Re: profile along a spline

There is no built-in function to do that automatically; it would have to be done manually (rotate and translate).

Re: Activating Mouse Wheel

I've heard of people having trouble with using the scroll to zoom on a Microsoft wireless mouse. They tried several things and ended up fixing it by changing to a different (Logitech) mouse.

Re: elan:

I'm not a LISP expert, but my understanding is that "elan:" can be used in front of some commands to specify which package the command comes from.

Project Point onto Face

I am trying to write a LISP routine where I need to project a point onto a face and return the point on the face. So far, I am not having any luck; so I'm hoping someone here can help.

Re: Serial Dongle connected to a USB Port

Version 14 is very old. It's not surprising that you haven't got good support from PTC on that version-I doubt that it is still officially supported. We've upgraded to 15.5 and then 17; and now we...

Re: I've been asked to create a somewhat complex drawing, not quite sure where to sta

I don't know if this would work in your situation, but this is something to consider.

Re: Add pictures to 3D assemblies

I assume that by adding a picture to a .pkg file you mean that you want to specify the icon used for that file so you can tell what is in the file by looking at the icon in the file browser. If...

Improve ability to show/hide 3D annotation

I like using 3D dimensions to drive model changes. But the viewport gets cluttered when I have even a few 3D dimensions on parts in a small assembly-it is unusable with large assemblies. Currently it...

Inquire VP direction

Re: automatic update the date

Text References can do that. If you are using ModelManager, you can update based on any of the document or Masterdata dates. If not, or if you don't want those dates, you may have to write your own...

Re: Reattaching Centerlines
