Peter Case‌,Any idea what would be causing my subscription emails to get automatically suspended?  This is the second time in the last moth or so that I've stopped receiving messages only to see this when I start trying to figure out why:I assure you, I never selected this preference.  Is this something a tech support engineer might have done?  (They should tell me if they did!)  Is there some automated process that might automatically turn this on?  As soon as I turn it off the emails start flowing again, but I hate losing a couple of days worth of messages before I realize they've stopped again.  Thanks.

Is there any tutorial for Smart Assembly for Creo? I have been scourging the internet for any learning material, I could only find few YouTube videos of the initial setup.

Hi,I just learned about the creo machining feature and I am curious how to use it. If I have just a regular .prt file where do I start? The NC manufacturing seems to demand a .asm file and not a .prt file to import. I would appreciate if anyone could point me in the direction of a tutorial or reading material.Thanks!

On the license management page using my host id I can not deinstall a license. The host id shows the license is installed but there is no check box and the only button available is the rev up button which does nothing.

Communicating technical information is equally important as developing the technology. There are many use cases where engineers need to communicate about their design intent, ask for feedback from or share ideas with colleagues, or write technical instructions. To be successful, it is important to convey your intent with a clear message. I am sharing few writing tips based on the personal experiences of my engineering colleagues at PTC.   Understand your audience Before you begin, remember whom you are writing it for, your customers, your fellow engineers or may be your managers. Think proactively and plan your writing patterns of explanation by aiming your audience’s level of technical knowledge, abilities and level of expertise. Understanding their roles in an organization, their choices and what information they need from your writings is essential in shaping how you should write.   Keep it simple and short Brief it in simple and short – sounds easy, but is sometimes very

We see problems through different perspectives and practice several ways to solve them. Here are some simple yet effective measures I am using.   Define Identify your issue first! Exploring what exactly is going wrong isn’t always easy and may require you to think this over repeatedly.   If performance of your tasks/project is substandard, one of the reason could be that only a small module in your project is not performing well. Sometimes there may be an issue with the wider structure of your project. No matter what the source of the issue is, you may need to repeatedly check and verify the cause of the trouble before taking actions to address the symptoms.     Mark options Once you have your problem clearly defined, your goal is to find ways to solve the problem. Writing down your options will help you get an overview and help you prioritize.     Evaluate your options Now is the time to evaluate! Now, carefully analyze all of the possible alternatives b

  Students, young professionals as well as advanced users invest funds, efforts and time for training themselves for professional development, and all may have different preferences. Being at an early stage of my own career, I have been looking into training concepts and done quite some reading lately. Here are five recommendations based on my observations and reading. Let me know how you think about these and please leave a comment!   Choice Any learning content is effective only when it gives the learner an opportunity to explore, understand and apply their knowledge. This can be accomplished with many of today’s digital learning solutions, for example. Interactivity, access to digital resources, and project-based learning, are just a few keywords in this context. The value of each model is determined within the context and purpose of use. With the big amount of options, make sure to discuss with peers and your manager to get recommendations.   Confidence This is oft
