I note that the Other Creo .... (I can't recall the exact title) content is a conglomeration of all the questions that used to pertain to manufacturing, simulation, automation, etc. To me this seems like too many unsimilar topics grouped under one heading. The questions that pertain to using the software, like manufacturing and simulation, are interspersed with esoteric programming questions, like how to use Jlink to customize a menu. I don't think there is much, if any, overlap between the two. Maybe a couple of subdivisions would be better, something like: Creo Administration and Customization and Creo Advanced Modules

I am trying to post a new product idea and vote for other ideas, but I cant't seem to do this. Any help would be appreciated. My account is in the "upgraded" state.Thanks for any assistance.

I usually have a tab open in my browser, displaying: http://communities.ptc.com/community/creo The heading of the screen is:  I get stuff coming up on my browser that pertains to Creo, right? In addition, I have something set, deep in the bowels of the 'Community', to send me an e-mail when things are added that might interest me.For example, I received an e-mail this afternoon, explaining that Paul Shepherdson had raised an Idea regarding Datum Planes. I was moved to investigate further, so I opened the aforementioned browser tab to look at it and maybe click to 'Like' it.No sign of it. If I change the browser tab so that it is displaying ...ptc.com/community (without the /creo), there is Paul's idea, in amongst all the stuff about Windchill, Arbortext, Mathcad, etc. that was the reason I didn't monitor the top level page in the first place. What's that about? If I am specifically monitoring for 'Creo' stuff, I reasonably assumed that I wou
