When I used CTL-Mate to mate parts in an assembly before SW2021, I used to just get a thin mate selection bar that came up. Now, I get an unrelated multi-function box- Breadcrumb? that appears above the mate selection bar. About half of the time I mate this way, I just get this multi-function...
"Not per se. I am the engineering department, so what I say goes"
Don't I wish!
I always have to fight with model displays that someone else set up. It can be frustrating.
All of a sudden, my models show a shadow mirror or identical image right behind the actual model. I must have hit something inadvertently to trigger this, and have tried to get rid of it. Can someone tell me how to get rid of it?
A drawing for a part that is to be anodized calls out a MIL-SPEC for the anodizing. The note that calls out the MIL-SPEC included the rev letter after the spec, MIL-A-8625E. Looking up the spec online, I see that the rev had changed to F. Is it common practice to include the current rev letter...
Do you use EPDM, and is your ECR integrated? The engineer that configured it has taken another position and we don't have a dedicated Admin, so I guess that is the only option.
Our company has been using EPDM for two years now. It was configured by one of our engineers. To revise a drawing, an ECR is initiated. The data card fields- changes, reasons, disposition etc. are filled in and then it is sent for approval. The PE approves the ECR and it goes to Doc Control to...
The spec was from an axial thermistor at that operating temp and resistance value. The plastic (?) part was one that I pulled out of a similar unit. It is actually a lot more dense than plastic, maybe a ceramic? It has the appearance of plastic. So in a nutshell, I want to capture as much of the...
I would like to source a thermocouple with the following rating, or as close as possible, in a strip type configuration. Could anyone identify this style of thermocouple? It is a plastic rectangle, 8.67mm X 25.45mm X 1mm thickness. It has two solder pads. This would be used in temp feedback in a...
Hello,
I have set up an INTET-555 data acquisition unit with a PC, windows 7, 4G of RAM. I am measuring temperature with 10 (channels) J thermocouples. Following the instructions, I chose "digitize to RAM" for data saving. After the digitization is stopped and the data saved, the text file...
When I make a drawing of a sheetmetal part and select one view as flat pattern, I get bend notes but no bend lines. I went through the properties and still no bend lines. Any ideas?
Tried uninstall and reinstalling Acrobat. The situation is getting worse as now I have to right click and open in solidworks for all of my solidworks files or a get a pile error messages pertaining to journal files and opening in Illustrator.
I was trying to open an Illustrator file in solidworks. I do not have Illustrator. After that experiment, all pdf files that I tried to open were reverting to Solidworks as the default program to open, unless I right-click and select Acrobat. This isn't horrible to have to do but not possible...
