AD Expert V24:
The new library feature is promising for future use, especially for generating standardparts.
In a forumthread I came across information telling that hidden in Alibre there is a library for fasteners.
I downloaded it and find it very useful.
Why is it not default when installing Alibre?
Are there other hidden treasures in Alibre?
Then to the matter for this thread:
Being in an assembly I start the library tool - start generate - choose ISO fasteners - bolts and screws - hexagon socked head - ISO 4762.
At the left bottom there is a field for filename.
Here I want to type i.e. Unbrako M16x50 as part name.
But it is not possible to use all letters on the keyboard.
When I try letter lower case "r" nothing happens, but upper case "R" is OK.
Seems that keyboard shortkey is activated when typing.
"r" starts rotate, "m" starts measure tool and so on.
Alibre team: Please fix this in V25 - thank you.
