Is it possible to quickly identify if a sketch has been constrained properly with dimensions rather than defining with a fixed relation in order to make the sketch "fully defined". im working with a large design tree and dont want to open each sketch in order to determine if it was constrained...

Is it possible to get the projected area of an assembly on say a plane. I'm doing a project that needs to include a force from the wind and I would like to find the total area in which it acts apon and I would also like to find the centroid if possible. Any Ideas on how to get this information...

I have a design table inserted into my assembly that controls the motion of a skeleton sketch. I'm using the design table to drive one dimesion while getting the results of another dimension. The problem is that you have to activate each configuration in order for the design table to record the...

I'm fairly new to ANSYS and me and a few collegues are discussing proper modeling. We are using SolidWorks for our CAD Program and interface with ANSYS. The question is basically if you have an assembly that has a hole (say 2.6") in it and a boss (say 2.5" O.D.) gets welded into that hole. Can...

Im trying to make a linked copy of a workbook. I.E. I want to have a source workbook that drives another workbook. I know how to link cells, but I have to deal with formatting issues. Can you make one workbook drive another without any hassel? Thanks Jeff

Is solidworks capable of putting in unilateral GD&T callout on a drawing. I cant find it? Thanks, jeff

Is it possible to model the movement of a wire rope over a sheave. If not any ideas how to "fake it"

Has anyone ever used a program called Analytix? Is there a newer program that will replace this old dinosaur? Thanks Jeff

I have an assembly im working on and there is a part that is mated to the assembly. The mate says "Inplace(88789<1>,parallel)". This is the only mate for the part and it defines the location of the part. Also the part is not fixed. What is this mate? How is it created? and how do you modify it...

Does anyone have a list of icons in SW 2005 and their meaning. I have an icon in my tree that im not exactly sure what it is. I think it represent a configuration part.

Im working on a project that basically consists of runing number 6 size hoses thru a 180 deg. bending cable track with a bend radius of 4" and total length of 336". The hoses are clamped at both ends of the track and the working pressure is 2800 psi. My issue is that the hoses shrink to the...
