    sheet metal - flat patterns

    I followed the help that smcadman posted it works fine for me. A bonus is that it lets you show the bend line sketch as well. SW2005 sp4 Donnie

    sheet metal - flat patterns

    Use the unfold command (collect all bends) instead of unsuppressing the flat pattern to create your flat. Then in the drawing insert the new view. Right click in the drawing view and show tangent edges. Hope its clear.

    PDM\Works Advanced Server ProÆs and ConÆs

    Bradley, We are considering PDMWorks. My issue is with or without advance server. I understand that with advance server you get some sort of web viewing capabilities. How do you currently handle letting other departments view what's in the vault. Thanks, Donnie

    Network Problems

    We have several users that share files across a network. Each user has a working directory. Every one shares files between each other’s working directories as well as a “read only” directory of “released” documents. Our network connection is 100 MB. Our typical assemblies are between 300-900...
