I usually save downloaded purchased part assemblies as parts. Just makes for less files and overhead. There are some cases where I need to preserve a purchased part as an assembly because it either moves or needs to have configs. But that is rare in my case. If I'm never going to take the thing...

I have seen this once before but, as usual, I had responsibility to get real work done and just did what I had to without digging into it. If I delete the pattern and start it again, I get the same 10x factor. If this is a bug, this sloppiness is getting scary. If a feature fails or system...

SW09 SP3.0 I patterned an assembly feature cut with .5" spacing. So far so good. I adjusted some dimensions on the cut and/or number of instances on the pattern and now the pattern spacing jumps 10x to 5". The dimension still says .5" but the distance between centers measures a full 5". So the...

Where can I get more info on how to insert eDrawings in Powerpoint? I'm having no luck following the Help in eDrawings 2009. For example, there is no "Properties" selection when I right click the eDrawing object that I inserted.

I use the Navigator with 2009. I also have extensive hot keys. Depending on what my task is (ie. sketching & detailing) I may not touch the Navigator at all. If I'm mating or tweaking models in an assembly, I may never take my hand off the Navigator. My point is, these devices simply give you an...

That works. Thanks.

SW 2009 SP1.0 coming from SW 2007. When double clicking a dimension while editing sketch, the classic "Modify" window appears (the one with the thumbwheel and spinbox). But upon exiting the sketch (edit part mode), double-clicking a dimension gives me only the text box to modify the value. The...

Template file is attached. Incidentally, you'll also notice the same behavior for the "volume" and "weight" properties. These properties are less of an issue than material. Same behavior whether I select a model material or leave it as <not specified>. 2007 SP 4.0 x64...

EEnd, I tried clearing it out, adding a space, and typing in text. All three methods revert back to "SW-Material@Part1.SLDPRT". Yes, setting the material in configuration specific properties is the work-around. But material is not usually config specific in my case. Most times I want material...

I recently upgraded from SW 2005 to 2007. I am experiencing the same problem as the OP. I read the replies but I'm still confused. I'm using the same part template from 2005 in 2007. The "material" custom property by default is "SW-Material@Part1.SLDPRT". In 2005, I could overwrite this and...

Re: ACAD... I have a few photo-etched screens containing hundreds of holes that I draw in 2d ACAD. I have to show the entire pattern on the drawing. For my SW assembly model, I just create a simple shape and apply a "close enough" texture for visual purposes. In PDM, I check the ACAD drawing...

My guess is your sketch is an open sketch so the "Thin Feature" box is checked by default and adding material to the outside of the sketch. Does the feature say "Revolved-Thin" after you create it?

Ok. Yes, someone added features after the body before fixing the import error.

According to help: "The Import Diagnosis PropertyManager appears when you import a file, right-click the imported body, and select Diagnosis. " I do not get "diagnosis" in the menu. I've tried right-clicking the body in the graphics window & the feature tree. No luck. Is this "diagnosis"...

Our comapny logo uses a postscript font (Ronda). This font works ok in Office programs but doesn't appear in SW2005. Any way to get postscript to work with SW?

Funny, I thought I able to do this before. I'm trying right now BUT it only lets me select one file at a time. I think I'm missing something very obvious here... I doesn't group-select in either the stand-alone or the SW client. Is there a toggle somewhere that turns this function on or off...

"now what does work is that you can now select multiple files (vs. one by one)take ownership of said files " How is this done? I know you take ownership of an entire project folder, but can I group-select a few files?

Although...I'm not sure how this affects the cut list (or if you even plan on using one). I haven't got that far yet..

I'm doing the exact same thing with my deck. I drew a longer-than-needed line at 45 degress, made a structural member, patterned it. Now all my floorboards overhang the frame. Instead of using the weldment trim command as you are doing, I just drew a sketch (a rectangle in my case) and...

I would also like to move the feature tree to my 2nd monitor.
