Hi All,
I'm using ST3 MP2 is there anyway to import point cloud data from a xyz file?
I believe SW has this ability but I cannot find anything for SE ST3.
Are there any reliable addins/plugins that give SE this ability?
Cheers
Hi All,
Can somebody who is using ST2 Traditional Sheet Metal. Check for the hem command location.
Help states: Home tab?Sheet Metal group?Bends.
But mine not there!
I can easily access it through the quick access toolbar, but cannot find it in the ribbon bar system.

Its good to see that someone is thinking of the standalone SE users for a change. Does exactly what it says on the box and fast. Price is very good too.
Hi All,
Anybody experienced with the frame command.
I have a project that requires lots of frames to be made from profiles similar to RHS (or SHS). But with up-stands of various types.
If all the sides of the frame are of the same type there are no issues and everything works fine.
The 2...
Hi All,
In draft 2D model view, is there a way to see the 2D reference point 0,0 without switching the grid on.
The drawing grid origin is set to the drawing sheet (0,0) coordinate.
The 2D grid options have taken a nose dive since ST

Hi All,
I seem to have a problem with mirroring assemblies.
I have 2 models that are mirrored about a plane to create 4 models. i.e. 1 assembly.
2 days ago I used the same models and mirrored successfully and I have this model on back-up to prove that it works.
1 day ago, I installed ST2 -...
Hi All,
Before you read this is not intended as a thread for SE verse SW. :-)
I’m a long term user of Solidedge (started in 1998) and I’m quite happy with the system. But my company (I’m the owner/operator) is growing at a good rate, which is nice in these present times.
I’m looking at buying...
Hi All,
I've been on a project for the last couple of months that requires me to use draw in View mode extensively. Although I'm happy with the way it works, I do have one big gripe.
When entering drawing in View mode, there is no way of knowing which line type or line width is current. I have...
Hi All,
Is there a quick method of changing the font size on individual callouts, instead of wading though the properties?
Sure I can change the font Scale with the drop-down box, but I feel this is not correct.
Also I'm certain that I could copy & paste balloon annotations in V20, but in ST...
Hi All,
Is it possible to create new hatch (fill) styles or import ready to use hatch styles from AutoCAD Hatch Patterns.
If so how would one go about this?
if not, why not? or is that just being silly expecting a answer to why not ;-)

Hi All,
While placing the principle view from the view wizard in draft, I used to be able to scale to suit myself (in V20), by selecting a ratio from a list.
In ST2 MP3 whoops MP2, I do not have that luxury as there is only one ratio to choose from. I have to place the view then scale to...
Hi All,
Is there an easy way to delete relationships in trad assembly.
It's a tad frustrating to select the relationship, then re-select before being allowed to delete.
I've used the Relationship Assistant to block delete relationships, but this seems overkill.

Hi All
Does anyone have problems with visual dimensions while using dynamic edit? This example (see attached PDF) is in ST2 traditional
As you can seen the dimensions are unreadable
Is there setting I’m missing
This wasn’t an issue while using V20, my setup and system are identical as V20...
Forum Poll.
There are several regular contributors to this SE forum. I suspect there a large number of lurkers too.
Out of personal interest what version are you using and which category do you fall in to?
1. ST2
a. Trad
b. Sync
c. Combination
2. ST1

Hi All,
Is anybody out there using ST2 sync sheet metal?
What are your thoughts?
Is there any other sync sheet metal tutorials apart from the one supplied with ST?
The workflow for creating parts is very similar to trad. But when it comes to changes the workflow is completely different and...
I was having a ponder the other day about the most annoying things in Solid Edge and possibly the most aggravating would be having the HELP button where the Cancel button should be on the Profile Error Assistant.
This one gets me every time...........
