Re: Draft Workbench Select Plane Issue

I think Yes. In other word, first view is an isometric or perspective view (I am not familiar with axiometric concept) and after go to the specific plane for do a 2d drawing, then go to the isometric or perspective view again to see the general drawing progress and so on with simple icon commands l...

Re: Aligning sketch between edges of a padded part

If that's the use case it is far easier if you attach the sketch to one of the faces at the side and pocket through all. If you need the arbitrary solution and cannot reposition the object as sheinz showed you can use expressions to position the sketch. Watchout: you can use expressions for the pla...

Re: Draft Workbench Select Plane Issue

Do you mean you want a dedicated button to select each drawing plane, and at the same time snap the view to axonometric? You can create macros for that.

Re: Arch CutPlane - Error: tuple index out of range

Re: Issue encountered with draft projection in Techdraw

Please see attached the file.

I've made a compound and simple compound, and they seem to show up fine in the drawing. By selecting them and using New View.

Windows 10 recently introduces a beta feature that is Windows S...
