"None of the selected entities could be deleted"
In Onshape, I find it very easy and pleasant to create sketches. For me, the fun stops when I have to make modifications to an existing sketch. Whenever I try to delete entities within a non-trivial sketch, I get an error message stating that "None of the selected entities could be deleted." This seems to happen whenever…

Drawing parts to print in two different colors
First... I am new to 3D printing and ultimately 3D drawing... I need to design a ring with degree numbers on it, which I have done, but I want to have the base ring in one color and the dial numbers in a different color when it prints.. I am building/printing on a Lulzbot Pro dual extruder, and Cura as the slicing…

Can one project geometry on to a plane?
I would like to project elements of a sketch on to a plane that is parallel with the sketch plane. I created a plane that is parallel to the sketch plane. I then invoked the "sketch" command to create a new sketch (call it "sketch 2"). I specified the new (offset) plane as the sketch plane for sketch 2. Now I'm stumped.…

For (var i = .. Sketch and Plane and Circular pattern
How could you create a with a "for (var i = ...." a Sketch in each plane. And how Extrude each Sketch. jhljlñkjñl var sketch2 = newSketch(context, id + "sketch2", { "sketchPlane" : qCreatedBy(makeId("Top"), EntityType.FACE) }); for (var i = 0; i < 5; i += 1) { var miPlane is string = "plane" ~ i; var Circle is string =…

Creating Plane through 3 Points in featureScript
Does anyone have any tips for creating a new plane through 3 points. Have not had any luck with all test attempts of cPlane, opPlane, etc. var b = vector(32, 56, 0) * millimeter;var a = vector(88, 0, 0) * millimeter;var c = vector(88,56,50) * millimeter;var _origin = (a+b+c)/3;var _normal = cross((c-a), (b-a));var newplane…

3D sketch possible?
I suspect I cannot do a single 3D master 'General Assembly sketch, e.g. to set out all the important reference points that all the subassemblies' parts need to align to (or avoid), like external mounting bolts, pipes, ventilation slots or casing? Can I do an XZ sketch then a YZ sketch with the XZ showing on its plane for…

Sketch toolbar doesn't show sketch tools
On my (late 2011High Sierra, Safari) MacBook, when I start a new sketch the toolbar initially shows sketch tools as per the Training vid but when I click the Green check in the Select Sketch Plane box the toolbar reverts to modelling tools (extrusion etc). Anyone else seeing this? I'll try with Chrome browser next...

Configuration of a spline
I have the following part, a live edged board, that I am looking to configure in the width and length. I know a sketch must be defined before a configuration will work properly, how is this accomplished? link to doc:…

Sketch scaling
There have been several posts asking about sketch scaling, but most of them have not been touched in a while. I was looking to see if anyone has created a faster work around than starting a new sketch with all of the dimensions based on a variable called "scale factor". As seen in the attached, I have a fairly complex…

Use opFillet for a sketch?
Hi, I'm trying to use opFillet to fillet corners in a sketch but I'm only getting not really helpful errors like FILLET_FAIL_SMOOTH and FILLET_SELECT_EDGES. Here's a current snippet (I've tried many variants) var outerSketch = newSketch(context, id + "outerSketch", { "sketchPlane" : qCreatedBy(makeId("Top"),…
