Hello guys. This is a weird issue. Inside a draft, as far as I make the sketch for a broken view using just lines or arcs, there's no problem if I have to edit that sketch in the future (for example if the part referenced changes) to adjust the broken view. However, if I use a spline instead...

The problem occurs always, no matter if the program creates a mirrored version of the component or it just rotates it. Also, I have been always aware of the mirrored version not existing before. So, as far as I can guess, this can only be a bug, since it's quite weird... Anyone has tested...

Hello guys. I have been using new mirror component feature on ST5 these last weeks. It works quite well, but I have encountered a problem. Once the mirror is done, I can remove a component from it in several ways. Also, I can add components to a previously done mirror with no issues. The...

Redefine links can be quite powerfull, we use it a lot in order to replicate machines and swap elements. Are you sure it can't suit your needs? You can even play with the first letters of the filenames involved as part of the path, which gives more options when replacing. In any case, writing...

Arrays in sketches are not usually a good idea. Having using SW along with SE I can just say that that option should be always avoided. Drawing just a rectangle to cut and then apply the array to the cut operation is a much better option. Working this way, if the number of cuts changes (for...

I am running ST5 with the last MP updated on it. Yes, I can use filters and so, but for measuring I use points most of the time. Although usually SE picks the point closest to the view, that's not always the case, mostly when you have a lot o points behind (at least it seems so). For example...

Hello to all! I was wondering if, when trying to measure or dealing with any aspect which requires geometry selection, is there a way to tell SolidEdge to ignore all geometry which is hidden behind visible faces when in shaded view. Lots of times, within complex assemblies, the selection snaps...

Yes, I know that option. However, my idea was being able to avoid manual filling, although I'm not sure if it's possible. The draft is quite complex, and having to do manual stuff will be a big drawback for my purpose, specially because it will be getting a high number of updates. Thanks in...

Not sure if there's an easy workarround for this... I'm currently trying to use Solidedge for some sort of factory foundations layouts, in order to get a parametric 3D model of all the elements involved. Due to the nature of the work, I have a lot of 3D overlapping in the final assembly (for...

I usually use the "Peers way", however, I can't get intellisketch to work properly. As an example: I can add a line and then constraint it with relationships to some vertex in the assembly, but those vertices won't be available while drawing it. This makes the whole process a bit slower. As a...

Wow, thanks! I feel stupid now... You can't imagine the time I had searching for that. Never imagined I had to go to the context menu for the tab. Much, much thanks!

Hello there. We have recently moved to SE-ST5 from SE20, and we are using now the %{Sheet scale} property text inside the description table of our drafts. This way, the scale shown in that table is linked to the MAIN VIEW scale. Previously, we had a Custom Property called SCALE in each dft...

Much thanks, it was really there. The fact is that we were using an inherited Custom.xml file, in which we configure the holes according to our machinery. Our file lacked any scale info, but I added it with our desired scales and all worked. This same file, used in SE20 and without any scale...

Yes, I know. The problem is that this selection box just shows one choice, which corresponds to the scale automatically selected by the software according the sheet's size. I must type manually the correct value once the view is placed (the numeric field is not visible during view creation). In...

Hello all, I'm new here. I've moved from SE20 to ST5 (yes, a big step) some weeks ago. In SE20, whenever I created a new view in a draft, I was able both to choose among a series of normalized scales (1:1, 1:2, 1:5...) or just type an exact value (0.5, 0.2...). In ST5 (MP3 installed), however...
