How to prevent merging of different frames when they touch
Hi all, I have created a simple frame and then built parts on top of it (all in the same Part Studio). The main frame in red has been created using a rectangle in a sketch then the Frame feature with ISO rectangular tube. The tube 1 in green has been created from another sketch using a single line. I have used variables to…

Exporting a sketch as a DXF?
Hi everyone - I am somewhat competent with OnShape and creating basic 3D things but I am struggling with a new project I am working on. I want to make some cribbage boards on irregularly shaped wood using my laser to mark the dots on the wood so I can drill them out. What I am trying to do is use a spline to create the…

Two point generation for imported parts.
I want to do a two point generation system for imported parts in a featurescript I'm making and I previously did it like this if (definition.generationChoice == generationType.TWO) { opExtrude(context, id + "hexShaft", { "entities" : qSketchRegion(id + "sketchOne", true), "direction" : dir, "endBound" : BoundingType.BLIND,…

First project challenge — bending irregular geometry in Onshape
Hi, this is my first full project in Onshape. I’m still very much a beginner, and my goal is to turn a vacuum into my favorite droid — R2-D2 from Star Wars. Right now I’m stuck trying to bend one of R2’s arms and could really use some advice. At first I tried using projected curves, but I found that both the top and front…

How to select the farthest point on an item in a sketch?
I'm trying to make a latch on a box and I would like the latch to be spaced a certain distance away from a curve, but I'm not sure how to do so. What I want to do is have the furthest left point on this curve spaced a defined distance away from a line laterally. I marked this image up to try to help explain. Link if needed

Strange Undefined (?) Sketch Arc Never Goes Away
Hi, I'm a student designing for FRC team 2415 and I've discovered a weird error that I don't even understand. I was designing a gusset for our robot when these unselectable, omnipresent undefined arcs appeared in the parts studio. When I checked the assembly I had used the part it, they appeared there too! Only information…

Create surface from perpendicular sketches? (making 3D printed mask)
Hello people, I quickly drew up these two sketches for a snake design mask and would like to know how I could possibly use both to form a surface which I can thicken later? Image below should hopefully explain better: The front plane sketch is the main front facing design, and the right plane is just one spline sticking…

Non-Hybrid Modeling
I am a professional engineer with over a decade in modeling experience on multiple platforms (solid edge, solid works, Inventor, and Catia). A large part of my experience with complex modeling was using CATIA with which I excelled with robust design models. During this time, I almost exclusively used what I have come to…
