That makes perfect sense! Thanks for the explanation, I was going crazy trying to get it to behave like solidworks

thanks for the reply... This seems to work if I don't have any Geo. Sets, however if I have any Geo. Sets I can't get it to work.... any sugestions? Thanks!

Hi, I am new to Catia and I am coming from 4 years of Solidworks. I cannot figure out how to move up in the Specification Tree (go back before some of the features were put in there)

CorBlimeyLimey, That trick worked great!! thanks man Saved me alot of time :)

here are the constraints I want to keep for all 80 sketches http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/7505/numsketchpv8.jpg

is there any way to duplicate the sketch of the text and have it maintain the same constraints I have set? if i just copy and paste I lose everything

yeah, thats what I just started to try.. I think its going to be the best way to do this

Damn.. thats too bad..guess I better just suck it up and do all 80 parts manually :( I have no idea how to write macros.....

ha.. sorry I'm working on a 1920X1200 24" monitor http://img378.imageshack.us/img378/2096/templateel21yf9.jpg

Hey, I have to create about 80 of these parts with a few different dimensions, and I need to change the text on each one. I can't seem to get the text value in a design table.. Does anyone know a trick or anything? OR can I have it link to a dimension in the model (the radius of the curve)

Yeah, thanks for the info guys!

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows any of the following specs n, r, k, Poisson's Ratio , Yield Stress for A-516-70 if you need to know the thickness, base it off 1" Thanks!

Thanks for the reply guys These shapes will be Hot or Cold pressed, using a die... they are pressed in a couple steps (they press one part, then move it, and press another section) The most common metal they use is A-516 - Grade 70 The main information I want to find from Solidworks is an...

I forgot to mention, in that screenshot, the model is a solid model, not a surface model

Thanks for the reply guys. I forgot to show you the shape I need to form http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/7113/shotdg5.jpg they can be up to 200" dia and 6" thick so when I go to build the surface in solidworks (since surfaces have no thickness) I need to figure out where in the 6" is...
