Cheers! I'll take a look Catiajim - I take it that the drawing standards for funnel dims is locatable from the catenv file? Having lost my unique sheet sizes from the cat collection standard already it seems you're probably going to be right. Not sure whats happened over here but a few things...

Thanks Catiajim, good guesswork! We actually upgraded from R14 to R15. As we no longer have an I.T specialist at the company we called in a support company to show us how to do it. After the install the support company guy then created the sheet sizes we desire in (I believe) and xml file...

Hello all, When detailing it is sometimes necessary to put our work onto sheets larger than A0. We had created some different size standards and when using 'page setup' 'sheet style' it was possible to change the drawing frame and print area. My problem is that the sheets we created are no...

Cheers for that KooKoo. I left a message with IBM 6 days ago and am still waiting to hear back. Luckily this is only a minor problem, but had this been anything major I think I would, by now, be very annoyed at IBM for their support - or lack of it.

I take it every one else can add funnels to their cumulated dimensions in R15 then? Can anyone shed some light on what I'm doing wrong? Does Dassualt have a web site for posing questions to the software developers?

Hi, We've recently upgraded to R15 and it seems that this version will not allow me to add a funnel to a cumulated dimension. The option is there under the properties for said dimension, however the 'tick box' is dead and will not toggle on or off. Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone...

Hello, We have the autosave set to run every 30 minutes. This is a good method as a lot of the designers are from off the drawing boards and haven't been conditioned to save regularly. One of the designers here has just had a crash and upon restarting V5 did not recover his 'previous session...

Hello, I have been asked to save some catdrawings as PDF files for export. I have opened said catdrawings and using save management saved the catdrawings as filetype PDF. This seems to work well, however upon closer scrutiny of the PDF's I have noticed 2 faults. 1: Geometrical tolerance...

Hi eklunja, Thats exactly what I was looking for. I didn't even know about the existance of that button - I'll bet I barely use 20% of the functoins in V5, it's almost too powerful! I guess it was always OFF under my old profile - and the new profile re-set it to ON, simple when you know how...

Hi eklunja, In answer to your question I am currently using V5R14 SP4. I would be interested to hear more about dimension systems if you would like to go into more detail? Also If you use the same release as me does your computer allow you to erase individual dims created as a group using the...

Hello all, I have a problem with my cumulated dimensions. Recently we were assigned new windows user profiles and I think this has led to the software returning to its defualt settings. Previously I could delete an individual dimension that was created as part of a cumulated group of...

Hi Jim, Just checked the software manager window and it appears the version of catia we use is: build level - B14 service pack level - 4 Apparantly although this seems like a bug it is possible to de activate the save window, unfortunately the staff member who had the knowledge to do so no...

Hello all! I have a problem with V5 R14. The problem is that during a save management operation on large assemblys a window appears in the top left of the catia window depicting each .catpart as it saves. This has the undesirable effect of ruining the graphic display of the session which needs...

Hello, Our printer has gone haywire and keeps printing blank A3 sheets, upon checking the print manager it appears that no jobs are queued. However the printer does have a yellow flag icon on display, upon selecting the icon the following message appears - THE RAW ON xxx DEVICE IS OUT OF...

yes! Isolate the view (right MB click on relevant view in tree - select 'view xx object' for more options, isolate is about the 3rd one down in the list). Once isolated you're free to draw til your hearts content, only trouble is the view is 'brain dead' and will never update. You might want...

Hi phodge, I've had this problem before to, and have ended up cutting sections 0.1 mm off centre as a workaround - don't know if this will suit your application though. The other 'escape' I have used in the past is to change the view type from 'exact' to 'approximate' within the view...

Cheers jackk! Only trouble is my company don't have the necessary license, Don't suppose you know of any other options using only the GS1 license.

Hello, Can anybody help? We do not have access to the kinematics package on catia5 but have had good results manipulating our machine by using driving constraints - however upon attempting to get our cam to follow a 3d wireframe curve we have noticed that the curve is not concatenated and...
