    Shared licenses

    First of all, you should talk to your manager and explain the situation and why you're unable to do your work. If the manager isn't able to resolve this, then go to IT and have them cancel your co-workers CATIA session which should free up the license.

    0-80 thread on a ..450 pitch diameter?

    I'm designing two thin-walled parts that are to be threaded together. I don't have enough wall thickness for standard thread, so I'd like to use a 0-80 UNF thread profile on a Ø.450 pitch diameter. I've been able to 3D model the external and internal threads, but how do I specify such a thread...

    DRAFTING - DIMENSION LINE AND GD&T

    I don't know of a way to limit the dimension line, but here's what I do instead: Go to the properties for the dimension to Add Text below the value. just type in a space to leave it blank, and it should trim back the dimension line as if there is text there.

    Draft in GSD

    I'm not familiar with those licenses, but if you have Part Design workbench, you could do it as a solid. And then extract the surface (if you really need a surface)

    Catia V5 Kinematics

    I believe this will require two Kinematic mechanisms: 1 mechanism when not in contact (no blue piston), and another mechanism when the blue piston is in contact. Then you will need to set up some timing to drive the first one, and then drive the second. You're really trying to do something...

    Tolerances on Model Generated Dimensions

    What do you plan to do with these tolerances?

    Catia V5 Kinematics

    is the blue valve always in contact with the pink follower?

    CATIA V5 Drafting view scaling without affecting annotations.

    I don't know of any way to prevent it if you're changing the Sheet scale. You could move the lines and test in the table to a new view, and then reset the view scale to 1/1. Or you can just Scale/Transform the lines and text. Of course, if you had used a CATIA Table, you wouldn't have this...

    Tolerances on Model Generated Dimensions

    That's strange! Does this happen to all dimensions? all drawings? all users? Which drafting standard are you using? which dimension style?

    Table to geometry

    Is it a Design Table ?

    Problem when importing STEP file into CATIA - Assembly combined into one PART & PARTBODY

    I think you have a "bad" STEP file that is causing this problem. I recall someone wrote a program to convert multi-body CATPart files into assemblies. But this was all that I could find (and it contains a bad link to a program): https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=242427 Maybe you...

    CAITA SCREEN LOCKED

    Could you please inform us as to which workbench you're using and which feature you're trying to fix. A screen shot of the entire pop-up window would be very helpful for us to help solve you're problem. The error message suggests too big of a diameter with too small of a bend radius. Can you...

    view sectioning in 3D part / assembly

    You can temporarily SPLIT a part with a surface to see it's section. You could also temporally SPLIT all the parts in an assembly. The sectioning tools are planar only.

    Create Line Graph in CATdrawing with Coordinate List and Table Function? (V5R26)

    It can be done manually within a drawing, but I think your Excel method is better. I don't know of any graph capability in CATIA V5
