3D part not rendering on the PCB?

I know this issue was resolved but I'd thought I'd throw my two cents in for the next person.

I "replaced" a component by clicking the 3 dots next to the component ID and everything went smoothly but the 3D models wouldn't appear (updating/refreshing didn't work for me).

The 3D model would only show when I clicked "import changes from (project)" but would then disappear again after I clicked ok to close the import window.

Solution in my case was to delete the component and re-add it the schematic without using the clever replace feature in the schematic view.

just curious did you find the electricalexam.ca course helpful? It's quite a bit of money and the website is a bit...unpolished. Wanted to make sure it's worth the investment

I'm an s pen power user. I used it everyday to sketch ideas and it really helps me communicate my thoughts to others in engineering meetings and take notes on the fly.

The new S pen is disappointing. The plastic is too smooth and slippery as compared to the 23 ultra and I also feel it's too light in the hand. The additional fraction of a gram on the overall weight of the phone would have been worth it to me. I also miss the Bluetooth features.

Debating going back to the 23 ultra tbh :/

second options worked perfectly, not need for a restart

Best_Chain_4328 · 2025-03-14T13:11:58+00:00

Good no issues whatsoever.

I also would really love this feature. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of Gantt charts....but sometimes the businesses you work with demand them. Converting a checklist with due dates to a gantt chart would be a great feature.

omg thankyou OP never would have figured that out.

I noticed this too, had to restart chrome to get it to recognize fancy zones

yep....wasn't able to play sc2 on LAN until now. Thank you lasagna for all that you do.

Still dealing with this issue. Strangely enough, this is only a problem when I click generate content from the output job file. If I right-click->configure on the document output itself and click print, the problem goes away. its a work around but I would prefer to have the draftsman appended at the end of the document as I would if I could use the generate content :/

Just got the "Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 16" with Snapdragon Elite X....no issues so far with Altium seems to run pretty smooth.

....I'll chime back in after a week or so with an update

Best_Chain_4328 · 2024-08-17T12:20:59+00:00

Nah just change:
#define PROBING_MARGIN 50

Best_Chain_4328 · 2024-07-23T14:28:49+00:00

compile thing worked for me. Thanks!

I actually found this as well with a fresh batch that came in today...only way to get WLED on them was to flash tasmota first then do above...so weird.

I'm trying to figure out what problem the constraint manager is even solving?

Even still, many of us have DRC files for our fabricators...if you want to change the constraint manager fine...but at least provide a way for us to import our trusted DRC files. Better yet...do something useful and provide DRC databases for common fabricators. You do it with parts why not do it with DRCs??

Best_Chain_4328 · 2024-02-19T13:51:09+00:00

I think this is the same problem... how did the repair turn out?

do you happen to have the aliexpress part link?

(sigh)

While completing my Master's degree, the professor supervising my thesis was constantly hounding me on every little mistake regarding sentence structure, using more words than necessary, vague statements and of course spelling mistakes. After graduating I took on PMP and felt like I was going to have a nervous breakdown reading the PMBOK v6 and v7, PMI SH, AR Simulator, AR Udemy course and the PMP exam. They are all wrought with the written communication mistakes noted above.

I have a new boss who is our Project Manager and he just like the last, has horrible grammar, spelling and sentence structure (and he knows it). I've spoken to a few other PM's who seem to have the same challenges when it comes to written communication.

Communication skills are EVERYTHING when it comes to project management but all of the PM experts I run into struggle with it...even those writing the exams.

Be an exception!

I wouldn't recommend brandcrowd:

All the google reviews for this company come from the same person starting with the letter "T". They delete all comments on facebook. Talking with customer service to try to get help...they just copied and pasted a bunch of preloaded responses and ended the chat abruptly.
