Mate motion propagation/inherit through assembly levels
I have the following assembly structure Top-Assembly Sub-Assembly 1 (stationary) Sub-Assembly 2 (rotating relatively to Sub-Assembly 1) With Sub-Assembly 2 having the following structure Sub-Assembly 2 Sub-Assembly 3 (stationary) Sub-Assembly 4 (sliding relatively to Sub-Assembly 3) Now on top-Assembly level I have one…

What is the transform field in the occurrence field when I query the assembly API doing?
What is the transform field in the occurrence field when I query the assembly API doing? The transformation matrix is exerted on which matrix I can query from? Are there anyways that I can see the location of the mate connector in the coordinate system that can tell me in what ways are the parts or subassemblies are…

Question about how to see which two parts mateConnector connects by using the OnShape API
I'm curious about how to see which two parts mate connector connects by using the API provided by OnShape. So when I get the features list from API, I cannot find a property in that json file that can represent the two parts that the mate connector connects.

Hiding parts in drawing....!!!!
So, I have a part studio with configurations. In one configuration of which I want to create a 2D drawing. In this configuration, one extrude feature is suppressed, which results in one part of the part studio being hidden. Now I created an assembly with this configuration(in which one part is hidden) and it looks exactly…

Add part to studio or assembly
I have a partner platform where the user will be able to copy a part from one document to an assembly in another. I can't quite seem to figure out the correct process to do this through the APIs. Is this just adding a feature?

imported assemblies not constrained
Parts in assemblies that I've imported from McMaster Carr and others my boss has created are not mated to one another once I get them into an assembly document. The components "pull apart" as I move them about to mate them to other components in the assembly. What am I missing?

Assembly not Updating with Parts Studio Changes
I'm still early in the learning process of Onshape and can't seem to figure out why my Assebmly has stopped updating with my Parts Studio changes. Here is a copy of the document: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/02b6b3c2259e290ef3b61e45/w/f1d90e03301051f3713902c0/e/4515d4c554fb82bca8410db9

Using groups from assembly in drawings
Trying to layout my parts for laser cutting. It's a set of shelves with many parts. I used the Auto Layout featurescript, which works great. The problem is my parts are too big to be able to put on a single page. I can make groups for each page in the assembly, but my only choice is to either put the whole assembly on a…

Using a sketch to position parts in an assembly
I've read what I've found about sketches in an assembly but I cannot do it. What I want to do is that I have several parts and I want to create an assembly out of them based on a sketch, where the sketch specifies the position of the parts. I read that you can 'bring' sketches to an assembly and then attach mater…

the assembly studio does not automatically update when previously inserted parts are updated within
The assembly studio does not automatically update when parts are updated within the part studio? Is there a way to initiate the assembly update when parts have been updated?

Section view of only specific parts in an assembly
Is it possible to create a section view of only some parts in an assembly? For instance, how the cutaway view below cuts through the engine block but not the pistons, valves, crankshaft, etc. Thanks you

Embedding an STL file into a second STL file
I am trying to identify a way to produce an STL file that has an imprint of my grip (hand,fingers) on it. I have found some 3D scanning sodftware (Qlone for IOS) to capture a STL of my hand, but now I want to take that image and form an impression on another STL file, like a handle for example. Does anyone have any…

Handle Geometry In Exercise 5.2.2 - Creating Mate Connectors Changes CoM
Hey Everyone! I redid this exercise but I am running into the same issue. I'm initially trying to follow the directions verbatim in order to better understand how OnShape works and handles. The issue I am running into is with the way the arm loads the angle of geometry in Slide (Step) 12 eventually translates into an…
