we use: LoadBinary for each image, LoadImage, SaveImage / Base64 output, or another recommended approach? Is it more efficient and possible to: Return image streams directly, Convert them to Base64, Or provide download URLs (e.g., via Content Caching)? Are there performance concerns when retrieving 25×400 KB = ~10 MB per request from a ThingWorx server?Any recommended throttling, batching, or pagination strategies? Goal We want to provide the customer with a clean, fast, and scalable API that allows the

Hello ThingWorx Community, I am currently working on ThingWorx version 9.6.2-b447 and would like to take a complete backup of the entire ThingWorx application. I am looking for guidance on: How to take a full backup of ThingWorx (Things, Thing Templates, DataShapes, Mashups, Services, Extensions, etc.) Best practices for backing up: ThingWorx platform entities Database (PostgreSQL / SQL Server) File repositories Extensions and custom code Whether export/import, Source Control, or Platform backup tools are recommended for a full application backup Any version-specific considerations for ThingWorx 9.6.x The goal is to have a reliable backup that can be restored in case of system failure or used for migration to another environment. If anyone has step-by-step guidance, official documentation links, or real-world best practices, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.5.0We are unable to open either the VW AG add-on or the Audi add-on (version: 15000100). The standard Creo version (version 11.05.0) is functioning correctly. The two supplier add-ons cannot be started. The Creo version was successfully checked and approved during the add-on installation.This is a Java error. A higher and compatible Java version (Amazon Coretto) is installed.Here are the errors that I faced"Wrong Java Runtime Environment!The defined command "C:Volkswagen\Volkswagen\VWAG_CreoParametric_15000100\app\vw_tools\vw_tools\1.6.2.0\java\x86e_win64\jdk\bin\java.exe" shows version denied.Required ist Java Platform Standard Edition 17 x64 version 17.0.15 or higher.

Team, Please see this file. I believe Mathcad gives the wrong answer for the indefinite integral of ((-1)^x)dx. Let me know what you think. Regards,Glen

Today reminds me of the ethylene glycol boilers I designed for a previous employer whose sole work was to boil liquid natural gas on very frigid day when the natural evaporation process wasn't fast enough to fill the gas pipeline.   Stay warm out there!   Lawyers don't hunt elephants, but they do follow the herds around arguing about who owns the droppings.   (To Be Continued…)

Which table in oracle stores the usage expression data defined in the part usage link ?

In Creo Mechanism (MDO) motion simulation,I would like to use different spring constants for the loading and unloading (return) directions, in order to represent spring hysteresis.Is there any way to simulate this behavior in MDO?If not directly supported, what is the recommended workaround?

Step 11: Build ExtensionStep 12: Import ExtensionStep 13: Next Steps  Step 11: Build Extension You can use either Gradle or Ant to build your ThingWorx Extension Project. Ant is the preferred method. Build Extension with Gradle Right click on your project ->Gradle (STS)->Tasks Quick Launcher.  NOTE: This opens up a new window. Set Project from the drop-down menu to your project name and type Tasks as build.Press Enter NOTE: This will build the project and any error will be indicated in the console window.Your console window will display BUILD SUCCESSFUL. This means that your extension is created and stored as a zip file in your_project->build->distributions folder. Build Extension with Ant Go to the Package explorer -> your_project->.Right click on build-extension.xml->Run As->Ant Build Your console output will indicate BUILD SUCCESSFUL. NOTE:

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.1 and Datecode with CPS 13.1.2.0We installed Windchill PDMLink 13.1 using the PTC Solution Installer (PSI). The installation completed successfully and the Windchill application URL was accessible and working on Day 1.After restarting the server on Day 2, Windchill fails to start and the application returns HTTP 500 errors. The MethodServer does not initialize correctly.During startup, we consistently encounter the following exception:org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Cannot find class com.ptc.odata.windchill.entity.cache.ODataDataSourceServiceThe missing class is referenced in:Windchill/codebase/config/mvc/odataUICore-configs.xml.This indicates that the Windchill OData UI Core / REST-related module JARs are missing or were not installed correctly. The configuration XML exists, but the corresponding OData classes are not present on the classpath, suggesting a partial or inconsistent installation.We attempted recovery steps

This is a clarified follow-up to a previously solved question. The new objective is to compute the soil wedge area, weight, and centroid (CGx, CGy) behind a retaining wall using the mathematical approach described in the attached Mathcad files, and input data is already explained in the attachment. I am using Mathcad Prime 11. Any help would be appreciated. 

Dear All, I am trying to communicate FX5 with Kepserver, however failing to connect despite different trials. I have set PLC setting to SLMP setting with both TCP and UDP port and set it accordingly on the Kepserver. Still not able to communicate with the PLC with Tags value as BAD.I am attaching the pictures for reference also.  

Installed Creo 12 student edition. Upon first install, some issues arose and application icon did not load, likely due to not disabling Windows firewall and defender. Performed 'clean' uninstall using Windows 11 control panel. Reinstallation was only partial, had issues opening .prt files and setting file directory inside Creo, but could still sketch and somewhat operate .prt after creating a copy. However, only some parts would save. Performed another uninstall, this time deleting PTC keys and manually deleting empty files in files explorer. Unzipped zip file in its own folder in C drive. Followed setup after running as admin. Creo common files and parametric did not install: "Prerequisite for Creo Parametric -- Creo 12 Platform Services -- is not satisfied."After looking for solutions online I am not sure what steps are best to take, and I would like to avoid messing with registry keys again if possible.

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: In BOM Transformer, I want to create a New Downstream Part, using a Part Subtype that has already been created in Type and Attribute Management. However, the part drop down list isn't populating.Description: I have already created a new Part Subtype as a Site Admin and I want to use it as a new Downstream Part in the BOM Transformer. However, the dropdown list is only showing the very top level PART as an option. Is there a setting or something I am missing to allow all of the subtypes to be shown?

Hola -Longtime Creo/WF/ProE user (2000i2). Having an issue with fit tolerances using the tables. I've configured both the part and drawing to use the tables. Problem example:I have a 20mm shaft for a bearing; recommended shaft fit is h6. For a 20mm dia, h6 is:+0-13. In inches, that is + 0, -0.0005". So the drawing should show 0.7874/0.7869 if I show limits. I set the diameter to nominal, 0.7874. I apply an h6 tolerance.If is specify plus/minus, the dimension appears at 0.7874 + 0.0000 / -0.0005 (perfect!)If I show 'limits', it changes to the nominal 0.7871 and then applies the -.0005 to that, so 0.7866. This is wrong. What am I doing wrong?  TIA
