2d drawing

Hi, I'm very new to Alibre. If I want to make a 2d drawing using an externally created assembly as a guide, what are my options? Ideally, I would be able to import the assembly, design around it, and then delete it, leaving only the part. I know that it's possible to use assembly boolean...

HI. When I create a Sheet Metal part from 3D part, I get a Sheet Metal part with base part coordinate system. When create a drawing, I can positioning the part at such an angle or define new part view, where the plate is perpendicular to the screen (but still is rotated in this plane). Do...

In a 2D drawing, I'm displaying all measurements with dual dimensions (mm & in). When I set a tolerance on the primary, it is properly converted to the tolerance on the alternate dimension. However, if I override the dimension value, it does not get converted in the alternate dimension. For...

Hello, I am a new user to CAD Software and Alibre in general. I was wondering if there is a way to write a feature and feature control frame as follow in the picture? Is there a way to write 2X and then the dimension as in Symbol "B"? Also how would I write the lower control frame that is...

I need to use 2D drawings to export outlines for CNC/Laser cutting. Problem is many of the parts in the assembly do not align to any normal workspace reference plane. So how can I control the reference so that I have an accurate 2D drawing outline of the part, perpendicular to that part...

Iker Landaluce I have a doubt, in the 2D dragging section when I make a sketch this doesn’t have the same scale than the rest of the drawing. For example, if I´m drawing a line in a 1:10 drawing and I put a dimension of 4500 mm the line really measures 4500 mm in the drawing, instead of 450 mm...

Hi, my 2D drawings don't seem to display any shading/hatch pattern when I create a section view. Has anyone else found this?

G'day all: I have opened as support ticket for an issue I am having where the latest AD throws an exception, then crashes when I attempt to create a 2D drawing of a relatively simple assembly; I thought I would post here in case any others have experienced similar issues since installing AD...

Is it a bug, or have I missed an option somewhere, but if you selected an item on a 2D drawing (i.e. view or bitmap) for which you see a bounding box for the item; when you do a print (physical of virtual PDF printer), should you really still see the bounding box on the PDF or printed page...
