Derived different from original!
These two shots are section views of the same part. The first one is the original ("square light block" in this studio), the second is the exact same part Derived in another studio in the same document. How is that the "tunnel" path is different? I've not done any mods in the derived studio. How is this possible and how to…

Custom Feature: Amalgam Tag and Amalgamate
Are you like me and use Point Derive for everything? The ability to draw a part studio in one document and copy and paste functional geometry all over a different document is a huge force multiplier for quickly and precisely generating complex parts that adhere to centralized standards and document control schemes. For…

Batch Engraving Different Logos on the Same Part
Hi everyone, I’m working on a project where I need to engrave the same box divider part with multiple different logos. The goal is to create identical parts, each with a different logo applied. All the logos have the same bounding dimensions, and their placement on the part will be consistent. Is there a way to automate…

"Use"ing a "Derived" part breaks when Derived location changes
I get some weird behavior when changing the location of a Derived part that is Use'd in a sketch. All my Use constraints are broken. Steps to repro: (see Part Studio 1 and Part Studio 2 for an example) Define Part 1 in some Part Studio Derive Part 1 into some other Part Studio (e.g., Part Studio 2) and set the location to…

Is there a way to prohibit including properties for Derived parts at a company level?
I waste a lot of time removing duplicate names and part numbers from Derived parts that my coworkers have made. We have no use case for having multiple parts with the same name and part number.

Onshape API: How to get the source Part (Part ID like #JFD) of a Derived part?
Hi all, I’m trying to determine—via API—from which exact source Part a given Derived part was created. Concretely, I want the short Part ID from the source Part Studio (e.g., #JFD), not just the document/element pointers. What I’ve checked so far I can read the target Part Studio’s feature list (GET…

Modified off-the-shelf parts
In SW, I would make an assembly, then use assembly features to make the modification. Then in the drawing I can use a BOM to show what components went into the modified "assembly". Often there would be only one line in the BOM. In OS, I can use a "Derived" feature in a part studio to bring in the components, but I see no…

How to get a derived part to automatically change based on existing variables
Hello! New to Onshape and trying to streamline some stuff. I have a Part that leverages some variables in one Part Studio and I'd like to Derive this part in another Part Studio. While inserting/Deriving the part works just fine, I'd like this part to dynamically get resized based on the same variables in the Part Studio…

Editing derived parts imported ?
I have an assembly of a bot 3d printer that I imported from a step file from a third party. I imported to https://cad.onshape.com/documents/07388f04120dfa3dfde85284/w/6e6f6c38c69002c1e5dfe6bf/e/b7fecb0b2b24424c76e002fd I have a query about a how to edit parts though well I guess part studio's and assemblies. I want to…

Derived Assembly
I figured out I can't do boolean operations in the assembly, so I would have to use derive in the part studio, but the part studio cannot derive assemblies, as far as I understand;) I have inserted a sink assembly on top of cabinet assembly, but the cabinets would have to be cut to not stick out of the sink;)
