How do I setup CATIAv5 to run with multiple threaded processes? I have noticed that it tends to use one processor and ignore the other CPU on my system.
Currently, I have the visualization mode type set to Multi process visualization mode.

Does anybody know how one changes the "standard" view names? When a new section view is made it titles it "Section view" I would like to fix it to read "Section View" (Capitalize the "V" in view). I have looked all through my drafting standards and can not find the place to change it at.
Can...
I would like to put in RFQ to a list of my vendors for a ANSI/NFPA standard cylinder. What standard should I buy so that I will know the proper way to spec the cylinders. Specifically I would like to know how to generate a part number for a standard NFPA cylinder. (If that is possible. Thanks)
I have a manual 6" butterfly valve (I think that is what it is called). Our guys on the floor are having a hard time telling if the valve is all the way open or closed as the valve is submerged under an opaque liquid and there is no way to visually tell if it is open or closed.
I am sure other...
I would like to set up my space mouse so the plus and minus commands change the sheet up and down one sheet. So for example if I was one sheet.1 and I hit the plus button on space mouse I would go to sheet.2
I ensure that my sheet are always in order and they are always named too the sheet.1...
I would like to weld two 1/8 fillet welds 1/4 inch long on 1” rod 180° apart. Which is the proper way to callout the weld per AMS 2.4:
1/8 (Fillet Symbol) 1/4”-180°
or:
1/8 (Fillet Symbol) 1/4”-1/2”
or:
1/8 (Fillet Symbol) 1/4”-2 23/64”
NOTE: 2 23/6 is the approximate circular distance...
I am running CATIA v5R16. When I clip (round) a rastered isometric view it appears that that the clip was successful. But when you view it in the print preview and also when it prints out the clip is not round but is square. Most of the times it is this way but some times it prints out properly...
I am looking for Thread Standards. Does anybody know where I can get them. I have a medium size excel file with the Unified Thread Standard. But, I would realy like Pipe Threads and NPSM Threads which I haven't found. I would make them but I do not have the standards to get the forumlas for...
I haven't contacted anybody but I would like to legally buy a copy of CATIAv5R15 for home. The MD2 package would suite me fine. I only would need one license. How much is the running rate for that these days. Nobody has prices on there web sight and I don't want to call somebody if it is WAY out...
I am currently designing a manufacturing drawing that designates a fillet tack weld. What is the proper way to call this in a drawing?
From what I have researched (I have seen a gif online, great source) it should be a weld symbol with a fillet triangle and a tail with text in it that states...
Is there any simple way to selection a dimension and make it reference without adding parentheses before and after the dimension text. I have resorted to put text on top of the dimension with a positional link that contains “( )”. The reason I do it that way is so I can keep the parentheses...
I have created a pipe and made a cross section of the pipe. Next I made a detail of the ID of end of the pipe. I would like to make a reference diameter dimension of the ID but I don’t want to show the whole diameter. My question basically is how do I break the dimension line? What I would like...
We have a customer that uses Unigraphics (I believe) and some of there simple part prints consist only of a single isometric view. The GD&T is not normal to the page but normal to the surface that the dimension is measuring. It looks really good and I would like to do it on some of our...
Here is a list of a bunch more drafint standards. Maby the faq could be updated.

It would be good if the title and a short description would be put next to each document if it is used. Becaus numbers mean nothing to me.
