I'm 23 years into my career, have always heard we were a few years away, and I just haven't seen it. Any attempts from our customers have created more work for us and ultimately have fallen flat on their face. I don't know if I agree in principle with the sticking with the 2D drawing, but it...

This part reeks of a standoffish attitude or indifference on your part, but I hope that you have a point of contact at your customer who is friendly and knowledgeable and willing to help to offset that. Respect for not ignoring this issue completely and looking outwards for a solution, though...

I don't know if this is the "solution", but when this happens to me I just save it as a different name, delete the original, then rename it to the original name.

I also had that question go unanswered here thread559-190194 . After researching some welding specs (I think AWS something or other), my understanding was that the dimensions of the weld symbols were supposed to be fixed relative to the real world. I.E. on any properly plotted drawing they were...

I agree with Anna's sentiments. I don't know your exact situation, but you state that "..all our parts are done by an outside vendor". When you say "done", I'm going to assume that you mean "fabricated complete, including forming, etc." If your company isn't doing the forming, then I must...

I've had what I consider to be a good experience with Dell workstations so far. If you are on a tight budget, you might want to check out what the Dell outlet has to offer. The "outlet factor" worried me a little at first, but I have no complaints after recently purchasing two Precision...

I'm going to second the tick about not supplying your vendor with a flat pattern. It's bad practice. Things bend differently at different facilities. Unfortunately I've had to deal with a few customers that are unfamiliar with sheet metal work. They get a little overzealous to "help us out" and...

Just to clarify, I'm talking about the mirrored reflection of the part itself. I do indeed have the realview with my "silver" card and I get the reflection off of the part. I don't know what the bronze card has.

I believe that your video card must have the gold sphere of approval on the Solidworks certified cards/drivers site to get the mirrored reflection. Not that it's important, but our I.T. guy has a gold card while I have the silver and I am pretty jealous. Haha, petty I know, but whatever...

Yes, I am speaking about the "tail", not the arrow itself. I have changed the size of the arrow and it has no effect on the size of the tail. I'm also using ANSI by the way. No matter what I have tried, the tail does not change size. This includes checking and unchecking the "fixed size weld...

I'm using SW 2007 and am attempting to place a weld callout in a drawing. I don't have the weld modeled and it would be pretty tedious to do so. The problem is, the tail on this thing is huge(long). I've tried many different ways to make it smaller, including messing with the fonts, but the...
