Re: Not sphere shaped lowering?
Hi, I would sweep a surface. The profile would be the curvature (x1/x2) and the path would be the curvature y1/y2 (or the other way round). This should create the profile you want.
Re: Not sphere shaped lowering?
Have you considered creating a set of constrained reference points (measured from the back of you monitor housing) and put a spline through them?
Re: Chisel (New Custom Feature!) 🆕
Let me tell you that I scrolled by that render thinking it was a picture, if @bryan_lagrange had not pointed it out I would have never known.
Really neat feature!

Re: #TraditionalCADsucks
We are about to update from SW2023 to 2024 (Since you always have to wait for 3 service packs before you get to actually try the 'current version' of solidworks without having crippling day 1 bugs)

Re: Making dimensions EQUAL = whilst in a sketch
Maybe this would work for you.null_null3941 said:When in a sketch, it would be great if we could make dimensions equal so the dimensions change together when I make a dimensional change.
Using the EQUALS CONSTRAINT
The darker lined dimension in the upper rectangle is DRIVING the gray lined dimension in the lower rectangle
ALSO, all lines on the upper rectangle have the EQUALS constraint applied
Whereas in the lower rectangle, only the right most line has the EQUALS constraint applied
Re: ADDING MANY ROWS TO CONFIGURED PROPERTIES TABLE BY PASTING IN DATA
@Caden_Armstrong
Editing the properties table is usually preferred for me also by using a spreadsheet. For me, the most cumbersome part of it is what seems like it should be the simplest for onshape to address. Getting the initial rows into the table so that I can paste my data into them. If an api application had a simple input so you could enter 400, for example, hit enter and 400 rows were created, it would be really great. What actually get put into the rows during creation, for me, is trivial. I just want the rows so I can paste my data in. Not sure why onshape can't just take a day for a developer and add a little number input beside the plus button so people can specify how many rows right within the table UI.

Re: Support for Anisotropic and/or Orthotropic Materials
The same goes for some 3D-Printed materials, which have different properties due to the layered process of printing. As these get more common, it would be good, if they could also be simulated a bit more precise.
