How to draw/extrude a "line" arrow
What is the simplest way to draw a "line" arrow? One that looks like —>. With a > head rather than a triangle head. I'm doing some backlit street number shadow boxes and logically want to Extrude > Remove the numbers and arrows. See signs | question. Of course, I could laboriously sketch the full outline of the arrow but…

How to remove several constraints at a time?
I often want to revisit a previous design and make small changes, tune the dimensions, etc. But every time I do that, it ends up over constraining the sketch, or some similar issue. How can I remove all (or several selected) constraints in a sketch, all in one go? As opposed to clicking every single one and do it…

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…

I was creating something like a pipeline/tube, and at some point I started to run into problems with my sketch, as ONSHAPE reported me that it could not be solved. However, I was quite confident about my constraints. After investigating, I…

when a sketch is not fully defined, is there a way to change the highlight from blue
I have a difficult time discerning blue from black in the user interface. It would be nice to be able to have those issues highlighted in an easier color.

Help Regarding Feature Creation in OnShape
I am trying to replicate a feature from this YouTube video at the 55:07 timestamp- The problem I encountered is that the creator is using PTC Creo and using the Face Blend feature. I was unable to match a same feature on onshape so I used the loft feature and created splines as guide curves in order to create the feature.…

Can I add notes to a sketch within a part studio
I know we can add comments, but is there way to add notes to a sketch itself, similar to when doing 2D drawings. Example: Say I add some drawing lines for a component I want to use, a simple outline of the part to show size and location. It would be nice to be able to point to it with a note that contains the parts…

How to make cutouts on sphere follow the curve?
Hi everyone, I'm trying to make a model of a smooth tennis ball, but I have no idea how to make the curved grooves on it. Is there some way to sketch out the curve and project it onto the sphere, then sweep/extrude out the cutout? Thank you.

I would like to be able to select N closed and open chains of sketch entities and with a provided tolerance tesselate them into N piecewise polylines and then either print them to the console or copy them to the clipboard. Is…
