PTC Education

FTC Team 7013 - Say hello to "SCORPION". Our robot was modeled, animated and rendered in PTC for this video and finally spliced together in a video editor. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks PTC for sponsoring our team this year. We learnt a lot and used PTC to do a static analysis on how the robot would hang on the bar, design our four bar linkages and also make sure that the different elements fit into the overall assembly.   (view in My Videos)

IIs there any way to tell which version of Windchill I am using. I am a member of a RWDC Team.

Hi,I'm posting this as an FYI to others incase they are having similar issues to the one we had in our office.Our office is new to Creo, we were running Inventor and ACAD, but we are moving to CREO after an aquisition. We were playing with the trial Creo 2.0 and the "Learning Connector", but it would not open for us. It did not work on 2 machines in the office that were on W7(64) with EI11. The error both machines got the following error:Script ErrorLine: 2156Char: 75Error: Object doesn't support property or method 'CompareDocumentPosition"Code: 0URL:https://precisionlms.ptc.com/web/apps/learningconnector/creo/1.0/creoconnector/2C867993.....The third machine in the office was on EI10 and it worked. After rolling back to EI10 on the other two machines, the connector openned up in its window and seems to work now. To roll back just go to programs and unistall the update to 11, 10 will then be your new browser. I was not able to find help on this so I will post this incase others are sear

Our group is unfortunately limited by the fact that most of us are using iPads, however one person, (our coach), has a MacBook Air and we don't know how to collaborate through the windchill web meetings, does anyone know how he might host, or we join once he successfully does host?

Is it possible to attend meetings on an iPad using windchill? And if possible, directions are welcome:)

Is it possible to host a meeting of any form(traditional or web-based) on an iPad? If so, how? And what software if any is needed?

Would it be possible to join a meeting in session, with an iPad device?

Is there a certain amount of students or persons allowed to be present within a windchill meeting?

I have no problem with 2d but 3d do not show up. I have looked on the internet and some have suggested that I uncheck borders. I have tried everything I can think of. One person said to lower the resolution to 16 bit color, but I can't seem to do that on my system. I run 64 bit windows 8.1.ThanksLarry-

Happy Ester to everyone,I have a major problem. When i start drawing anything, my screen just stays white. (Not just while drawing, all the time) I can click on the symbols that are used to be on the screen. So it’s just the screen who doesn’t updates or whatever. I tried to reinstall the program but still the same mistake.Can anyone help me? Any ideas? I added one pic of the screen.Would be greatGreetings Friedrich

is there anyone who tell me about linking C program in creo it shows massage error in linking or compiling

I started by downloading creo 2.0 student edition through the download manager as instructed, it downloaded with a blank page icon rather than zipped folder, and didnt show up in my documents. so i deleted it and retried downloading it though the HTTP link, wich produced a 3.32 GB zipped file and when you try to extract it says the folder is empty? anyone know what might be going on, and how i can solve it!

I am trying to dowmload the student version creo 2.0 but due to internet breakdown and load shedding it always ends up with a network error. Is there any other ay to downlaod the software? perhaps updating a torrent link to the website?

As you know, Creo is only supported on Windows. If you've got a Mac, here's a tip from one of my favorite sites on how to setup Windows on a Mac with Boot Camp. http://www.howtogeek.com/186907/how-to-install-windows-on-a-mac-with-boot-camp/

A great video of Caterpillar machines (designed using PTC Creo) playing man size Jenga!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWc8dUl7Xfo

I have been noticing that more and more students do not have computers or laptops that are fully certified by PTC. In many cases, the graphics card is not sufficient for running Creo when the computer itself is. In this combination, the students will typicall see weird graphics in Creo like ghosted dialog boxes, black backgrounds, mix of shaded and wireframe model display and others. Don't worry though, there is a way to cure this!Tools, Options, GRAPHICS = WIN32_GDIWhen opening the Option panel, change the current config.pro file from the installation folder to "Current Session" and then use the panels at the botton of the window to add graphics and set the value to win32_gdi. Once added, use the Save As icon at the top of the window to save this new file as config.pro in your "My Documents" folder. If the file is named config.pro and located in your "My Documents" folder, Creo will always read the settings in this file and you should be off to a much more enjoyable Creo experience.

I am trying to transfer a single-user Mathcad 15 license from one laptop to another. I tried invain to use the Reconfigure Tool. What does it mean when the reconfigure tool asks the MAC addres for the source server? This should mean my old machine, but I am thrown off by the word "server". In any case, when I put my old machine's MAC address, the reconfigure tool returns 0 CPUs found! What flagrant mistake am I making?

Hi,i am running Creo 2.0 on a Macbook Pro using Windows 7 and Parallels.I used Pro Engineer before with the same configuration and it worked fine...But with Creo 2.0 I have a problem:It seems that every model i am viewing and the whole vieport is inverted. That means that all labels of coordinate systems and axes are inverted. I will make a screen shoot so maybe you can see what I mean:As you can see the toolbar and everything else is normal, but the view port is inverted and also the position of the mouse, wich makes it hard to work with it...

Does anyone have a the manikin library I could download? Working on a project and need to have different manikin doing various tasks. Thank you.

All technology has benefits and limitations.  3D printing is relatively new in schools so educators should be aware of the unexpected.Warning - If you have a nervous disposition you may want to skip following the link below.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69SsHvZ5Vsk

I'll be at this year's championship with FRC Team 1671 and Team 5134.Anybody else from the community going? Scott, Sheila, Shannon?
