Listing for Engineering Assistance Using AD Below is a listing from http://www.Guru.com. I do not have the time to pursue, but figured someone here could write up a proposal if they are looking for some work. I have had limited success with getting work on this site in the...

AD Advertising AD must be putting up some bucks. I just got an email from mcad central.com advertising AD. That was all that was on the email. No it was not the daily email you get from mcadcentral but an entire page devoted to AD. I bet this...

Configuration BOM Custom Template Attached is a very basic configuration BOM template. This is discussed in the following link: http://www.alibre.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=855 Also in the zip file is a BMP file showing the setup. Mark

New Feature or Not I just noticed that if I double click on a inactive sketch, the sketch automatically opens. This is also the case for planes, points and axis. Is this something with V9 or have I been doing extra work? Mark

Constraints Box I know I have seen this request at one point but, how about having the constraints box(at the least) a tear-away/floating box. think about how many time during the day/evening you open that constraint box :shock: ! Mark

Free Press for Alibre I was just perusing my January edition of Product Design & Development and came across an article(Q & A) in which Alibre's name was used as a CAD system of choice. http://redigitaleditions.com/activemaga ... dd/pdd.asp This is...

Spaceball Panning I have both a Spaceball 5000 and 4000 and use them in Alibre, Solidworks and Rhino. The question I have is anyone else have a very limited response to panning left and right in Alibre? All other movements work fine and it is not a...

Assembly with the new service pack In the release prior to this latest service pack the assembly and part interaction seemed to flow nice. 1. Open assembly 2. Open part from within assembly and make changes in an uncluttered environment. 3. Close part after making...

Part Editing with Parent Assembly Open Scenario: I am working in an assembly, adding parts, apply constraints,etc. I decide to CTRL/SHIFT edit a part in its own window(opening part through the assembly) After noodling around with the part, adding a boss here...

Coincident Endpoints Is there a way to easily remove coincident relationships between two line endpoints, or a line endpoint bisecting coincident to another line? With other constrain types, all that is required is to delete the symbol. Currently I...

References Inaccessible in Assemblies When I try to edit a part within an assembly, all the references from the other parts in the assembly disappear, not allowing me access any of these references(planes, axis, points etc.). This can't be normal, can it? Mark

splitting an enclosure I have created a plastic enclosure as a single part and would like to split this part along the parting line and have these two parts(top and bottom half) still relate to one another. Is this possible? I thought I saw this issue...

Boss Loft and Help Why is it that I get the measurement tool help index when I hit the help "?" in the boss loft box? Does this happen to anyone else or am I just lucky? Mark

Good Write-up on Alibre Not sure if anyone has seen this article. Take a look: http://manufacturing.cadalyst.com/manuf ... ?id=164999 Sounds like another very satified customer.

Algor DesignCheck Prior to purchasing the Pro version of AD, I did , what I thought was some pretty in-depth reasearch between Basic and Pro and finally decided to purchase the Pro version, partly because of the Algor (feature limited)software that...

offsets I have searched this forum and have not been able to find anywhere a request for offset figures with dimensions. Alot of time can be saved if one does not have to go back and add dimensions after offsetting the figures. Ramblin'...

Inserting New Part into Assembly When inserting a NEW part into an assembly it appears as thought it automatically inserts the part at the assembly origin, but it does not seem to be constrained at all, then I am tossed into the part edit mode without this part...

Repository and Version History Is it possible to open a previous version of a part through the Local Rep? I attempted this, but am only able to open a read only file, all the other options are grayed out. Mark
