Re: Hanging dimensions
Those are diameters (note the diameter symbol, ⌀). Click the centerline, then the entity to be dimensioned, then move your mouse to the other side of the center line (in this case to the left).
Re: How to avoid weird contours in my model
can you share your document and link it here? hard to tell how to improve if we cannot review your current loft setup.
Its likely you'r using too many contours in the loft (less control provides better surfaces quality usually).
you probably need to model the surfaces at the nose/tip separately to model a proper transition to the sharp point.
Feature request: ability to share subfolders
I noticed only top-level folders can be shared for now, or individual documents. For more flexibility, it would be nice to also be able to share sub-folders individually. Thanks!

I have a Taig and it's good for hobby. If I were to get a new one today, I think I'd get this one. Shariff DMC:
He designed it with an enclosure which is really nice if its in your home shop.

Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
Heckuva update here OnShape! Sheet Metal Forms and drawing improvements will be the most beneficial here but the other improvements I see making this a much more capable package which is always a good thing. I've seen lots of makers on YouTube using OnShape as well which I hope you are seeing growth from as well. Keep up the good work!
Re: New Video Tutorial: Power User Selection Skills for Onshape
Nice video. Is there an improvement request for persistent or associative selections? I'd love it as well.
i did a quick search and haven't found one, but i can't imagine this fundamental topic hasn't come up yet, i just may have not used the right key-words.
I think the query creation feature is a good way of building it. it might require all other features (including custom ones) would need adjustments to their query filters.
Another option could be to expand the current 'create selection' dialogue, with a checkmark called 'persistent' or 'associative'. (and perhaps with other 'boolean' options as well, like in Evan's selection fillet feature)
