You can save about $1.50 on that used tape...No downside, AFAIK.

Hey guys, Has anyone been in touch with Tony Tieuli and Roasted By John lately? It's been a while, I was wondering how they're doing. I spoke with John a couple weeks ago. He's doing good and staying pretty busy with the pig roasting business. If you want to catch up with him, I think he's more act...

I have an ender 5 that was doing that (not stock, I upgraded control board, power supply, extruder, etc.). Randomly it would stop on long prints... I don't know for sure what the problem was/is. But I put a fan pushing air over the the control board. I don't know if it's heat related, but it's all I...

Check your graphics drivers on the various machines. Not talking about the typical "certified driver" cop-out. It might be worth while to try various driver versions, depending on which version of SW you're running. We have mostly identical CAD work stations throughout the department. Tha...

Adobe responded: https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2024/06/06/clarification-adobe-terms-of-use Didn't read the whole thing. But they are saying that they only use licensed material to train their AI. (I stopped reading at that point). I may be being picky, but I didn't see where they pointed out th...

You wouldn't have these problems if you'd quit using French... That's a bit of a tough one. Maybe you could use a macro in Bluebeam Revu to search and replace all instances of these words and fix it after the translation is made. But, that would require the "Extreme" version of Revu to ge...

It doesn't always say 'Answered'. It may say 'Updated' if an author or commenter edited the post or a reply/comment. It will also say 'Validated' if the post has been marked that way. That whole area is still a bit work in progress as far as the best way to arrange things. Can you get it to be a li...

You can also use a Design Table. You are using a previous version of SW than what I have installed. So, I can't post a file that you can open.
Seeing your original post, I thought you had a specific need to do it the way you were.

On my phone so can't really see the animation. But try not using underscores in your variable names.
About 10 years ago underscores in custom property names gave me all kinds of weird results...and it wasn't documented anywhere!

Thanks,
When I looked at YoutubeTV it was expensive...
Yep, still expensive:

Though, I guess it's all relative. We don't watch a whole lot of TV and have a long backlog of shows to catch up on.

Which streaming service has that many channels?

I wonder how many small companies are going broke investing in this hoping that it'll fix itself eventually. I think I asked elsewhere for some examples of people/companies that were using it successfully for production development. I don't think I got an answer. Though I guess that depends on the ...

I personally dislike all the spyware and such they put in smart TVs lately. I will take a monitor any day, though it's a bit more. I have a fairly large UHD monitor that I use for my school work. For a second, I tried an older 1080p flat screen I somehow acquired somewhere, but it looked like crap ...

I've been using a 4k TV for years without too much trouble at home as a computer monitor. Initially SW didn't play well with 4k at all, but it's been fine for a while. I don't do gaming, so lag hasn't been an issue or I just don't notice it. But, if it's for work, just get a monitor! This is the 32&...

The Platform just purged all my connections.

"take an assembly and save it as an .ipt" - Derive the assembly into ipt. It won't make it multi-body. Weldment is FrameGen in IV. SW use multi-body, IV use assembly. SW totally screw up Cut List, Part List and BOM with it. They never planned anyone will put Weldment in assembly. 3DSketch...

A bit rich considering that we get constantly bombarded with marketing speak and managerial word salad from Solidworks and Dassault. Look at the new license scheme which was so clear and well communicated by the company that even VAR's didn't understand it enough to convey what it actually all mean...
