Transfer ownership to free users for private backup
I do consulting work, so I need to transfer document ownership to the client at the end of a project.
Normally I would send copies of the files to the client even if they don't use CAD themselves.
In this way they can share the files with future technical folk if needed to make use of the files.
In OnShape, I can to transfer ownership to free users but it makes documents public.
Many clients would not be comfortable with this arrangement.
There doesn't seem to be a workaround via local backup / restore either.
Is there someway to handle this use case?
Ideally there would be an option to transfer as private but read only for free users.
Re: I think rigid is the way to go...
Check out Simplify FS. It has a pdf sheet with instructions which will produce a rigid part that can be used as one BOM item.

Importing an Image.
I've looked at other posts, I couldn't find anything helpful for me.
Im trying to import a photo and can't, I made a sketch, pressed import image, but the actual file import isn't there.
Can I get some help?
Thanks.

Re: Issue with profile generator v46 - missing point in the leading edge make loft guide fails
That immediately came to my mind when I read your post and looked at your model...

Re: Issue with profile generator v46 - missing point in the leading edge make loft guide fails
I worked on the document - so it is crappy now.
I have found a solution which is to create a 3D spline on the new leading edge. Do problem resolved.
Re: One method to wrap a pattern around a irregular shaped object
I took a closer look and implemented the idea with other features. This allowed me to reduce the regeneration time from about 38 seconds to 12 seconds. The result is very similar. The advantages are the performance and the lack of a gap at the wrap seam. Have a look.

Re: Creating logarithmic spirals using a conic and a helix. Need some math help!
Hi Robert. You can set upper and lower bounds for the angle of t
Here's an example - I'm using Radians so t is bounded between -pi and pi (2 pi radians in a single rotation)
The document is here: Single rotation parametric curve

Re: center text in a sketch
The construction lines in the text box are the left, right and center of the text.
