Creo Modeling Questions

I’ve made it through the latest wave of comments on the PTC/USER – PTC Community forum merger from both sites. You are all very late in getting an update from the PTC/USER Board of Directors.I agree that email posting and responding to posts is an essential element of what makes the Exploders useful and valuable to our membership. That membership segment tends to be admins or users of the authoring applications like Creo and Arbortext.-Passive notification of responses with complete information, don’t have to go looking for information.If there are more points to add to this list in a succinct manner, I would like to hear from you to add to it.The survey of our members overwhelmingly concluded one community was preferable to two. Specifically referring to PTC/USER and PTC Community. There is confusion about where to post, and the purpose of the two sites. As the representatives of the PTC/USER community we felt we had no choice but to take action and enter into discussions of merging t

Feliks,I like your idea to do Google Groups. If you have time to prototype it, I suggest that you set it up for proesys and proecad and encourage all of us to subscribe to it.In that way, we’d be ready to go if there is no listserv functionality.Barry Schaeffer

Is that possible for drilling If bore diameter and tool diameter are same ?

Hi Everyone -Does anyone know of a way to create a full-time Creo Parametric ribbon tabthat contains UI components like radio buttons and input panels? I lookedat the ProRibbon functions and found no support there.I know I could implement this in a dashboard, but a dashboard cannot bedisplayed in the ribbon at all times. I also don't know how much longerPTC intends to support dashboards, since I don't see many of them in theCreo 2.0 UI.Does anybody know how to embed UI components in a ribbon tab?|+| M a r k |+| Mark Stallard Business Application Services Global Business Services Information Technology Raytheon Company (business) 978-436-8487 (cell) 617-331-5443 - 880 Technology Drive Billerica, MA 01821 www.raytheon.com This message contains information that may be confidential and privileged.

I’ve made it through the latest wave of comments on the PTC/USER – PTC Community forum merger from both sites. You are all very late in getting an update from the PTC/USER Board of Directors.The Board and PTC are continuing our discussions to bring the communities together on to one platform. Our next face to face meeting is in November. I’d like to address several points that have been brought up. Please continue the discussion if there is anything to add to the points below.I agree that email posting and responding to posts is an essential element of what makes the Exploders useful and valuable to our membership. That membership segment tends to be admins or users of the authoring applications like Creo and Arbortext.Advantages are:-No Login to post or reply. Information is exchanged with high velocity and immediacy.-Ability to store posts in personal email clients for better reference and searching.-Ability to interact with users from any device that can transact emails. Phones, tab

And they should be able to just look at all the things that are searched for and look at the results themselves. Or figure out how many different searches a user tries per "event" before giving up and going to the exploder. You have to login to the support site, so maybe do a big data analysis of searches on their site, followed by email posts by the same user to the forum, and then compare the responses from the exploder against the responses from their support site.

Honestly, I'm tired of the conversation about the demise of the exploder. I've ignored the emails this time around.Back in June, Brian Martin gave a good summary of how to set up email notifications on the PTC Community. PTC Community Email Notifications.zip (2014 k)<">http://portal.ptcuser.org/p/fo/do/download=1&fid=25424>Since he's a user of the community, and I find the whole website confusing, I asked him:· How do you typically use this site?· When you go there... where do you go?· How do you find what you want?He sent me the following email. Which is the kind of information that should be promintly displayed on the PTC Community web site.It's not a case of "Build it and they will come". There needs to be some thought of how a person would actually use the site.And then the instruction on how. That's where the community needs some improvement.But all of us need to stop crying in our beer, and figure out how to use the site.David HaighPhone: 925-424-3931Fax: 925-423-749

All -Can someone please remind me where to find the Creo 2.0 release comparisons (what changed/is new/etc)? I think this is where I saw it before..Related question - does M110 have more stringent graphics requirements than M060? I have a user experiencing some issues opening a second model in session after his upgrade.Thanks in advance -Chrystal JohnstoneSeattle, WA

I would like to take a single depth quilt and offset it as a closed solid or quilt in both directions. I am wondering whether there might be a tool that would make this possible.I have looked at the Thicken command and this only allows extension in one direction. I've looked at the Shell command but this appears to not even be available for my unclosed quilt. I'm assuming this also would only allow extension in one direction.Would anyone know if there is a tool in Creo that would allow equal offset extension from the base quilt in all directions?

hallo,jedes mal wenn ich was schließe erscheint dieses:"Sie haben eine Serverressource ausgewählt, um Wiederherstellungsdateien im Speicherort aufzuzeichnen, der un der folgenden Konfigurationsoption festgelegt wurde: last_session_directory_path. Um zu Pro/ENGINEER zurückzukehren und einen lokalen Speicherort für die Wiederherstellungsdateien zu wählen, klicken Sie auf "Schließen".Legen Sie einen Ort zum Aufzeichnen der Dateien fest."Wie kann ich es machen?Danke in voraus.Viele Gruß,Edna

Terry,As a PTC customer who has been one of the faithful since 1988, I could not agree more with what you have said about PTC’s move to kill the PTCUser Exploder.We are too busy to visit your “shiny new website”. We’re too busy trying to compete in this world, and efforts to “control the message” by killing the main channel of debate and dissent will not serve PTC’s purposes.Terry’s message is so important that I feel that it’s appropriate and necessary to reemphasize the key points of his posting.“If you kill PTCUser.org without providing an adequate alternative (read "email notification for ALL posts") then you deserve what you will get - more bitter cynical users that question your every move and refuse to trust the most transparent motives.Sound familiar? It's the very thing you've been trying to patch over ever since the heyday of the 80's and 90's when you built a solid reputation for screwing your own customers. Good times...Seriously - where else are you going to find knowledge

Thanks all, fast response as usual.New link is here:http://support.ptc.com/products/granite/gcri/index.htm

I went looking today for the GCRI (Granite Cross Release interoperability) plugin that allows older versions to open files from newer (2 or 3 releases back, I think), and I couldn't find it. A Google search for "GCRI" or "Granite Cross Release interoperability" came up empty as did a search here at PTC.com. I found a link in an old email to the page for it (http://www.ptc.com/products/granite/gcri/free-download.htm)

Dear PTC.If you kill PTCUser.org without providing an adequate alternative (read "email notification for ALL posts") then you deserve what you will get - more bitter cynical users that question your every move and refuse to trust the most transparent motives.Sound familiar? It's the very thing you've been trying to patch over ever since the heyday of the 80's and 90's when you built a solid reputation for screwing your own customers. Good times...Never mind you're giving Solidworks another example of why they are the easier company to work with - customer focus is just another fad, like pet rocks and MySpace. The really cool companies are establishing a single source of information. Align your strategies, control the message, feed the pipeline... and pretend you don't see that simple solution over in the corner.Seriously - where else are you going to find knowledgeable global experts willing to share their in-depth understanding of your products... FOR FREE!! No company can afford to o

The shocking news from day one of PTC Live is that PTC want's to "absorb" the mail exploder into their on-line communities forum.http://communities.ptc.com you'll see the announcement of this at the top of the page.I went up to Ron and Dan durning the break and said what are you doing to my mail exploder. The answer was there was pressure to only have one source of communication instead of some stuff on the forum and some via the mail exploder. They are having discussions next week on how to transfer the data from ptcuser to the ptc site.I asked if I was still going to get emails and the answer was no.I'm sorry but this is killing the goose that laid the golden egg.Make no mistake, if you don't raise your voice on this issue the mail exploder will disappear.Dave Haigh

I'm trying to replicate a mapkey that i created in creo2 for creo3, but I'm not having any luck.Below is the mapkey that works in creo2mapkey u @MAPKEY_NAMESMART_MARK;@MAPKEY_LABELSMART_MARK;\mapkey(continued) ~ Command `ProCmdDwgCreateNote` ;#MAKE NOTE;#NO ARROW;@PAUSE_FOR_SCREEN_PICK;\mapkey(continued) @PAUSE_FOR_SCREEN_PICK;&PTC_COMMON_NAME:ATT;;#DONE/RETURN;Just some more infomation: when i try to create that same mapkey in creo3 is stops when "&ptc_common_name" SHOULD be automaticly typed in. So pretty much the mapkey works up until the text is supposed to be filled in automaticly. Also, im not sure if this is relevant but i get an error that reads: "Mapkey error: Invalid trail file line : No palette found for command 'ProCmdDwgCreateNote' in context 'context_main_dlg_w3'"thankyou
