Mathcad14 / Windows10 and DLLs

$
0
0

Hi all, I've installed Mathcad14 on Windows10. Mathcad seems to run fine but I cannot run DLLs any more(not even the example DLLs in the userfi executable folders). Anyone has any expertise nice with running and compiling Mathcad14 DLLs in a Windows10 environment.

 

I've also tried to complile some DLLs the same way that did in a WindowsXP (using studio 2010 express) environment but I was not successful (compliles ok but Mathcad cannot access/read the DLL).

 

Any help is appreciate. Geo


Are constraints which are based on FVA values computed correctly when creating a related item?

$
0
0

We are getting a constraint related error when trying to create a related item through a trigger. The trigger completes correctly but the changes are ultimately rolled back due to an error preventing a certain value. The value on the new item is based on an FVA which points back to the first item. The only explanation I can see so far is that the constraint is not correctly reading this FVA's new value. So I just want to ask if anyone can confirm whether constraints act strangely when interacting with FVA's and there's nothing to do about that.

How are new revisions of parts/assemblies created?

How are new revisions of parts/assemblies created (Version vs. increment)?  The online "PTC WindChill Help Center" indicates there should be a "Revise" option but I don't see it.

 

I've attached screen shots of the CommonSpace and WorkSpace views.

Bulk Item Balloon - Possible to have different quantity on bottom of split?

I'm looking to use PARAMETRIC balloons for all the Bulk Items.  We use Split Balloons for all our drawings.  In the past we would create a FAKE balloon, with the format 9/AR (for something like Adhesive).  If you use Parametric, we would get 9/1 (Find Number/QTY).  Is there a way to change the bottom QTY number?

Why this mapkey doesn't work the first time

Hi,

 

I make a mapkey to to "edit position" (in mouse popup menu) on assembly component (see below this message).

 

This mapkey never work until I make manualy a first time a right clik and edit definition.

 

Do you know how to correct this problem?

 

PS: I have the same problem with "select parent" in mouse popup menu.

 

Mapkey:

mapkey DCONeditdef ~ Timer `UI Desktop` `UI Desktop` `popupMenuRMBTimerCB`;\

mapkey(continued) ~ Close `rmb_popup` `PopupMenu`;~ Activate `rmb_popup` `Redefine`;

 

Config:

Thanks for your reply.

Model to Help 5th Graders Understand PTC Coordinate System

I've made the following model with which I hope to explain the PTC coordinate system to 5th Graders.  I've succeeded only in confusing myself.  Maybe you can help.

 

CoordinateModel.png

The file is attached.  Created with Creo Parametric 3.0 M070 Academic.  I think this a right hand system as pictured,  I've extruded X+, X-. Y+, Y-, Z+ and Z-.  I want to extrude (20mm) FRONT+, FRONT-, TOP+, TOP-, RIGHT+ and RIGHT_ on the planes  I presume that FRONT+ is on the Y+ side of the FRONT plane.  Am I on the right track?

 

It seems to me that the default system in Creo Academic is a left handed system!!!

Limitations of the symbolic derivatives in Prime

I would like to point out that in Prime, in calculating symbolic derivatives, the order of derivation can not be written as the sum of two integers but with an index that represents the sum of them, and this, however,  is not written properly, in fact:

Is anyone using Mathcad (the server based version) for High school math education? The district is getting a Chromebook for all students Math classes through advanced placement in linear algebra, calculus, trig, algebra etc.

I have been using Mathcad since well before PTC acquired Mathcad.  I have been watching the evolution of PTC – in particular the Education program.

My son-in-law is a Math teacher in the Lincoln Public Schools.  Next year they are providing their students a Chromebooks computer.

 

He is frustrated with the math curriculum and has seen a bit of Mathcad – what I’ve shown him from my use of Mathcad. 

 

Is anyone using Mathcad (the server based version) for High school math education?  He teaches the range from remedial to advanced placement calculus, linear algebra.

I've gone over a lot of Youtube videos and created my own videos for using aspects of Mathcad - the various function, symbolic, plotting, data importing and exporting, etc.

My material targeted at Electrical engineering students - teaching use of Mathcad not mathematics.

Hi,

I would like to add some custom AutoPilot processes to an implementation.  Processes the users can execute.

Is there a way to get execute a custom AutoPilot process in SPM/SPP 11.2? If so, do you have an example you can share of how to configure the system?

Script to build trail file based on list of files?

$

Wondering if anyone has a batch file that will work with a trail file segment and a list of files to build a long trail file.

 

I have the following files:

Trail-1.txt

Trail-2.txt

File-list.txt

 

In the new file I want:

 

  1. Trail-1.txt
  2. Trail-2.txt with the word FAMILY-INSTANCE replace with the first line of file-list.txt
  3. Trail-2.txt with the word FAMILY-INSTANCE replace with the second line of file-list.txt
  4. Trail-2.txt with the word FAMILY-INSTANCE replace with the third line of file-list.txt
  5. Etc… until you get to the last line of file-list.txt 

     

  

Essentially a for each command with text replacement and append the new file with the modified trail-2.txt each time.

Combined states - in drawings - question for Creo 3.0 users

$
0
0

Does anyone use this "functionality", or do you find it of limited use, and have the config.pro option drw_prompt_for_combined_state set to NO ?

One thing that would be nice is if the layer information from the 3D model would be used to set up the layer state of the drawing view.  Reading the online help for Creo 3.0 it would seem to be the case.

 

However, I'm on Creo 2.0, and today I defined a combined state of an assembly (in it, a layer state is used in which a bunch of components are on a hidden layer).

I then started a new drawing.  On the first sheet, I used the "No Combined State" to put a drawing view of the assembly with all its components.

On the second sheet, I put a drawing view and when prompted, selected the combined state that I just created in the assembly.

I thought all was hunky-dory - it looked just like what I wanted - a view of the assembly with some of the components not shown.

But to my dismay, I saw that the components also disappeared from the drawing view on the first sheet of my drawing.

 

Does this work in the same manner in Creo 3.0?

Swept Blend: How to Map Vertices across Sections

$
0
0

When creating a Swept Blend (Surface), how does one control the mapping of vertices from one Section to another Section?

 

A simple example:

1. Sketch a five-sided, diamond-shaped sketch (like a home plate in baseball).

2. Sketch another, larger five-sided, diamond-shaped sketch on a parallel sketch plane some offset distance from the first.

3. Now use Swept Blend to create a five-sided surface from one diamond to the other.

 

Ideally, the vertex at the "point" of the first diamond should map to the vertex at the "point" of the second diamond.

 

But what if the vertices at the corresponding "points" of the two diamonds do NOT map to each other? How can the user FORCE the vertices at the "points" to map to each other?

 

Note: In competing CAD software, I have seen dialog boxes which allow the user to manually map "Point A" in one Section to the desired "Point A" in the other Section. But I don't see such a thing in Creo.

 

Any solutions?

 

TIA.

Creo 2.0 Parametric Running Slow

Im a student who is using creo 2.0, I've used it on the school computers without problems just a little slow when doing complicated things, I have it installed on my desktop [windows 8] and have no problems but I have just come to install it on my new laptop and it is running really really slow. When i go to highlight the model or sketch + anything apart from looking through the menus its very slow and almost crashes. My laptop has a Nvidia GTX 960m, i7 processor, ssd, 16gb of ram on windows 10, and should run it without a problem. I have made sure my graphics card is being used rather than the integrated one but no luck, I have also got all the latest graphics drivers. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions.
