    Unable to use "Offset Entities" on Splines and "Curve through free points"

    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!

    Unable to use "Offset Entities" on Splines and "Curve through free points"

    The solidWorks file of the simple spline that I either cant offset (unless perhaps then offsetting it directly onto another plane)http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9b2e3f8b-0363-4e47-b358-20beb5c7ecf3&file=OffsetTestForEngTips2.SLDPRT

    Unable to use "Offset Entities" on Splines and "Curve through free points"

    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...

    Unable to use "Offset Entities" on Splines and "Curve through free points"

    Thanks for the two responses. I made a sample sketch (attached here) as asked for by CorBlimeyLimey and when doing that I finally succeeded, by "MistakeEntities" but accidentily hit the "Offset entities"-button instead. So… success came when making the spline (or curve through free points) on...

    Unable to use "Offset Entities" on Splines and "Curve through free points"

    Dear Fellas I seem unable to use the “Offset Entities”- tool (in sketch mode) on: * 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...

    Equations in SW 2003

    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...

    Equations in SW 2003

    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...
