Azrael - The two years I have been on V5 have not impressed me, coming from SW anyway. In my business we use alot of the same designs, with minor diff's in design. "Stealing" of whole jobs, or main Assy's is a cost saver that has been baked into our cost as a supplier. Now with those...

Fernando - Is there a way to clear/purge that out to register the UUID that it is using in design mode, and clear out the old vis mode? Azrael - Mind set is fast capable designs, no matter what software (V4,V5, I-Deas, SolidWorks). I just hate using a less capable software than what I came...

Can anyone tell me how to fix a desk command issue that has already been resolved? This also goes with my other post on "Renaming files w/o losing the link?" question/issue. The scenario as it is: Used save mgmnt to copy a 20 part assy to another folder for another job. Renamed the new files...

Speaking of Spaceball issues, is there a setting to save the commands even when switching from Assy to draw to sketch and so on? When I set commands for buttons 1-9 on the Assy side, if any command(s) are different for another mode (draw) then the command automatically chagnes to <Unavailable>.

V8Hemi - phi phi no? What is that? Anywho, the best example I can give would be, say you have an assy of a analog clock for an IP assy. Lets say there are 20 parts that make up the clock assy. That same clock goes into 10 different IP assy's, unchanged as far as the data is concerned. The...

We have run into the same issue with V5 shutting down upon several views with hundreds of parts in an assy. Our systems will crash if we reach about 1.8MB of memory, according to the Task Mgr. The multiple .catdraw was our last method. One last thing to try may be to change the view from...

Thanks for the info from all, but one other question in regard to "send to" opposed to "save mgmnt". Is one any better than the other, or just a matter of preferance?

We steal items from job to job, and then will steal the whole assy for another when done, quite often. Is there anyway that a file, or multiple, can be renamed w/o loosing the links? I know that a right click/properties in the tree will rename the part number and/or definition. I am talking...

A flatfile is like the export feature under CATIA Utilities (V4). You need the CAT Utilities to extract, or import. We change the extension from flatfile to .exp (CATEXP).

Is there a problem with the migrate from V4 under the utilities? We did this on several jobs where we used 75% of the original design, but on the draw side we are running out of memory when the jobs are updated. This only seems to happen on the migrated jobs. New created jobs don't seem to...

The way I have found is to right click the view frame, expand view lebel window, then overload properties. Brings up another window, select items from view to not show, item updates in window list, select item and hit edit button to bring up last window (Editor) and modify the pick box's as...
