Re: Mate Connectors vs Planes - Why oh Why??
I also have Center Mate, one of my first FS. I need to maybe work on it a bit more, but it can be very useful for doing a "Between" Mate among multiple entities.

Re: Time Log for Documents
I also freelance, but still prefer keeping control over what time is tracked when, rather than automating it. What if i'm slicing or prototyping or sketching in 2D in other software?
I use Toggl track (they have a free plan) which is awesome because it's cloud based as well and seemlessly switches between your devices.
Moreover they have a chrome extension that integrates with Onshape for auto tracking, so this might be your solution. I just haven't used it for that so I can't comment on how well it will work

Re: Changing lookup table reference from an ENUM
In any precondition, you cannot use the same variable even if it is in a different scope. Rename them different, then use logic in the main code to use the correct variable depending upon the user selection.
Re: I want to help make custom feature icons
I'm pretty sure that the bubbleapps.io link hasn't been working for a while, unfortunately.
No question that we need better searching, discovery and monetization of custom features.

Re: Randomly shifting lines by .0001 and scuffing entire projects seemingly at random
Your sketch is too complicated and you are likely hitting the limit of number of constraints within a sketch.
- Your sketch seems symmetric so I would only draw a 1/4 (or even 1/8), which would help a lot…
- Also the "staircase part" should be a separate sketch, or maybe even does as features rather than a sketch.
We might be able to point you in the right direction if we knew what you were trying to design…
error in lesson 'understanding curves' exercise : handle
I have been enjoying the training - very good resources on the whole.
However, there should be an easy way to report issues with the training.
I couldn't find a way to do that, or even the correct topic, so I hope this ends up being useful.
Step 23 of the handle exercise asks to use the curve 'handle spline 2d a' which doesn't exist. After watching a video I think it should be 'handle curve sketch' as the lesson previously instructs to rename it to that.
