Re: Is it possible to determine in which direction an angle is measured?
If they are always on the 3D XY plane, then it's simple - you can just use atan2 to measure the angle between each line and vector [1,0]. A minus value indicates obtuse. If they're in 3D space it would be a little more involved.
Re: Adding OnShape Certificates to LinkedIn Profiles
@jack_heslin there is nothing official today, other than just downloading the certificate from the Learning Center and uploading it to LinkedIn.
Re: I have a full (pro) account. Can I view my own document with the View-Only Toolbar?
Yes you can! Make the document viewable with a view-only link and then copy/paste that link into a private/incognito browser window.
Re: How to project a face onto a surface?
@neobobkrause If you choose the sketch instead of the face it seems to work, unless I am missing something in your request. I made a copy here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/f52aa59f46d278b6f51909e6/w/f5c42223fa68b6e2cb731b35/e/3dd0ca5c7f793b8cd594cb56

Re: Onshape is disconnected - refresh page
It's likely your modem.
We went through this here at work for a while. We had no issues for 2 years, then Comcast gave us a new modem after our old one died, and from then on we were constantly getting disconnected throughout the day (10-20 times a day). We also started having the same issue with another cloud service we use, and we found other people online with similar problems with the same model of modem.
After a lot of back and forth arguments and threats with Comcast as well as network tests on our end, we finally convinced them to come out and install a different brand modem. Since this new modem has been installed, we haven't had any more issues.
The modem we were using that had the issues was a Cisco DPC3941B modem from Comcast/Xfinity Business. The new modem that's working fine is a Netgear CG3000DCR modem.
Hope that helps, or at least gives you a place to start looking.
[EDIT] added the modem model numbers.
