Kinematics add in Sorry I didn't know the name of the product Alibre uses. Yes the VN-Motion product is what I was referring to.

Kinematics add in I know there's a kinematics add in for expert but does anyone know if there's a way to get just this and if so is it cheaper than upgrading to expert from Pro?

Thanks That's probably what I'll do if it looks like I'll be doing any mobile CAD work. I just wondered if there were any good macros or something that allow people to use the onboard equipment.

Thanks for the tips all Thanks for the tips. I wasn't aware of that connexion product. I'll look into one of those.

Laptop touchpad operation I just got a new laptop that has a touchpad. Do any laptop users out there have any tips to make this more user friendly with Alibre? I'm specifically interested in pan, zoom rotate functionality.

Where are the document templates? Can you tell me where to locate the default document templates. I'm sure you're on to the reason why I can't get defaults to stick.

Yeah I agree it seems like all the settings in the properties menu that should apply across all in the current and system don't seem to behave that way. Sometimes I think it's probably a good thing it didn't work on the system but I know...

Thanks for replying I did not know that. I'll give it a try. Thanks again

Assembly replace I can't remember if I've seen this before... Configurations may help in this area but it would be nice if you could replace one component for another in an assembly. It should have considerations for the potential that assembly...

Multiple selections In assembly mode I realized that you can't select multiple items in the menu tree and apply options like hide, show reference geometry, color etc. on the list of parts. I think this needs to be added. It should be executed like...

Another familiar request I've seen this suggestion several times before. I agree that more or more obvious indications of the state of the current sketch. Someone mentioned a mouse over with the dimension name. How about the same thing for geometry status.

Agreed I like this suggestion. It would be helpful to know what dimension number you have. I also think it would be nice to have some kind of mouse over to determine if a certain piece of geometry was fully defined or needed constraints.

Good suggestion I agree a replace option would be valuable>

my message Thanks for the informatoin. The content central users section had quite a few things that I think I will be able to use. I've got it bookmarked for future use. Thanks again

Edge projection Greg I'm glad that you agree about the importance of this. I was hoping to garner some support using this thread and the poll I created in one of the other sections on the site. I'd appreciate the opportunity to work with others...

Edge projection I guess I never thought about the 2d-3d thing. You're probably on to something there. Hopefully we can get some interest here though. I don't think this is ever going to get fixed if we don't get enough people to join in. I...

Does anyone know where you can download electrical models I'm looking for models of things like residential switch assemblies, standard US electrical plugs, conduit enclosures and conduit strain reliefs etc. I've tried the 2 Alibre libraries and places like Part Spec. but can't seem to find...

Edge projection I'm hoping to drum up support for improvements to the edge projection capabilities. If you think the dev team should be working on this please voice your oppinion. Also if you feel strongly about this I encourage you to post a...

Thanks for replying Thanks guys for your support of this. I also encourage you to post an incident on the Alibre support site. We also need to get the ear of the other supporters of this forum. I know people must be suffering in silence on this. This...

Cutout views I think they need to consider adding a cutout section view. This is very useful in assemblies to be able to see and dimension to features that would are hidden. Usually you sketch a spline in the area and either specify a depth or...
