Re: IM DONE
So you say the program is clunky to move objects Makes me think that you’re not talking about one of the digital clay sculpting apps where you are massaging high polygon count meshes. Programs like this are typically used for making some type of a person. For organic shapes. Your statement leads me to believe that you’re… -
Re: In Part/assembly properties allow part number to be a formula
you can do this today very easily with featurescript. I've done something like this before so it renumbered my entire project. Basically for the fields here you jut make variables Here is some base code to get you started: FeatureScript 1403; import(path : "onshape/std/geometry.fs", version : "1403.0"); annotation {… -
Draw for Hire Forum? Modeling Competition to Spec? Modeling Brokerage?
There are some ideas that I don't have time to model but need as components. We need something like Dice supported by Onshape so I could put ideas I want modeled out for people to Bid or compete on? EG: The Ebay of drawing services. On similar sites for software is either somebody posts a prize such as $25 and they get to… -
Re: What's wrong with this opTransform input?
Ah, I didn't realize that faces weren't bodies. I'm still getting a handle on how featurescript stores it's data. This might mean that I am on the wrong track conceptually here though. Ultimately I'm not trying to do anything to the bodies. I want to extract some information about edges, check that they form a specific… -
Re: Including document numbers in dash-number part numbering scheme
@tim_hess427 I have read Watts' Engineering Documentation Control Handbook front to back, and looked at the suggested part numbering in quite some detail as well and how this can be applied at the organisation I work for (we have something similar to what Watts describes). I think it has a lot of merit, but you would still… -
Re: Adding ease of use abilities to the std. sheet metal model feature
Okay, there's a few things to unpack. There is a little blurb on CSV imports buried in the Onshape documentation here. Assuming you've found that already, I think your issue is that you've consistently entered "tableData" instead of "TableData". The difference is that "TableData" is a custom enum or type, as it follows the… -
Re: Props to Philip et al. for the Turbocharge Tips & Tricks Webinar
Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3tqqkcVpt4 Summary: - Turn off "match pixel density on high resolution displays" in your Environment profile settings (My Account > Preferences) - When sketching on the face of an imported part with lots of geometry it is sometimes beneficial to do a 0 distance offset plane and… -
Re: Exponential horn along spline or collection of edges
Was thinking about this last night, can't help but chime in. Seems like there's a trivial solution to this problem. Here's a curve: Counting the inflections, you'll know the order of the curve, or in the cubic spline world the number of curve segments required. I wouldn't use arcs or lines make everything a spline possibly… -
Re: Execute FeatureScript using API and Python
@mark_noyes First of all, thank you for the detailed response. It will take me some time to go over everything but I did not want to wait to ask about the issue you brought up. I have built a FeatureScript that reads data from a .CSV file to generate sketches and loft these as faces. The code does not require any… -
Re: What is the definition of a Bridging Curve or 3D Fit Spline shape?
The intent of the bridging curve is to provide a simple, well behaved curve, between two points, with optional tangency. Specifically the tangent-tangent bridging curve is a cubic B-spline with four control points. As such its curvature will transition nicely along the curve and there will be no kinks or other nastiness…
