This may sound silly, but I have a 40MB part of which I would like the feature count without actually counting manually (I must have 200+).
Is there a way to get that kind of info on a part document in Solid Edge? I've looked at the macro folder and haven't found anything. A breakdown list of...
In a part file, I have created an angled plane about 30 degrees from the top plane.
In the sketch environment on this plane, I see the Front plane as a vertical line. I try to use it as reference for mirrored elements, or place dimensions to it, and I can't. I can't use any constraint on it...
I have to provide a STEP file of an assembly, but with the components exploded.
I figured I'd do it in the Explode/Render/Animate environment... But when I try to save the exploded configuration as STEP, SE tells me "The model contains no bodies. An output file will not be generated".
I would...
Hello guys,
I did a search but it came up empty.
I've inserted a scan of a hand-made sketch in a Sketch in a part file, for contruction purposes. Now I want to print out a Draft with ortho views of the part, while showing this scan.
No problem I thought, I can get sketches to be shown in a...
Hello guys,
Sometimes when in Sketch environment, I can't use the reference planes for dimensioning or constraining. I haven't discerned an intelligent pattern to this, it just happens sometimes. And more frequently in the past couple of days. I just deleted SE's Regedit entries yesterday, no...
Hello,
I have an odd problem after dividing a part using the Divide Part feature in the Surfacing tab of ST.
When I work in the child part, any surface I create from offset, copy face, inter-part copy etc. is transparent with black edges in shaded views, instead of being the green construction...
I've always used SE for modeling metal profiles and sheetmetal.
I'm a little out of my depth here.
I'm trying to model a shape that's like a water drop (or an egg) cut in half.
How would I go about it?
I'm unable to make anything with a sweep. It tells me geometry is self-intersecting.
Am I...
I've been wondering for some time about that. I remember reading that Solidworks or Inventor transited to DirectX from OpenGL as default some time ago.
I read the ReadMe on the DVD but it's not clear to me, and it's not specified in SE's Application Display setting.
Thanks!
Ok, this is freaking me out.
I've got this part file in which I've made a whole bunch of external sketches, and used them in features. They have all disappeared from the pathfinder. If I go to Tools --> Show All --> Sketches (*), I can see them in the 3d model, but not in the pathfinder.
I've...
Hello,
In draft mode, is there a way to have a callout to a sheetmetal's gage? I don't see it in the Properties fields, only the Material. Right now I'm using the Title Property but that means I have to type it in the .psm properties box, a solution I don't like since typos could incur...

Hello guys,
Newbie here says hello. I've been evaluating Solid Edge (V18 because we are still on Win2k, can you believe it) for the past two months, and comparing with Solidworks and Inventor.
I've come to the conclusion that in the two environments that most matter to us (frames and...
