I using the drawing mode to convert some annotations made with the Function, Tolerancing and Annotations applications into a drawing. The plane is converting clearly and the annotations displayed are correct, but some of the annotations have a big read X accross them. I can delete the X but I...
I have a Dell 2000 FP (Analog) with ATI Fire GL 8800 128 MB Video Accelerator. I have 65 GB on my hard drive. I can import other IGES, STL, Parasolid, and STEP files. I can also import these but I am unable to make them solid bodies, which is what I need in order to make a section view in a...
I am using SolidWorks 2005 SP01.1. The STL file is 5.439 MB and the IGES file is 2.181 MB. I am using Windows 2000 Professional. I have a 2.20 GHz Intel XEO processor with 1.048 GB of RAM and 65 GB of storage.
I have imported the file as an stl. It is one complete surface. The knit surface option does not work because it cannot knit only one surface. Is there another way to convert a surface to a solid? I tried importing the file as a solid body but SW just crashes.
Its ring that is about 120" in dia. and 3" tall. Its thickness varies from .12" to .5". The cross section is similar to an F.
Is there a way to fill the empty geometry or convert it to a solid?
I created a parasolid and then I imported it. Then I tried to make a drawing from that part and I am still unable to make a dimension. I tried to make a section view and I got a warning saying:
A drawing view with an empty model cannot be sectioned.
If I have a complex shape is there a way...
I have a model in CATIA with 600 holes that are only specified with points. I made it an IGES file to import into SolidWorks. I was able to convert model with the points into SW. I created a SW Part that I want to import into a drawing. I was able to import the part, but only the front view...
I have a file that has several Annotations and Dimensions on a Solid Model. They were put there using the Functional, Tolerancing, and Annotation application. Whenever I try to manipulate the model the annotations start to display entire planes of color that block my view from the part. If...
