Have a look at this thread. https://www.alibre.com/forum/index.php?threads/window-7-wont-connect-to-server-for-upgrade.23906/ Dave

Thank you, I did a test run using only one folder and it worked fine. The assembly opened with out any issues, so it seems. Dave

I guess that this has probably been beat to death here, but I have not found the answer to my question. I have a new PC and would like to copy all my Alibre work (files) from my old PC to the new one. I have probably well over a thousand files from many different projects, I can't imagine the...

Looks like I'm not the only one getting the strange file names. Dave

Interesting, so it must be something with my antique operating system? Thanks Harold. Dave

It is not just one file it's all of them, files from customers and anything I download from McMaster Carr. Attached is a recent one, maybe there is something in that the system doesn't like. Dave

Thanks Harold, I'm really starting to think about a new PC. Dave

I have noticed when saving imported STEP files Alibre will blow away the first two characters of the file name and replace them with symbols when saving the part. I was wondering if anyone else is seeing this and/or what might be causing it? I have version 26 running on Windows 7, I don't recall...

I'm seeing it but I'm only missing the d. I remember a few versions back I had a similar problem but it was in the upper left corner, I got so that I just ignored it. I hadn't noticed the missing d until I saw your post and checked. I do have pretty old equipment so tend to chalk things up to...

Thank you! That worked, and I'm up and running. Dave

Having the same issue with my HP Z600 Windows 7 Workstation. I was able to download and install it, but no success in getting it to run. Do I need to start shopping for a new PC? I have never had any issues with updates before. Dave

Yes, while playing around trying to get the limit constraint to work, more often that not I would hit the close button instead of the green check mark icon. My vote would be to move at least the green check mark to the bottom of the dialog, or add an apply button. Dave

Thanks for all the great advice guys, I have learned that there is more than one way to make this work. Dave

Hi Guys I'm trying to constrain a pin to a slot, (see picture) nothing I have tried will make it work. I want the pin to be able to move the length of the slot. I have been successful to get the pin to stop at one end but not the other. Could someone enlighten me if this can be done, and the...

I have noticed with Ver. 21 the maximized window is chopped off a little bit on all four sides. I don't recall seeing this before the upgrade. It does it with both legacy display and Hoops? Any ideas? has anyone else noticed this? My display resolution (recommended for my monitor) is 1920 x...

You may find that if you disable Hoops, at least some of your problems will go away; the light shading seems to be related to Hoops also. I too hope that the PDF issue gets fixed. Dave

Are you using legacy graphics or the updated HOOPS? Dave

I still use it occasionally, mostly to open old Auto CAD files. Tired this evening and it still opened up and runs fine. Dave

I have noticed this with the new version, Alibre Design™ Expert Version: 2019 64-bit [Build 20072] When working on drawings I lose the ability to edit any dimensions, when you hover over a dimension it normally turns red and you can drag it around. Or left click on it to bring up the...

Thank you Ralf, that has solved it. I used to have it set to Detect Hardware, not sure why or how it got changed. Dave
