Hi, thanks for the video. I’m creating a cut revolved feature . I want to have axis, plane and top face as reference to locate the feature. But couldn’t figure out to create a sketch place that will be independent of source part. I think I should create the sketch plane referring axis. But stuck on that, any help appreciated.
Could You help to restore external references for the parts that was made inside the assembly? after external saving for parts and renaming of folder/assembly name, part lost its references. and I don't understand how to restore.
Unfortunately, external references that are completely broken -shown with an X-in the feature tree are not able to be reattached and maintain that same exact reference. You will have to manually remove the broken external reference by deleting or respecifying any existing external relation in your features and sketches and remaking them manually. In order to avoid this issue becoming a problem in the future, I would recommend renaming parts or moving files using the SOLIDWORKS file utilities when you right-click on a file or working within a system like SOLIDWORKS PDM to manage your data and prevent this issue from happening in the future.
First of all, thank you for the tutorial. Using solidworks 2017 I can't include planes created with reference geometry in my featured parts, can't select them from the tree. Is this something about using 2017 version? Regards!
Awesome and perfect teacher. Thanks
Thank you so much!
Those Tips are a live saver!
Thanks for this information...
Great thanks
