I don't know the answer to that one. I know you can turn off your color wheel, in your Options-preferences Modeler/Assembly cycle color wheel.
I would like to know the answer to this one myself. . .Anyone?
How are you using the stitch command? Are you using RMB pick all, or selecting the free edges individually?
Try this:
Show free edges
RMB all
done
Stitch
You can also stitch two overlapping edges by selecting them after you hit the stitch command. You may need to position the mouse over...
Thanks Christopher, we ended up getting the file to import by having our vendow export the file on a different system. They are running both Unix and Windows, they originally exported the file from a Unix box, and it didn't wrok. They then created the file in a windows enviornment and it...
Berit,
Make sure you have a close loop when you're sweeping. When you see the "inside out" surfaces in Ideas, it's an indication that you have open edges.
If you have to work with open surfaces, you can do as RTD said and turn on hardware backlighting. This will allow you to view the model...
RTD, just got a chance to respond. . .
ConX, I've got to be a little "picky" with your statements about constrained geometry.
I personally don't feel that generating reference curves constrains an unconstrained wireframe profile. Agreed, you can't directly modify the Reference Curves without...
Thanks for the information. I was under the impression it was coming from a Windows 2000 system, but I may be wrong. I have already tried to unzip the .arc file, and winzip doesn't recognize it as a valid zip file, so I'll give the gunzip command from Unix a shot. I have to get my hands on...
(1) What advantage does using a reference line here give you over using just a fully constrained, regular line?
There are two advantaces. First, you can reuse the line as RTD stated. Second, it instantly constrains the line when you convert it to a reference line, this is an added bonus when...
Hi All,
We're in the process of bringing in an archive file from another company and the error non sequential file keeps on coming up. Has anyone seen this error message before? If you have, what is the work around.

I've done something similar with the variational sweep command, but it's a bit*h to set up. You need to do as RCDLtd stated, but you have to set up your constraints very carefully. You need to keep at least one edge completely constrained perpindicular to the sweep reference line. You then...
