Re: Collaborating with someone on a free account
The only time you'll ever get the "someone else's view will close if I access it" is for 2 people accessing the same live drawing. They should absolutely be able to view everything else live as you're working on it. And Oliver is correct in terms of drawings: they can view a previous version while you're editing the live drawing (and if you send a link to the version it will bring the viewer straight there).
Re: Moving Parts in Assemblies
Have you 'fixed' one of the parts? Here is a sample of moving parts made for somebody else. The bracket is fixed in place and will not move. When you move the axle other parts will respond to the mates in order.
Re: Welcome to Onshape!
Perhaps a little more detail? Which guide videos? Which tutorials?
Re: Fixing a part in an angled hole
Here's a sample with suggestions regarding build sequence. Building parts in place can save time and add to consistency since sketch entities can be reused. You won't have to wait until assembly to see how things fit. Also I recommend cutting flats for for axle mounting so that axle and (presumably) nut or some other fastener will be wanted. Bracket as sheet metal. Note also that this style needs less discrete planes since Implicit mates are available from many points on existing objects for sketching.

UV texture mapping is where my mind went right away as well…
Re: How to modify a Configuration variable in a Configuration List
@Oliver_Couch Thank you very much, your document is view only but I think that I see what you mean.
I had already thought about using an intermediate variable as cache and a test over a "Custom" list item but I was hoping that it would be possible to do otherwise. The problem with variables is the loose of default and min/max. Erff.
