Re: Projected curves? What is the difference?
Hello @tom_auger
After taking a closer look at your document, it looks like one of the splines is not defined properly.
A projected curve is essentially the intersection of two surfaces. As a test, I extruded the sketches as surfaces to take a closer look at the intersection.
The spline passes in and out of the other profile. Causing the projection to fail.
Spline handle before. Spline handle after being vertically constrained.
Once the spline handle is defined with the vertical constraint, the projected curve is fixed. Hope this helps and good luck!

Re: Why Feature Script opExtrude REMOVE not working and making a NEW part?
More efficient to use opExtrude opBoolean
Re: Onshape and Raspberry Pi 4?
Hi Patrick.
Onshape can be used on Raspberry Pi 4 through the chromium web browser, as I tried that last year, when I purchased the 4GB RAM variant. It needs an operating system with hardware acceleration enabled, at that time Raspbian OS did not have that, but there are other distributions available. Performance wise, I was getting about 5/2.2 million triangles/lines, but the new version, with 8GB RAM memory, will not improve it, since it would need a more capable graphics chip.

Re: Rack and Pinion Relation
I would create a dummy part (that will be hidden by in your assembly)
that is shaped like a cam that only touches one of the fingers of the frame.
something like the blue shape, then make it tangent to the frame marked in red
The other finger on the top of the frame does not need to actually engage the wiper, just needs to "appear" to
Similar to this idea:

Made a custom feature that allows for this, I'm happy again! Thanks for this feature guys!sam_parsons said:Really pleased that you can apply appearances to faces now, but I'm a bit disheartened that you have to configure them in configured properties tables rather than in configurations, limits the freedom of the configuration quite a lot
Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 3rd, 2020
YES! Thank you sooo much for finally making it possible to color individual faces. This will allow me to (easily) make my CAD models look more realistic, AND allow me to no longer need so many individual parts and assemblies as the hack for when I absolutely needed different colors before. So excited. I feel like Onshape is now fully on-par with SolidWorks for my needs. Thanks!!
Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 3rd, 2020
This is an impressive update. Thank you!
We will be using these right away.

Thank you, I'll make use of that todayNeilCooke said:The label example was created just for you, Brucebrucebartlett said:Soooooooooo much more colorful Neil! You've made my day with this much overdue feature.
Re: Improvements to Onshape - June 3rd, 2020
Color Face! Stupendous, spectacular! Now, how do I make the 'appearances' panel go away after I've used it?
