I'm in the process of building a title block, I'm trying to avoid drawing the whole company logo out by hand. Is there a shorthand way to take this piece of clip art from the word doc and convert it to something that acad can interpret?
Thanks in advance
This is true, but as some of these parts are fairly complex, and I'm running sw2010 off of a computer w/ a Pentium 4 I'd prefer to keep the feature tree as consolidated as possible.
It all depends on what you're doing, we had a 50k machine at the place I was working at a while ago. I believe it was a dimension brand printer. It would take days to do some of the more intricate parts.
The printer itself had a tolerance of.... oh +/- .005 inches I think, maybe less. The neat...
I haven't seen any settings that will do that automatically, I have the 'normal-to' view option hotkeyed to something near my left hand, (I'm right handed). I just use ctrl+d, clicking the scroll wheel on the mouse allows you to pivot the part in any direction you want.
Try out different...
I'm wondering if there is a way to do an extruded cut on a part through specific features only such that it cuts some features and leaves others alone? is this possible?
I have a model with 40+ configurations. I have several layers of sketches that are all tied to a single main feature. None of the sketches are tied to each other. This is verifiable via the parent/child relationships window.
All of the configurations in the configure component window show up...
Does anyone know if there is a command or function that solid works has built in which allows you to replace parts within drawings?
Thanks in advance!!
One of my coworkers is having a curious issue. He is representing stamping into a part by overlaying a sketch with text on an extrusion. He is not performing an extruded cut to reduce the graphically intensive features on the part. However, when he creates a new drawing, the text comes in...
Ideally, If I were a programer at Dassault, I would place as a check box either before or after the space where you fill in the size of the line break, in a conspicuous place, and not as some hidden setting under document properties.
You can change many of the properties of the dimensions...
Actually I figured this out, there was an option buried in the document properties that makes it so that the dimension lines only break around the arrows, which in my opinion is totally useless.
The great people at Dassault do a wonderful job of hiding settings that should be on the most...
