FeatureScript Library (New Custom Features!) 💎

MichaelPascoe

Introducing the 

CADSharp FeatureScript Library 

www.cadsharp.com/featurescripts




This library is compiled of custom features written by CADSharp developers, completely FREE for you to use. These custom features demonstrate only a few of the neat things we can create for you using Onshape's native FeatureScript language. We specialize in improving your CAD efficiency; if you don't see what your looking for, contact us!

Currently, the library is made up of features from the following CADSharp developers: 

• @caden_armstrong
  
• I'm sure we'll see @Jacob_Corder on here eventually
• @Konst_Sh | @Konstantin_Sh | @konstantin_shiriazdanov
• @MichaelPascoe

Looks like @Evan_Reese at Ovyl made a few of Konstantin's icons. Thanks Evan!
Also, thanks to anyone else who may be involved in the creation of these custom features.

Stay tuned! More custom features will be added regularly.

How to add a custom feature to your toolbar?

Many of the current features in the list you are familiar with, but we have new ones as well as more familiar ones coming soon.

Thanks for sharing, Michael! There were some cool ones in there I wasn't aware of. I can tell you all have done some work on unifying them all too. Thanks for the shoutout on the icons too. Please keep using them so we don't have ugly feature lists.

Zone Delete has been added to the CADSharp FeatureScript Library!

Zone Delete is capable of deleting entities based on a specified region.
Useful when patterned parts must stay in or out of a set zone.

Thanks for sharing this resource.  The site looks very slick as well!

Imprint has been added to the CADSharp FeatureScript Library!
www.cadsharp.com/featurescripts

Imprint places a sketch onto your part via extrude, offset surface, or split face. If you store sketches in your custom frame library, the feature will remember your sketch selection for future use no matter which document you're in! This is useful for simple logos, icons, and other enclosed sketches like words.

Imprint looks really helpful.

Transform Pattern has been added to the CADSharp FeatureScript Library!
www.cadsharp.com/featurescripts

Transform Pattern was written by @Konstantin_Sh, a CADSharp developer. It has been around for a while but we are thrilled to display it in our library! This feature is useful when you need to pattern entities or features in a non linear or non circular way. Looks like @Evan_Reese made that legit icon for it

love that feature!

@MichaelPascoe thanks for the great tools.  been using them allmost daily. feel like this should have been standard content. If it would be possible to do the same thing in an assembly. this would be awesome. 

edit: would it be possible to use transform pattern to the ponits defined with the 3D point custom feature? This would allow to copy a part to specific locations in space. adding instances when the numebr of points within the feature increases.

@stvnvl_8501 Glad you like it!

I pushed a quick update for you that will allow the selection of composite parts as targets. Using the Polyline option in Evan's Freeform spline feature should achieve similar results to what you are trying to do.

For some reason all of the forum gifs are messed up for me. Not sure if others are having the same issue?

Measure cut list has been added to the CADSharp FeatureScript Library!
www.cadsharp.com/featurescripts

Measure cut list was written by @MichaelPascoe , a CADSharp developer. We have pushed some exciting auto measure updates to this feature! This feature is useful when you need a table of measurements from your parts in the part studio.

Set Property has been added to the CADSharp FeatureScript Library!
www.cadsharp.com/featurescripts

This custom feature sets the properties of your parts. Useful for dynamically controlling part properties. It even lets you set custom properties!

Tips:

• Custom property ID's are found in your company settings.
• Right click on any value input to convert it to expression. This means you can use variables to drive the values.
