Onscale closing?!
Less than two years after being acquired by Ansys it seems Onscale.com is being closed in the new year :(
Re: In-context modeling feedback loop – am I doing it wrong?
Might worth watching through some Greg Brown's videos, for example this latest one:
This one is going pretty far in-depth but could give you some ideas.

Re: Rethinking SolidWorks
Do they know that Fusion 360 will only let you be off line for so long. I had a chuckle when a friend wanted to demonstrate for a group how he could work without a connection. Then the program insisted that he sign in because he had been offline too long. There was no Wfi in the building. LOL
Re: [Chatbot Copilot] - We Built a FeatureScript AI Assistant That Outperforms ChatGPT
Congrats! Video demonstration?
The standard rate for integrated AI is around 10 to 15 USD / month. This is the cost of git copilot for visual studio which is a must have for quick questions and repetitive work or code clean up.
Assuming it is as useful as git copilot, I would pay 15 to 30 USD / month for a tool like this. It would need to be an integrated app in the Onshape app side panel, I wouldn't want to have to go to gpt's website for every question. Not sure Onshape allows apps for feature studios though, so it might need to be a web extension that can read the featurescript on the current page then insert or replace code.

Model the lower part as a solid and then use a shell.
Re: EDITING TOOLS IN ONSHAPE DRAWINGS
Short answer is that these tools don't exist in the drawing environment, but there is a work around.
You can do it as sketches in a part studio and export to DXF and import into the drawing. It felt a bit dumb initially but it's actually quite flexible, I have setup a part studio with several sketches containing things like borders in one, a simple title block in another one, and more complete title block, etc…
The key to get the different ones to be placed correctly was to place a diagonal construction line matching the paper size in each sketch to import (bottom left to top right) and this way it will just come in centered on the page (and you just delete the one line).
