Is there any way to do 3D dwg output? Sycode seems to be dead. No development since 3D Systems bought it... :? As always, Thank you in advance.

Geomagic will not convert this part to sheetmetal without omitting one of the flanges. What am I missing? Part was imported as a step file. Thoughts? Help? Thank you, Nick

How many here know that a subscription is required to transfer your license between computers? I didn't. Note by Alibre: This is not the policy. Please see end for comment. I was told (lied too?) by the Alibre rep when I purchased my license 2 years ago, that I could transfer whenever I wanted...

From today's (7-11-2011) email regarding licensing: Really!? According to the letter Bob and Bob alone can use the seat... Most other companies don't care who uses the seat as long as only one person/one seat is being used at a time. And are you telling me a CAD manager cannot call in for...

How do I get Alibre to export separate faces to *.bip? See my original post (that got moved) here.

Am I missing something in this month's newsletter tech tip? No matter what I try I have not been able to produce seperate faces in a *.bip file from Alibre. The only time I get seperate parts is when it is an assembly. I would love for this to work if someone can point me to the procedures.

How would you do a pair of diagonal bends used to stiffen a piece of sheetmetal? They are only a few degrees. Anyone familar with sheetmetal work will know what I am talking about. Thanks for any help, Nick

How do I measure between these two planes (see screenshot)? I can measure between some other planes but not these two. Is this a bug? Thanks for any help, Nick

Why doesn't Alibre support a side-by-side install of 32bit and 64bit since not all of the plugins/tools work in the 64bit version?

I am having problems with faces disapearing when I insert a part into an assembly. It looks fine in part creation/edit, but as soon as it's in an assembly some of the faces turn transparent. Part was created from a moi3D file. It doesn't matter what format I export/import. See attached pics...
