Hi, Does anyone know the difference between the yellow and green gear part bodies? better yet, does anyone have a chart that shows what every different type/color gear represents? thanks in advance. cheers...

Hi, Is there a way to make a duplicate of all the catparts under a huge product without having to save them one by one, espcially if these files are located under various folders and drives. I have a product with tons of catparts, and when someone ask for a copy of it, it's too big to turn it...

hi, how can you delete the layout-->sheet 1 from the part tree. the delete option is available but it tells to reconsider the operation since it cannot be deleted. I don't even know how i added the layout sheet in the first place. Does anyone know how to remove it from the tree? thanks

Hi, I have a part and its absolute origin (X,Y,Z planes) is not where I want it to be, can I change the origin of the catpart without re-creating the part from scratch? thanks,

Hi, I have a .dwg file created by Autocad, and I want to import this into my Catpart, either as a sketch or as a 3d lines. is this possible? thanks

Hi, In the part design bench or other bench (just not in sketch mode) I noticed that at the end of every line and curve, there are points. These points are part of the line/curve and can't be deleted nor hidden without affecting the line/curve. Is there a way to remove these points or just...

Hi, Is it possible to change the origin of the part after the part has been created? I was wondering if i can make all parts to have the same origin in an assembly. thank you

hi, How can i create a symmetry of a part that has 100 part bodies, and I don't want to creat a symmetry of 100 part bodies..is there a way to create a symmetry of the CatPart without creating symmetries of individual part bodies in a part? perhaps in an assembly? except, the symmetry function...

hi, is there a way to select everything under a part or a product so that even though i've hidden a only line which belongs to a sketch, i can just select everything under a part and show it, rather find that specific line in a sketch from the tree. sometimes, i'll hide part bodies simply by...

Hi, Why do i get a red squiggly line under my annotation in assembly design?? can i get rid of them, i want to take a screen capture and those lines make them look bad. thanks,

hi, I relocated many of my parts that are used in a CATProduct and they can't be located when the product is opened. Is there a way to specify a root directory to re-link the parts rather than manually finding them? thank you,

Hi, how do you change the font size of the constraint dimensinos? the fonts get bigger when you zoom out and smaller as you zoom in, but they get too small when you zoom in and can't see the number in a presentation after capturing it. thanks

Hi, is it just me or these toolbars and icons never stay where i set them...they just move around and can't get them to arrange the way i want them. Can someone please help me with these toolbars and icons? i want them to stay in the position i set without locking them there. and even when i...

Hi, is it possible to modify the original origin of a catpart or a catproduct to a new origin?

hi, It seems like only the partbody of the part can be mirrored using the symmetry function in assembly. I have many part bodies in a part and want to mirror the whole part in assembly, is there a way to use the symmetry function to mirror every partbody of the part under product? one more...

Hi, I don't know why but now everything on my screen has perspective view, so things that are closer looks bigger relative to components in the back even when it's from the perfect side view. I used to be able to look at parts from the side view and all will be exactly the same size regardless...

Hi, When I'm doing some studies, and need to measure distance between components that are aligned properly in side view but far apart with respect to depth, the number i get from using the measurement tool is 3D distance. So even tho the parts maybe close from the side view, actual distance is...

Hi, how do you loft a tube and not a solid? and after connecting 2 solids with differnt shape, how do you turn the solid into a tube with even thickness? for some reason i used the shell function and it didn't shell the multi-sections solid. :( thank you

Hi, When you hack and slashed imported models, the model keeps a line between section of the model where a portion has been removed and extuded to fill the voids. some boundaries do not show up as a line, but some of them show lines of sepration even though it's still one face and solid...

hi, I know that you can use manipulation and compass to move parts around in a product, but is there a way to move the part in x,y, or z direction by certain amount. For example, move a part in y direction by 20mm or something like that. thank you .
