    yellow gear vs green gear

    Hi, Does anyone know the difference between the yellow and green gear part bodies? better yet, does anyone have a chart that shows what every different type/color gear represents? thanks in advance. cheers...

    save all catparts under a product into a new folder

    Hi, Is there a way to make a duplicate of all the catparts under a huge product without having to save them one by one, espcially if these files are located under various folders and drives. I have a product with tons of catparts, and when someone ask for a copy of it, it's too big to turn it...

    deleting layout from part tree

    solid7, you assumed right, this is the case of importing .dxf file, after importing .dxf, this blank layout sheet was created and i can't delete it. i only have 1 sheet. so i can remove it? thanks...

    deleting layout from part tree

    hi, how can you delete the layout-->sheet 1 from the part tree. the delete option is available but it tells to reconsider the operation since it cannot be deleted. I don't even know how i added the layout sheet in the first place. Does anyone know how to remove it from the tree? thanks

    changing the X,Y,Z plane of existing catpart

    Hi, I have a part and its absolute origin (X,Y,Z planes) is not where I want it to be, can I change the origin of the catpart without re-creating the part from scratch? thanks,

    import .dwg into catpart or catprod

    just out of curiosity, is there any other way to import these 2D model into 3D? changing the file name to fool catia seems kinda silly..:) but it works...

    import .dwg into catpart or catprod

    Hi, I have a .dwg file created by Autocad, and I want to import this into my Catpart, either as a sketch or as a 3d lines. is this possible? thanks

    remove point at the end of curve/line for better screenshot

    Hi, In the part design bench or other bench (just not in sketch mode) I noticed that at the end of every line and curve, there are points. These points are part of the line/curve and can't be deleted nor hidden without affecting the line/curve. Is there a way to remove these points or just...

    change origin

    Hi, Is it possible to change the origin of the part after the part has been created? I was wondering if i can make all parts to have the same origin in an assembly. thank you

    creating a symmetry

    hi, How can i create a symmetry of a part that has 100 part bodies, and I don't want to creat a symmetry of 100 part bodies..is there a way to create a symmetry of the CatPart without creating symmetries of individual part bodies in a part? perhaps in an assembly? except, the symmetry function...

    show/hide

    hi, is there a way to select everything under a part or a product so that even though i've hidden a only line which belongs to a sketch, i can just select everything under a part and show it, rather find that specific line in a sketch from the tree. sometimes, i'll hide part bodies simply by...

    red squiggly line under annotation

    Hi, Why do i get a red squiggly line under my annotation in assembly design?? can i get rid of them, i want to take a screen capture and those lines make them look bad. thanks,

    finding parts in desk

    hi, I relocated many of my parts that are used in a CATProduct and they can't be located when the product is opened. Is there a way to specify a root directory to re-link the parts rather than manually finding them? thank you,

    font size change

    Hi, how do you change the font size of the constraint dimensinos? the fonts get bigger when you zoom out and smaller as you zoom in, but they get too small when you zoom in and can't see the number in a presentation after capturing it. thanks

    symmetry in assembly

    hi, It seems like only the partbody of the part can be mirrored using the symmetry function in assembly. I have many part bodies in a part and want to mirror the whole part in assembly, is there a way to use the symmetry function to mirror every partbody of the part under product? one more...
