Airfoil twist
I am building an f1 car and I am trying to make a realistic rear wing. I used a sweep to make the wing curl down at the edge like the 2022-2025 cars have. But I couldn't find a way to make the sweep variable, so the corners ended up having an angle of attack way to big. I then used a loft for the lower element which worked…

similar to solidworks, when you move the bar down to lock items in the tree.

Hyperbolic parametric curve failing to regenerate
I'm trying to create a hyperbolic curve, using the parametric curve featurescript by mahir (https://cad.onshape.com/documents/578ff8b3e4b0e65410fcfda3/v/9e1cf9e0369f819849e1e2fd/e/46b903b8bff0b36927baa2a6?renderMode=0&uiState=6741ded4b653d019b0422d48) and working off the derivation from a video by rad-head (…

Best way to warn user of something without overriding active info messages?
I've got a feature that is reporting some useful info most of the time using reportFeatureInfo(). There are some cases where I'd like to let the user know something isn't quite right, without totally ending the feature and replacing that message. I'd like to turn the feature red and let the user see a message on mouseover…

Gridfinity generator with bins that fit filler base space
I found this pretty awesome Gridfinity Generator https://cad.onshape.com/documents/f307f8af01083b99b55bbcf9/w/e62d7ab7a660a796bb9461a7/e/6f4023e4bb25eda38c5e4f2d and found that adding filler to the base will add a new section for a bin to be slotted in. I am wondering if it's possible to use this generator to also create…

Student Progress on Assignments
I recently started using OnShape's Intro to CAD curriculum. I created classes, invited students and loaded lesson "1.1 Jumping Into Onshape". As several of my students have finished tagging items in the scavenger hunt, they have found that they cannot "submit". They only have a share button. Somehow they are copying the…

Is it possible to disable the automatic "suggestions" for the merge scope of a hole?
When I add a hole, OnShape will auto-populate the merge scope of that hole. Sometimes this is useful, other times it extends the merge of the hole well beyond what I want it to be, which can be frustrating to have to delete multiple items from the merge scope list when I just want the hole to go all the way through one or…

Setting up multiple cabinets for CNC
Hi, I have modeled up a bathroom vanity I need to make three of on a CNC. I am using the auto layout feature to put them on the sheet goods and make a drawing. What is the best workflow to put all three vanities on as few sheets as possible? Since Auto Layout only works in part studio, I believe I need to insert three…

Why does my onshape document sometimes show only the highlights
See the pictures: Sometimes when I drag and zoom out, Onshape does this for like 10 seconds, highlighting the outline of the document. I am on a Macbook Air M2 2022 on Google Chrome with 8GB ram. Anyone know what to do???Thanks so much!

Export Rules for parts in an assembly?
I've created export rules so that a part would be exported with ${partNumber} ${description}, but it does not seem to work if you export the tab of an assembly. It only applies to the top level of the assembly, not the parts themselves. If someone outside of the company downloads a specific file, the export rules also…

Why wrap a Sketch face push 2 others wrapped Sketch face? (sorry for this poor description...)
Hello everyone, I have a problem but I don't know how to describe it precisely. In this image, I wrapped 2 faces of Sketch, I want them in the place of the 2 orange box but as you can see, the are shifted from. So I added an another box to their left and their position changed. You can see that the end of the two…

Non-Circular Detail View doesn't 'move' with main drawing view when model is updated
I've been using more non-circular shapes for detail views due to product geometry. When a circle is used for the view, it is 'attached' to a specific point in the main view and thus will move when the model is changed and the specified attachment point moves. However, when using anything other than the circle border shape,…

How to pass form data body in Onshape API endpoint using python?
Hi! I am trying to use this endpoint in python, but every time I get the 400 status code. I suspect the problem is that I am sending the request body incorrectly.

Replicate breaking mates
Hey, So I've built some assemblies and they work fine. The parts have zero freedom in the assembly and are all located as I want them to. Then I put that assembly into a higher assembly and it works, it looks great, everything in the initial instance is in the right place but then I replicate it and the replications have…

Exploded view of Standard Content ?
If I have an assembly of parts that are fastened with Standard Content fasteners, is there a way to create an exploded view? It seems like something very generally useful, but I can't find any way to do it. It would be nice, for example, to create a drawing showing how the final pieces (parts and fasteners) are put…

How to merge multiple splines and lines
Hi guys! I've traced a image with spline and line tools. They all close together and I can easily extrude as need. My problem is that i would like to create a border / off-set into the current model. To do this I must merge/join all the lines into one single shape - how can i do this when I've used both lines and splines?…

Internal involute spline
I've been struggling with this for months. I have had a gear with internal involute spline made from an Onshape model. This gear must slip over a splined motor shaft. Alas, this gear does not fit - not even close. The motor shaft is an involute spline which comes with a detailed specification (ANSI B92.2M, 24 teeth, 1.0…

Export rule drawing reference showing error?
I'm trying to add an export rule for a drawing so that the title shows the part number of the part that is in the drawing (not the drawing part number).
