Our office desktop is still running Windows 7 because several legacy applications installed on that machine are already fully configured and licensed for that setup, so upgrading the OS is not currently an option. On this machine, Onshape Part Studios and Assemblies work perfectly fine. However, the Drawings module does…

Extrude on a tapered surface
I am trying to make consistent depth splines on a tapered tube. I always end up with splines that are deeper on one end. How do I get the extrude to follow the tapered surface and not extrude perpendicular to sketch plane?

Remove over extrusion from sweep that extends past face on another part
I have a test piece where I am trying to have a component that is internal to a block and goes along a sweep path. The sweep path I have is slightly longer than the face it is connecting to so the extrusion removes the full face as setting to coincident doesnt remove the whole face from the sweep. When I do the sweep of…

Why can't this be constrained as concentric if i can "manually constrain" by setting distance of 0?
Wondering if someone can please look at "Sketch 1" in V2 (it's a work in progress, i likely will have just worked around the issue by the time you hopefully kindly open my document ;) But V2 has the problem. I was previously just filleting these corners but I want to do this "in sketch" now (basically decision for printing…

Insert drawing views of standard content
Our company catalog division has a lot of manuals made from Solidworks era that need updated post-move to Onshape and we're making extensive use of the standard content library fasteners these days instead of maintaining a custom fastener library like we used to have to. The question is, how can I make an Ikea style manual…

Extrude to a varied depth
Hi, Just wondering if this is possible.. so say I sketch a simple rectangle, when I extrude it solid, I get to choose depth of the extrude (default 25) but I would like 1 end of the extrude to go the 25mm, but the opposite end to only go to say 10mm depth. I tried the draft option, but it tapers in the edge and not the…

Sketches not fully defined and I... admittedly don't understand constraints yet.
Okay, I'm at a loss for what I'm doing wrong here in that my sketches aren't fully defined. I get that it has something to do with constraints and possibly mate connectors, but I have no idea what I have to do to fix it. I see all kinds of discussions on WHY parts need to be fully defined, etc., but I'm finding exactly…

Doing a reverse fillet on a curved edge
I just started learning CAD and I am currently working on a part that needs a reverse fillet. I already looked for answers on the forum and reddit, but all the ones I found worked by just removing a certain shape (e.g. a circle) from the edge, wich only works with straight parts. In my case I need that reverse fillet…
