I've always wondered why companies tend to develop for Apple before developping for Android. I understand that Apple is a big company, but Android covers a pretty wide range of devices, which would allow for a broader audience IMO. Edit: Thought this was worth a mention. image.png Yeah, I'm not a b...

This looks interesting. Concidering it is done within the boundaries of the Siemens Parasolid engine, why would someone want to use Shapr3D rather then SolidWorks, and vice versa..? Don't get me wrong, it looks great and I'm all for new stuff coming out, but this feels like a SolidWorks developped ...

Im excited for this!

Im wainting for the new IPAD Pro to come out as that's what ill be mostly using it on.

I hope when I do come to use it it isn't disappointing.

There are at least three ways to do something very similar in SW. 1. Set your bolt up with a Mate Reference. When you drag and drop it into an Assembly you can drop it so that concentric and coincident mates are applied (first screenshot). It takes a little practice to get the hang of it, but it wo...

This was a few years ago. Things might have changed, or my faulty memory may be at play. Let's say you want to constrain this fastener to this panel. image.png In solidworks I would pick the face of the panel, and the underhead of the bolt and create a coincidence mate. Then I would select the cyli...

oh really, how so?

What is it you don't like about 2020? Is there a specific feature that is giving you problems? Something I've found hard but maybe it's just me not being proficient in the software yet is Mating, simple mates I find no problems but when mating to a curved surface it makes me punch the screen. I'm s...

I've been using Solidworks since 2009, making models and then drawings used to build the stuff shown in the videos below. You said not by choice. What part, Solidworks itself, or version 2020? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdjgzlHZmRY&t=10s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XXJqEY-sXk&t=26...

I'm using Solidworks 2020 (not by choice) and working in the agricultural machinery manufacturing industry (engineering)

What about yourself?

Hopefully you will learn, grow and eventually be able to even contribute to help others!

I cant wait to be more involved.

Good Afternoon Everyone, Alex Here from the UK, Happy I found somewhere I can learn and ask questions about problems I'm having with my CAD software I hope to learn and grow. I will add a photo soon to my profile.

See you deep down in the comment section
