    CatiaV5 - squares on a surface

    I'm not sure I follow what you want to achieve, have you tried use "work on support"?

    Angle measurement in Catia

    Knowledgeware is naming for using functions (math), parameters, rules etc.... or maybe better, tools where you drive with math and logic I would try to set up a parameter of angle type and control it with a rule, if the alfa exceeds 90deg the 180-alfa*-1

    Varying Hull Thickness

    As this is a repetitive work you should also consider creating some power copies, a set of functions that you re-instantiate with new reference geometry. In the bottom of the reply window you have the attachments option to either paste a url to the picture or hit the hyper link to "upload your...

    Angle measurement in Catia

    If I'm not mistaken, no ,I believe you will either get the first value or the reverse component value. Why? do you need it? you could use knowledgeware get the wanted behavior

    Varying Hull Thickness

    I guessing that you don't have the composite module to design the hull. Boats are not my area of expertise but I can imagine multiple ways of doing this, variable offset function if you have it or doing multiple offsets and cutting them so you have a transition area that you bridge with sweep...

    CATIA V5 R21 SP4, No Suitable License Error

    I'm guessing that you have a LUM license but from R21 the default license server is Dassaults own license server. If you have a DSLS license then you need to add hostname and port for the license server in a txt file named DSLicSrv (not sure if that is the correct naming) at the location...

    New to Design and looking for direction

    Start with basic Catia to get the modelling basics and the feel for the system but then I believe you need to look into Delmia that is the manufacturing simulation brand... because I have learned (I'm no expert) that for robot cells and similar that you don't use Catia kinematics but rather...

    Multiple points merged into a single point.

    ..or type in the power command "c:Geometric Information", a window will pop up, pick the entity and tell us what it reads in the window

    Dassault shafting users who want to upgrade from V5 to V6!

    I don't see your point, you are entitled to upgrade V5 to latest version and it's still alive. But if you want to move to V6 I believe there is an V5 to V6 program, where you trade in V5 licenses to get V6 licenses to a reduced cost, got the impression that that price is flexible. Regarding the...

    Reference Geometry on the face of a drawing...

    Then don't isolate the link to the reference structure[smile]

    Intersecting 2 tubes

    What I understand is that the change to the new designation is because V5 now is using the same 3d kernel as in V6, so V6 models can be translated with specs to V5 format. I also gathered that there are some news in the classic workbenchs PDG/GSD/ASD due to V6 functionalities becoming available.

    Transfer holes in assy

    If you have one of the tooling workbenches you could just position the bolt and let "drill components" feature do the drilling in all affected parts in the assembly. Another thought, can't you use assembly hole feature?

    Reference Geometry on the face of a drawing...

    What about making two views? one view referring to the flex hose structure and the other view referring to the reference structure. Then superpose one on top of the other and if needed kill the link?? Just thinking out loud

    mz7dyj, it's been out for a while but they dropped the two digit designation so R22 is V5-6R2012 http://www.3ds.com/products/catia/portfolio/catia-v5/latest-release/

    Just checked your model and it's made on R17 level.... don't think you will find anyone here with that level installed. Current release is R22 or as they have chosen to call it now V5-6R2012, my point is that it is 5 releases behind and that an upgrade may be in place.

    CATIA V5R20 - MERGE RIBÆS ENDS

    Mix up, never mind, noticed that it wasn't your post I referred to and that you uploaded same model:)

    CATIA V5R20 - MERGE RIBÆS ENDS

    No ribs is not the way to go, I see it's related to your other tube post. I attached a model with shell based approach. If you can't open it redo it: 1-Create solid bars with Pad feature and those two sketches you have --You should have a T-shaped geometry with circular sections... no hole...

    No, you have a lower release of Catia than I had doing the models.... which release are you on? Sorry to say but I cannot go lower than R19.

    CATIA V5R20 - MERGE RIBÆS ENDS

    Because there are no natural limits on either side of the profile, move the profile inside the model so that there are natural limits along the guide curve in both directions.

    mmm looks like I could upload one file per post... here is the otherhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=0c88bd67-e0b5-4a79-bd9e-49f1f51e585b&file=UnionTrim.CATPart
