John, would there happen to be some documents/presentation describing the new functions of 7.5 vs. 7 on the Siemens website? I refer to it before asking anymore Qs. thanks!

simply draw a vertical line. turn it to reference. now create a rectangle starting to the right of the line and bring it across the centerline. the centerline should divide it perfectly. In pro/e symmetry contraints pop up when you reach the proper distance on the left side of the...

in sketcher how do I apply a symmetic constrain on 2 end points across a centerline. I see a MIRROR constraint being applied when i mirror an object, but how do i do this with say, creating a rectangle across a centerline? thanks in advance.

Thanks John. Would it be possible to request an enhancement for a User Role that would say "ex-Parametric" user or other types of CAD software?

OK.. no where on the web have the small community of "pro/engineer migrated to UG" people put info for newbies moving from Pro/E Wildfire 4 to Unigraphics. In Pro/E we are used to seeing auto-dimensions and constraints pop up in sketcher. all of which are weak until you confirm them as strong...

THANKS! I WILL GIVE IT A TRY! MY IDEA WAS FOR A HOME PROJECT TO TAKE A 2 RPM 12V ELECTRIC MOTOR AND GET IT DOWN TO THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH FOR A DOBSONIAN TELESCOPE. (.0014 RPM) I WILL LET YOU KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT.

any takers?

I cannot figure out the proper combination for setting up assembly components as pins or static parts. Then assigning mechanism gears to simple 3 gears with 1 bar. thx!
