Get corresponding queries in patterned things?
I'm toying around with something to do with patterned sketches, and would like to have users choose a point on the input sketch and let the feature query all of the "same point" in the patterned ones. Any ideas? It seems like if I reference it with an external feature (like 3D points) then pattern both features it works,…

Does configured property material has to be recognized in assembly
Hello, Well, I have a problem/question, and I hope someone can give me an answer. I created a simple flange configuration (in PartStudio) and added two instances, each with a different material (defined in Configured properties): one is Aluminium and the other is Steel. When I change the instance and check Part1 material,…

2D to 3D with Vizcom and import to Onshape.
If you want to recreate historical buildings with a CAD system, you often can’t avoid modeling many intricate ornaments. As experienced CAD designers using Onshape know, that’s almost impossible to do properly. If you want to do it neatly, you have to use a mesh editor like Blender. Much easier is to use Vizcom for a…

How to make multiple parts into one part?
In my project I have to fasten my Santa clause piece, which is in the super structure folder labeled Santa. However, I made a mistake while trying to color my Santa by making different parts of my Santa separate pieces. Now, when I try to insert my santa into my main assembly and fasten it to my structure, it only fastens…

Plane orientation
Do planes have a hidden mate that allows you to change their orientation? I tried creating a 3-point plane both ways, but the plan is "off axis" (aligned to the edge of the pyramid, I assume) no matter what I try. The same is tru if I simply create a sketch on the pyramid's face. But at least with a sketch I can manipulate…

Issues with DXF files
I'm laying out pieces to laser cut to have an estimate of how much sheet metal will be used. Something like such (just pulled an image from the internet): I have like ~100 individual pieces to laser cut and Onshape becomes embarassingly slow when I try to place them as plain sketches on a "big canvas". Now I export my…

References not auto-updating
Up until a few days ago, my main assembly would automatically update all references. Now, for even sub-assemblies, I need to update each individual reference. This has annoyed me because in the past I didn't need to create new versions every time.

CONFIGURATIONS
I wanted to know if it's possible to create a feature script that can read your configurations tables so instead of doing a csv, I could create one that automatically reads it and then I can create a custom table and insert that into my drawing.

Failure of a feature to regenerate after re-login?

But a few hours later, when I logged in again, a feature (a replace face in my case, which also triggered the following failures) failed to regenerate. What might have caused this? And the spooky thing is, after I restored it to where I had left,…

My wiring does not show in my assembly drawing

New FeatureScript: Mold Guide Pins
Hi everyone, I made a new featurescript to create pyramid and hemisphere guide pins for 3D printed molds. I based the functionality on the hole tool, where you just have to select points. Add points to the parting surface and then select them to add and subtract guide pins from each side. Link: William's 3D Printing…
