Did you see the new structure part example tutorials on IronCAD.Academy? These videos are a great tutorial to learn about IronCAD’s different design capabilities. For users that are familiar traditional CAD systems, structured part mode can offer a familiar user experience, with the benefit of having IronCAD’s other industry leading features. On top of this flexibility, IronCAD can cover those cases where you may want to use multiple bodies and more of a rigid approach to your part design. This is just another way IronCAD offers users the choice how to design each part based on your design needs (and not forced one way or another). Check out the tutorial for an example. Note: In order to work in structured part mode, you will have to add the structured part tool bar to your ribbon bar by right clicking an empty space in your ribbon bar and selecting the option to Customize Ribbon bar and add the structured parts toolbar to the ribbon. https://ironcad.academy/tutorial/structured-part-example-1-single-wall-tray-with-a-flat-top-and-a-recessed-top

IronCAD has a structured BOM mode that allows users to collapse or show specific portions of their scene tree on command. When creating a BOM in ICD, ensure that you select the structured mode in the bill of Materials Style: When editing the BOM, you will now see an additional column present on the left side that contains + and – that will expand or collapse your BOM. When you press apply, the BOM will apply your changes and display the BOM as shown in the Edit menu without the +/- column. Note that Item Bubbles will follow the structured bom item numbers. Additionally, there is an option to expand the Structured BOM at creation by going to the BOM Style options and ensure that the “Expand Structured Bom at creation” is on. structuredbom.mp4

Did you know that IronCAD Bulk View creation tool can automatically add dimensions to your views when they are generated? These dimensions can automatically be created by the IronCAD application with a template that defines which views will have dimensions as well as the properties of the dimensions themselves. To get started, you can create a simple part and then save it to a location on your PC. A simple block is enough to work. Then create a drawing based on that block and add the views you would like to see when you make the document a template. Once your views are all set, right click the view, and go to view properties. In the Dimensions tab, check the box that says: “Auto Dimension view when used in Bulk Drawing creation” You will need to go to the Auto Dimension settings afterwards and define the dimension Type, placement settings and Origin Location. Save the template file to one of your Bulk Drawing template folders and then you are all set. When you select that template inside the BVC tool, IronCAD will automatically generate dimensions based on the template layout. 2022-01-28 14-30-52.mp4 2022-03-04 13-37-48.mp4

Hi, We are currently investigating this issue. This has been filed under Support incident #115045

Inside an IronCAD sketch you may notice that that there are blue dots whenever you select on a line segment. These blue dots allow you to modify the geometry while maintaining certain relationships with connecting geometry. On line segments, there is a Blue dot that is offset from the center of the middle of the line, touching the angle dimension. This dot switches sides whenever you select a different side of the line segment. By selecting this and moving your mouse, you will edit the angle of the line segment. This interaction will maintain the connected geometries angles so the line segment will change in size. Holding shift before moving the line segment will lock the lines total length and will break the connecting lines angle. The Blue dot that is connected to the length dimension will control the length of the line segment without changing the angles of any connecting geometry. That means that connecting shapes will also change size depending on the geometry. Holding shift and moving that dot will change the lines length, but allow connecting geometry to change angle as well. These blue dots will also appear on arc geometry as well, so you can easily extend existing arcs as well. If you are looking to easily add constraints to a selected segment, you can select the line and use the property browser to quickly add context bases constraints for your parts. 2021-10-15 16-06-19.mp4

Here are some quick tips for creating drawing files quickly from your large assembly files: IronCAD can create drawings that exclude hidden objects from the creation process. Simply hide the parts you don't want to show in a drawing and select the create drawing button. The following Prompt will appear: This tool is asking if you want to show the parts that you have hidden in your drawing file, selecting Yes will show the hidden parts in the drawing, and selecting no will leave them hidden, and unselected in the views. Once in the view creation tool, you can see on the left side with the Select Part/assembly button, that the hidden part is not selected in the tree structure. IronCAD will remember your selection for the future, so updates to this drawing will not include the hidden part when you update the view. hiddenpartscreationdrawing.mp4 IronCAD also has the ability to create drawings with views to only show selected parts during creation. This process can be done by selecting all the parts you want to show in a drawing, then right click a part, and select Create Drawing from Selection. This process is similar to the hidden parts creation tool, as any updates to the part will not add parts to the view that were not initially selected in the creation process, unless you were to use the Select part/assembly function. selectedpartsdrawing.mp4
