SpaceClaim Direct Modeling Challenge - Bring it on!
You may be the lucky winner - $250 Amazon.com gift certificate
Submission Deadline - July 15, 2009
Got a modeling problem that's driving you crazy?
Want to know how direct modeling can solve it?
Every day, engineers send their design problems to Spaceclaim to see how we can solve them in SpaceClaim. Now, we're bringing the challenge and the solution to you.
Challenge us!
If you have a modeling challenge, we want you to bring it on - to us! Whether your challenge is focused on conceptual engineering, CAE/model preparation, industrial design, or manufacturing engineering, we want you to send it to us. Through a live webinar on July 29th, we'll demonstrate how SpaceClaim 3D Direct Modeling will solve the most compelling design problem we receive. We'll show you how to face your challenge head-on, in a way you've never imagined - easily, freely, and without frustration!
Submit your files.* It's easy!
By Wednesday, July 15th, submit the files* related to your modeling challenge to SpaceClaim:
* By submitting your model for this challenge, you are giving SpaceClaim Corporation the right to use it any way in which we desire. We will not disclose to anyone outside of SpaceClaim the actual 3D data, but we do reserve the right to use this model and any associated imagery in various marketing programs, on our website, and as an example of the kinds of models SpaceClaim is able to create and modify.
Win a $250 Amazon.com gift certificate!
After July 15th, the individual who provides the most challenging and intriguing model will be notified and awarded a $250 Amazon.com gift certificate. The winning challenge will be announced at the start of the webinar.

That has caused some irritations here, too. Undo even seems to undo changing between models, then goes on changing the other model back to previous states.
It would in fact be desireable that undo exists for each model independently. I can imagine that this might cause trouble when models are linked in an assembly, though. For independent models, it should still be feasible.
Maybe there should be some more thought put into the UI where tabs are used to navigate models: They should probably make a difference between models of the same assembly and independent models. Maybe tabs should be organized in multiple rows instead on one: independent models get a new row, models associated to an assembly go into the row of their assembly. Then, undo could act on the current row only.

Comment by Poorvesh Mistry on June 24, 2009 at 10:21pm - I don't know whether others are facing the same problem, but when I am working on two files at the same time in SpaceClaim, if I modify File 1 then move to File 2 (both open in same SpaceClaim UI), then work on file 2, when I come back to File 1 and feel like Undoing the last steps of file 1 (Ctrl + Z), it effects only the command which was working on previously, that means rather than effecting the current file 1, it effects previous file 2.

Hi Matteo,
I sure have some challenges that would drive you nuts, unfortunately these are 'live' files I cannot give away because of an active NDA. I'll try to recreate a sample file that has the challenge, but not the original geometry.

Thanks for the reply.
1. I have played around a little bit with it. It's a very powerful tool for selecting elements with in solids, but doesn't work at all with components. It would be nice if that selection tool would find attributes of a compone…
Hi Dennis,
1. Did you notice the selection tab under the component tree? You might want to play around with that one and see what it can do for you.
4. You can move any direction you like, but you need to use the move tool. I know Cinema4D as quit…
As a drawing is always referring to a certain component, it will by default include everything within the component. It would be possible, though, to create one more drawing and hide those elements not needed for the purpose. If you go on with your…
Thanks for the reply.
1. This worked. Although I would like to see something similar to Rhino's selection filter. Where you can filter out certain elements before you draw a selection box. For instance if I wanted to just select components it would…
I was thinking of something similar to Microstation's clip volume. Although maybe I am thinking about wrong. If you have a large complex assembly and want to show a detail of how 2 parts fit together without showing all the other parts around it. Ho…
Hmmm... I could not find any anomalities in SC 2010 so far. I think the hierarchy driven alignment preferences have always been ab bit ugly. I'd prefer if the alignment direction would be defined by the sequence of selection. The object selected fir…
In former versions I did not have any problems with it. But with V.2010 it is unpredictable. I agree with you Martin that the anchor constraint wil work but it is extra mouseclicks and I do not believe this is the way it is supposed to be.
These are the choices you have, no depth. Never heard of that one, though.

1. right click on model -> select -> component/body/face
2. no, except they are all inside one big component.
3. No, unfortunately, except for mirrored ones, as the mirror plane will appear as you select them.
4. by adjusting the move handle so as t…
I don't think there is a setting. You can use the anchor constraint to prevent one component from moving, though. I f you don't specify anything, the lower in hierarchy component will always move towards the higher (=closer to root) component. So, b…
