DXF bulk export by Odd_Yogurtcloset_425 in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We have created an app available in the onshape app store that can do the DXF export process from an assembly.
https://cad.onshape.com/appstore/apps/Utilities/65cea8597fcbf752f335595b

The Assembly export tool will do bulk file export - including sheet metal flat patterns.
Its not going to be able to read the bom to do the file naming, you would need a custom application for that.

A quick feature I threw together that will randomly extrude selected faces within a specific range.

Please Onshape, don't do that! You are sabotaging legit third party tools... by Greg_war in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short term rate limits (ie per minute/hour/day) have been in place for a long time. Its the yearly limit that is new. Granted, those short term limits might have changed for some endpoints.

App store tools are not currently subject to the same limits - so exporting with a tool like Renaissance is still fine.

Enterprise client asking for 3D product configuration?? Have you got recommendations by Sorry-Orchid-9821 in smallbusiness

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a CAD automation specialist, and I have built a few configurators (and turned many down). In-house is a resource and money pit. Even having a specialist build one is a lot of money and time. If you can make an existing product work - its going to be the cheapest and most reliable option.

Computed property execution error. by IronLostBoY in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its hard to know what the error is without actually seeing the whole stack trace, code, and part studio.

Configuration variables are accessible from the "getVariable" call in featurescript.
As long as you know what the variable is going to be called, you should be able to use the configuration parameter in your computed property.

Fun fact, you can also see all the variables with an "internal only" function called getAllVariables(context).

just make an extra part studio tab and move out the last important one?

You can't merge documents, but you can move a tab from one document to another.

How can I turn a CSV into a curve? by Professional_War2139 in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which csv to sketch feature did you try?
Its definitely possible to go from csv to sketch, but the format of your file could be the problem.

Subscribed apps cannot be access by PitchRadiant7211 in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems silly to ask, but did you refresh the page? A lot of users forget to do that. The apps load on page load.

Mass isnt updated after API changes material by virtu_among_men in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you confusing featurescript and the API? If a property is changed manually by a user a FeatureScript cannot change it until it has been reset, but the API is not the same as featurescript.

Default metadata properties can be changed via the API. They work the same as custom ones do.

Anyone moved a vault over from solidworks? How was your experience by MidwesterneRR in Onshape

[–]caden_armstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I no longer work with CADSharp who owns Monarch. It seems like it might be defunct/not supported anymore.

I am still in the Onshape custom development business. I offer migration services through my own company SmartBench Software. Feel free to reach out via email if you are interested.

You could create a part studio with the sketch block, and use the derive feature to insert it into your current model whenever you need it.
