Hi,
in tools/options, and under mechanical there is a section that deals with the setup of importing and exporting files. There will be a setting for tolerance of connecting surfaces when imported. also a couple of other settings you might want to see!. My suggestion is to play with these...
Hi,
I have a cube(solid) which intersects a "s" shaped surface.This surface contains several surfaces. I would like to cut the solid to entire surface. I am guessing to join cutting surfaces, then use the cut comand?. But I have no expierence using cut in this fashion. Is this the...
I figured out what was going on. I made some planes and points and extrapolated some surfaces, but , they would not display until i double clicked them in model tree to change there properties. So I came to the conclusion that perhaps the default layer was not displaying or something along those...
Thank you Kapitan!
The problem seems to be that the surfaced part I am working with. For some reason I cannot draw lines or add surfaces or modify them,but, If I open a new file I can do whatever I want. Also could you briefly explain the picks, for example support?,direction?and other picks...
Hi,
I was just wondering if there is a walk through for starting out on surfacing. I currently have a surfaced part I need to elaborate on, ex. extend sufaces or create new surfaces from the existing. I thought that this would be easy with my v4 background. Is it nessecary to have a complete...
THANKS FOR YOUR RESPONSE ,BUT I UNFORTUNATLEY FORGOT TO MENSION THAT I AM RUNNING CATIA V5 R9. I ALREADY KNEW HOW TO DO IT ON V4. IF YOU HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HOW TO ACHIEVE THIS ON V5 IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
BOTTOMS UP!

HI,
IF I HAVE A INCLOSED SURFACE WHICH IS SOME WHAT COMPLEX, HOW DO I SELECT ALL SURFACES AND CHANGE IT TO A SOLID. ALSO HOW CAN I SELECT SUFACES BY COLOR RATHER THAN INDIVIDUAL SELECTION?. THANK YOU IN ADVANCED.
BOTTOMS UP!

THANKS AKESSON, THAT MAKES ALOT OF SENSE. BUT YOU WOULD THINK THAT YOU COULD USE THE INITIAL PLANES IN A EMPTY ASSEMBLY MODEL TO ASSEMBLE THE PLANES OF THE FIRST PART IN A OFFSET MANOR. I WONDER IF THERE IS A REASON FOR THAT?
BOTTOMS UP!

HI,
IT SEEMS THAT WHEN I ASSEMBLE A PART INTO A ASSEMBLY THE DATUM PLANES ATTACH AUTOMATICALLY, IS THERE A WAY I CAN OVERIDE THIS AND ASSEMBLE PART TO OTHER FACES OR PLANES?.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCED. VINNY
hi,
i was just wondering how to a density value for models in catia v5 r6, so that under properties it will show mass,material,volume and moment of inertia. thank you very much. vinny
HI,
I CAN CHANGE UNITS FROM ISO TO ANSI IN DRAWINGS BUT NO IN PART MODELS. WHEN IM CREATING GEOMETRY ITS ALWAYS IN METRIC.
WHERE CAN I CHANGE STANDARD SO ITS ALWAYS ANSI IN EVERY TYPE OF MODEL UPON START UP. THANK YOU IN ADVANCED. VINNY
