Next number in part number scheme feature script
How can I modify my featurescript for an O-ring part studio to automatically generate next part number for each new configuration, following the in-built onshape numbering scheme? Currently, I have to manually enter the desired configuration in the properties and create a version within the part studio. I have read that…
How to retrieve all the feature ids used to generate a part in a part studio
Hello, Is there any way to know what features and sketches (by ids or names) are used to generate a part, given the part Id using featurescript? For example, in the image, When I click on part 1, Extrude 1 is automatically highlighted, which means it's saved somewhere. Thank You.
Parts in Part Studio not showing up in Assembly
Some of the siding pieces on my model are not showing up in my Assembly view. If you look on the left side right almost even with the top of the window, the siding pieces are missing. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/6e8ae4d5888348888a640bb8/w/6e10234a35662886ff648f5a/e/edd8c80a039596f5197a4fc0
how to get the coordinates from all parts? loop through all parts en print the coordinates
Hi, I am not a programmer, but I think I want something fairly simple: I want a list of coordinates of all parts in the part studio. Basically loop through all parts and print the coordinates in the monitor (or save to csv, but that is luxury... : )…
Export an Assembly as sperate STEP files for each Part?
How can one export an Assembly ( or download to a local disk) as separate STEP files for the Parts in the assembly
How do I check what material is applied?
When I am working on a part, how do I know if a material has already been applied, or what material has been applied?
no thumbnails after import
Hi, I'm trying to import a single part studio from a .step file (or by translating a tab with an Assembly studio to a single part studio), but after the translation completes successfully I can't get any of the thumbnails from this single part studio, though I can get a link for each part and size in the api response (f.e.…
Can I "merge" disjoint parts?
I have a sketch that has a bunch of disjoint elements (rectangles mostly) lovingly arranged relative to one another. I'd like to end up with three parts (required, desired and optional) where each is made up of N sketch elements that may or may be contiguous. I'd like to then be able to add these to a diagram and…
How to fasten all parts as drawn
I've tried several things here and can't quite get what I want. I have a lot of parts within a Parts Studio drawn exactly how they would go together. I simply want to fasten all of the parts together where they are without having to do a bunch of mates. I've tried simply grouping the parts in an assembly, the using that as…
hide parts with featurescript
is there a command to hide parts via featurescript?
Insert part by name not by PartStudioData
Hi allI'm looking for a way to insert in FeatureScript existing parts by name/URL or anything else without using UI input via PartStudioData.I can generate the part name in FS via my local situation and I then insert a corresponding additional part into the local situation. I'm talking about several hundred parts here, so…
Parts losing mate connectors in assembly
In this assembly (hydronics | Assembly 1 (onshape.com)) I've inserted a couple instances of a 90 degree elbow part from a part studio in the same document. In the parts studio, the elbow part has 4 mate connectors, two at each end. When inserted into the assembly, there are only two connectors, both at one end. The…
How can i remove the material above the shell from the block? The block would act as a holder/jig.
Can't subtract on certain parts
I designed this cap for a repair I'm making, but I'm unable to subtract 4 of my 6 screw holes to bring the height down. It seems that the only differences is that the two that worked are adjoined to 2 walls as opposed to just 1. I've already spent way too long getting it to this point, but I figure it's just one of those…
is there a way of converting stl models back to a part file as in supported in FreeCad and solid wor
Is there a method of converting .stl models back into a part model for modification, as is present in FreeCad and I believe Solid Works without redrawing the model using the stl as a template/guide?
"save as"
If I "save as" will the saved part/ assembly be changed by future changes to it? Derek Westwood
Grow/increase a dimension in a pattern?
I want to create a circular pattern of a rectangular extrusion feature. As the feature rotates, I want the length of the rectangle to increase. Is this possible? I've tried a sketch pattern where the length is an equation (1+#rotangle/300) and the starting angle of the rectangle is defined by the dimension #rotangle, but…
