Frank,
pulling up to and limiting the pull length are two principally different things, as in an up to scenario, with the trajectory curves being longer than needed, the end face would take the shape of the face or body it is pulled against. With a…
Mirror components? Great! :O)
R6 is the next upcoming release, we have R5 right now, is that correct?
Martin
We bought five or six seats of the pricey version some time ago, as it appeared to be just what we needed and not have all the overhead we did not want. It was not overly hard to use, though also not overly easy, mimicking the likes of SW and SE in…
I started downloading it when I left home this morning. I'll try to take a look at it when I get back and my wife leaves for the girl's night out she's having tonight ... I wonder if I could run it on a Mac, as I have no PC at home.

The basic structural tools in CAElinux are quite usable!
Advanced modules (explicit and CFD solvers) on the contrary are quite difficult tu use.
The configuration is very simple (CAElinux is based on Ubuntu).
Have you ever heard about this?:

I wonder if it was usable or if one would have to struggle though a maze of modules and configurations.
Martin
Poorvesh,
like this? I also included a simple sample mechanism.
Martin
Hi Martin, the software is already available and the structural module works well. Only the integration will be completed only in 2011: it would be great to add our resources to SpaceClaim support!
Hi Matteo,
well, 2011 is a bit far for now ...
Given the usual way things go, software planned to be ready in 2011 isn't available before 2012 and not usable before 2013, so it'll have to be something else I am looking for to meet today's requireme…
Hi Martin, I'm dealing with a small software house that produces a very cheap (from 800$ to 2000$ depending on the packages) FEM code for multiphysical application (including structrual problems as well). They are working on an integration with Spac…
Hi,
I am an industrial designer, coming from product design, but have gotten pretty much on the technical track over the years. For my current projects I need to run rough structural analysis in the conceptual stages of the design process, to make…
A group for engineers and everybody interested in Analysis, Simulation, FEM/FEA software tools.
Everybody is welcome to share experiences, opinions, and impressions or to ask questions.
I can confirm the move tool observations Dan made.
Also, though space mouse navigation is far better than in the application I used before, I see difficulties navigating large objects. Maybe the pan speed needs to be somewhat adapted to the current…
Tijs,
if I had your email address, I'd send you the file ...
I have in fact done something very similar to what you did: I made a base part that hast two 'pins' that act as axis' and three bar or bone like objects with two holes each, and centered…
The error does not show any more in the recent version of SC.
When copy-pasting between designs things still get torn out of their assembly, though. So the save-as method is the way to go, select 'use internal copy' in your target design when you wa…

- Martin,
Could you upload a screen shot of the Options menu in Spaceclaim, where the mechanics option is available.

Martin
Thanks Frank, that did worked well, but don't you think that it is good to introduce fixed & floating components option.
Wim
Two things:
-- Mirror Components is in R6 already.
-- Performance of detailing for assemblies has been greatly improved in R6.

Matteo
That sounds like a good research project... but hard to find a development-worthy business model to justify. I am open to comments on that side....

Charles --
I would be surprised if Fill points were any different from Repairing Split Edges... since the underpinnings are the same.
When Fill fails it is sometimes the result of tolerant edges on imported models. Try going to the Repair tab and u…
Martin
Thanks for the additional details.
-- You can today Pull between points in the Pull tool and turn on Blend (I know this is a little bit of a stilted UI) to get 3D spline editing. Show the "Take Off Vectors" and you can make a spline, whose co…
Poorvesh
We didn't add any type of "Ground" or "Fix" function, true, but as a workaround you can align an origin in a component to the World Origin and stop the "flying away"

I just wanted attach a video to this post.
In the video, initially I have tried moving the piston in a linear motion, but the mechanism didn't worked.
Then I rocked the Link where I got satisfactory motion of the links, except that I wanted the Cyli…
Hi Frank,
I was just trying out some mechanism, but faced the same issue which was a concern for Assembly design in SpaceClaim. There is no option to define a component as a fixed (non-moving) component, so the parts in the assembly tends to fly aw…
