Ability to call arbitary custom subfeatures for a fields of the feature.
Once I've seen a proclamation that Onshape is built in a single command at the time paradigm, but then a feature like Create selection become avaliable. We now can make a parametric measured parameters with all kinds of measuring features and pass them as variables to the built in commands. We have the idea to be able to… -
Timing Belt Pulley (New FeatureScript)
TLDR: Featurescript to create timing belt pulleys. Currently supports GT2-2M and GT2-3M profiles. I'd appreciate feedback on which other profiles to support next. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/55ae3138e0cd7c325239208b/w/c97698491e3111712f79c19b/e/d2190ac9a7351530ae3efe66?renderMode=0&uiState=62f0911532b0144649ff3945… -
Re: switch the original of the pattern and have that change propagate through the pattern
I have a few suggestions. And yes, Onshape makes it relatively easy to replace references in a pattern. However, you'd likely have to do it on a per pattern basis. * You would have more options working in a part studio vs an assembly. Generally, if you don't need to incorporate motion or mates, part studio gives you way… -
Exporting all configurations to STL
Hello, I've seen a few posts asking about this, but they were old and since then OnShape has improved a lot, so I wanted to know whether I'm missing something. I've designed a pipe bracket in OnShape and it has a few configuration variables (pipe diameter, bracket length). I'd like to be able to export all combinations to… -
Re: Information on creating an onshape app
Putting everything in a bom is an easy way to gather things for export. I don't know what you're trying to capture. Which variables do you setup inside onshape and what would you assign in retool? Something about images, each part and assy have thumbnails images captured, it's best to grab those because creating an image… -
Re: Struggling with a custom table of "lengths"
Just a follow up in case something is looking at this and wondering what the solution was... It turned out to be much simpler (as is often the case), I didn't need any composites, etc... The key was realizing you can attach "attributes" to the body created by the feature. So now I just add a "length" (as well as OD, and… -
What happens with patterns and preconditions?
I'm noticing some behavior with @Evan_Reese's 3D Point where a pattern of points silently creates no point when "Location on curve" goes slightly over 1.0, and then any feature (say a plane) which is dependent on that point does weird stuff. Normally if you are entering a value into the feature, the precondition limits the… -
"Lookup Table" Style configurations
Hi! I'm working on creating a library of configurable robotics parts - shafting of various lengths and profiles from vendors being one example of its contents. I'd like to create one configurable part for all the different shaft types, where the end user selects a profile, then length. The tricky part is that different… -
Re: MOTM May 2017 - Contest Thread
I'll play. Here's my set of modular cabinets and drawers. The product has a few requirements: * Store a multitude of parts, ranging from M1.4 screws and washers up to solder rolls and stepper motors * Be totally modular, allowing the addition of drawers and cabinets over time as my needs evolve and/or I learn how to make… -
Re: Roadmap of improvements/updates
@lougallo Thank you, I'll have a look at the improvement list. @bradley_sauln I use Creo every day and sometimes SW. Things I use on a regular base and miss in OS are: Global modeling: * Array of variables more insightful e.g. like Family tables (Creo) or Configs (SW). OS' array of variables are hard to use with big…
