Re: Custom Feature: Heat Set Insert (Threaded inserts for 3D Printed Parts)
Thanks @t_e652 ! I have added the Ruthex info into the official featurescript! You building that lookup table for me saved me a lot of time!
Re: How to angle the sides of tabs around a circular base
Draft would be my suggestion. just make the tabs normal then apply a draft to the one side.

Re: Area of multiple enclosed regions of a sketch
Re: Enclose failure samples
Not sure if this is the sort of stuff you mean but it was pretty difficult to get a solid out of this imported model!

Re: Automatic 'Zoom to fit'
Ok, in my case it turned out to be something wrong with Logitech Gaming Software, that controls my mouse. It allows have 2 different commands on each button when special "G-Shift" button is pressed. So, I changed second command for middle mouse to space and that what start causing the issue.
Even after I reverted it back to middle click, it didn't help until I restarted the software. Who would think…

Re: How to make a "shadow" behind a structure?
Like this?
I used an in-context edit and the "intersect" option to extrude the area behind the pole.

Enclose failure samples
It happens to all of us. Caused either by "oops, I forgot to select a surface" or a tiny sliver face that you didn't notice until you put "highlight boundary conditions" on.
Are there some particular, difficult-to-diagnose examples of Enclose that anyone can share?
