Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
Love the improvment to sheet metal form tools. I'm imaginging all sorts of ways of using this to standardize certain sheet metal profiles. Finally dimensioning created geometry in drawings is also huge. I've been waiting for this for so long I actually forgot I wanted it! It was the main thing in my experience that made coming from SolidWorks drawings to Onshape drawings a bit of a drag.
Hiding the Drag Coordinate Axes Arrows in Assembly View
The giant arrows pop up whenever I select/highlight a face. Is there anyway to hide them?

Whoop Whoop!
Probably one of you best Onshape Updates, I know CAM is stealing the limelight but all the other improvements here are really big hitters for us.
Keep listening and keep improving you are continuing to create a fantastic product.
Well done Onshape
Re: Improvements to Onshape - January 31st, 2025
I haven't got access to any of the CAM stuff or the docs … can someone clarify if custom gcode is supported so I can add my Carvera if they don't have support for it already?

Not getting simple 2.5 axis Cam for "standard" subscription is a real disappointment.
other than that, a great update.

Wire clip curves not included in the composite part and therefore unelectable.

Any ideas? Thanks Chris

@GregBrown uploaded a more in depth video to his YouTube channel about the sheet metal forming tools. This answers a bunch of questions I had about using them for FPCs. I imagine it will be interesting for a bunch of people.

I'll add my vote to the "Cam for Educational users." I use onshape with my students for 3D printing projects but I'm forced to go to Fusion 360 for CNC router projects.

@S1mon yes you just need to configure the "Form Part Studio" - it behaves like configuring a selection field. Or you can configure a variable and drive it with that which may be easier.
