Hello all. I have this 3d printed part that I've been working on as shown attached. This was print #4 and while I am satisfied with it, I would like to have it fit the bezel better. I do not have a 3d scan. I'm using v27. Have a decade of Alibre experience but am struggling with how to get...

I am changing jobs and will not be using Alibre after tomorrow. It has been fun learning from all of you folks on here. I truly loved this forum and the people. Everyone was so helpful. Most often someone here would have the answer to any question I had, or could get me pointed in the right...

First, checking if this is normal behavior? If so, I will be submitting ticket to enhance this. I created a global parameters file, with named values of G-D01, G-D02, etc... I then added comments to them which describe what the value is for. Next, I created my part file, and linked the...

Why is there no RMB Click > Paste available in the menu after you have copied a note, or anything for that matter? I can RMB Click and Cut, Copy, 2D Drawing Mode. Example: Copying this note, but then no option to RMB option to paste it. Must take hands off of the mouse and find Ctrl+V...

In 2D drawing workspace, is it a known issue that Ordinate Dimensions are not available for retargeting when you reproject views?

Is there a way to increase the number of Undo operations that can be performed? If not, that would sure be a nice update!

When you have a part like this drawn, and you utilize the "Centerline" tool to generate the centerline for the width/length, they come up short due to the radii on the OD of part. The centerline can then be manually manipulated to drag it out and extend it. Now I'll admit that this is...

See below. Aside from modifying the callout itself, is there a way to change the tolerance to 2 places on this? It seems that anytime I modify an item in RED, it seems to have a mind of its own when I reopen the drawing months later.

Just posting here to see if this is a known issue. Two holes, created with Hole Tool as the same feature. One goes thru, the other does not. Both are the same #10-32 thread, but are represented differently.>>>>

I was thinking today, I wonder how many people use the software just themselves? And how many might be using the software in a company, where multiple users could be accessing the same files?

Is there a way to easily step down thru your model, from start to finish? I realize you can "Grab" the "Dogbone" and drag it, but honestly, it is difficult to do that 1 by 1. It would sure be convenient if the Page Up and Page Down buttons would step you down thru the Features (or something...

I have this shape that I am trying to extrude, however, it wont. The geometry is coming from a .dxf file. Analyzing the sketch does not show any errors. The extrusion shows:

I submitted a ticket for this. Just ran into an issue using configurations, which was totally unexpected. Part as shown. The small OD extrusion is different lengths, creating a long and short version of the part. This feature, Extrusion<2>, was created using the "From Geometry" Method...

I have noticed this before on some odd shapes, but this simple Hex will not permit me to place my fillet the entire way around the base of this Hex shape. Does anyone know why? I have to create an addition fillet feature to select the 6th edge of the part.

Well running V26 now. After about a week now of using it. I like it. There are a lot of nice things. I especially like the dark mode and all of the improvements on the Drawings Side. The display of things is better and all around it was a nice update. Would like to see the Measure Tool...

Good day all, I am working on several parts that involves a Boolean Subtract. For simplicity sake, lets assume that the Tangent Constraint shown below, is the only value which is different among the 10 parts. I expected that I could simply go into the Equation Editor for each part, change...

See screenshot attached. Text for notes and the text from the drawing template itself appear to be auto-placed on the "Continuous" Layer. Despite this layer being set to my "green" color, the text ALWAYS stays "black" in Alibre. Is there no way to control this? In Screenshot below...

Goal: Select one or several dimensions on my drawing. Press a Hot Key that would then apply a specific Dim Style from the Template to the chosen dimensions. Is that possible? Or more randomly, is there a way to "record a macro" and assign to a hot key? Is that what Scripts are?

Having troubles with hatching on a 2D drawing. We need to show an area that gets coated as part of a secondary process. Have been unsuccessful. Example of what I'm looking to do accomplish below with the gray areas. (note this was a customer print generated in another software). Here is...

Is there a way to control the Default Filetypes for the export options. In example attached, I prefer to use Step AP 242 File, versus Step AP 203. It sounds trivial, but it is 2 extra mouse-clicks every time I export a file. It adds up though. The same is true for DWG Files.. It defaults...
