Thanks for your comment. Since you can offset and I cant I simply gonna assume there is a freak thing in, maybe not my version, but my installation of SW 2003. I will settle with that I know can offset if I do it by ofsetting on another plane.
Thanks again for your input!

Thank you for your comment MartinShane, ok. you might be on to something, and your reasoning might be spot on however I am not sure if that is the full problem since I cant even offset the simplest possible spline, just three point making an arc and no inflection point (inflection point = where...

So… success came when making the spline (or curve through free points) on...
Dear Fellas

* Spline
* Curves created by importing a set of coordinates (in a .txt-file) via “Curve through free points…” (under “Curve” under “Insert”) and then using the “Convert Entities” to get them onto the actual...
Ok. thanks, with VBA-installation you mean Visual Basic-instalation!? Is this a part of windows (I run Windows 7). It might seems like a simple thing that I shuould know but...How do you uninstall and reinstall it again. In the "Uninstall" in the windows "Control panel" I have a few programs...
Hello Febs,
Funny I just become a member on this forum and my first question that intended to ask was exactly this one! My post is:
I have a problem with the equation function in SolidWorks, the problem is simply that I cannot create any equation driven dimension!
I can open the equation tool...
