since 2010 I am using M-Files (Server V10.2 / Client 11.1) to manage all project related files - from all CAD, photos, e-mails, etc. to complete procurement (~ 50GB \ > 70k files) I hope it will continue to work - anything else would be an economical disaster.

is there anywhere a setting (or at least a hope for the future) to get more than 4 favorite materials ? ... imho that is a bit too less - and i don't understand why there is a limitation at all ...

For me it was not clear, that one have to set the parts material in design-explorer - and only that way. AD does not assign the material if you do it as before V22: go to design-properties and select a material ...

ok ... maybe I'm doing something completely wrong, but - how the f*** do I assign a material to parts created in V22 ? (I do not have that problem on parts created in earlier versions of AD ...) design properties - materials - change material - choose one - hit apply (materials window)...

i think I lost some fundamental functionality .... or is there any chance or possibility to bring back the linkage between materials and the (or any) M-Files property ?

ok .. found it ... thanks a lot will this be solved by V22 ??

(maybe this is pointed out somewhere else - but could not find a specific thread by a quick search ...) for whatever reason Alibre (V21 [21034]) is scaling the width of all lines with the scale of the view. This is imho useless in any way and very annoying - or is there a particular usage for...

don't get me wrong, but this is how some software works - not sheet-metal, and even if another (like SolidWorks) works this way, this is not a excuse for doing it wrong. These flanges absolutely needs some manually post-processing - and I cannot believe, that a software like Alibre is not able...

creating a flange that is smaller than the tab or previous flange, alibre automatically adds a bend relief (if needed). But if the created flange is greater than the bend it does not have these reliefs and I have to add them manually.

yes ... advanced search - last modified - is after - date

If you already have subassemblies, why don't you edit only these ?

the operation you are asking for is: boolean

for a assembly boolean it is not necessary to keep the ASM The fastest and easiest way is to export as ACIS/SAT and reimport and save that as a part.

yes, I can :) but this doesn't help you ... I have lofted the 2 circles, then loft-cut the groove, then the fillet

as in the most cases it is wise to split into different features keep each sketch as simple as possible

unfortunately there is no option for that - or I haven't found it yet ... :|

the first question always has to be: what are you expecting from turning an assembly into a single part ? / what is your intention to do so ? If you need each part clearly, with its features, colors etc. use this assembly as a subassembly. If you import a step or sat or whatever file, it is...

as david said a boolean could work, Part C = Part A +/- Part B If you need only some geometries from Part A or Part B, you could create an assembly of A+B and model Part C in dependence of A and B using project to sketch method.
