Re: DISAPPEARED DRAWINGS ON DOCUMENTS
You don't need to make copies of files or delete documents when things go wrong in Onshape! You document isn't "ruined", you just have to go back in the history to when you were last happy with it and "restore" that to keep going.

Re: Render Battle #6 - Coffee time ☕(Winner gets a real Prize!)
Someone I just met this year named Grok Musk the 3rd voted #6 (I hate Mondays) (sorry I didn't upload them in the correct order)
Wonder what Gemini and Copilot or Deepseek vote for.
Here is the text from Sabastian's query in case anyone wants to try it.
There is another round of an Render Battle in the Onshape Forum:
How it works:
Whoever creates the most legit render using this Coffee Mug
will win the battle!
The winner will also be added to the Render Battle "Hall of
Fame" list for all future battles.
Rules:
- Render must fall into the specified topic.
- You may use the provided pre-modeled studio or your own.
Feel free to model any additions to make your renders stand out! - Use Render studio or reality server for rendering.

You have to vote for the image you like the most!

Re: Render Battle #6 - Coffee time ☕(Winner gets a real Prize!)
I asked my buddy ChatGPT 4.5 and he voted for #1:
I vote for image #1 (1.jpg), the coffee mug with latte art placed in a cozy and inviting café environment. The warmth, realistic lighting, composition, and overall atmosphere stand out, making it the most visually appealing and authentic render among the provided options.
