Nice content. I have some comments: 1 - Relations are either "Found" or "Persistent". You referred to them as "Inferred", but the correct term is "Found". 2 - I find it very helpful to add the "Display Persistent Relations" button/toggle to the sketch ribbon. It is currently under the "Options" menu, but I prefer to move it to the ribbon so I can easily see it. 3 - Siemens did a great job of adding some very helpful "getting started" videos for the new sketcher. If someone is struggling with the new sketcher it might be helpful to review those videos again. If you hit "F1" for help in the new sketcher you can click on "New to Sketch" and "Legacy users" to see videos on how to work with the new sketcher.
If a curve of circle connected to the zero point and the center connected with an axis i can't delete circle relations with the point. Only shaking can help to delete but all of them. But how to delete only one point connection without shaking?
Awesome video! Can you also do one on relax dimensions / constraints. Ever since the new sketcher has been implemented I’ve been avoiding working with sketches because it was quite frustrating not understanding the new logic and I haven’t really gotten time to get a training on it. Your video is very helpful.
Hi, after teaching myself NX after finishing uni where I used Catia I've found myself watching more and more of your videos and being more conscious about curve/surface quality and using relevant anaylsis tools. My question is mainly about motorsport and aero/surface design in the field of F1 or WEC. How important is maintaining g2 continuity or surface quality/complexity if we are no longer worried about reflection quality etc? For example, a spoon-shape rear wing, where the aerofoil profile changes shape along its span, if I have one aerofoil profile along the centre line, and then the outer span profiles have lower angles of attack and offset 50mm higher, i then join the leading and trailing edges of these two profiles with splines tangent along the y-axis as cross curves, and then use a through curve mesh for the surface, is using the extruded profiles as tangent conditions for the primary curves more than enough for creating an acceptable surface for the sake of manufacturing feasability (creating moulds for carbon fibre etc), even if the reflection analysis shows the transition between the extrudes and through curves mesh isn't completely smooth? Sorry for the rambling question/comment, might be easier to send you the part file and question via email. Would like to get thoughts from someone with industry experience.
Hey Shaun, I will say this: the old Space Shuttle was built using all conics in all directions. Mathematically it is impossible to make conics G2 or greater but that bird flew... The reason is simple, you can get really good smoothness using G1 transitions with the correct amount of lead in. This can mimic perfect smoothness.
