Coincident constraint leaves gap between splines
Im trying to make a face closing the path between the inner ear spline and the body spline, but the point will not lock onto the line whether I constrain it or not. Dont mind the copied part studio, that was just a testbed that got me nowhere.

Where did the tangent tool go?
I can't find the tangent tool in part studio even using the 'search tool" tool.

Variable Hole Count With Calculated Spacing
I wasn't able to find a good answer searching the forum, so hopefully this hasn't been a repeated question. I'm creating a configurable enclosure that is assembled with fasteners. I have two requirements for the fastener holes: 1) the end holes must be a consistent distance from the back and front of the box and 2) the…

Curve pattern between parts from two points
Hello, this is my first time asking for help even though I always felt reluctant I have become increasingly desperate to cut the monotony of a process. I am a high schooler working on a project involving chain links that follow curves and I would like to know a faster way to pattern a link with two points around several…

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…

How Do I Reach Out to FeatureScript Dev?
I am attempting to bug report for FeatureScript's Point Pattern but am not sure how to reach out to any devs since I cannot find anything online or on featurescript docs. Any help would be appreciated!

Oval/Polygon Pattern?
I have an oval-like shape (12-sided polygon) that I would love to pattern a feature onto each face. If it was a regular polygon, I could just use circular, but in this case, it is "squashed" so it doesn't apply as easily. I have tried to make equivalent circle sketches between faces and do multiple circular patterns and…

How to fill up to two instersecting curves
Hello- I am trying to recreate the switchplate cover pictured below. I think that I have the basic shape here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/13d03def58a94f153d4bf668/w/71d699865e7f906da9e38337/e/838a32abeca1b23ace63d0cd?renderMode=0&uiState=65f458ffe2ad951e2bbe72ee and as shown in the screenshot below.

Difference in quality between exportings of the same file (using same quality preset)
Hi! I have been using onshape for more than a year and I can tell it is a great tool. I have recently found something really weird when exporting parts. Everytime I open a new document and download a part, that part will have a worse quality to the ones I download next to it. For example, if I want to download a part from…

My option to make an exploded view is greyed out in the assembly
For some reason, I am unable to make an exploded view, as the option is completely greyed out. Here is a picture of the assembly if that helps at all. (Don't think about my mate usage too much lol)

Is there a way to add the vertical heights of every point on 2 parts?
So if I have 2 parts intersecting each other, can you somehow add the vertical heights together (ie not just using the union function). For the example provided below, I'm looking for a function that would take in the chevron and the arc and output the sketch above (except for parts not sketches) Note: this example is very…

How can I extrude surfaces between my sketch lines?
Hi! I've created a sketch of a top plate for a drone off of an existing design. However, when I attempted to extrude it into a part it was only extruding the sketch lines and the places I have circles and slots. Is there any way to essentially flip what is being extruded so that it is everything between the sketched lines,…

How to make multiple instances of feature based on selecting multiple mate connectors.
If some could help me with this or give me a reference document with something similar that would be great. I am trying to make a shape appear wherever I select a mate connector using Feature Script.

Sheet metal thickness custom property computed value.
I've created a custom feature for the thickness of a sheet metal part (to be used in a BOM). Currently, you have to type in the thickness manually but it would be nice if the value could be computed. If you set the thickness of a sheet metal part to be 3mm, I am curious how you would get this value in a custom feature to…

Can I have unique names for assemblies and their mates that are created via circular pattern.
Hi, I've got a couple of subassemblies stacked and connected via revolute mates into a "tower". I have no problem duplicating this aggregate assembly using Assembly Circular Pattern, resulting in a few towers. However, I've got the mates uniquely named in tower1 (dof_tower1_a, dof_tower1_b, ...), and would like to be able…

Animation fail while following a surface
I have up a tool path simulation and running into an error massage that I haven't been able to sort out. When animating the cylindrical mate to see affects of tangent mate I can only get a quarter turn. I think it as to do with the ruled surface use to close the part but not sure. Any thoughts?…

Stop Onshape appending "Drawing 1" to new drawings
G'day Onshape experts! I'm in the process of setting up my companies approvals workflow and standardising how we name parts, assemblies, and drawings. Something that is quite annoying is that when you make a drawing of a part / assembly by default it names the drawing the part / assemblies name and then appends "Drawing…

Linear Mass Custom Property via FeatureScript
I have successfully created a few lines of FeatureScript to take the volume of a 100mm long extrusion and output the volume per metre (including changing the units) using evVolume. I want to do the same thing with mass per metre, but it appears evApproximateMassProperties requires a hard-called density, even though the…
