Re: Why isn't the coincident constraint working right?
Okay, here we go, trust me - I'm a pilot. I thinks we see different issues here happening at the same time: You have generally redundant vertical and horizontal constraints (two within the sketch, one to a point in sketch 3), driving the sketch to the edge of overconstraination. You constrained the lower spline handle to… -
Re: building a complex sheet metal part in context....
Thank you....certainly is a lot going on and it is a learning experience.....I have always ( since 1975) designed "top down" (in context) as far as I am concerned it is the only way to design....that being said this design is pretty much finished in concept and is more complex that my last failed design because of the… -
Re: Mate overdefines assembly
Besides not being editable, this file does unfortunately not reveal much of your intent. You'd at least need some fixing points, bearings etc.. Maybe you should make a logical design before trying to throw constrains at it. It might then even explain itself. Anyway, watch for your AOI, the effect of the wing downwash on… -
How do I make the IsNonNegativeInteger precondition commit?
Hi, I'm learning FeatureScript and CAD generally so perhaps I'm trying to do too much, but I'm comfortable with the basics of CAD and have some competent (in my view!) drawings. I want to add the ability to create a helical gear and believe FeatureScript is the best way do so. I've completed the tutorials, but as soon as I… -
Re: How to make a slotted hole
@lana I don't imagine that additive tools are on that same roadmap, or opening up the general sheet metal engine to support "non-traditional" sheet metal geometry like pockets or kerf cuts, are they? As a sheet goods manufacturer our company uses the sheet metal tools to do a lot of non-sheet metal things which is why I'm… -
Re: Make extrude removal stop before walls get too thin while maintaining a consistent cross section
One challenge is that you're using the Profile Generator which creates very complex curves which are very hard to work with. I would highly recommend trying the HAVF feature: https://forum.onshape.com/discussion/24730/new-custom-feature-havf-profiles-standard-airfoil-profiles For now, I cleaned up the curve you created… -
Fully customizable Gridfinity Bin & Base Generator - Forstner Bit Storage. How do I use this?
In reference to the following document: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/3eb9c836be4ee42c93fde7b6/w/2f2d74bb41394f62c08397b1/e/0d55191bf3b973ed22736f78 I'm a complete newbie to Onshape. Having literally just discovered it 4 days ago and coming from Sketchup (most recently). What brought me here was the my desire to… -
Error: Custom Bearing did not regenerate properly
Hi all, I'm working on a tool that will allow me to make custom 3d printed bearings and insert them in part studios, and I'm attempting to script this in featurescript. However, I'm having trouble with inserting the part in a new part studio at a mate connector that I select. It gives me the error "Error Regenerating."… -
Re: Improvements to Onshape - August 1st, 2018
A lot of those "really smart people" among others of course came from building Solidworks back in 1995 (and later years) What's interesting is back in 1995, SW UI and workflows echoed the Windows UI that most everyone was already accustomed to then as Windows was becoming mainstream upon release. Now fast forward 20+… -
opFillet availability in sketches?
I saw in a post a couple of years old, that opFillet is not available in sketches. Has that changed in the last two years? I'm working on a project to generate digital wood joints, and many joints consist of two parts joined with complementary geometry. Frequently, I use the same sketch to generate the complementary…
