I apologize if this is glaringly obvious, but it has me stumped.

    1. Click on the share button to open the share options
    2. Go to the public tab
    3. Click on "Make public"

    What do I do if the Share button brings up a circle with a slash through it?
    I am a hobbyist and a technology teacher. I recently was placed on a free Professional Trial. I did not ask for this. I did not take it up. (I am now getting advice from Onshape on how to change to the EDU plan where I should be.) Now that the Professional Trial has ended, I cannot access the designs I made over the last 3 weeks. The Onshape consultant directed me to this thread so that I could make my designs public, but it doesn't work. What do I do now?

    Cheers,
    Peter

    Hi race_runner,

    If you would like to make your documents public but don't have access to the 'share' button, you can right click on the document and choose 'Make public...'

    I'm unable to make my documents public via the above methods. I had an educational license, but since graduated and have downgraded to a maker license. It appears that because some of my documents were private under my old license, I cannot access the sharing menu or modify the privacy of under the new license and those documents are left as read only.
