Use what you have as an outline for new simplified surfaces

Some great stuff here, but my favorite is definitely SHEET METAL FORM. Yay! Thank you so much!

Re: Align Views to each other
Thanks, I understand your comment. Sometimes though adding a view that does not have another view to project from is beneficial. I may want to reference it to a view in a different orientation that has features I'd like to show side by side. It seems like a simple feature to have, I had it in CREO.

Post/Machine customization is something that is planned for the future, yes
Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
At least the description mentions: "CAM Studio supports the most common machine types. Moreover, users can customize their tool libraries, machines, and post-processors to accurately represent their capabilities and equipment."
Editing / creating new post processors is usually possible in pretty much any CAM software.

Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
I think the easiest way to incentivize large companies to still go for the more expensive tiers would be to reserve the advanced company wide PDM and PLM features to Pro and Enterprise. Companies with many employees need these features. All the rest in Pro (private documents, 3 axis CAM, rendering etc.) is also helpful or even crucial for individuals who iterate on potential new business ideas and even hobbyists and of course in education, too..
I am convinced that this would generate a lot more revenue for Onshape than the current model.

Re: Virtual Sharps and Arcs
Haha. Usually, if I don't hit something right, I rather tend to zoom in … ;0)
