Creo+ and Creo Parametric

Hello everyone. I am opening CEDM models in Creo Parametric. When calculating the mass properties of a mixed assembly (composed of CEDM and Creo Parametric files) I noticed that the Modeling files have the mass at 0 (PRO_MP_MASS). Is there a way to calculate it? All this without modifying the original Modeling file.Thanks to all.Bye Marco

I have added IEAC (Exclude elements autogem control) to my fixed constraint areas. Autogem mesh also reflects the IEAC control. However, in the solver output file, i still see a warning" Excluded elements may be needed near constrain". Is this normal ?

I am using Creo 6.0 and often have issues with these 4 sided tangent boundary blends. The error says it fails to create tangency in the corner. Is there a reason for this? I understand the bounding curves have to be tangent to neighboring surfaces, and I even experimented with making the curves tangent to the whole neighboring surface and not just the neighboring surface parting line. I have tried 3 sided boundary blends but it often got tight in 1 corner and failed. 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.5.0For hole making manufacturing sequences, for whatever reason ours defaults to all models instead of reference model. To be more clear, I'm referring to when you click on the Mill tab>Holemaking Cycles>Standard (or whatever floats your boat)>References>Details>Options...the dropdown here defaults to All Models, and I am wanting it to default to reference models, since i am setting my reference model. As you can imagine, when we go to make a new program based off of an existing one, and we remove a fixture component, it causes manufacturing sequences to fail because they are being tied to these random models instead of just to the reference model.I have searched config.pro options and the knowledge database and I'm finding nothing that can point me in the right direction on whether the default to this can be set when creating new sequences. If this does not already exist, can this be added as a config.pro option?

I am trying to run a Kinematic type analysis. I could not see the option to enable Termination Condition for the analysis in Kinematic type of analysis. How can I terminate the run after meeting a certain specified condition? Thanks!

I have a family table with a bunch of holes that cannot be patterned because they are in a family table and due to other geometry constrains, the chamfer cant be associated with each hole. Is there a way at the end of the model tree to just chamfer all holes on a surface without specifically picking edge geometry?

Hi Guys,  I would like to apply a chamfer to the highlighted edge.  But every time I apply the chamfer it runs along the entire circumference.  How do I apply it only to one edge. 

In PTC article CS363748 are for the various Creo main versions TOOLKIT sample projects attached.However, only the Debug configuration is preconfigured for these.   As our company is currently working with Creo 10.0, I have taken a closer look at the example project for this version.However, my statements also apply to the projects of the other versions.The Debug configuration can be compiled and linked, but in my opinion it is not correctly preset:The project setting "Configuration Properties > C/C++ > Runtime Libary" should be changed from "Multi-threaded DLL (/MD)" to "Multi-threaded Debug DLL (/MDd)", shouldn't it?Even if this change is made, the project can still be successfully compiled and linked.However, if you then add the line "#include <string>" to the other header files at the beginning of the program code, the DLL can no longer be created and the following error messages appear in the output console:   Rebuild started...1>------ Rebuild All started:

I am using Creo 10.0.7.0.I have created a table in a Creo drawing where I want to enter values—particularly fractional values—in a specific format, as shown in the first image below. However, I haven’t been able to figure out how to achieve this formatting.I’ve tried adjusting the config.pro settings and other available options, but it's still not working. Currently, the values appear as shown in the second image. I hope you can see the difference in formatting between the two examples.   

Hi, I was creating a drawing for the cabling which was done in 3D(CREO 10). While trying to create BoM using repeat region I was not able to include spools as item in BoM. Can anything be done so that the BoM contains spool details also as items and quantity be the total length of each spools required. I was able to create an additional table with spool details but was not able to combine both. Thanks in advance

I have 21 instances in a family table.  The generic contains all the parts for all instances.  I'm creating a  drawing parts list (BOM) for each instance.  I would like the instances with common items to have the same find number fixed in the parts list.  I'm aware you can fix index on the part list (BOM), but I would prefer not to do that on 21 instances.  Is it possible to fix the find index numbers on the generic and have that propagate to the instances as parts list are created for each instance? I'm using CREO 9

Anyone know if it's possible to reverse the zoom direction when using the scroll wheel?In Pro/E rolling the wheel towards you zooms in whereas in every other application I use it zooms out.I understand PTC's thinking in that by rolling the wheel you're manipulating the object however the de facto standard of every other app assumes you're manipulating the eye point.Thanks,Mike FosterATK

Is it possible to open SolidEdge model in Creo assembly using Creo Unite Technology?

I am looking for a way to make a radial pattern given a horizontal dimension from the circular centerline and a radial dimension from a point on that centerline and the spacing is a chord length.     The first hole is 6" horizontal from the center line. The beginning of the radius in 16" below the horizontal centerline. The radial dimension between holes is a chord length of 4". To complete this I backed into it by calculating the angular spacing given the radius and the chord length. Is there an easier way to pattern this than manually calculating the angle?

We are running Windchill 12.0.2.12 with Creo 9.0.7.0. In the last few weeks, we are seeing workspaces suddenly going to offline mode. Windchill was installed over a year ago and Creo 9.0.7 was installed in November. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this behavior? If not, then I will work with our IT department and see if there is something with the network that would cause this. I think I have the config.pro options set to maintain connections.

Hello, I'm trying to get an existing PRT file and assemble it into another assembly.In this assembly I already have a CSYS where I want to mount the PRT. How can I do this using Toolkit? I'm using Creo 8.0.10.

Hi, I'm trying to find out if this workflow is possible with JLink. I need to start Creo, perform an analysis, create a graph, adjust a dimension value, rerun the analysis, and then output a file of the results. I have software that is performing optimizations, and automating this process would be beneficial.Thanks

Hello, I need to make a toolkit that reads the information in an Excel file. I found some libraries in C that does that and I'm trying to use one of them. The one I'm trying to use is LIBXLS (https://github.com/libxls/libxls)This library doesn't give the compiled resources, you have to compile by yourself. After some effort I could compile the library using cygwin (gcc, make, etc...). At the end, I've got the .dll.a and the dll file and all the include files.When I try to use the library in a C program and compile it using gcc, the library works fine.But when I do the same thing to compile the toolkit, it doesn't work.I tryed to use gcc to compile the toolkit, but I couldn't because it depends of some libraries and I'm getting an error when importing the visual studio library libcmt. But the library is not working when I compile the program using the default cl and link from nmake file. What can I do to use the library inside the toolkit?Or there is another option t

The exact calculation of the bolt force in Simulate is only possible by means of contact analysis:  

Hi,I need to create a simple sweep and don't understand if the section of the sweep has to be created obligatorily inside the command.Can't I create the sketch of the section outside the sweep command and select it inside afterward? i'm using Creo 8

Is there a way to change the license server for an existing Mathcad Prime installation without using the GUI within Mathcad? I haven't found anything besides changing the XML file for silent installs, but that's only for before it is installed. I'm able to achieve this for PTC Creo by changing a line in the parametric.psf file and would like to do something similar for Mathcad. Using various versions of Mathcad- 9, 10 and 11.

Hello,I’m working on a 2-speed transmission model in Creo Mechanism, and I need some help setting up the dynamic gear engagement behavior. The transmission has a neutral, 1st gear, and 2nd gear.I start the mechanism analysis in neutral condition.The input shaft is driven by a servo motor rotating at 1000 RPM.A second servo motor is used for gear shifting (e.g., a sliding collar or actuator).           In neutral, all gear connections should be disengaged.When the output shaft engages with 1st gear, only 1st gear should be active, others disengaged.Similarly, in 2nd gear, only the 2nd gear should engage.All this should happen in one continuous analysis, driven by:One input servo motor (rotating shaft),One shifting servo motor (for gear selection).How can I simulate this type of dynamic gear engagement/disengagement in Creo Mechanism using just one servo motor for input and another for gear shifting?
