    Relinking Catalog

    Hello, I just moved my catalog to a different location and have about a couple of hundred parts to relink. Is there a way to relink the catalog chapters and subchapters without going through the desk one by one? A macro out there possibly? Thanks.

    Changing Sketch Axis

    Hello, I created a new axis system and would like my sketch H and V direction to be oriented to my new axis system not to the absolute axis. I know you can orient the H and V direction using the "Positioned Sketch" tool, but that approach is a bit tedious for every sketch I shall be making. Is...

    Inner Mold Line

    Hello, I use CATIA V5R20. I was wondering if the inner mold line generation tool was still available in R20. I do not see it in the list of command list that you can add into your toolbar. I am using the Composite Design workbench. Thank you for anyone who can help or give an answer.

    Drafting Parameters

    Hello, I have created a drafting dwg template and created paramaters that are linked to a text box. I can access the parameters from the tree and put in the "user parameters" I wish to appear on the designated text box that I linked it to. My problem is that I have a couple of drawings were I...

    CATIA Drafting Importing a Standard

    Hello, I have created a couple of sheets of drafting material. However, I used CATIA's default ANSI standards. Is there a way to import a set standard I have created into the CATIA Drawing I have already created or will I have to start all over to make sure the standards are put in place? I just...

    Drafting Dimensions

    Hello, I am new on drafting. How do you display the dimensions to show the unit in inch/mm? I want both US and metric units to appear. Thank you.

    Creating A Roll Curve

    Part of the reason I need to do the simulation is to view the movement of the assembly to see if it clears a narrow gap the door must fit through. So it must be simulated how the link moves as it goes through the rail. Also it is a good thing to show to demonstrate how the apparatus functions.

    Creating A Roll Curve

    How would you make an object follow a curvature with a prismatic joint? It only allows for lines to be chosen.

    Creating A Roll Curve

    Hello, I am trying to create a sliding door that rolls on a mechanism with two wheels. I am having trouble creating the kinematics for it. I simplified the modeling, but am unable to get the mechanism to roll along the rail. I have one degree of freedom but do not know what it is. Each wheel...

    Changing Units Quickly

    Hello is there a way in CATIA where you can create a button that allows you to change quickly between metric and US units without having to go through the tools menu and options to change it every time? Thank you.

    Problem Assembly Solid Model to Split Surface

    Hello, I am trying to assemble a door latch into a door panel. The door panel has a slight curvature on it. The latch also has a slight curvature. The cut out of the shape was generated using a split. I cannot use coincidence because it selects the center of the radius of any curvature in the...

    CATIA Inconsistency On Different Computers

    Hello, I am a student designing a product on my laptop using CATIA V5R20. I have also been using a different school computer to do the work while there. I transferred the model to the same computer I use in school. Some of the changes I made show up, but some part modifications I made do not. I...
