David Thomas Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 How can we create a assembly feature from a sweep shape ? I have had a few goes and I cannot seem to create such an entity. I have tried creating the sweep feature to drag into a new catalogue and then right click and drag out but it does not work. It has lead me on to the fact that I cannot even create a fresh hole block and drag it into the catalogue. I managed to find the "set operation" command hidden away, and set a simple block as a negative , but dragging this into the catalogue it does not behave in the same manner as a hole block, i.e. it does not subtract. Nor when I set the catalogue intellishape to "remove material" from the edit feature options it still adds a new part to the scene. I have also tried adding an assembly feature and then editing the intellshape hole block but you can't do that . So I'm stumped an ideas ? (obvious workaround is to manually apply this sweep subtraction to each part.) thanks Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Thomas Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 No, thats not quite what I'm after, the video shows you adding in another part into the assembly feature scope. Rather than use a hole block as an assembly feature removal tool I want to use a sweep shape hole tool. thanks Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
