Layout mode is just that, for part layout not sketching. Normally you create your 3D model in model mode then open layout mode to dimension your part. Layout mode will automatically create views of the part created in Model mode. Sketches made in Layout cannot be viewed in model mode, at...
Your question is confusing. Not sure what you mean by “sketch toggle”. Do you mean Layout mode or wireframe? There is a 3D wireframe to solid converter under tools but it has limitations. If your 2D drawing is just that, a flat view of 3 or more sides of the part then a solid model could be...
Are you using Cadkey or KeyCreator? Cadkey wasn’t able to do assemblies. Cadkey, now KeyCreator is a direct modeler, no need for constraints.
This forum is dead, have you tried posting on the Kubotek webforum? Lots of users there. You don’t need to be current on maintenance to post, just a...
I would suggest looking at a casting if the quantities and tolerances allow for it. If only a couple of parts then an die sink EDM is the only logical solution as presently designed.
Even though it may not be related it may help to know your computer specs. When KC 10.0 was first released there was some reports of “access violation” errors. They seemed to be related to imported settings, such as toolbars, from earlier versions, and video card settings. Try using the...
I just updated to a Win7 64 bit machine and haven’t loaded CK19 yet but have read on the Cadkey forum that it will run fine. You may have to run it in XP compatible mode on some hardware. Some of the CDE programs, like Dynamouse may not work but it sounds like you won’t need that for legacy...
Without looking at the surface it’s hard to say why you’re getting the message. My guess is that the shape of the offset surface is distorting the edges enough to cause incomplete edges or gaps. If you offset a smaller amount does it work? Look at it this way. If you have a concave surface...
I think the fonts go in the English folder. Did you take note of where they came from? Your .prt & ptn files can go into their respective folders. After re-installing, did Cadkey work other than the font you wanted and your custom keyboard and fonts.
They don’t have the ability on this forum...
I can’t remember if there was an R2. I was about this time the Cadkey introduced the license that tied your software to a piece of hardware, such as hard drive or network card. That pissed off a lot of users that used one copy on multiple machines. I noticed that I have the manuals for CK99...
