Re: "Cannot resolve entities" error with sheet metal tool

Sheet metal does not support revolved surfaces - it can only handle surfaces which can be unrolled onto plane precisely. Try Flatten surface functionality instead https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/analysis_tools.htm#Flatten

Thanks for your help.

Maybe we should suggest it as a request feature!

Re: is there a way to automatically set material to all your designed parts?

I think what might be most useful would be a "part template" system.
That way you could apply sets of properties to parts in one go, maybe even just an extension of "categories" to including some data (instead of just the fields) and then you would just need to be able to set one to use by default…

. Something I've been searching for. This will help so much with ocd of trying to match up with import scans at least for flat areas.. Now if we can get something similar for non planer surfaces…we'll be cookin'!!
