Existe algum documento que descreva o que é perdido ao mudar do Creo Parametric para o Siemens NX? Um cliente de 20 anos deseja mudar, e precisamos de argumentos para neutralizar essa mudança. Alguém poderia me ajudar com um documento oficial da PTC ou algum comentário que possa ser usado em defesa?

Issue is that with each Creo+ update, the "Start in" setting is reset to the default.

Hello, We recently changed the network in our organisation. The server holding licences for creo didn't change, it just change network. Although the server is up and we can ping it, people can't access their licenses. Here is the creo error message and the result of ptcstatus.bat on the user side.And here is the result of ptcstatus.bat on the server side :

I am in the process of creating new Creo Parametric start parts and have a question. When these parts are used, when creating a new part, the New  File Options dialog displays some parameters, but doesn't include all the parameters in the start part.    What I am trying to figure out is how to determine which parameters are displayed and which ones are not. In the attachment, only about 25% of the total parameters are being displayed. My goal is to limit which parameters are shown and what order they are displayed in.    I am using Creo Parametric 8.0.1.0    

I received an email with the two license files attached but I am not sure why.  Is it an update?  I can't find PTCUPDATE.BAT on the server to install it.  I don't even know if it is necessary.

Creo+ 11.0.0.0-008 Changing the start in directory of the shortcut for Creo+ is not working. I am modifying the start in directory of the shortcut created on the desktop when installed. The desired path is visible in the shortcut properties but Creo+ is not starting in this directory when launched from the shortcut.    

Is there a way to set a specific call out a specific UI file in a psf? I am encountering an issue where users click on the Live Simulation tab and it pulls a license for that feature. We have a limited number of them.  The psf is set up to not pull the license initially but that does not prevent the license being pulled in session after clicking on the tab. IMO Creo should not allow that license to be pull just because someone clicks on a tab but it does. I dont really want to turn off the tab on the ribbon as its annoying to have to go in and turn it back on when some actually wants to use it. Is there a way I can call out a specific ui file when starting creo either through the psf or other means?

Hi All,   Has anyone had any success with the Modecheck DRW_TABLE_CELLS?   I have an issue where I need to use tables in my default format so that parameters in there will update correctly in the drawing, But this leaves them open to "tinkering" by the end user.    I'm trying to use this check to identify the metadata table then verify some of the key cell values in there have not been overwritten (i.e.  &PTC_WM_LIFECYCLE_STATE hasn't been replaced with "RELEASED", OR THE :d AND :mdl getting mixed up has been an issue)   So far I've been able to get errors on every table that does not conform to the conditions, rather than the 1st value being an identifier,   Thanks in advance for any thoughts or past experience shared 🙂   Dave.

We only have 1 license for Simulation Live. It only gets used sporadically among various users. Most people need access to it. When creo starts the license is not pulled but if anyone clicks on the Live Simulation tab, usually accidently, the license gets pulled and prevents others from being able to use it.  I dont necessarily want to remove the tab from everyone's ribbon and have them load it manually when needed but that seems like my only option to prevent the license to be inadvertently used. Are there any other options out there? Seems like a pretty annoying flaw in the license design. 

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.5.0When I start a mold analysis (mold flow), Creo merges my default template solid part with the part I'm analyzing. My default template has solid geometry in it so I get a merge between the part I want to analyze and my default template part. Even if I delete the template part, the analysis still includes it. It is using the file set by the config.pro option: template_solidpart. Creo 6 did not exhibit this behavior.Here are the errors that I facedThis shows up in the message window when I click on the "analysis" optionUsing the template default \\prod\root\Other_Drives\CAD-Ilox\Intralox_Molds\standard_components\startup_models\startup_mold_part.PRT as the template.

I was wondering if anyone here has a powershell script that I can use to deploy CREO 9 through Configuration Manager. I can create a custom script to install but I would like to know what is needed to add the license and everything fully automated, perhaps an XML file that instructs the software.

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.4.0In Creo 7.0 I was able to list the PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL parameter as column inside the model tree.In Creo 10.0 the PTC_REPORTD_MATERIAL is not shown anymore. Instead there is always List (in German Liste) displayed. Is there a way to display the active material of the model inside the model tree again?Here are the errors that I facedno error or warnin - the parameter PTC_REPORTED_MATERIAL is not displayed as expected.

I am moving my files from one computer to the other.  I copied the files from a computer using Creo Parametric 10 to a computer using Creo Parametric 9.  I am unable to open any of the files, even though the association with Creo seems to be valid.  The files show up as .prt or .asm, as they should and they have the proper icon.  But I can open any of them, even simple beam element .prt files.   So I'm assuming that there's a reason copied files don't work this way.  Is there something different in the setups between the two machines that I should take a look at? p.s. I'm assuming this question belongs in System Administration, but I'm not sure.

Hello CAD admins, you probably also provide your users with a company-config.pro with standard mapkeys in the text directory of the Creo installation.In our case it happens again and again that users create their own mapkeys (which is legitimate), but when saving them they manage to write out the complete company-config.pro into the local one in the home or start directory.Since the local mapkeys have the sovereignty, the users do not get changes to the mapkeys in the company-config.pro anymore.As far as I know, the default mapkeys can't be packed into a config.sup either, because then the users can't create their own mapkeys anymore.How do you deal with the problem of overwritten default mapkeys?   Regards, Domenic

Hello, I am trying to create a map key that will auto create the new "enclosure volume" feature then take its x,y,z dimensions and add them to a parameter in my bill of materials. My biggest issue is the enclosure volumes parameters have an "internal feature ID" attached to them and is unique between components if I want to reuse this map key which then causes failures in the relations for PTC_BBOX_X:FID_(should have an ID number instead of stars.) I tried to incorperate copy and pasting the the feature ID from the feature information but that part of the map key doesnt work as it only pastes what was copied when map key was made. I also tried inserting the bounding box parameters in the map key and that failed as well because it cant find the parameters agian because of the internal feature ID. Here are my current Parameters:FINISH_SIZE stringXR real numberYR real numberZR real numberX stringY stringZ string Here are my relations:XR=CEIL(PTC_BBOX_X:FID_****,3)YR=CEIL(PT

I found the config option for naming a sheet metal flat pattern representation and wondering if there is one that will automatically name a flat pattern instance to some other default name.  We would like the flat pattern name to be <part number>-600 like we are doing for the rep. Creo 8.0.0.0 Thanks...

When using edit definition to re-define the features creo does not crash.How is this possible?What can be the root cause?Here are the errors that I facedFatal error encountered.

Hello,   we have been working with windchill for about a month now. I have an important question about this. Do I have the possibility to configure additional columns in the conflict window with further windchill parameters such as the name or the release status? We find it extremely annoying that only a meaningless number of the 3D model is displayed. With assemblies of 100-200 parts, of course, you don't have all the numbers in your head and have to cancel the action first and look for the numbers in the model tree so that you know which part it is and whether you can change it or whether it has already been released. I would be very grateful for any tips.     Creo 7.0 + Windchill  12.0.2.13
