Re: Featurescript Boolean of Booleans not working
Thanks Neil,
I missed that piece of logic to understand what I was doing wrong.
Also, I think it is worth mentioning another similar discussion that I just found and that provides a good workaround (of which now I understand the logic): query bodies created by boolean? — Onshape
Cheers
Re: Create new part from sheet metal model that has internal extrusion
Thanks so much, So close, I couldn't see the wood for the trees! I spend ages going over it. All sorted now
Re: How do I rotate an object?
No need for anger. The folks here want to help.
There is a common thread for some people to do a lot of transforms. In IMHO they are mostly unnecessary and seam to lead to confusion for the reason they are used,
Parts can be repositioned in the assembly to meet the goals using mates as intended.
Another option in this case would be to draw the gears first and work from existing parts to draw new parts in place with no transforms,
My sample did not take long to rebuild with out transforms except the the one I used to set gear index.
Animate Revolute 1 or 2 in assembly if you want it to spin.
Re: where can I find the setting of quantity holes?
when you use the hole callout table, the quantity is added automatically. That would be recommended.
for a particular hole call-out the arrow suggests you mean that particular one, so counting automatically would add unlogical numbers there…
Circular removed extrusions can be called out automatically if you tag them in your model using the custom feature discussed below:
Re: How do I rotate an object?
You can use the "Realign" option to adjust your mate connector to point in whichever way you want (without needing a sketch).
As far as finding it… Well, that's were looking at the help/tutorials comes in handy…
Re: How do I rotate an object?
If you haven't done any of the learning center it will help to go through some of the fundamentals training bits. learning how the tools work will help not only do what you want now but also learn how to do what you want and more later. If there were a transform tool tutorial I'd link it for you but sadly I don't see that. I'm sure what you want to do can be done 100% of the time.

Re: BUG: top face of solid disappears when adding fillet to edge
I was able to fix the part in multiple ways, but the fact still stands that simply trying to add a fillet caused an entire face of a solid to disappear. should I just report this?
Re: Featurescript Boolean of Booleans not working
var boolResult = qCreatedBy(id + "cylinder1", EntityType.BODY);
The result of a boolean has the same id as the first body in the boolean operation.
query bodies created by boolean?
Re: Adding Configuration to BOM Table
Thank you, everyone!
I was able to achieve this by utilizing three custom features to bring the configurable variable value into the Name property. This allows anyone reviewing the BOM to easily identify different profile sizes without the need for additional drawings.
Thank you @MichaelPascoe for the support!
