Re: a unique asymmetrical chamfer
.
One way to do this is by creating a sketch profile on the left "Triangle A" and a sketch profile on the right "Triangle B" and using the Loft subtract to remove the lofted space between.
Another way would be to draw a sketch line on the top of the part, similar to your yellow line, then loft it to a line representing the end of the current chamfer. Then you can split the part using the lofted surface.

I read in a thread from years past that the featurescript IDE is based on a generic web IDE (ace), so the features are likely what came out of the box. Actually, code folding is supported: on windows highlight a section and do alt-L. Wish I knew that earlier...
Re: 3D from Excel to Onshape
If still interested, I can give you a hand to do it. It will not be too difficult to automate.
Re: External Editor
Theoretically it should be possible to integrate browser based VS Code into Onshape. Amazon Web Services did this for example as a replacement of their former proprietary Lambda IDE.
Re: My wiring does not show in my assembly drawing
Hi, glad you like the wiring tools. The "Wire in-context reference" is just that, a reference, that you can use for assembly purposes (if you want). The wires themselves, you can either create a subassembly (as per the videos) and add the wires as they are created, or you can assemble as a rigid Part Studio - this will add all wires in the Part Studio to the assembly (this is new since the videos were created).
What does "Retrieving Data for 1 Body" mean, and why does it keep slowing my assembly?
We are having this pop up intermittently, yet often, and severely slowing down our assembly. Suppressing various subassemblies seem to have no effect on it. How do we find out what is causing this? It will randomly show up even after the assembly is loaded.
