    PTC login problem

    I have just purchased a new home computer and can not login into any ptc sites like ptc.com, precisionlms.ptc.com. If I try and login to the ptc.com site I enter my username and password and it says "PTC.com account not authenticated". When I try to login to the precisionlms.ptc.com site I enter...

    Zoom into small component

    I am working in a large assembly (component amounts and machine overall dimensional size). The problem I am having is trying to zoom into a small 1mm X 1mm X 5mm component placed inside the machine.

    Mapkey creation

    This is more of a request to PTC than a question but perhaps there is someone here that can be an influence to getting this done.

    Wildfire Config Problem

    I have recently started to work with Wildfire. I am having a problem getting a hidden config option that I used in Pro/E 2001 to work in Wildfire. I assemble all components by coords and I found it very helpful when I was working with large assemblies to use the select by menu option when...
