PTC Community Information Center

Some fairly short time after logging in, perusing the Community, deciding to work up a worksheet, I return to the board to find this (after a refresh):         Would it be possible to auto-login to the Community, as per the large majority of other boards that I use?   Stuart

I'm currently also trying to review all the published ideas (I'm on page 50 of 238). I also saw some of them that were repeated or could be merged, others already implemented, but I was not so methodic as @StephenW to take note of them and aid @olivierlp in the process. I'll try to do it going forward.

Please allow new ideas to be commented on for at least 4 years.  Post that are not even 6 months old are already being archived and not being considered for incorporation into PTC products.   who else is a little put off by PTC's new archiving rules?   Pro/e user since 1992

I understand PTC's motivation to reduce the clutter in the hopes of focusing on more value added activities, however I think it is unfortunate that we cannot reply, comment and make suggestions on the policy where it was posted (Read only), so will do so here.  I hope others will add their feedback here as well.  I sincerely hope this updated policy means that PTC has a renewed interest in implementing customer feedback...   It seems to me that the number of votes within a certain time period is an obvious place to start, however there are other factors I would really like to see addressed by PTC that may give it equal or greater importance. Idea activity Archiving policy should really account for commenting activity/discussions as well as the number of votes within a certain time period. For example, there may be lots of comments (and page hits) in the same year that it is decided to be archived, even though there may not be a lot of votes.  This activity should

What happened to the PA community board?  It is not listed in the MENU anymore.  The MENU has been updated recently.

I think the PA section is having some issues because, at least for me, it's not possible to subscribe to this forum so I haven't gotten any new emails in months.     Also, the message for the log4j problem is shown twice      

Hi,the PTC help pages and support articles are badly viewable under Firefox (low contrast).They are fine in Chrome.Any ideas on how to change this?  

Hi, PTC Community,   We had some PTC Community platform updates that the Community Team wants to make sure you are aware of:     1) PTC Community Terms of Service   You may have noticed a prompt to reagree to the PTC Community Terms of Service if you have logged in to even read this announcement 🙂      If you would like another look, you can always reread the PTC Community Terms of Service  here.   Note:  You might have noticed that there was also an opportunity to change your system-assigned community username  (i.e. xy_123456)  at the top of this TOS screen prompt.  No worries if you missed it, you can still change your username under "My Setttings". Learn more about changing usernames in the How to Change Temporary- System Assigned Username FAQ.   2) PTC Community Search    A post can now be created directly from the search query.  Try it out!

Hi,   Under the old forum when I went to the Simulate/Analysis part of the forum one would perty much only see Simulate FEA and Mechanism Analysis related posts. How in this new forum do we return only Simulate FEA related questions/Enhancement requests?   Thanks, Don Anderson Creo User since 1994+

It is not possible to create an idea with the label 'simulate'.

I posted several product ideas today under the 'label' STRUCTURE It is clear now that this is essentially the same as the 'label' SIMULATE I cannot add 'SIMULATE' as another label 'SIMULATE' as a 'tag' is not permitted Therefore these will likely be missed by those who look for 'SIMULATE' How do I add this label?

Hi, PTC Community, We just wanted to notify you that Community Log In will be unavailable on Saturday, November 20th from 7:00 AM ET to 11:00 AM ET due to maintenance.  You will still be able read content, but you won't be able to post new topics, reply, or kudo posts.   Have a great community day!   Best, Jaime Lee  

Every time I attempt to post a product idea I get ... correct the highlighted errors and try again.Post flooding detected (community received posts of a unique message more than 1 times within 3,600 seconds)

I have been getting email notifications (for years), but they have stopped in the beginning of December. I have not (intentionally) changed my settings and when I checked they seemed correct. I am using gmail if that matters. Any suggestions? 

Is there a way a for a regular member to schedule a post? e.g. Writing a post today for the PTCooler to be posted on Friday morning 8:00 am EDT?   Thanks, Dale

If you reply to a topic and the go up one level and refresh the screen  (i.e.  https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Parametric/ct-p/creoparametric) the reply show up as an unread reply (or new reply - green). If I am the one who posted it, why isn't it read already. I just left that page.   Thanks, Dale

Sometimes community moderators find it necessary to move or remove content during their efforts to keep the community organized and productive. Here are some frequently asked questions concerning content moves. What are the reasons my message might be moved? Most often messages are moved because they were posted in the wrong area of the community. For example, a Mathcad question posted on the Welcome & How-To's board would be moved the Mathcad discussion board where it would be more likely to get a response. On occasion, a message has to be moved or edited because it violates our Terms of Service or Community Guidelines. Outdated information may be removed and archived. Rarely, a large number of posts are moved due to a restructuring of the community. For example two related boards might be merged. Will I be able to find a topic I was following if it is moved?  Yes. If you are subscribed to a conversation, your subscription will remain, and links to the conversation will still work
