Re: Pill shaped detent using revolve feature
Does one of these look like what you want?
Re: Drawing Title = Part Name, Drawing Number = Part Number?
The reason is when you export a 3D asm for a vendor, all the components in the tree upon the STEP export take "name". I want them to have a PN for the vendor. But for me internally, I want text there so I know what is what, which comes in super handy when modeling. The export of assemblies' internal components does not follow the export rules.
I don't know if this is the best way, but I found it worked for me, after trying a couple of other ways.
Re: I want to make a path for a hoop
Something like this?
Re: Strange behavior of sketches when changing the inclination of the plane.
A really good way to deal with this is to use a mate connector instead of a plane. That way you have full control over the sketch axes
Re: How Do I Break Dependencies From a Derived Part So I Can Get Rid Of It?
@fisch_fischer Simon is right here. You don't have to break it, and can either hide or delete the derived part. However, you're also right that in the future, you should avoid deriving reference parts to model on top of, and if you do, be sure you don't directly reference them. Your link isn't working for me so I can't give much more detail to your situation. Maybe it needs to be made public?
Re: How Do I Break Dependencies From a Derived Part So I Can Get Rid Of It?
You don't need to break the dependencies. You can leave the derive in place. You can just hide the derive without removing your new part. You can also use the delete part feature late in your model to make it so that you can't accidentally unhide the part, but if you roll before the delete part feature, the derived part is still available to reference as needed.

Re: Renaissance - Big update and a new tool
The "magic drawings" app is a collection of smaller drawing automation functions. It started as a beta tool, I should really rename it to "Misc Drawing Tools"
Importing CSV's as drawing tables
Inserting inspection tables into drawings
Setting the drawing part number (from the referenced part's number)
