Hello everyone and welcome to blog post #6 in this multibody blog series.   I got asked recently : How can I display a user-defined body parameter in the model tree? If you are interested in that as well, here is how you do it. Let’s walk through an example step-by-step.   Step 1) Let’s assign a body parameter (and let’s call it for example “MY_BODY_PARAM”)   Step 2) Open the Model Tree Columns display dialog   Step 3) Select the Type: Body Params     Step 4) You might notice that the list shows system parameters related to bodies (e.g. PTC_ASSIGNED_MATERIAL), but not the newly added user-defined parameter  Step 5) Manually enter the user-defined-parameter (in our example “MY_BODY_PARAM”) into the Name field     and click the double-arrow to move it into the displayed columns     Step 6) Click “OK” and ensure model tree columns are displayed. Now you should be able to see your body parameters as part of the displayed model tree columns   q.e.d. 🙂  I hope that helped.   Back to Creo 7.0 Multibody Home: Start Here!   Enjoy!....Martin

Design engineers use computational fluid dynamics to create viable designs that hold up under real-world conditions. With CFD they can optimize products, reduce expensive physical testing, and troubleshoot systems digitally.

Hi folks, I have created for you: REPEATABLE MAPKEY GENERATOR  By default, the program generates the Repeatable Mapkey code from the list. The Repeatable Mapkey Generator uses the existing Mapkey "4k". The Mapkey "4k" is user-defined and is repeated on every object from the list. Please do not forget to set the Close window at the end of your user-defined Mapkey, because Creo is limited that only 15 active windows are allowed to use. How it works:

At LiveWorx this year, we announced a partnership with ANSYS and a new technology never before available for parametric modeling: Live Simulation!   Creo Simulation Live will provide real-time simulation from within your 3D CAD modeler as you work. If you didn't get to see the live demo on the LiveWorx show floor (it was pretty crowded at times), we've got your front row seat in this short video. Watch:     To keep up with announcements about Creo Simulation Live and other CAD and PTC Mathcad news, sign up for the PTC Express Newsletter.

The Creo Product Management team acknowledges the additive manufacturing industry has been quickly evolving and many of our customers are moving beyond prototyping and into final part production. Based on that, you may be aware that we have been working over the past releases of Creo to support this transition through robust additive manufacturing software. A lot of these efforts were made possible thanks to constant feedback from our users that helped drive our product. On that note, we’re currently seeking feedback specific to additive manufacturing in order to validate our assumptions and strengthen our pipeline for the next several releases. We would like to hear from you as we plan to build a better product and experience, please use the link below to answer the survey:   PTC Additive Manufacturing Survey.
