Hi, I tried to cir-pattern my Boss-extrude 3 to the opposite side, however, it showed I have to merge the part. When I created the Boss-extrude 3, I did cancel the merge option, or I cannot create the part. The curve sketch was project from the sketch not using wrap sketch. I put my part in the attachment.
Is there a setting or something that can give me my part design options back. Whenever I right click on a part or extrusion, the feature options (delete, move, etc.) don't come up on my external monitor but will on my laptop. How do I fix this? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
Hi, I am trying to recreate this object in SW 2020. Tho don't know how to get started on that tube thing. Where would I start. Which features would I use or what sketch technique?
I am trying to edit a "Sweep" that was created from two (2) 3D sketches. When I open the 3D sketch that contains the path to alter some of the points I recieve this message; I need to know is there a way I can remove the constraint from this spline and then edit the points?

I basically have a tube with slots cut in a pattern down the length, and I need to coil it in a spiral. However, when I use the flex command to take the straight tube and coil it, I get a weird render issue where the solid looks inverted somehow. Not sure why this is; any fixes or other methods to achieve this same part?
I need to create an assembly cut but the cut isn't showing. I've created cuts in other assemblys, but now it doesn't seem to work. Running SW 2019 SP4. Anyone knows a solution for this or is it just ANOTHER solidworks bug..
For those running SW 2020 (I think it's at SP1 now?); what are your thoughts? Any irritating little (or major) issues you've noticed at this point? What is your rule of thumb for when to run update on a department's-worth of SW computers?
Hello! I´m trying to fold back this sheet metal piece after cutting it. However for some reason it modifies the geometry of one of the cut parts on the right side. I don´t know what i´m doing wrong here, I made sure the "normal cut" box was checked and after cutting the piece, all cuts seemed ok.
I thought I was working in MMGS, but I was actually working in inches. I completed the design, but now want to switch units to MMGS. I know that I can change the units, but it will automatically convert the dimensions but I want the all the dimensions to stay the same and just the units to change. Is there a way to do this?
This is my first attempt at a more complex part, and am learning as I am going. I am attempting to shell the part, but am receiving errors (That I frankly don't fully understand): The yellow highlighted portions--are these the areas giving me the potential issues? Thanks for any help! SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
I'm working in Solidworks 2018 and was wondering if there was a demote/ promote you can use to bring parts from a sun assembly into a assembly like Inventor has? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
I keep getting this error when attempting to create the attached sheet metal cone. I've tried the Insert Bend in a couple of places and played around with the settings, but still no dice. Is it a SW thing, or have I really come across an unfabbable (lol) cone? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
Hi folks, as you can see in the video below I doing an animation in which it has two hub which is kind of blocked in the same position. It moves from one step to another but suddenly it returns to its firts position? Someone knows how to fix it? You can see the issue occuring by the time of 0,19sec.
Having an issue in assemblies where I create a section view of solid parts, and they display as if they are surface/thin features, see example below. Just started getting this recently. Is this a setting that's easy to change back so they will display as solid bodies in section views? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
I know this shouldn't be this challenging, but I'm attempting to pattern a simple hole cutout along a rectangle sketch. I need the instances to be equally spaced along the sketch. A curve driven pattern doesn't seem to work with a sketch of four straight lines. What am I missing?
When I save an assembly under a new part number solidworks prompts me to save every individual part as well. This can get old real quick when you have a couple hundred parts in your assembly. Is there any way I can save an assembly under a new part number that still uses all the existing parts? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
Hi all, today the programs has started to show me this. . I'm not able to activate the automatic rebuilding on the assembly. The advertiing say to activate it on System option, but I really don't understand where this command is.. Does anyone know how to do?
I am trying to sweep along my entire 3d sketch. But it wont work because it is giving me an error saying i need to have a continuous path, which I dont understand because all the lines are connected. heres my file if you guys can give me some insight on it. if there is a way to break up a 3d sketch into multiple sketches, it would fix my issue.

Hello everyone, I intend to buy a cnc cutter for the tubes. This would simplify assembly in the workshop. The goal would be to embed the tubes at the junctions. I can't find a fast and efficient feature that allows me to do this.
Cool, thanks for sharing Alin. I wasn't really looking for a different method of processing though, I was asking how many people do we need to pay, including SolidWorks, to get SolidWorks to work correctly? When is SolidWorks going to be able to operate with files generated by a different version of itself? SolidworksModeling And Assemblies
I am preparing for CSWP right now. I am confident that I have modeled appropriately. But I don't receive the required the result. I have provided the screenshot of my question.
