PTC Community Feedback

On (2) recent topics I used the translation button on the top right of the page. The first time, the title and the contents were translated.   On the post below, only the title was translated not the body of the post.    

The New community site has way too many bugs.  When you click on a topic it takes to you a blank page to fill in a message.Remove the 80 Character Barrier for String Parameters And the formatting of the screen is awful.   Everything is way too small and too disorganized.  The UI is not at all user friendly. Worst upgrade I have EVER seen.

No, this new look is more modern, but a terrible waste of real-estate. Please make sure that each topic consumes less space on the screen.   And why can't I paste a picture? And how do I get the body of a topic showing?   The attachment shows what I get to asee about this topic.     Luc

We are aware of an issue some users are having posting some attachments. We expect a solution soon but, in the meantime, posting attachments as .zip files appears to be an effective workaround. I will post updates here as we receive them. Thanks for your patience!

I'm unsure if the Mathcad or Community Feedback board is the better place for this request.   I noticed @DJNewman has raised a subscript/superscript button request for the Communities (thanks, Dave 👍).  That got me thinking about a more Mathcad-specific requirement that *should* be easier to implement than MathML/Mathjax/Mathwhatever ...   Could PTC please add Mathcad Unimath Prime to the Community's available fonts?   Although there are several Roman fonts under the Font dropdown, Unimath is designed explicitly for Mathcad and the appearance of Mathcad Math expressions could be more faithfully rendered by having this font available.   Stuart   https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Community-Feedback/Request-for-Subscript-Superscript-Text-Formatting-Buttons/m-p/978091

Would it be possible to add the little eye ball (i.e. show what you have typed) behind the password portion of the login to the community. So many times I fat finger the keyboard (or have my cap locks on - Creo Habit), but you cannot click on the "show me what I have typed" icon before hitting the enter key.

When you are on a page with a new post and the page automatically brings the post up to the bottom of the thread, could there also be a translation icon at the bottom of the page (for translating the whole post) from the bottom.      

Also add a subcategory. For instance has Cero many stuff that is separated.I am using very often help regarding MACHINING/Manufactung.Now I use the Filters, but still.. much Stuff I do not need is showed there.. because I can not filter for only machining/manufacturing.So a category with all those sub-categories that are in the "Help" already could also applied here.Look here: It is all under Creo right now.. And then there would be still many subcategories..BUT if you use less than 6 phrases, it really uses an AND concatenation.if you put it into: >"this would" machining< it is looking for the exact phrase AND machining in one thread.

We are aware of a bug which prevents attaching PRT files to community posts. We are waiting for a fix from the community platform vendor.   In the meantime, you can use a ZIP file to attach PRT files. We will post any updates here.

Would it be possible to add another header/filter underneath the group sub-heading? Sometimes posts are moved from one category to another and may get buried in the transition if they are 5+ days old.      

https://community.ptc.com/t5/3D-Part-Assembly-Design/Explode-Line-Issue/m-p/390043#M6732 THIS ACCEPTED SOLUTION IS JUST A LINK TO A POLL TO GET PTC TO PAY ATTENTION IT WAS NEARLY 10 YEARS AGO ADD A DROP DOWN FOR LABELS IF THEY HAVE TO BE SPECIFIC THIS WEBSITE BREEDS FRUSTRATION

The email asks if I would like to not receive emails from PTC Community to "click here" This website is representative of the help one would expect to receive Tired of trying to find the correct place to post this and I know the mods care more about looking like they are doing a good job over actually providing any sort of real solution.  That being said I expect it to be deleted.  Spent 45 minutes trying to find where to post and the frustration won, ptc won. They have received the payment and will not be taking any calls.  

We should have subscript / superscript text formatting buttons for Community posts that add <sub></sub> / <sup></sup> tags, respectively, to a selected piece of text. This would work similarly to existing shortcut buttons like Bold and Italics. It would probably be part of the extended toolbar.   This would be particularly useful on the Mathcad board.

When entering a search on the forum, you can add various filters.   When you chose "author", there is a drop down arrow. Could you make the author of the search for the post (myself) automatically the first drop down for this category? Sometime when trying to help others, I remember either a comment I made on someone else's post or a question I posted some time ago.

Test of upload of zip file containing exe file (for Vivek N - Community Moderator)   Yesterday I met the problem in https://community.ptc.com/t5/System-Administration/Mapkey-entry-forced-matching-and-timeout-reading-entered-mapkeys/m-p/975915#M31394 discussion.   Hi @vnamboodheri  I dragged&dropped mapkey_show_and_run_2024-10-07.zip to below displayed area. Contents of mapkey_show_and_run_2024-10-07.zip I clicked Post button. Following error message was displayed. I removed attachment and clicked Post button again >>> Success.

It looks like there is currently no method to like someone's comment in the product idea category.  Can we please have this back, or let me know how to do it?   E.g. under the following product idea, I cannot like / Kudo any of the comments to show that I agree without having to comment to each one. https://community.ptc.com/t5/Creo-Ideas/Improve-Relations-Editor/idi-p/457970  

When orchestrating a search within the Community and filtering by author is desired, would it be possible to make the individual searcher the first thing in the drop down unless you start typing in the keyword box? Frequently I am searching for something I have posted in the past and cannot remember what the solution was and I am trying to find the post that I had originally created.      

I started a new post in the PTC Community Feedback, but when I went to submit, it asked me to select a location. I expanded the PTC Community Information Center and there was able to pick PTC Community Feedback. Not sure why since I started there in the first place.      

I recently did a search on "Color ObJ". There were some good results, Not sure why some of the post are archived (unless it was from different forum structure and wasn't ported over to the new structure). But if it is archived, should there be a color change or other identifier that the post has been archived?   This post had been archived.   Thanks, Dale  

It looks like you are just responding with standard messages to threads that aren't marked as solved. This gives a very unprofessional impression, especially in this case where: • the question of the original poster is pretty clear as it was previously rated by you as 'well documented'.• the question is obviously not answered, and should actually be answered by a PTC employee, maybe a sales rep. Instead of that, you could have found a colleague, that can actually answer this question.   Success!Luc

Hello,I have used Creo and WCH ideas RSS but now seems to stop working. Am I correct?How to "subscribe" a list of new ideas only?Subscription of whole category gives me all posts/replies and I don't want them. If turn this off won't be notified for my own posts/replies so looks as not a proper solution to me.

Just perused the "How To's" to find out how to attached a file to your post. I know I've seen it in CAD area, but I thought I'd find it in the "How To's". Did I miss it?

Has Creo+ been added to the dictionary? Every time I type it, I get a red squiggly line.
