Re: How do I resolve this Loft?
The rear profile and bottom profile didn't meet at the back.

Re: Revert a part studio in Main to last released version
There's another method not mentioned here that can revert ALL changes in a single (or multiple) tabs, even if the changes are scattered throughout the history.
-If you don't already have a version at the point in history where the tab is good, create a version there.
-Right click on that version and select "Branch to create workspace". Name it [branch].
-Switch back to the [workspace] (possibly main) where you want to restore it, then right click on [branch] and select "Merge into current workspace". DO NOT CLICK OKAY YET.
-When the dialog comes up, find the tab or tabs that you want to revert. Since you made no changes in the new workspace, the default "Tab merge strategy" will be "Keep [workspace]". You want to change that to "Replace with [branch]" for any tab you want to revert back to that time. Make sure all the tabs you don't want to change are set to "Keep [workspace]".
Re: How can I extend a Ball Screw
Hey Felix. Welcome to Onshape. In this document I took a segment of the screw out of the 'middle', duplicated it, moved the appropriate segments and booleaned all the segments back together. Planes and surfaces could also be used as split entities. - Scotty
Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
Give me a sample 3 axis part and I'll cut it on my TM2P and make a video from start to finish.

Re: Mate Connector Issues w/Spacemouse
Thanks for the advice.
I did manage to get it working again by rolling back the driver to 10.9.1. So, it appears to be a driver issue.
3Dconnexion support is aware of it now.
Thanks everyone for looking into this.

Re: why when i right click i dose it keep rotating after i have let go
It sticks for me sometimes. RMB and rotate again and it should “release” it.
Re: Rotating view locked on with mouse
Had this issue with Opera, it's related from one of the browser's default settings. Go to setting and search for mouse gestures and turn it off, fixes the issue 😉
