Re: New Feature: Freeform Spline
v34 Update: Freeform Spline in Polyline mode now supports corner fillets This is super handy for things like pipe routing made of lines and arcs, or cable routing where you want to control the bend radius. It was a lot more work than it sounds like to get it working, but I think it's fairly stable. At this point the… -
Re: Designing a fitting PCB
@"gauthier_östervall" - Your approach seems to have worked out better than I expected - awesome! My "extrude a single surface" comment was trying to suggest just drawing a 2d sketch of a curve starting from a side view to create a close approximation of your part's curvature, then extruding that along with width of the… -
Re: Trying to get SVG of a sketch
Thanks again Tim. I changed the scale of the sheet to something I'm happier width. Maybe you could help with one more thing? I created an exploded view and don't see a way to export it. I'd like to add the exploded view to my web page. If I were to just take a screenshot, the image woud be cluttered by the various OnShape… -
Re: download high-res Onshape official icons
@Evan_Reese All the Part Studio icons, etc are stored in a file called icons.min.svg. You can then view the source of the page and just copy the region (including <symbol> tags) pertaining to the specific icon that you want. You can then replace the <symbol> tags with <svg> tags, keeping the viewbox attribute on the… -

Re: How to keep an openBoM BOM sorted in Onshape Drawing
Just working out how to get a OpenBoM into a drawing. The video on the link above was helpful to get the columns in the right positions. I am wondering now if I can change Quantity to Qty. and Balloon Number to Number or No. ? This would reduce the width of the columns with only small numbers in them to save space. Also… -
Re: How to create different types of a master data by changing the variables
Hi @baumar Sorry I missed your question before. I made a simple example of what I was talking about. It's a simple block with a "master" that has configuration variables for width, length and height. I then created two examples part studios of how it can be used, one derives it in with the width and length fixed so that… -
Re: Image position in sketch
@geoff_josey A few tips that may help with inserting/aligning images. 1) Before importing, crop the image at known points (length, on center). Then first thing on insert is you can dimension the rectangle to that dimension. 2) If possible it would best to rotate the image to be 'true' before inserting. 3) On image inserts,… -
Selecting floor of a cavity as sketch plane
I've been muddling through the design of a storage rack for a set of Imperial hex drivers and came across a problem, or perhaps a learning opportunity. I created rectangular cavities (of varying width and depth) for each of the drivers in a rectangular block, filleted the the side walls of each cavity and wanted to create… -
How to create a ring (jewelry) with a varying cross-sectional profile (varying height and/or width)
I'm new to CAD/OnShape, trying to do as stated in the title. I am not sure if there is a standard way of designing a shape like this, but ideally I'd like to specify multiple profiles around the band of the ring (say, at 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees) to sweep between (interpolating the shape of the resulting solid between…
