    New sketch reference....denied?

    hey folks, quick question: i've been handed a model and wanted to redefine a feature sketch to add a reference, but i'm getting "References to additional 3d geometry may not be made; please select again". i've seen this before when messing around with a new config.pro (which i most certainly...

    BOM and bulk item shenanigans

    hi folks, okay, here's what i have: top assy is a skid with pressure vessels, pipe runs, cabinets, etc. each pipe run is a subassy of fittings, valves, gauges, etc located on a datum curve defined by points (offset csys). the pipe itself is a part created in assy and thin protrusions extruded...

    Combo state drawing views

    hi folks, i could've sworn this was what i was looking for, but i'm not seeing it. what i want is an iso view on a drawing showing a combination of no hidden/wf and shaded parts/subassys. however, i can only get views showing fully shaded or with a mix of wf/nohid/hid. am i missing something in...

    Generic/Instance regen behavior...

    ...that is to say, they aren't regenerating at all. i have one part, for example, that has several instances. none of the instances are regenerating with their tabled values. they can verify just fine, but when opened, i get a part geometrically the same size as the generic, but showing the...

    Associated lists, on-the-drawing-BOM

    i have my req in for asme y14.34 just to be safe, but would like to query the experts. i've done very little work at companies that require on-the-drawing-boms and would like to hear some of your recommendations. fyi, we are mostly an ASME pressure vessel house, kinda young. i'm being slated...

    default_layer_model configuration

    howdy folks. has anybody toyed around with this option? i'm setting up layer rules in start models, but came across this option looking for alternatives. at first it looks like a layer "template" object. can more than one object type be listed? seems silly to point to a part model for drawing...

    WF3 ps2pdf setup

    i've searched, but can't find specifically what i'm looking for. i don't see the pdf option in our wf3 save as menu, so was gonna write a mapkey using a pcf file to send the ps to convert in pdf995 (ps2pdf995.exe). what's the command line for input and output to the working directory? does %HOME...
