I'm running with the same setup listed above. When I did the pack n go the original assembly is NOT in the same location as all sub-components. I'm wondering if this is to blame. After checking references and where used in SW explorer, everything seems to be ok. I have gone back and replaced...

In my latest project I've been using the 'pack n go' feature quite often. I'm having one small issue. The file that I 'pack n go' is the top level assembly. My problem starts when I change the file names of the components within sub-assemblies of the top level. I've made the changes to the file...

Very good points made by all, and to consider all types of compensation not just salary. A great thread for any young engineer in the making. Thanks guys.

So yesterday I had interview, everything went well and I was very pleased with the opportunities. I'm still a young engineer, I've been with my company just over 2.5 years but its time to move on. This new job will be my 2nd job out of college so I feel I have some room to haggle. Just as I was...

An alternative would be to create the section cut on sheet 'a', then drag the section view off the sheet or delete it. This way that view does not appear on the print, but you'll still be see where the cut will be. Then go to sheet 'b' and create the same view with the same section cut, but...

I've done this before by opening two sessions of SW but be sure to open your reference model in the 2nd SW session. There is no recovery log in the 2nd session. Also, with two sessions open you'll be tying up twice as much RAM. So if you have complex assemblies and patterns beware, cause more...

95% of the time my files are saved onto the network. I've noticed I only get these errors when working on the server. For a period of time, I saved files locally without any issues. I have 'write' access in all directories where I'm having problems. My system: Software:SW 2010 SP4.0, 64bit...

Every now and then I seem to be getting error messages when trying to save my work. The first error message usually reads: "Failed to save document" The next time I try to save it says: "An API call exited abnormally" This is very frustrating as my current remedy is save the file in...

It is possible to insert bends after combining the two flat pieces. At that point the model must be converted into a sheet metal part to insert bends. The flaw in this is that SW does not recognize the separate bodies as part of the sheet metal piece. It would be best to use the fillet bodies...

Thanks for the info. As for the flux cap., I'll be submitting a capital request form on Monday.http://www.tipmaster.com/images/afro.gif Thanks guys.

When I try the tilde search, it seems as though its all tool box library parts on my c:/. I don't really think I want to remove these files. I did not see any that were prefixed with the tilde. (My understanding is that when this appears, the file is currently open by you/another user). I have...

Multi-user environment was enabled, however, the problem remains.

Yes it is only happening when opening through windows explorer. I haven't had any other problems opening other file types. I checked with our IT dept. they confirmed I have 'Write' access in all the directories. Attached is the actual message I'm getting...

You can create a separate solid within the part similar to one the you show in your picture. (Where you expect the cavity to be). Or insert that part you showing, position it using relations and mates. Then Use the combine tool to subtract the intersecting bodies, this will leave the cavity.

weird..I'm not sure why it would do that. But if you create a new axis by choosing the 'Top' and 'Right' planes as the references, this replicates the 'Z' axis. Use this as your rotational reference. Should work from my experiences.

Hi all, new to the forum as of today. seems to have many useful tools. Anyway, I've been having this problem for a few weeks now and I'm really not sure how it started. But every time I try to open a SW file by double clicking the icon, it ALWAYS prompts me if I want to open a 'Read-only' file...
