I can't seem to bend some sheet metal lines
Hi Can somebody help me please. I have managed to bed some lines but can't with others. The message I get is "Metal is connected on both sides of the bend" You can see in the attached image the bend line in between the 2 red lines. What am I doing wrong? All guidance appreciated please.

I'm new to cad and can't figure out why my shape won't make a plate
So I'm making a small stove, I made a "U" plate that will be bent, but now I want to make a front plate then makes a hole for the door, but when I extrude it just keeps the "U" shape and won't extrude as a plate.I don't know why it does that, I didn't make a rectangle then extruded it from the inside to make the shape.…

Is there a way to automate the following: copy and resize
I have just started using Onshape and I love it. I am trying to take a part, a rectangular soild, and replicate it and then resize it. I want to have this happen over and over making each part smaller and smaller in length. If that is not enough, I would link to be able to rotate each new piece around its center by a…

Best way to place a construction line from offset of circle centre to circumference?
If I want to place a slot which is in-line from the centre of a circle, and is an offset from the centre and from the circumference, the only way I can work out of doing this is to first draw a construction line from the circle centre to the circumference, then overlay a second construction line on top of the first, this I…

variables in a project.
Hello. I am designing a bed. I want to create a part for each part of the bed and then to assemble it in the assemble future. I know it is not exactly how to do it but it is easier for me to do it like that rather then all parts in one part tab. My question is is there a way to create a global variable that i can use in…

Improvements to Onshape - November 22nd, 2024
PART STUDIOS FLATTEN SURFACES Flatten surfaces is a new Analysis tool that generates a planar surface from one or more contiguous non-planar surfaces. This is useful to evaluate the flat (cut) shape for a paint mask, decal, or text curves. The result can be exported to PARASOLID, STL, DXF, or SVG file format.…

How to export curved planar surfaces of model as DXF files for plasma cutting?
My kinetic sculpture will have multiple crescent shaped bodies made from sheet metal aluminum. I want to export the curved surfaces as DXF files for plasma cutting. If I right click on the curved surface, DXF does not appear as an export option. I have tried working with the sheet metal function and cannot get it to work…

Missign references - floating and unattached red coincident icon
Hi, I made some changes to a sketch which caused multiple issues in my document, in particular "Some external references are missing". I fixed most of them, but two sketches still show erroneous and there are "overdefined" icons shown in them, but those icons seem to be just floating in space, not attached to any part of…

How to restrict @ in Comments to only show students/educators in my classroom

Point on a Curve?
I've been looking around for a FeatureScript that would do a few things: * Create a point on a curve based on a parameter (0..1) * Create a point on a curve based on chord length from chosen endpoint * Create a point on a curve based on the distance from an arbitrary reference (plane, point, line, maybe surface?) I know…

The Meaning of 'startParam' and 'endParam' Parameters in Conic Sections
I would like to understand how startParam and endParam determine the start and end points of a conic section. As shown in the diagram, when defining a conic segment, we need three points: A (start), B (end), and C (control). Point M is the midpoint of AB, and the ratio MD/MC is equal to rho. When the conic is clipped, two…

How to Reference Individual Sketch Entities

Adding dimensions to sketch features via API
Though there are guides published for adding dimensions to drawings here, I can't find any sources for how to add a dimension to a part studio. The closest I've gotten is by creating a BTMSketchConstraint2 with "DISTANCE" as the constraint type. That applies a distance dimension, but I'm struggling to get it to reference…

Documentation for btTypes
I'm looking for documentation on the various btTypes asked for by the Onshape API. Many of the API guides (such as here and here) are explicit that a given feature requires a specific btType, but the only help I've seen in learning the specific types is to make a feature, and then get a list of features from the API…
