Laser Joint updated to V4.0: Fixed width pins, corner overcut fillets, and pin fillets!
Direct link to the new version here. Instead of calculating equal pin/gap dimensions, there is now an option to define a specific pin width. This option is only available when in the single joint operation mode. In addition to the option to chamfer convex pin edges to aid insertion, these features can now alternatively be… -
Rectangle Tool - what construction geometry should Onshape provide?
I was disappointed "back in the day" when Solidworks chose to add diagonal construction lines as an option. Of the three possibilities I can think of, it's the least useful. One of the other two possibilities has recently been added to Sldwks (about a decade late, to my way of thinking): a full width construction line in… -
Re: Return within drawing table cell ?
Ahh... Looking at it further, you have to force some text wrapping in the cell before this will work. I found that I needed at least 3 lines that were text wrapped before I could add the carriage return. It might be easier to just paste the text into the cell like @john_mcclary previously suggested. If you have the… -
Re: Is it possible to set a minimum & maximum value for a sketch dimension ?
Thank you guys ! Thanks for your first link Bruce. It lead me to Brian Brady's comment: brian_brady said:You can also nest conditionals by placing another complete conditional statement in either the true or false positions. I suggest using parentheses around the second statement (may even be necessary) for readability.… -
Re: Scale of drawings
For everyone's information, we haven't yet implemented the ability to have a default scale for a model on a sheet, but we will eventually. After that, new views will default to that scale (unless they're some form of child view whose scale is based on a parent view), and any views whose scale is different from the default… -

You can change the Width, Height, Depth, and Thickness variables to adjust the overall dimensions or the thickness of the wood. If you… -

Re: New Custom Feature: Pipe Centerline
@NeilCooke Here's a link to a document which adds a tubular offset to an edge, then splits the adjoining surfaces, creates a lofted blend between them and replaces that corner with the blend. This demo doesn't do anything 'nice' with the smoothness of the curves, so the resultant surface is likely very heavy (plus there… -

Re: burning lines
Lines have no thickness, extrude the rectangle first, then remove lines using extrude, thin, remove and set the thickness to your kerf width. That will model it up in 3d for you and show on drawings. But this may not create a correct dxf for a laser cutter if you just wanting slit lines. You can export your sketch to dxf…
