Re: Filtering Machining from Drafts

Hello

It's not the same, but You can turn machinings on/off through CAM. Also user machining is one very good option to make specific things.

Indexing

Hello

When I use automatic Indexing on dft, then identical parts will have only one index and rest of them are not indexed. Is there any option to put indexes to all parts, incl. identical parts?

Re: Best way from 3Dmax to TopSolid

There is no good way to do that. One option is to export to DWG and then import it to TS, but it will be mess due 3DS Max using meshes, but You will need solid part. You can try to search solutions how to get solid part from 3DS Max, maybe it helps. I know some guys who are doing that badass things ...

Without them You will be surprised, sadly :) Also it's good to use filters to filter out all things whic...
