    Creating A Database And Using The Data For Project Quotes

    The idea that I had in mind was to open a template file, select a component from a list and the balance of the information would automatically be filled in other fields. I understand that this can get rather lengthy and complicated. Selecting a component from a drop down menu would be nice. The...

    Changing The Deformation Scale Ratio With COSMOSXpress

    What I meant about changing the "Deformation Scale Ratio" was the display scale (view on the screen), not the actual model scale. This has nothing to do with material used, forces in the right direction, etc. This is clearly a visual setting.

    Sensing An Extremely Long Distance With Precision

    Anyone could recommend an economical way to sense a steel plate at a distance of 16 feet with precision to 2 decimal places? I've found Ultrasonic Sensors that can sense the distance, not the precision but costs a fortune. Any response will be greatly appreciated!
