How to link part marking with part revision property.
I currently use the part revision property in my export rules to automatically include the part revision in the name of my exported files. I would like to be able to use the part revision property to drive part markings in a part studio. The part markings are debossed on the parts directly. Currently, I make a variable… -
Re: Improvements to Onshape - February 2nd, 2024
hi john_mcclary, If a variable is being used in a Part Studio and is renamed via the Variable Table, the rename would propagate through the features using it. Now this is also true if the variable is created in a Variable Studio and Insert into all Part Studios and Assemblies is enabled. ex. * Create Variable Studio *… -
What are Best Practices, regarding Variable Table vs Variable Studio ?

Re: What is the "proper" way to design a multi piece design with intertwined constraints
Hi Shaolo, Let me start by saying that I 100% agree with jnewth. In your case, definitely use one part studio & create multiple parts (and then make configurations of those parts ) As a workflow - I like to create a folder (and name it variables) at the start of the feature tree . Then place all variables in this folder… -
Update all references to latest versions excludes derive features and variable studios...
I have a "global" document, which contains a master layout and global variables. I have a multitude of "assembly" documents which use the onshape derive feature to import sketches and shapes from the global document, and also import the global variables. I also have a "main" document which brings together all the assembly… -
Can Custom Properties set by FeatureScript be numbers?
I have a "Quantity" custom property that populates a field in our drawings to indicate how many panels of a certain size need to be fabricated. I would like to drive that "Quantity" property with a variable from a variable studio - however when I set up my FeatureScript to assign the variable I keep getting this error… -
Changing variable value breaks sketches inconsistently
Hi, In modeling a parametric box design, I encountered some weirdness when working with variables to control the boxes dimensions. Basically, when I change a parameter / variable like the box height, it often breaks one of the sketches. However, if I go into the affected sketch and do a slight change, like adding 0.1mm to… -
Re: Changing configuration of individual parts in an assembly linear pattern?
Thank you very much for the reply. I have managed to do what you suggested in your first paragraph and inserted new instances of parts into the assembly and then configured them individually (annoyingly there does not appear to be a way to rename each part in the assembly without having the name change for all of them,…
