  • Editing Hole Callout formula

    Counterdrill hole (Countersink hole + Extra head clearance) is an option available in other CAD software, but doesn't seem to be an option with Onshape currently. I have cobbled together a feature script based on Hole feature that does the job geometrically, but the callout is as if it's just a Countersink hole. I'm…

  • OSHAPE drawing - perpendicular section

    Hello, I'm working on a drawing of a plate with angeled shape (triagle shape). I yould like to ask you how to do perpendicular section to a edge of a part. When I tried to do it, it is not possible for me to pick a perpendicular constrain. T hanks for some tips

  • Part Revision Number on Drawing

    Hi guys I'm struggling with getting the revision number on my drawings since I activated the pro-license. When releasing a drawing together with the part both revision numbers are changed. But the revision number is not loaded into the drawing: only a "-" is showing. But when making a version of the part first and then…

  • Configuration Variables and Tables

    Hi, I have a simple part that is a custom connector. I have two configuration variables that define the size of the two connecting ends (e.g., 6 mm to 4 mm). The size of the part changes with these values. Is there a way to have a table in a drawing that shows values for a dimension for different combinations of these two…

  • API Support for C# Application

    Good morning, I have been going through the examples for the API and looking for a little help / guidance from the community on how to accomplish my sample task. In essence I am trying to create a new drawing, insert 2 sample DWG blocks inside it at specific coordinates, and then export the drawing to an Azure BLOB. All of…

  • Do lofts normally not show on drawings or did I do something wrong?

  • Is there any way to obtain the x-axis and y-axis of a plane through API?

    I want to model through API calls, but my sketch is a 3D coordinate point, and I think it needs to be converted before it can be drawn on a plane. However, I am not sure about the rules of coordinates on a plane. Thank you to everyone who helped me.

  • A question about B-Spline to Interpolated-Spline

    I’d like to ask if there is a way to convert a B-Spline (defined by control points, knots, etc.) into an Interpolated-Spline (defined solely by a series of points, similar to the spline in Onshape UI). The evCurveDefinition function returns the parameters of the B-spline (control points, knots, etc.), but the parameters I…

  • Can't figure out how to make a tapered symmetrical open donut

    I'm trying to find a way to make something like the attached image. The closest I could get is the other attached image (basically a circle, revolved symetrically, with chamfered ends (I couldn't chamfer more than 0.9mm before it wouldn't work — why is that?). The profile should smoothly taper from the thickest, about 2mm…
