Very nice. Really enjoying these. I wish Solid Edge was better about displaying shortcuts. I don't know where I found ctrl+h for a zoom to selected plane or ctrl+i to zoom out to a home view or ctrl+f front. ctrl_T top L left, R right, etc. If you have any shortcuts to throw in that would be great maybe some that I haven't found to make movement faster. I''m used to software where every icon in the GUI has a shortcut tooltip on them so you can quickly use that function and not have to look things up.
Thank you very much for your videos. Your explanation is clear and concise. I have one suggestion for you if possible. Although I am beginner to SolidEdge I would like to see you explain little bit complicated project. Small robot, vehicle or something similar. Or few different types of gear wheels for example. Thanks in advance and keep doing great job like now! Regards!
Sir, what was the reason to uncheck ( mirror - Persist mirror activity ) in Dialog box, What would have happen if it wasn't unchecked. Please also give suggestions on your activities while you draw so that we viewers would know the importance why to check and uncheck . Thank you so much. Do reply
Dr, when you used mirror --- >Why didn't you simply select the object and then select the face of the end of the inner tube to create your two fins. Then, select the two fin set and copy-mirror those two about the end face of the existing pair. You would not have to do the extraneous math to get your 7.5mm dimension nor would you have had to construct the complication of making multiple drawing planes. Also, note - if you were to make three fins like you showed, you drastically complicate the digital model and induce errors to troubleshoot for wasted materials during production, later. If the part is fabricate out of sheet metal the digital system will likely analyze the digital model and deduce sheet stock to make 4 fins when you only would see 3. Because, the internal digital model you created would actually be one free floating fin and then two fins overlaid. Also, there would be a duplication of tube stock for the duplicated region also. And, if the part were to be a 3D print it may have extraneous issues when printed. Calling for denser material in some of the part. Or???
I´m going to give you feedback :) As you can see the last post from me was one year ago, I had no clue. Now I GOT it. You have such nice teaching style, it´s almost I expect a copy of Elon Musk´s rocket :) Thank you soo much.
Yeap, I got SolidEdge 6 Month ago, tried it and basically gave up because of the manual, which is awful, also the Video training material available were even more aweful, up to time Mohamed entered the stage, now I`m adavancing. Neverthless I would love to get even one basic video for the non mechnicals guys (like myself) , where for example a simple rectangle (a groundplate for a device) containing a bunch of holes, 4 holes in each corner. Ok, I can draw those 16 holes, step by step, but I`m an engineer and hate repetitive tasks. So I would like to make a group of 4 holes, attach all the dimensions and then copy&paste this group 4 times. Done. I somehow managed this, but....I`m sure this could be done better. Then at the after extrusion (looks nice), of course I forgot to add a few more holes, but how the hell can you get one or more holes into the plate. Here I´m currently struggeling, since hours. Solved it in the mean time, the magic was the "alt" and "shift" usage during dimension definition, wow this changed "live". Any help is really appreciated.
Have you tried the pattern command (there are about 5 different patterns such as rectangular, along curve, pattern by table, etc.) Your suggestion is well taken and an example will be posted. Thanks.
@@drmseif Yes I tried it, I somehow managed but not fully repeatable, as: I wanted to add four more holes to my body (a base plate for a saw station), for what ever reason I`m not able to place a hole (or a cricle and then do negativ extrusion) and define the location of this hole. What happens is, I place the hole on the TOP plane, then I wanted to define the X & Y coordinates, via the dimension tool, then the following happens, SolidEdge places the dimension BUT it does not adjust the location of the hole. The number in the dimension is then displayed with an underline, indicating (my guess) that this values is not true at the moment. Which I can confirm, because this value does match to the other dimensions I have on the TOP view. It must be something very simple what I´m doing wrong, any suggestions?
I agree with Tihomir! Your eplanations are real good. I learnt from your videos much. Please don't stop!
Thank you. I am glad that these videos are appreciated. More are coming soon.

By Watching your videos we keep on learning day by day. We practice as you teach us through your videos. God bless you for your efforts. Thank you
People like you make the world better :)
Thank you so much for the comment.
Another excellent tutorial, many thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
