Re: Service Provider Concerns?
There are (roughly) three phases to 'loading' 1. The time taken to present the page when you first go to sign in. 2. The time taken to present the 'modeling' page containing your part studios & assemblies after you click to open a new document (or create a new one) 3. The time taken to present a final workable model you… -
Re: Is There a Way To 'Roll Back' an Assembly?
I am not exactly sure what you're trying to do - BUT . . . . If you have a complex assembly and you're trying to troubleshoot an overly complex mating strategy - here are some suggestions. 1) Assembly figs would likely not be of much help. Figs have been in other products for a while and no one uses them to troubleshoot… -
Re: A company to transition from Solidworks
Well speaking as a Scot I make no comments :smiley: I'll gently ignore all the SolidWorks is dead/catching up with Onshape comments - whenever I run into the Onshape folks we generally have a bit of banter on the subject. They know the issues ::smile: As for XDesign, well, it is out there. I have access to it, and that is… -
Re: Part transparency.
@alessandro_cavoli Thank you for raising this point. It is an example of UI design intent. I understand the difficulty during learning the interface. If one cannot figure out how to do something it is frustrating. On the flip side, for professional use, the UI should be quick and uncluttered. So what is more important,… -
Re: Having trouble with a loft/sweep function and cannot figure it out.
Guides need to exactly touch the profiles that are being used and are only done locally. This loft has two issues: 1) The guide (sketch 18) doesn't touch the end profile (sketch 16) correctly. I updated sketch 16 by removing the two external points I then saw that the vertical line was off of the face of the edge. I had to… -
Migrating projects from SolidWorks to Onshape: what gets lost and needs fixing by hand
I'm trying to move a colleague's project from his years of work based on a single private copy of Solidworks to Onshape so that the rest of the team can engage with it. He gave me a dump of 120 sldprt and sldasm files in a zip file. Eventually I got it all imported into Onshape, subject to a few issues which I got… -
Re: FeatureScript: Version control identification
So we run and release FS within our Enterprise. We have an admin who releases the FS and that release will be the version that is then pushed to the Enterprise toolbar. So there four scenarios in which this need came about: 1. If there is an issue with a FS, I am contacted and there times where I am given view only access… -
Re: Can someone make / Teach me how to make this simple script?
Hi @john_mcclary Sorry you're having trouble! More FeatureScript training is definitely on our radar, and I hope I can help you as best I can. I will lay out the way I would approach this feature in this post. Depending on how you like to learn, you may want to follow along and build your own feature from scratch, but if… -
Re: How can I split a part by multiple surfaces?
I don't think this will work for me. The problem is that I cannot assume anything about the surrounding geometry, since this is going in a custom feature. In any specific case their may be no direct path to the "outside" from the cut planes. I was thinking about this last night and my plan is as follows:* Perform a… -
Re: Why are instanced sketches not included in the assembly's BOM?
@matthew_stacy, @konstantin_shiriazdanov My rationale for wanting to add non-geometrical items to my assy BOM was to record the need for dispensable consumables critical to the assemblies function. I was modeling an outdoor wood product and during the design I wanted to record the use of a specific wood preservative and…
