    Using assembly "scenes" in drafting views

    Hi, You can find the scene linked to a view by a right click on the view and modify links. You should see the scene name in the box. You can also point your view to a different scene from there. Myriam

    DRAFTING TABLE QUESTION

    Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to put a line across a box of a table, so the line links 2 opposite corners ? I have to draw a line everytime and it is not link to the corners. When I modify the table, I have to redo these lines. Thanks Myriam

    constraining sub-assemblies in an assembly

    Hi astronomer, you can use Analyze-constraint to understand better what is going on with the constraints. I see what you try to do is to modify the sub-assembly in an higher assembly. Maybe to make this sub-assembly flexible in your assembly will solve it. Look the help for more info. Myriam

    Catia V5 R18 appears to be a lemon

    Hi Maybe it has nothing to do with it,but in Tools-Option, under General - Parameters and Measure, there is the Measure Tool tab and maybe the automatic updates in a part and product are not checked. If yes, then I really don't understand what is going on. Myriam

    Compare 2 Catia v5 drawings

    Hi Hzulu, The sales guy didn't quite understand what we got here, so yes, he was talking about the DMU 2D viewer. Now, we have the wrong license to try the tool! Anyways, he did a demo and there is a tool in 2D viewer for you to annotate and take screen grabs. I am not sure if you can do a save...

    Compare 2 Catia v5 drawings

    Hi, Both of your techniques work. The tool I am looking for is a compare icon, or something like that, which you put everything same in color A, color B for different on dwg 1 and color C for different on dwg 2. I think Catia has this tool only in DMU. Does anyone use it ? Myriam

    Compare 2 Catia v5 drawings

    Hi all, I am aware there is a way to compare two v5 drawings with DMU 2D viewer. But I heard it could be done without that DMU license and acts like the v4 line on line. Does anyone knows about it ? Thanks Myriam

    Using Assembly Scenes In Drafting

    Hi all, Scenes are usefull on drawing, I use it to show diffrent states of a suspension assembly. The only problem I find is that you can not, or I did not find the way so far, add a new part in an already created scene. I think replace work, but if you have no part to replace, nothing can be...

    Drag and drop a Part in a Product

    Hi, where I am working now, I am unable to drag an open CATPart and drop it in an open CTAProduct. I have to insert existing component everytime and it is annoying. Does anyone knows what setting I need to change so it is possible? Thanks Myriam

    Check the links within an Assembly

    Hi I am not 100% sure, but I think through File-->Desk or Tools-->Product Management, the non synchronized files will be mentionned in the status column. Myriam

    drafting view settings

    Hi all, Finally got this thing fixed. The video card used and the anti-alising function of catia are not a good mix. We had to uncheck the box, change the card settings, and restart catia. Now, we see the line thickness in drafting. Myriam

    drafting view settings

    Hi all, The computers having problems use a different graphic card. We did updated the driver, but it does not make it. I have never heard of these, and think it could be the reason why these computers do not show the lines properly. Thanks to all for your help. Myriam

    drafting view settings

    Hi, Thank you all. I haven t found the solution yet. I really thinks it has to do with the Settings. I have learned that there are 3 places where Catia looks for settings, so I guess that s where the problem is. I will let you know when I resolve this. Hey Joel Contente d avoir de tes news : )

    drafting view settings

    Hi all, Thanks for all the ideas. I copied and paste the settings of my computer, which are ok, on the computer with a problem. I did restart catia, but it did not change anything. I do not see what else it can be. But thanks for all your help. Myriam
