    The Ideal SW Computer

    Anyone know how the core2duo compares to xeons for solidworks? I'm looking at getting a dell M90 fully decked out and naturally they don't run on xeons.

    Can't draft extrude past .5deg

    Why is it that I can't put a draft of more than .5 degrees on an extrude? The sketch is from an imported dxf and its quite complex. It contains a lot of small lines that I wish were splines instead. It's a text logo. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Text in solidworks

    Another stupid question. I won't start a new thread. I'm in assembly mode trying to use the hole wizard on a 1/8" inch plate(in editing mode) and I'm trying to line these up with a part already in the assembly. Is there any way to do this? The position tab of the hole wizard just ignores...

    Text in solidworks

    Can't combine solids

    Yeah solidworks is very different and I've been looking for tutorials and never found any. I think fillet would work. Thanks everyone.

    Can't combine solids

    Yeah only 1 solid body is shown. I'm trying this inside of the part enviorment. I have a sweep and a extrude that go into eachother and I'm just seeing about smoothing out the intersection. I'm not even sure this will do this for me. I just started playing with solidworks a few days ago...

    Can't combine solids

    For some reason combine, join, and cavity are shaded out and can't be selected. No matter what solid, face, etc I select they don't unshade and are useless. Any idea?
