Bonjour Lié à "Article - CS301880" et à la réponse "Rapporté à la R&D sous le nom SPR 7103515". https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS301880 Pourquoi conserver des variables qui ne sont plus utiles et qui restent attachées au modèle. Le plus important est que ces variables, si elles existent dans nos modèles, sont immuables même si leur utilité plus n'est prouvée. Comment tout cela va évoluer avec les révisions et les différents modules de PTC. Donnez aux administrateurs le choix de faire évoluer leurs modèles et fichiers existants à leur guise en fonction de leurs contraintes. D.DUBOST   

Hello Everyone,Thanks for helping me before, I have another problem which may need your assistance. I am trying to export drawing files to PDF using JAVA (Jlink) with CREO PARAMETRIC. The code works, but sometimes, specially while exporting drawings that have assemblies, the Export function throws a Exception XToolkitCommError. Code: PDFExportInstructions Mypdfexportinstructions = pfcExport.PDFExportInstructions_Create();PDFOptions Myoptions = PDFOptions.create(); PDFOption MyPdfOption_Color = pfcExport.PDFOption_Create();MyPdfOption_Color.SetOptionType(PDFOptionType.PDFOPT_COLOR_DEPTH);MyPdfOption_Color.SetOptionValue(pfcArgument.CreateIntArgValue(PDFColorDepth._PDF_CD_COLOR));Myoptions.append(MyPdfOption_Color);   PDFOption MyPdfOption_Layer = pfcExport.PDFOption_Create();MyPdfOption_Layer.SetOptionType(PDFOptionType.PDFOPT_LAYER_MODE);MyPdfOption_Layer.SetOptionValue(pfcArgument.CreateIntArgValue(PDFLayerMode._PDF_LAYERS_NONE));Myoptions.append(MyPdfOption_Layer);PDFOption MyPd

Hi,   I am trying to run example Asynchronous J-Link Application with CREO 7.0, there were some exceptions and error which I have resolved, but still it throws me this error while running the app. Error: Cannot initialize message system; index file apsmsg.ndx not found Exception: com.ptc.pfc.Implementation.pfcExceptions$XToolkitGeneralError   Can anyone help, thanks!Hamza

We have an old config file where blended_transparency is set to No. The current Creo default is "Independent". I have no justification for why it was originally set to No, but I'm sure there was a good reason at one time.    From what I can tell, blended_transparency affects the preselection highlighting. When you hover over with blended_transparency set to No, you get a crosshatch sort of highlighting. With blended_transparency set to Yes, you get a nicer looking shaded highlighting. I'm not sure how independent and yes are different.    Does anyone know the difference between the Yes and the Independent setting? Also, how do the options compare for performance? Does having blended_transparency set to No improve preselection highlighting in large assemblies?

I am using Creo Parametric 2.0 M250Situation: In a closed network, the firewall has open ports Server Manager Port: 7788 and Vendor Daemon Port: 7789. Question: The user has to wait at least 20 minutes for the ASM file of the fixture to be opened, so please help how to deal with it or possible solutions, thank you.

Hi,in the help center it is not clear how to use REGEN TYPE in manufacturing.   ◦ Normal—Regenerate a part normally. ◦ Slow—Regenerate a part, and displays the part and tool path after regenerating each manufacturing feature. ◦ Step—Regenerate a part, waits for user input after regenerating, and displays each manufacturing feature. ◦ Supp Fail—Automatically suppress any features that fail upon regeneration, along with their children. ◦ Compute CL—Specify if you want the CL data to be recalculated at regeneration time.   Exactly how should they be used?Can you give me some examples?   Thanks

Hi All,   I'm playing with flexible component in otk.  I'm able to set as a flexible component in the case when the flexibility of the part was done by dimensions (ModelItemType.ITEM_DIMENSION).    Part of my code:  AssemblyItemInstructions ThisAsmInstr = wfcComponentFeat.AssemblyItemInstructions_Create(ItemOwner,ModelItemType.ITEM_DIMENSION, dim_id_array.get(i));   Question is: what is the proper syntax of ModelItemType argument, to get parameter?? There is written in "Creo Object TOOLKIT Java User's Guide 7.04.0" page 494:   (...)wfcComponentFeat.wfcComponentFeat.AssemblyItemInstructions_Create creates a new instance of the object wfcAssemblyItemInstruction that contains the instructions to define a variant item for a flexible component. Specify the model owner, item type, and item ID as input arguments of this method. The input arguments are:• ItemOwner— Specifies the model owner of the item or parameter.• ItemType— Specifies the item type. Th

Hello, If I change the model edge thickness in the pen table, the table edge thickness is changed too. How can I change the model edge thickness without changing the table edge thickness?   Thank you    

Hi All,   I'm trying to create a bulk item for my panel. It's a simple concept, where I specify 2 parameter with the type "length measure" to calculate the area of my panel. Problem is, parameter values always returns the value of zero in both parameter list and in the repeated region in the drawing. I tried searching for hours but no luck. Please ASSIST! I'm using Creo 7.0.0.0

Sometimes I like to animate flexible things that can't be done with kinematics (e.g. springs), or setup complicated simulations depending on a time parameter.  Setup a relation such as "value = value + 1", and the model will update with every regeneration.  Then save an image file after each update, and create a GIF (or other video file) with the results.  This is pretty easy to do if you only have a small number of frames, but for a large number, the lack of automation will become a problem.   I had initially thought I could automate this with a mapkey, but I hit a brick wall trying to save an image with a unique filename each time.  (I got as far as using relations to compose a properly formatted filename, getting a mapkey to copy the value, and paste into the filename field when saving the image... but turns out mapkeys are actually not capable of copy/paste operations on playback.)  I wound up creating a mapkey that calls a windows batch file, which wr

Hi, we have a problem with family tables (Windchill 12.0 and Creo 7)   two different things happens: 1. new part - draw some generic model - make family table - save file - upload- checkin 2. new part - draw some generic model - save file - make family table - upload- checkin   in case 1 in the folder we find 1 generic file and all instance files (if we add new children we get new instance files) in case 2 in the folder we find 1 generic file, no instances (if we add new children we get no instance files)   in both cases the instances are working and can be added to an assembly. How can we make get rid of the differences - which behavior is the correct one? do we need to worry about one of this behavior in terms of data loss? in cas 2 if we go to attributes we see all instances.  

Using Creo Parametric, is there a way to add a bump map and have it generate / modify the surface to allow the texture to be part of the model? My aim is to be able to 3d print a part with a texture (from the bump map) to it.

Hi alls,I can't install Corel Draw (2020 - 2021) nor Corel Technical 2020 on Windows 10 when Creo2 & Creo7 are installed.I've noted this on 2 computers.On one of them, I've got a second win10 (dual boot) without PTC software and I can install Corel without problem.Very strange but it's the only difference.Instead of normal Corel installer Window, I get image attached and nothing happen.Does someone knows if there is any compatibility problem with Corel installer ?Any advice ?Thanks

Dear community, in CREO 4 inside the model tree definition (Model Tree Columns) I found a type called "Debug". Beside others I can show "Trail Name" and "node_id" for each feature in the model tree.                             Does anybody know where those parameters are stored? I was not able to access them on a feature or model level. I would like to access these two parameters inside OTK java/JLink, so I have to know where they are stored.   Thank you and kind regards Michael

Hello!   I have the problem, to control the twist of ribon. I rotate the coordinate systems without result. How to do it? Thank you in advance!   Greetings!

When we run ModelCheck in Save mode, the report does not always get displayed for the user to see. I have the following settings in the config_init.mc file.   # Show ReportSHOW_REPORT YN Y Y Y Y #HTML report creationHTML_FILE_OUTPUT YN Y N N Y   Is there another setting or something in the code that does not display the results like on a second save of the same file? I have modified the templates\mctabarea.js to always display the info and pass checks.

PTC has apparently made changes to the code for Windows 10 (compliance for MS standards?) that cause flashing windows to be visible when running mapkeys. The visible mapkeys config option has no effect on this, I have a product enhancement request posted, please vote for it to get it on the to do list for development. This config option only works on the original menu based UI items and not the new GUI so it is rendered ineffective starting with WF release.   PTC explanation for the newly flashing windows: P-50( Creo 5.0) lets Windows 10 add the desktop window manager glow to the borders of its windows.  When Windows does that it changes the composition level of the window, which affects the timing etc. of things such as map and unmap.  What you are seeing in P-50(Creo 5.0) is surely the fact that Windows takes marginally longer now to show/hide a window.   Vote for the fix to be implemented here: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric-Ideas/Update-functionali

Hi Team, We have a need to build custom code to get part number associated with drawing residing in the workspace of Creo Parametric. Could you please help with this?

As per this thread - similar issue   @OliverGräbner Is there a limit on the number of hole charts we can specify with SCR_THREAD_SERIES_THREAD? Using Creo 4 M150 and IFX40-M041, it seems like only the first 5 will load into IFX, but we would like to use 6 to get different hole notes for key and knife inserts.   SCR_THREAD_SERIES_THREAD STD_THD M_THD STD_KEY M_KEY STD_KNF M_KNF   Switching the order changes leads to the last one not loading: SCR_THREAD_SERIES_THREAD STD_THD M_THD STD_KNF M_KNF M_KEY STD_KEY  

I am making program using creo manufacturing and using CAM Post post processer to convert it in Fanuc controller program. But machine is very old control system or something else is locked in machine, which is not able to read i, k command used in Radius turning step and only able to understand "R" command.   How can we make CL file which should have 'R' command instead of i,k command for radius machining in 2-axis turning machine?

Hello,   I am using a 2013 Macbook Pro (Retina , 15-inch Early 2013) with VM WareFusion running Windows 10 64-bit edition. I installed the PTC Creo 3.0 Student Edition and when opening a new part I am getting a BLACK SCREEN in the work space. I did some googling and alot of people are saying to go to the Options> Config Editor> Search Graphics and change it to something else than what is currently selected. Unfortunately when I use the FIND function to search for GRAPHICS nothing shows up.   Here are some specs for my machine   Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory 16 GB DDR3 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForceGT 650M 1024MB     VMWARE Settings:   I've allocated "4 processors"   16348 Mb of memory   I do have assignments i need to finish so i am in a bit of a rush to have this resolved and it would be great if anyone with some experience can help me out! thank you!

One thing that I liked in my SolidWorks days, is the fact that I was able to make some tests in bending machine, and it was really easy to define bend deduction of a certain material and bend condition. And easier to input in solid works. In Creo we have k factor and y factor. I'm able to do some math and determine the k factor and y factor from the trials made in bending machine. It would be easier that CREO had this possibility also.   https://blogs.solidworks.com/tech/2014/10/understanding-bend-allowance-options-in-solidworks.html
