    SolidEdge Compatibility

    Hello all, Has anyone had any experience of running Solid Edge v18 on a Windows XP x64? We have a box which we tried to install it on but it whinges about not being able to find a valid licence whereas we've had no problems in the past on 32-bit XP. Any experiences? Thanks :)

    Cannot Explode subassemblies

    Any ideas why the explode environment is greyed out when I try to explode subassemblies? The user can explode the top level assemblies but not any subassemblies beneath the top level. I have been through and checked for dodgy relationships etc but there is nothing. Any ideas? Thanks

    Coordinate Dimensions

    Hi, I am having some trouble with coordinate dimensions in v18 SP12. Up until recently I haven't had any problems but now I seem to get some strange behaviour. After you add the base (0,0) dimension, the subsequent dimensions snap to it. The problem is that they don't always snap. If for...

    Accessing Properties

    Does anyone know how to access custom properties of a part through a drawing? I am writing some code which runs on a drawing but I also need to access some of the properties of the part/assembly that it references. Any ideas? Thanks

    Hello all, Any idea why the option to Switch to Sheet Metal (under Applications menu in Part environment) is greyed out. I have some geometry and have saved the part but cannot switch between environments. Thanks in advance.
