Re: Convert assembly directly to part studio

neil_brennan said:

How do you "create a part studio in context"???? I get that it probably solves the problem, but have no idea how to go about it.

Load your assembly with all the parts required and in the positions you want and click the icon shown here (create Part Studio in context). Once you have your new in context part studio do a translate copy all parts in position which will be shown transparent.

Re: Defining Libraries for Featurescript Usage?

Yes, we're working on supporting this for custom features, but it's going to be a bit of time before it's available.

Re: Need advice on how to make my Airflow Bottle waterproof

I'm realizing all of the advice here assumes we have to use the FDM machine. You could hire someone to print it on a resin machine like a Formlabs, and it would be easy to get a print that doesn't leak.

Save Sheet Metal Parameter Profiles

When I am designing sheet metal, I spend too much time looking up bend radii and k factors when I change materials, thickness, or shops. It would be very helpful to be able to save named configurations of sheet metal parameters. That way, I could select the correct parameters just by recognizing the name of a profile, such as, "5052 Aluminum, .063, Send Cut Send."
