Tx in advance! Vigy!

Hi guys. I’m trying to import multiple CAD file that share the same components files without becoming unique. SU-16 will automatically make the new import components unique which slows down my model and makes them difficult to modify at once. does anyone know if and how I can fix this problem?.

Thanks. Vigy

Thanks Dave, But I mostly use SU dimension since I can have them automatically displayed in my Dynamic Components (and they automatically readjust when modifying model)

Well, you have to agree that the text and dimension preference are very poor in SU, hope they will improve.

Thanks Guys, I’ll just have to added to my wish list

Hi guys, I manage my dimension in SU (since it’s easier to manage and auto modify them) so I would like to know if there is any way to add highlight to the text or dimension backgrounds so I can read it when it’s above other geometry. Thanks in advance!

Yes!!, Thanks Box.

Hi guys, I’m looking for an older post by one of the gentleman regarding a custom sale-link for two types computer systems with already set features, please if anyone can link it here I would appreciate it.

Thanks…

When I export to PDF and then open it in Adobe, Layer Panel will be hidden so I will have to click on the left side icon to activate it. I have notes that some PDF’s have the panel open automatically then launch. Is this something I can do in LO or only true Adobe Pro?

(Please note I’m referring to the layer panel not layers itself)

Thanks in advance… Victor

Hi guys,

I did some 3d drawing for product casting (outsource manufacture), but at the end I decided to redraw them in 2D because I was concerned that the product surface will not have a 100% smooth curved finish (Product has Chrome Finish)

At first I draw my 3D product in millimeter and changed the segments length less than a millimeter but as I kept on modeling I piled up too many poly lines that SU couldn’t handle it anymore, so I end up drawing it in 2D, then export it in DXF so that my outsource could get the real curved radius dimension correct.

So I wonder to myself “Is SU the right method for professional casting, or not?

So what are my alternatives?
Is it ok (in the professional world) to draw something in 3D with les segments and note the manufacture that it must be with smooth curved finish? If so how will they know when it’s a real radius or just an angle? Or I will just need to draw it in a different program e.g. Max or Blend?

Thanks in advance,
Victor.

Thanks Walt!

Added a “LED light stand” on deck, draw it dynamic so I can easily adjusted for light pointing position.

Hi Guys;
I'm visiting SketchUcation daily now, great site, wonderful community. Just wanted to share some of my work, well it’s not the traditional wood work you see here but more of a modern style, Hope you like it

12"H Display: 3/8” thick glass UV bonded, with pull out deck and glass front.
Base: LP material and post Laminate or paint job on MDF.

Steve, It all work very well
Thanks Again!

Victor

OOOH WOW! This is wonderful Steve, and it work great. Thanks a million!
As you mention, material not needed but layers would be nice if I'm allowed to have audacity to do so.

Hi Steve,

Attached a sample.

Thanks so much, Victor

Import A Cut List.zip

Well Dave, I do most of my models from scratch, and I make them to dynamic components as well, but I have some old Cut Rite programs with lots of parts and would like to review them in SU.

Yes indeed, and also detect if anything is programmed wrong.

Steve, thanks for your response!

My priority is to have simple rectangular boards, but I never wrote anything in Ruby so it's not that simple for me. and yes it would be nice to have them separated (I didn't want to complicate things)
