    multiply part in assembly design with formula

    Azrael can you be more specific about creating number of items by formula in assembly design with multi instancing tool. I used Define multi instansing tool, but I didn’t found any possibility to import formula. Can you gave me example, how can I import A+B-1 number of instances (A and B are...

    multiply part in assembly design with formula

    Thanks. I totally forgot for Generative shape design, for creating sketcher and using pattern on it. But is this possible, assembly design can’t multiply parts and define their numbers and spacing by formula. I can’t believe that only option is to create in generative shape design some fake...

    multiply part in assembly design with formula

    Thanks, but I know that all. In Define multi instancing I can’t define numbers of instances by formula. I can define them now, but in next case I would not know how many instances will be, because their numbers depend of some dimensions which I would like to bond with formula. Option reuse...

    multiply part in assembly design with formula

    On which manner is possible to multiply part in assembly design, but to define everything with formula (number of parts and spacing between parts) I try it with Multi Instantiation tool, but there is no option to input formula in new instance, or in spacing between parts. There is no problem in...

    round number in formula

    Thenks, it works. Where did you found that functions (ceil, floor etc.) I didn't find in catia help. Is there any function which will round some dimension on 2, 3 or more decimals, for example 5,7712 to round on 2 decimals (5,77) or 3 decimals (5,771) Thanks

    round number in formula

    Is there any option to round number in formula when is calculating some dimension, for example dimension A/dimension B (result is 4,71) and I would like to round that quotient on 5. Thanks.

    spline length

    Thanks Azrael, it works too. Very simple and easy.

    spline length

    Thanks Akesson, it works.

    spline length

    On which manner is possible to measure length of spline (in sketcher) or 3D spline (in Generative shape design). I mean what length of that spline would be if spline is straighten. For example I have some part made by rib command, it is not made in Sheet metal design so I can’t make unfolded...

    Catia V5R14 convert to V5R11

    Thanks Akesson! But what if I want all history (history tree) and if I work with assembly. It’s not possibly that Dassault System didn’t think about V5R11 or other users?

    Catia V5R14 convert to V5R11

    When I was working in Catia V5R11 there was option to convert V5 to V4. Now I’m working in V5R14. How can I convert (save) assembly or part from V5R14 to V5R11? Thanks. PS Before few months I saw some program (converter) for converting for example V5R14 to V5R11, but now I can’t find it. Does...

    Drafting V5 R14, dimension properties

    Is there any possibility in drafting (Catia v5 R14) to define dimension properties (font type, font size, arrows etc.) what will be saved and next time when I start drafting (new drawing), that what was define before, I would like to set as default. Notice - I’m working that on other...

    Drawing Configuration

    Hi! Just do that what did you write (TOOL/OPTIONS/DRAFTING/GENERAL ,Sheet background color, OK, and restart your Catia.

    Thanks itsmyjob!!! It works.

    Part design/drafting û tolerance dimension.

    Catiajim HELP!! I didn’t understand your answer. Because, what can I do if someone send me some part with few tolerance dimensions (I don’t know which dimensions are tolerated), and I have to dimension that part in drafting. I can’t go in part design and check which constraints have tolerance...

    Part design/drafting û tolerance dimension.

    Thanks Itsmyjob, but: In a drafting, when I use generate dimension function, it create just dimension, without tolerance. Perhaps I have to check something in options meny.

    Part design/drafting û tolerance dimension.

    In a part design if I create some tolerance dimension (minimum and maximum tolerance), what I have to do in drafting mode to create that tolerance too. Standard manner of dimensioning and generate dimension option are creating just dimension, without tolerance. How I can create tolerance...
