High School Curriculum

New to teaching PTC/Creo at the High School level.  I have found plenty of tutorials and projects, but I'm trying to put the whole thing into a logical, sequential approach to enable students who don't have a clue what CAD is to be able to start from scratch and after 3-4 months be able to get around on the software and be productive, while at the same time ENJOYING the process.  Anyone currently running a High School program that would be willing to pass alone an outline of curriculum?   Much appreciated.

Pro/E & IPV6

$

Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I don't see any admin or licensing forums here...

 

Our IT department is transitioning to IPV6, mostly to enable the use of Microsoft's Direct Access (replacing our legacy VPN software). The lone problem we have with this transition so far is Pro/ENGINEER (and Pro/INTRALINK) - the FlexNet licensing is not working with the new protocol. Our IT guy is trying to get some assistance from PTC support but not having much luck. If anyone has been through this transition before, any advice would be appreciated!

Part Regenerates then Waits for Several Minutes

$

Hello,

I have a part that takes an age to regenerate.

That is not strictly true, the 'Regeneration Complete' dialogue box comes after a couple of seconds, but Pro/E remains extremely busy for about 5 minutes, before the 'Regeneration Complete' box disappears.

Task Manager reports CPU usage of over 50% i.e. one of the two cores is basically completely committed. It also reports that it is, indeed, Pro/E that is using all that processing.

I have looked at the trail file and it gets to '!ProgressBarDlg: Regen Completed' and shows nothing further.

 

How can I find out which feature is causing this problem? Is it just a case of moving the 'insert here' thing up and regenerating until the problem goes away, or is there a slick way?

Thanks,

I only saw ProColormapAlternateschemeSet() but I can't set every color I would like.

 

Thank you very much

We would like to use table in a drawing like in Excel, we mean to fill a cell using the address (=Table1!Cell 2) of an another cell .... 

 

and the fact to change the value in the first table, cell in other table is updated.

 

It will be interesting in the drawing (for the frame), not necessary to use parameters...

 

thanks.

Creo 2 Parametric - Auto regen

$
0
0

When I change a feature dimension in Creo 2 (select feature, RMB and select edit) Creo pauses, regenerates the model and updates the screen.  Kinda neat except the model isn't really regenerated, it only looks like it is.  Once I'm done I need to regen it again (or if I hit the magic left mouse click, sometimes it regens itself.  Soemtimes not, but that's another discussion.)  If the change is significant that means staring at my screen for a long time twice to wait for Creo do regen the same change.  And if I need to change 2 dimensions, that means 3-4 regens, 3 dims = 4- regens, etc.

 

While it's nice to see the change previewed, I'd like to turn it off since it's only a preview and not a real regen adn simply wastes time.  What's the config option to do that?

(Windchill/ProE) Family Table swapping generic that is being used in upper level assemblies

$

Someone has created a family table of an existing assembly without having a generic that's not used anywhere like it should be. For instance the G1 is the generic, being used on upper level assemblies and the instances are G2, G3 and so on... I know there's a way to fix this and create a generic that's not used and G1, G2 and so on become the instances. I have had someone show me how to do this before by going offline and refetching the files to link them up at the end, just can't remember the procedure. Thanks for the help. Paul

MDX Linked Chain Model

$

All, I've put together a linked chain model (like a bicycle chain) and have put in all the individual links with connections (slots and pins) but I've got 2 problems;

  1. Regen time; if I add a planar constraint to each link (which would be redundant) will this help or hurt? Othe suggestions or techniques for modeling this? I need to be able to animate this in the end for a video (and the chain has cleats and other special links on it)
  2. How do I add a motor to this? What I really need is to be able to apply linear velocity along the guide curve (chain centerline)

Thanks

Hi,

 

Need answer from someone who using  schematics driven piping. It is not problem for me do it from start, but I can not understand how to update 3D piping from xml. I mean P&ID changed, new export to xml, and newly exportded xml import (reload) to update existing 3D piping (3D is done with older xml).

it is posible? what i can update from new xml?

can i update pipeline size? pipe segment size? fitting size? replace fitting?

will piping system find that some fittings was removed or changed sequence of fittings?

there is tutorials somwhere about this? (video or pdf is not important for me)

 

thanks for reading and huge thanks for right answer.
