Learn to link a text in the drawing to a measurement in the 3D model with values that show a very specific number of decimal places.
Learn some tricks to extract geometry from CGR (Catia Graphics Representation) files.
Learn how to control the video file size in CATIA V5.
Here's a popular question from CATIA users: How do I find the icon or tool I’m looking for? Without a built-in 'icon finder' here’s the process I recommend for hunting down those cannot-be-found icons
In this post we’ll look at how to create drawing views from lightweight CATIA files.
Let's look at a scenario that sometimes arises when using the “View from 3D” function in the Drafting workbench.
Measurements, by default, tend to take priority on the screen. If you create a measurement, it’ll “float” on top of any existing geometry. But if you want to turn it off, here's a quick tip to do that
Learn how with the Multi-Pad, you are able to draw all of the shapes in a single sketch and let them naturally snap to each other so it’s easier to build.
The CATIA Profile tool is a great way to draw a lot of connected lines and arcs all together. Having to pick the arcs from the Sketch Tools can get a little old.
Ever find yourself using the same command over and over and over? It’s kind of annoying to have to click the same icon so… many… times.
How to add dimensions in the Drafting workbench in CATIA
Here’s a pretty common scenario: You need to start a sketch for a part – maybe it’s a block – and to get everything nice and organized, you’ve got to center it.
Some companies are using software simulations in their PLM training for effective end-user training to help ensure that the new business processes are successfully adopted.
The Split command is an essential tool when working with surface-based models in the Generative Shape Design and Wireframe and Surface Design workbenches.
Learn options in the CATIA Split command, see what they’re for, and see why you might use them.
A shortcut implies a quicker way to achieve a goal. Many people wonder if there a faster way to learn how to use CAD software? It’s a valid question that's worth taking a closer look at.
Utilizing the four output commands within the sketcher workbench will allow sketch entities to be segmented individually, allowing for quick creation of shapes. In this video,...
