Re: Second opTransform not working following same format as previous one

.yAxis is not a thing. You have to use yAxis(MC)

So, if we've had a couple rounds of stability fixes behind the scenes, does this mean we get special treats today?

Re: How do I change configuration value type from "Integer" to "Real"?

The best way will be to delete that configured variable and create another one with the same name.
This doesn't sound amazing, but it is very quick and gets the job done.

Re: How do I change configuration value type from "Integer" to "Real"?

Delete and recreate the configuration input variable. If the variable name is the same, references and uses won't be broken (note that this is not true for list configuration inputs).

Re: How can I generate a line in 3D space and extrude a circle along it using the Onshape REST API?

We have an example here : https://onshape-public.github.io/docs/api-adv/featureaccess/#create-a-cylinder .

.STEP A214 and A242 Not exporting face appearances correctly

just released an assembly which has 3 different face appearances indicative of surface textures, they display correctly in onshape and on the drawings, but as per the usual due diligence check I checked the exported file from onshape in both onshape and solidworks before sending to external vendor to see that some of the face appearances are missing.

this now means going back and obsoleting the revision, creating a new drawing sheet and displaying the face appearances for each part in each area and exporting the 3D in A213 as A214 does not seem to be working correctly.
