transform

Link to feature Somewhat similar to some features from @jnewth (see this thread), these two features will measure the transform between two mate connectors (and store a variable and custom table), and the other will generate a new mate connector from an existing one with a transform variable (or entered values). Unlike the…

Hi all, First I've enjoyed learning OnShape as a complete newb, but I've been beating my head against the wall with what is probably a simple task. I started on a whim for a retro 8-Track tape rack that is supposed to look like a wrapped Christmas package. I've been beating my head against a wall trying to repeat an…

Hi, making a part.. a ring with 3 slits along the edge.. I managed to make 1 slit in the correct position (see top slit in the diagrams) copied and pasted the first slit sketch onto another plane which touches the surface where I want it.. but I can't get it to transform and allow me to rotate/move it lengthwise.. like the…

Hi everybody! I have an issue that I run into every once in a while that I'd like feedback on from the great community here. Sometimes, I find myself wanting to reuse sketches. This could be the shape of a specific punchout for a connector that I might need to use several times in the same part, and/or reuse in other…

-Link to feature up front- Onshape's vanilla transform feature doesn't give you those nice buttery smooth rotation handles to play with like the assembly tabs do, which is a shame because some of the most aesthetically pleasing structures aren't confined to the bounds of XYZ coordinates. I mean look at these crystal…

New Onshape user here. I'm trying to do something that seems like it should be so simple. I have a small assembly that I've just inserted into a new empty assembly. Just getting a feel for things, I see I can freely click to move the sub-assembly in space. So then I want to move it so that a particular vertex in the…

I have a sketch on the x-y plane, and I need to scale it in the y axis only. I know that the transform tool can be used to scale sketch elements, but I don't know how to scale them in one axis only. It scales in x and y simultaneously, which I don't want. What am I missing?

Hey everyone, I'm working on a new custom feature called "Transform sketch". This isn't an activity I frequently need in my own modeling so I wanted to ask for some suggestions before writing much more code. IF this is something you need, please let me know when you would use it, what you use it for, and what controls you…

I have run into a situation where it would be great to scale an object in a way that it would keep the upper and lower faces the same curvature (or the same thickness) but essentially act as a move face —> rotate in the chosen directions. The reason the move face wouldn't work in my case is I want a precise scale change…

When ever I click my sketch and they right click it, it shows "Edit Sketch" at top of menu but there's no "transform" option. I have seen countless videos of using the transform tool but can't figure out how to get it to show up. 

This image shows what happens when extruding (with opExtrude) after a opTransform (in red) versus directly (in blue) . Here's a simple code to reproduce the error : ``` const targetPlane is Plane = evPlane(context, { "face" : definition.target }); const planemap is Transform = transform(sketchPlane, targetPlane);…

Total newbie here. I noticed that with transform when you select xyz you can only select a distance from the old object. Is there any way to select coords? Like to move to the origin you select 0,0,0

Something I've been really struggling with is when importing a model getting the part oriented the way I want it once I import it, I've had some success if there are certain features on some parts that I can rotate about. I've looked up some of the tutorials on how to do it to no avail. Wondering if someone can hop on with…

I'm trying to center a sketch onto a certain part, but it keeps snapping to one place.

FeatureScript 2345; import(path : "onshape/std/common.fs", version : "2345.0"); annotation { "Feature Type Name" : "Pattern Line"} export const patternLine = defineFeature(function(context is Context, id is Id, definition is map) precondition { annotation { "Name" : "Select Line:", "Filter" : EntityType.EDGE,…

Trying to duplicate a user-selected line. No idea why these two Featurescripts attached below aren't working. Out of ideas. @NeilCooke HELP! Also, side questions:1) What's the best way to have the pattern be perpendicular to the line? Currently they're in the same direction. I was hoping to be able to go…
