    Lofting intersecting planes

    Thanks for the reply. After looking at your part I did see something that I was doing wrong. Although I did project the first two sketches onto the third plane to create the sweep contour, I made this third sweep sketch closed. I have since corrected this but I still can not get the loft to...

    Lofting intersecting planes

    Traceparts ANSI fasteners?

    I am trying to find a simple 4-40 cup point set screw in Traceparts. I cant even seem to find the ANSI section. EVERYTHING is METRIC! I remember imperial sizes were hard to find but now I cant find them at all! Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks Todd

    Key board shortcut for"Insert Assmebly Constraint"

    Is there a keyboard short cut for the "Insert Assembly constraint"? I have found the "Quick Constraint" <cntl>Q but I do not know where/how to set up the "Insert Assembly constraint" keyboard shortcut.

    Automatically add drill bit number to call out?

    Understood. Material will definitely make a difference, but there are several "standards" that I am always inserting into the drawings. This is how my process generally goes: I want to make a tapped hole for a say 10-24 in T6061 aluminum. Go to look-up table ->So for a 75% thread I need to...

    Automatically add drill bit number to call out?

    Group, Is there a way to get Alibre to automatically add the drill bit number to a drawing/part when a hole is specified. For example: if I select a 6-32 UNC-2B from the insert Hole pop-up with the source specified as Tap drill diameter. The Hole call out it will display ".115 6-32 UNC". I...
