Re: How to set a tolerance range for calculations in Part Studio?
In FeatureScript there is a lot of support for "TolerantEquals" of dimensions or geometric objects.

PDF Display in OS
I wish PDFs imported into an OS document would display right in the tab without having to download them. Reason: It works well to keep datasheets, pinouts and the like of supplier parts with the CAD model, so whoever (re-)uses these components or contributes to the design work, is immediately in the know of the details. That's also true for doing live presentations with the CAD model in OS. It doesn't appear overly difficult, since most browsers support displaying PDFs anyway. Is there a reason it is not yet available?
Re: Replacing drawing reference through the API
Yes I have. That should have been obvious. The official api docs give a large list of parameters that mostly are irrelevant.

Hrmm, shouldn't be needed. Didn't dig, though. @jnewth

Re: How to "reapply" a Text Expression with a Linear Transform
Thanks for the flag @_anton I'll take a look. Something funny.

Re: Pattern of sketches containing text with increasing values
This is a known bug. I forked the Text Path custom feature and hacked in a "fix" which seems to work. You can find the discussion here.
Edit:
Actually looks like it's fixed in the next release of Text Path version R3.2

Re: Why is my assembly overdefined?
It is hard to tell without the document, but changing the last revolute mate to a cylindrical mate will probably work.
