Creo+ and Creo Parametric

I am using Creo Parametric Release 3.0 and DatecodeM090License server machine is down or not responding. Cannot launch Creo Parametric. Windchill is performing ok.Here are the errors that I facedLicense request failed for featureRequesting PROE_DesignAdv...7788@US-BOS2-APP4: (-96) License server machine is down or not responding.

Have you have come across a situation where the sketcher is acting strangely? In this case, after trimming off a bunch of lines, the sketcher unexpectedly added in dimensions.  When I investigated this by using the "Modify Dimensions" tool to change the value of the dimension shown, the highlighted (vertical) line moves left to right.  And yet the sketcher keeps insisting that this line is tangent to the fixed-size arc at the bottom:    

dear expert just made this machine please check the jpeg it's 5 axis swivel head type machine. I can make a 5-axis program on the rotary A-B axis attachment, but this machine program does not follow the part position.please need your advice  regards Fisa

I am using Creo Direct Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.3.0A license has been assigned for a user who will use the Creo suite.We installed the Creo suite without any problem and we assign the user license that is available.When we wanted to start one of the Creo software, the software closes directly with a dialog box saying that the license is wrong or has not been recognized.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 5.0 and Datecode5.0.0.0HelloThe customer raised the issue shown in the video in attachment (in French sorry…).It seems that in the actual production, they open a prt under creo parametric, regenerate it, move it and save it. “Save” indicated that nothing changed and no checkout/checkin necessary.In the new env, if they open the same prt under creo parametric, , regenerate it, move it and save it. The tool ask for a checkout/checkin when we save.I don’t have found properties/preferences or else for that. I don’t find the difference…I have found this case:https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs337098?language=en&posno=1&q=regenerate mark as changed&DocumentType=Article&ProductFamily=Windchill&source=searchbut not really understand…could you help us, plz ?

Can Creo simulate nonlinear materials plus large deformations to simulate, for example, aluminum stamping processes for springback at bend process or cracking at drawing process?

I have an older Creo license that we use occasionally for isolated tasks. I had an HDD crash and need to reinstall Creo 3.0 but without an active support account, I cannot download the installation file. Is there any way to get this file without an active support account?

I was trying to create a basic code in Vb which allows me to connect to Creo Parametric. I followed the first steps so, I added PRO_COMM_MSG_EXE to System variables, I ran as administrator vb_api_register.bat and I added Creo Parametric VB API Type Library for Creo Parametric to my VB.NET project.When I try to compile my code, ToolkitCantModify execption appears. Here is my code so I would appreciate if someone could check it because I don´t know if I did something wrong. Many thanks!

I am using Creo Parametric Release 3.0 and DatecodeM050I am trying to show fractional dimensions in inches, not feet-inches. For example, 1' 5-3/4" = 17-3/4".I have tried changing config-pro and I can't seem to find the right option.In the Dimension Properties window, the Nominal Value shows just inches. Why doesn't it show up that way on the drawing?Is there a way I can get it to?Here are the errors that I facedNone

I am using Creo Parametric Release 4.0 and DatecodeM150After changing the dimension of a feature (for example change length from 25 to 1000), all the font size and position of 3D annotations (include dimensions, 3D symbols, 3D finish, Datum Target, Note etc.) are changed. How to config Creo to avoid those changes?

I am using Creo Parametric Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.9.0Korean language is not shown on 2D.Here are the errors that I facedKorean language shows like square box.

Hello!   Im from germany, so please don't mind my bad english 🙂 I've got a problem with Creo Parametric 3.0 on Windows 10 (64bit) The last weeks Creo works fine, but today I grabed accidentally my "Platzierung/Placement" button and now all the parameters disappeared. I can't do any new placements now. I already restart the system 2 times and completly reinstalled my Creo Software. The other buttons (Bewegung/move) working fine! The only thing I can do is "Alt +Tab" to make the Placement window visible, but I can't change anythink because when I click on it, it disappears again.   Thanks a lot for your help, and have a nice day!

Is there a work around for fixing the bom index of flexed components within CREO 6? I am unable to fix the index of anything flexed within a large assembly.

I have some advanced simulation entities in my model from when I had the license for advanced simulation, which I do not have anymore. But with the advanced simulation entities, creo parametric would not open simulate app at all. Can someone please let me know how to delete the advanced simulation entities from my .prt file so that I can access the simulate app? Thanks.

Whenever I create an animation in PTC Creo Parametric it is always the same size. It does not matter if I do it with rendered shots or not. For example, for my 10 seconds animation it is round about 1.5 Gigabytes.That is a lot. In my opinion Creo must store a lot of unecassary information. Does somebody know how to reduce this size? Why is it always the same size? I am exporting with 25 fps on Creo 8.0.4.0

When I convert a metric part to inch I get 12 decimal places on the drawing. how to I limit the decimal places to 4?     

Hello,   On my part, I use the volume milling function to create a slot diameter 4.2mm at the bottom of a side pocket in my part. For that I use an end mill diameter 4 and it works well.     But when I try to use the cutter compensation (G41), nothing changes in the Gcode file.   I have other sequences such as profile milling and the G41 is correctly converted into the GCode. It never works with volume milling?   Does someone have an idea?   Thanks in advance

Hello all, Is there some way to set the filter in the lower right of the status bar programmatically to narrow the selection type? 

How do I assign a weight to a shrink wrapped part with no weight?

I was reviewing a drawing for release and noticed that the engineer had put appended text to a dimension, "TEXT HIGHT" on the drawing face. The word 'HIGHT" is not in either 'dictionary' file, but ModelCheck did not flag it as a misspelled word. Is there a setting for ModelCheck to check appended text to dimensions? If not, I will open an idea to have ModelCheck check appended dimension text.  

I'm having an issue where the diameter symbol is staying bold even after changing the font to legacy. Even if the dimension is created after the font change, it still is bold. The picture below shows the ASME (left) vs LEGACY (right) fonts. I can work around this by manually copying and pasting the diameter symbol from the GTOL frame to the dimension text, but this is slow and a pain on large drawings. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to report this bug to PTC for fixing    

Hello everyone,We will move from Site license server to a global license version. In your opinion, what would be the best approach? To situate, the sites are spread all over the world from Europe, Americas and Asia and each site has its own server and with the move to global licenses it no longer makes so much sense to use server per site. thanks in advanceRui Ferreira 

My Dell Precision workstation has a Quadro RTX5000  I spoke to an Industrial designer friend at Dell before purchasing this laptop and he said never skimp on a video card.    384 resolution on a laptop.   So I was thinking and after using it for the past few years of a few enhancements that might be noted for future releases of Creo.   I thought I would bounce this one by the folks on the forum.  So many probably don't know that if you draw a line in sketcher that you can change the linetype *ptc calls incorrectly a font .... or change color.  I want to also change the line thickness and have a few selections or even be able to increment thickness of lines.  Maybe a developer would consider an option to have the line weight pull thru surfaces or solids as if the surface or solid had a slider for opacity.   Once Creo 9.0 question:  What config.pro setting turns off the menu *always on* in creo 9.0 Bart Brejc

I've used Creo Schematics / RSD for a long time.   My understanding is this tool was developed from Medusa which is why there are .she files.  Medusa 😉   Once I asked you Jim why we cant' Cut and Paste in RSD and you mentioned we can.   So  not wanting to push further I realize maybe I'm wrong.  What I meant to state is something more specific.  So I'm editing a symbol in Schematics.  I want to cannibalize a part of one symbol and use it in another symbol.  CONT C will work in the symbol *BLOCKS I'm on but when I exit out and reach to edit another symbol CONT V or paste is not held apparently in cut paste memory.   And I meant to suggest this 15+ years ago.  Lets call it a symbol not a 'blocks'.  The word 'blocks' is to close to the word block which is part of a block diagram.   I might have wasted 20 hrs in Schematics before even noticing the S on the end 😉  Also we sho
