    Catia V5R20 - Multi-Section Solid Definition

    When i teach MSS, I always show this thing with replacing the closing point. The closing point in a sketch is where you start drawing your profile, and sincne we usually sketch more or less in the same manner this is very seldom a problem. But see what happens when a left-handed person sketch...

    Catia V5 drafting view error

    We've seen it when sectioning very large assemblies and where there is one part covering everything. Also had problems sectioning a view with a complex surface model within. I'm not sure where the problem is but probably Catia memeory management and/or Windows memory limitation. There's three...

    Progress bar in VBA

    [curse] I've spent the last three hours trying to figure out how to get a progress bar while updating the sheets of a drawing and I can't find a word about it, neither in CATIA VBA nor in VBA documentation. Any ideas? Regards Ola

    Catsettings files

    ...directory, you can add a line in your environment file so Catia will read the backup directory first, then your user directory. When later the S**T hits the fan, you jjust delete the user catsettings directory and everything is back to whatever you consider normal ;-) The file you need to...

    Merging parts from multiple models into one part

    Up to R12 you may use the copy-and-paste trick with the exception that you use Paste Special and select As Result (I think). This will copy the bodies in their right location to the Part. The one problem I found is that if a part is used more than once only the last selected will contribute to...

    Text on curved surface

    He want the text to stick out from the bell radially and then 3D print it. I guess it's a x-mas present... The soultion for now is to create the text as a pad up to surface (bell) ant then split it with an offset surface from the bell. Looks rather pretty but not exactly what he wanted. /Ola

    Which release to install next

    I wouldn't recommend anyone to work on anything less than sp3. I also got the message from a very god source that anything less than sp5 on R11 shouldn't be used. Do install R11sp5 a.s.a.p. and wait for at least sp3 for R12 before doing any serious work on it. /Ola

    Local zone in CATIA

    Hi Pechkit, I've done more or less the same with a building. First of all, I've modelled each floor in a separate body in one part. I created two planes in each direction and use parameters to constrol them. Then I've created splits at each plane in each body using parameters to control their...

    Accessing V5 Files Over a Network

    Hi, To start from the bottom, yes you can see the correct assembly in preview because that information is stored within the assembly file. The other two questions is actually the same problem. In tools-option-general-document, you can tell Catia where to look for files. In an assembly, the path...

    ASSEMBLY AND DRAFTING

    The trouble with that methodology is that parts that hide other parts will still hide those parts even if they are deactivated in Overload Properties. Another way of doing it is to select the ISO view in drafting, in assembly multiselect the parts you want to see in the tree before clicking the...
