Tijs Driessen replied to Dennis Nelson's discussion 'My Drafting Wishlist for Spaceclaim'

"Hi Guys, I agree on most of your comments. I don't have time right now to elaborate on it, but now at least the SpaceClaim engineers know that there are more people with the same wishes. Regards, Tijs"

Tijs Driessen replied to Willem Wagelaar's discussion 'File structure in SpaceClaim failes'

"Hi Willem, I've made our own drawing formats a few years ago. If I remember correctly, you can open a new file, make no model, but make a drawing sheet. Then just draw lines wherever you want, insert text boxes, that grab information…"

"Hi Willem, Gabhan, Martin and Dennis, I fully agree on the lack of functionality on the 2D drawings in SpaceClaim. Would it be a nice option if you could make drawings external, like you can with components? I like the fact that everything…"

"Hi Martin, I've installed SP 1 of SC engineer now, and I tried to make my 4 joint mechanism move, but so far I haven't been able to do so. I made 4 simple bars with two holes in each bar. Then I mated the holes with the center tool in the…"

martin kopplow replied to Tijs Driessen's discussion 'Simulation of motion'

"It seems the functionality discussed in this thread is there now. At least I could just build and move a 4-joint construction. If we could only upload files here, I'd show you a sample ... There appear to be certain limitations, though. I…"

christopher bartlett replied to Tijs Driessen's discussion 'Simulation of motion'

Willem Wagelaar replied to Tijs Driessen's discussion 'Simulation of motion'

Simulation of motion

I want to optimise the geometry of a foldable construction. Therefore I built the structure in Spaceclaim, with simple beams. I´ve mated the holes in my construction members with the center tool. So these mates would work as hinges. Now if I rotate one of the beams, I expect my construction to keep intact (that is, stay attached at the mate hinge points) and move along with the rotated beam. But apparently Spaceclaim doesn't seem to understand how to do that.It really surprises me, because if I…See More

Absolutely! Actually, the best thing to do is to send it to support [at] spaceclaim [dot] com. They will log cases against your requests and let R&D know what the most common requests are. We'd love to know what you're looking for.

What are you doing with SpaceClaim?

Best,
-Blake

You should share your document with Blake Courter, one of the founder of SpaceClaim. I'm sure he will be very thankful. I'm not a SpaceClaim developer, I'm working with Novedge and we are the major sponsor of this community.

Personally I would like also to have your document posted (copy & paste) here for everybody to discuss it.
