    DXF Export Location

    When I export to DXF or print to PDF, it goes to the last directory I may have accessed, not necessarily the directory of the file I currently have open. Publish to PDF does go to the directory of the file being worked on. Alibre has always been like this - yes, it would be much preferred that...

    How to get a object along a object line

    Ah, that will be another step, other than original request.... I copied your Sketch 1 and created a new sketch on plane 4 that will be used for an extrude cut, through the whole part and ending at the geometry at the part end. This will remove the excess.

    Sheet Metal Pattern Fail

    Thanks all for reviewing the part. I've tried several variations of creating this pattern, short of creating an individual feature for each of the hex (eek). I've also tried recreating the pattern in a new part but fails the same way. I've sent the file to support in the hopes that it could...
