  1. Basically, a simple case is you have an assembly with a part below it. The part has parameters that refer to parameters of the Assembly. If you do a Ctrl-Replace of that part with a the similar part that has the parameter names, the expression to connect to the assembly level parameter should update. Here is a video showing the capability. https://player.vimeo.com/video/928069089?h=7de2d5be97
  2. Got it. I see the issue with the perspective view and Quick views. We will send to R&D to see if we can look into this. I believe what we fixed was a view shift when switching Draft/Quick and shaded views (non-perspective).
  3. Can you send the file example to support@ironcad.com or post here? We are working on the shifting problem and we can see if this is now resolved in our upcoming release.
  4. Note: You could enable Mouse Gestures (Tools-options-interaction-mouse) and set up an action to edit the sketch. For example: Add Edit Selected Feature to the Sketch in the Customization of Mouse Gesture and have it connected to a down drag. Then you can select a sketch and drag down holding right-and-left mouse buttons. Saves you a hotkey movement

  6. We can file an ER for that. As you pointed out, if you select a sketch in the Scene Browser tree or in the scene, E will edit it. If you want to edit the sketch of a feature, Alt-E (this saves the step to find the sketch in the Scene Browser Tree).
  7. We don't save the revisions as templates. You would save it on a ICD Template itself.
  8. Hi Tom, Those are specifically for converted splines to allow positional editing (without converting to hundreds of points). These allow you to edit that converted spline where as if it was converted to points, it would be more difficult. This works on bsplines in 2D profiles (edges). Bezier curves will convert to points and these editing points (on each segment - see below).
  9. Yes that would be a good ER. However, it may sit on the sketch still as the constraint is on the sketch level.
  10. Structured parts have an implied constraint when dropping on center points, vertices, and faces. This constraint is added at the sketch level as the typical design approach with Structured is sketches. For your Intellishape, find it in the scene browser and expand the node. Right-click on the sketch below the feature and edit the position. This will show what constraint was added. Note at the bottom of the sketch position browser, there is a Fix to Reference. If you deselect that, it will disconnect that constraint to allow you to reposition it. When you drop it on a face, it will connect to the face, but you can move it anywhere on the face.
  11. Maybe it is your user access level? Try running IronCAD as Administrator (Right-click on the icon and select run as administrator). Change the properties and restart to see if they are now saved. If they are saved, then it may be a user access level permission that you may need to change on your system.
  12. Create the configuration first with the storing position information set: While that configuration is active, start mechanism mode. Move the model to the desired location. Hit the Green Button to accept the position. This will store the part information in that configuration. When you switch back to Default, it will return to the other position (as the Default stores positions). Hope that helps.
  13. In the Shrinkwrap command. change the selection filter (at the bottom right of the screen to Assembly/Part. Select on the desired assembly and a Dialog will pop-up to allow you to select the assembly or sub assemblies. Pick the assembly and select add and it will add it to the Select Parts to Keep dialog.
