Re: Not a perfect round surface on a ball
3D printing quality is dependent on geometry and printer machine capability and settings. What you're seeing on screen is something of the computer does to represent a curve. What you're seeing on a 3D print is a result of your export settings. Try going with fine detail on the export settings or custom if you need even less segmentation.

Re: Linear pattern not extruding on all parts
You are doing a part pattern, which does of course copy that part complete with holes, but then doing a boolean union, where your long rails do not have holes so this of course results in no holes there.
You would be better off doing a feature or face pattern here.
Re: Linear pattern not extruding on all parts
There's an important difference between copying a feature and copying geometry which was affected by a feature.
The feature makes the holes in your 2 parts, so there are 2 holes even though in your case they are in the same place. When you pattern a part with a hole you only get the hole in the part you copy. When you pattern the hole feature it creates new holes in the parts you select for it to make holes in.
You should go through the tutorials in the learning centre
Re: Unable to select middle point of face
Yeah that's what I suspected… Lots of "poor practice" in this video, I would not use that to learn as it will teach you bad habits and/or convoluted ways of doing things…
Re: Imported DXF Not Fully Defined
Inside sketcher: select everything by drawing a mouse box around all the lines. Then go to the constraints menu and select "fix". Now all the lines will be black. Delete all the dims you made before doing this.
Side note, if your dxf imports are usually this simple of just a few lines and a circle, it's probably worth redrawing them natively in OS. (assuming you want to be able to modify them in the future)
Re: Links in this forum: Require improvements
Yes - this one area was a step backward, with the new patch.
Re: Anyone wants to try out my Radius Plot FS ?
This is exactly the tool I was looking for a few days ago! Thx!
