Well, I'm talking about 2 parts in an assy. Part A is a 1x1 extruded square with a .25 fillet edge. Part B is an extruded circle. I want the Part B circle to remain tangent & be able to move (in assy) along Part A fillet edge & the flat surface of the square. I can only mate to either the flat...

yes. that is what I want to do. I want to mate an object tangent to those 2 surfaces but SW only allows to mate tangent to one or the other. The only way to make it work is to create a cut or extrude using a fit spline, which combines those 2 surfaces. I was hoping there was an easier way to...

If I have a square with a filleted edge, what options are there in assy to have something mated tanget to the fillet edge & the flat surface? The only way I found to be able to do this is to create a cut or extrude for those 2 surfaces using fit spline. Is there another way to accomplish this...

Thanks for the info. There is no exposure to foreign solvents. Your generous info on the mold parameter options will be forwarded to my molder to see if there are any improvements they can provide. I'll check into the med flow material too. Thanks

Wall thickness is uniform. Flow path length is about 7". There is an open void in the middle & at the corners of that area is where we found failure with impact. I added some ribs to strengthen those areas to avoid breaking again. I think concern now is the wall thickness areas being too thin...

Currently using Lexan 223R-701 on a product with .080" wall. Looking for a material with similar mold parameters that would be stronger & not fail upon impact. Any suggestions or contact info of vendors that you can supply me. Thanks

I found my problem. What happened was the parts/assy SW was trying to find where also in other sub assys in my main assy. I took the parts out of the main assy but not out of the sub assys. Now that I removed from the sub assys, it fixed the problem. thanks to all

I have an assy & some parts were deleted from the assy. The parts may have been deleted from windows explorer but are still associated with the assy. The parts are not in the assy but when I open the assy it SW states it can not find the part, do I want to search for it myself. I can not...

Scru, Yes, you can do it both ways. I tried it your way first but didn't understand that I could just type in the description. I thought I had to pick one of the pull down options only. I just went into the part after I did the 'save as' & saw how it added the description. So now I understand...

The "save as" option is what I was looking for. I wanted to update the description of the part so it would show in my bom. Thanks to all for the answers.

Created a new part. There is file name, file type & description. I did not add a description when I first created the part but now want to add one. How can I do that? SW2007 SP2.2 Thanks

Yes, I've noticed your solution too Handleman. When you hide the parts it automatically grays them out in the bom contents. I can deal with going in & removing the parts from the bom again if they come back but it is a pain when I have to go to each view to re-hide the parts if they appear...

No configs for assy. But if I hide a part in the dwg, why does it sometimes reappear in the dwg & I have to hide it again? I understand what you are saying about the bom but the part should still remain hidden in the dwg. Sometimes it stays hidden & other times it does not. I don't want to...

SW2007 sp2.2 I create a dwg & bom of an assy. Within the dwg there are some assy parts I do not want on the bom or shown. I hide these parts & delete the row in the bom chart. Sometimes when I go back into the dwg, the parts are not hidden & bom has them added again. I then hide & remove from...

I'm on sp0.0 & it is crashing on me all the time. Just playing around with a square protrusion & some fillets & it crashes. Going to update to new sp, hope it helps.

Sorry, my bad. I was able to see 9 in the recently opened files.

In sw2008 you can hit the "R" key & it will pop up your recent files opened. It shows 3. Is there a way to increase that number? Thanks Rem

Great ideas, thanks. I was also thinking of attaching numbers in a different layer so I can turn them on/off

SW2007 sp2.2 Is there a way to assign numbers to the dims of a dwg for inspection purposes? For example, you have a detailed dwg, our qc guy writes numbers next to each dim in order to reference to his report. I would like for SW to automatically assign those numbers & place them next to the...
