Have a great weekend. And for those in the United States have a great Labor Day on Monday.  There once was a young engineer, who having worked for several years, decided that he and his family should have a weekend getaway place. He searched the surrounding country, and found a lovely spot with frontage on a small river. They built a cabin, and began spending time there every chance they got. The kids loved it, and friends came for the quiet and fishing.   The engineer, however, wanted something unique for his cabin. He had been an award-winning pole vaulter in college. He therefore built a set of poles with a crosspiece, and a mulched run. He bought a new carbon fiber vaulting pole, new shoes, and was set. He would set off down the run, plant his pole, soar over the crosspiece, and land in the river with a satisfying splash. What a great way to spend a hot afternoon. He tried to teach a few friends to vault, with no success.  He enjoyed his cabin for years, and went out

Hello all, I hope you're having a great summer. It's time to start talking about our next meeting, the who/what/when/where. I'd also love to hear your feedback on our first meeting, what we did well, what we can do better. Have a great week!   --Geoff

How can I make modifications to an existing BOM table? I have a long list of part for an assembly and I have to keep adding parts as I go forward. I have used paginate to split the table into 2 separate tables on page 1 of my drawing. The problem is that when I add more parts the table will add the parts to the second page. If I add a segment to the first page of the BOM it adds the segment as a separate table and won't connect it to the original table. How do I expand the table and keep it as a complete segment instead of a bunch of little separate segments? What is the best way to keep making modifications to a BOM table on an existing drawing?

Bonjour,Je suis novice sur Pro-E WF 5 et je ne sais pas comment je pourrais faire pour que l'esquisse d'un enlèvement de matière (en bleu ciel) dans mon modèle 3D apparaisse afin de le coter dans la mise en plan, car ce serait la trajectoire de la fraise pour l'usinage.Si quelqu'un a une solution simple, je suis preneur...Merci d'avance et bon appétit!

There are many situations where documents need to incorporate information stored in a database. A simple approach is to generate a report of the data from the database, and then copy and paste the data into the document. Unfortunately, that approach tends to be labor-intensive and error-prone, and can easily lead to out-of-sync documents if the database is updated but the document is not.   To make the process of embedding data in documents easier, Arbortext Editor and Publishing Engine support Data Merge, a framework for embedding data queries in your documents and for formatting the data results for publishing.   Data merge lets you set up query types tailored to your database. When a query is inserted into a document, it pulls current data from the database to complete the document. You can parameterize the general queries, allowing content authors to use straightforward dialog boxes to create specific queries. You can also control how the system handles updates. You can u

After many forays across the new frontier of ECAD Design Data Management, Fujistu Network Communications and PTC were excited to present and demonstrate the flexibility and value of the Cadence TDO environment and it’s connection to Windchill. The presenters discussed how to harness the joint power of each technology to provide a single, integrated system that enables a reduction in the  design cycle time and increase your time to market goals.

Automating product and processes may reduce effort to launch or change a product configuration by up to 70%. The presenter discuss a proven high-level vision that provides a connected product development eco-system, while providing clarity through an enterprise dashboard. This resolves the issues of everything being manual, lack of executive visibility, fragmented systems, and lack of global infrastructure.

I installed Creo 3 today for testing on a computer for one of my users.  They started it up and got the below image.So what do you think the black spot at the bottom of the picture is?  They say it's a coffee cup that is on a laptop but I'm not so sure.  What do you think?If it is a coffee cup the why the heck would someone put liquid ON a computer?  And why would PTC promote that?

Be blessed and have a great weekend:

Legal publishing uses a lot of attributes, and CCH publications are some of the richest legal reporting available. When we converted to SGML nine years ago, one of the first things our users requested was a way to modify attributes globally outside the Arbortext Editor Modify Attributes dialog. Often they have been required to open XML files in Notepad, or Edit as XML Source to change attributes in large files, which led to error and was very time-consuming. The project got on the schedule in 2007, and we started the initial analysis, starting with what language to write the tool in, and how to create the interface.   Because this tool requires a good deal of querying the DTD, we decided to write it in ACL. The interface requirements included making it impossible for a user to create invalid XML. For example, the tool needed to remove #FIXED attributes from the attribute list, and, if the user wanted to delete attribute values, the tool needed to remove #REQUIRED attributes from t

Back Office -- Hack Your Interactive Technical Content ! In this session, Shop Coach Duan Gauche of ProductOne will show you how to band-aid Arbortext SIS and get your parts list out of Creo Illustrate and into Arbortext. Duan will show how to place your parts list in Arbortext Editor. He's going to show a small app that he developed that opens a Creo Illustrate file and then automatically inserts the parts list from the selected figure into your editor session at the current position of the cursor.   View Duan's original blog post on this subject: http://p1arbortext.wordpress.com/2011/10/12/band-aid-for-ptc-arbortext-sis/     This session is intended for Intermediate users of Arbortext.     View the Recording The video is on our YouTube Channel!       About The Arbortext Monster Garage There are a million Uber Geeky things you can do in Arbortext.
