September is here and it’s back to the grind for college students. A new batch of engineering majors are gearing up for the toughest four (or more) years of their lives. There are dozens of subjects an engineering major can focus on, and the tragedy of majoring in any engineering field is that in spite of all the classes, studying, allnighters, and existential dread, college can only prepare you for so much. The best way to gain experience as an engineer is in the field.

Model-Based Definition (MBD) is a journey. Defining product and manufacturing information (PMI) on 3D models rather than 2D drawings is just a start. After that, it’s vital to serve the downstream processes such as inspection, fabrication, and suppliers, in an organized, consumable and actionable fashion. Regardless of MBD or 2D drawings, the functional purpose is to communicate.

I have a hole feature and then further down the feature tree I have a sketch. I now need to delete or suppress the hole feature but it has a pretty big sketch and there are relationships between the sketch and the hole feature. My issue is how to find the relationships between the parent "5/16-18 Tapped Hole1" and the child "Sketch16"? I have tried "Display/Delete Relations" and set the options to external.

Does anyone know a quick way to space out ordinate dimensions that still looks aesthetically pleasing? I know there's an option to "re-jog ordinate", but when I use this command I typically don't like the result and have to manually jog the dimensions anyway. For instance, I manually placed my dimensions at the top of my part as shown in the first screenshot below. Then I was making some changes to dimensions at the bottom of my part and used "re-jog ordinate", which caused the dimensions at the
