    Import label from Autocad to WF2

    Hi all, I've created a product label in AutoCad and would like to import it to my WF2 assembly file. What is the best way to do this? I've tried to save it as dxf, open it in WF and read it in my sketcher, however, it somehow only brings in the graphics and ignores my text. I've tried to open...

    reverse engineering module

    Hi all, Has anyone tried out the reverse engineering module? I saw the demo and it looks useful. My main goal is to turn my scanned data points to a solid model. Is it worth purchasing? Thanks for sharing your experience with this module! Regards, Gwen

    reinstalled WF2

    Hi all, I've just reinstalled WF2 on my machine and for some reason the way it regenerates a model is slower (even when the part is extremely simple), and as if it needs to repaint the model and datums all the time, even though I am trying to pick the commands at the top and not highlighting...

    Does Window XP Service pack 2 affects WF2?

    Hi all, Our IT dept just installed window xp service pack 2 on my pc and i find that WF2 is running slower than usual. A simple model is even rotating slower than it used to. Will this problem has anything to do with SP2? Has anyone has a similar problem before? Thanks!

How can i simulate this mechanism in WF? I'm using a pin connection to assemble the spring and to change the...

    torsion spring

    Hi all, I am trying to create a torsion spring with a deflection angle. But i can't seem to get the 2 ends be at an angle, rather than just starting and ending at the same plane. Can someone help me out? Thanks! Gwen

    WF2 freezes on assembly

    Hi, Whenever i open an assembly, WF2 freezes the model. If i open 1 of the parts and closes it, and go back to the assembly, everything is fine. Or, when i add a part to it and cancel, it will be unfrozen too. I don't have this problem when i open the same model in Wildfire. Anyone has seen...

    Insert mode

    Hi, I'm in insert mode but somehow i can't seem to move it up the model tree to where i want it to be. I have a total of 237 features and i can only move it up to 232 and nothing before that. I have restarted wildfire and opened other files but it seems that only this file has this problem...

    change working directory to ftp?

    Hi, I would like to access to proE files on a ftp folder. I can't seem to find the ftp folder under the "change working directory" option. Currently, the way i do it is dragging the .prt to WF but this will cause the folder window to freeze and i have to open another window to drag another .prt...
