I didn't know I could do this with notes so I am glad to learn something new. You have to be outside of a drawing view when you right click for the paste option to show.

This has also happened to me. Right when I started using v26 two of the shortcut keys I use all the time didn't work. I checked to see if the shortcuts were still assigned to those keys and they were so they should have worked. They did start working at some point but every once in a while...

This is the method I use: 1. For the helical boss, under the advanced tab, select start and end condition natural and profile orientation normal. 2. Create a new axis selecting the end of the thread and the axis the helix was revolved around adjusting the location to the desired spot. 3. Select...

Jason, Do you have any hidden layers in the drawing for that viewport? I've experienced similar then realized the hidden layers must be within the title block for the drawing to print properly. Ken

Turn on "Automatically analyze sketch" in the system options and it will tell you before you close your sketch or extrude the sketch that there are problems. Ken

To get the line segment you need to create the hatch you can activate sketch in that view then add a line segment constraining the end points to the end of the arc and end of the line. The line segment can then be selected and the hatch area closed. Ken

You could expand the part in the design explorer to see the faces. Expand the faces and move your cursor over each face listed. They will highlight on the part. Click on it and it will be selected. Ken

Got it. Thanks for the help.

How do I add a select by layer tool in 2D drawings that was listed in the Product Features for 2017.1? I've looked at customizing toolbars but don't see anything there. Alibre Version 2017.1 64-bit [Build 18508] Ken

Same here. I can pan but no zoom.

Could the double click be the problem? Alibre seems a little slow to recognize the first line selection. Try clicking line wait 1/2 a second and click to position the zero dimension. Ken

If you click on the dimension the toolbar pops up that says "change dimension". In the suffix box you type the text you want and when you want to go to the second line press and hold control then enter to go to the second line. The suffix box only shows one line at a time but you can go through...

I don't know why I still have it but I received a book with v9.1 - Alibre Design 9.1 User Guide ©2006 and 585 pages. Ken

You are right, the help file is not very clear and is incorrect. The RMB functionality is there however if you right click on the feature above the sheets instead of the view of the BOM. Deleting the BOM view won't unlink it, but unlinking the BOM will delete the BOM view. Ken
