I agree and I have sent in a request for a miterfold function with detailed description and video of how it would work about 4 years ago and the development team looked at it and added it to there list but gave to expected date of implementation. As for the sheetmetal I think you would be fine witho...

There are 2 ways I do my miterfolded parts in TopSolid Wood. 1.) I model the folded parts first and make parameters for the overall depth, width, & height & anything else I need to translate to the flat. Then for the flat draw a sketch and draw lines for miter folds and convert them to const...

Check if there a revision in the file this forces a file save as with the rev # added at the end of the file.

Use modify on the sub-assembly and in the dialogue there will be a button add new driving parameter. then either go to parameters with modify or go to the list in the tree and they should be there to merge.

The different symbols are based on key works example (Screw, Nut) that are coded into the software. The parameters showing into the display is based on if they are in the catalog and a driver. witch is contradictory cause you want one or the other not both because if you select add new driving param...

the fix is simple when you go to define a part for the first time in a file uncheck the make stock box before selecting ok and then it should remember that for all define parts going forward. the problem was if you ever checked it on for a part and left it on then every part defined following that o...

One thing I noticed is your using constrained positioning maybe for trouble shooting get rid of all your constrained positioning and just put this together with keypoints instead and see if there is a difference as its just a shot in the dark because I have never seen this glitch and I don't use con...

Also try different graphics settings to see if there an improvment

In-place sub-set is not meant to be used that way. if your making a component then you want to make sub-assemblies and include them in another assembly for multi-level deactivate (sub-component function). in place has limitations. I don't have problems with complex components myself just keep in min...

the file it is referring to is used by TopSolid application for the groove function and is made by missler and works with the programing but there is an option in settings to change the default tool used from the library. keep in mind this simple mill component is locally installed on every computer...

Yeah well its probably another reason why they are moving wood module to version 7 next year better core program.

Ghost Drilling

Define a Default view style and have new views created follow that style

]When you make the component you will need to create driving points that are not constrained and those points will be used to follow each guide curve that will be divided equally based on how many panels you need

I find using Regedit to be the fastest if your an advanced computer user.
