I have a problem fo cycling dependency when I try to do a notch in a particular case.
I have this frame sample. I need to notch each frame parts. I realize 3 notchs, first one between 1 and 2, second one between 3 and 4. This two notch are realized without any problem.
When I try to do the last notch between 5 and 6 I have a cycling dependency error message. I don't understand why and how to solve the problem.
I have been getting this error message alot with 2013. I never got this before with previous versions. I do alot of assemblies that are made of parts that are derived from a main sketch part. The only way to remove the error is by deleting the right part out of the assembly and I can procede. I have read that it has something to do with renaming parts, but I still dont completely understand how I am getting this error. My work flow is the same.

Just upgraded to 2013 about a week ago. Random part files seem to be giving me the same error message "A cyclical constraint dependency has been detected." Some of these parts are ones that worked fine in 2012 and some are ones that I created in 2013 and worked fine for a while, but then started giving me the error later on.

I tried to notch the W14x30 by ending it at the flange edge of the W14x61. I also tried to notch by ending the W14x30 on the other side of the W14x61, both attempts yielding no results.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAs i discovered, frame generator is a very handy tool to make a frame, and to connect beams to each other.
For a customer we need to build a large frame, The outer beams are connected directly to each other. The beams inside the outer frame need to have a gap because of mounting and welding.
What i am looking for is a kind of tool, where i can add a notch, and after the notch, shorten the beam with 1 mm at each side to make a gap, which is needed for welding.
Inventor gives an error if i add first a notch followed by a Lengthen/Shorten command. How to add a notch and a gap of 1 mm to a connecting beam?
Using IV 2013 and Frames.
When i get some frames and need to use the feature NOTCH, is there a way to put one offset on it ? like we can do using MITER ?
The solution we've found here is in every member that we use NOTCH, we enter in the frame part and then use the feature THICKEN/OFFSET, this wey i can get the standard offset of 3mm that we use here for welding.
Or, if there is other easy way instead of NOTCH, to make one frame get to other with offset.
The image below shows what i mean, i need to get this off set in the frames on Z AXIS.

I would like to know how to notch (or similar) a frame made in Frame Generator to a solid part?
I have that problem when I'll connect a truss frame to a specific part.
I created a custom profile, IS34, and published it successfully as a structural shape for the frame gererator. My problem is I get an error when I try to use the notch command in frame generator between two of these frame members. I have tried creating a custom notch in the profile definition, but this did not work either. I expected one profile to counter-profile the other.

tried to author notch profiles in the structural members for 2011?
The what's new states:
>Publish Notch Profiles
>The Notch command is enhanced so that you can define and reuse frame cross-sections. This is particularly >useful when you need a minimal gap between two connected frames.
>You can sketch a notch profile, extrude it, convert it to an iPart, and author and publish the iPart to Content >Center. Then you can apply the notch to cut another frame during the Notch process.
Is there a way to create an insert notch in a sheet metal part?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am setting up a family of parts that consist of a round disc with a fixed OD and a circular pattern of notches cut into the OD. The notches must go to a certain depth from the center, so those parameters are set. My problem is that I need to control the amount of material left between the notches, along the OD, after the pattern is done. Given the fixed parameters of the major OD, minor OD (3.5" in this case) and number of notches, the only way to control the amount of material between notches is to change the angle. When I set up the sketch to do the notches, I can only get a fully constrained sketch if I assign a specific angle to the notch. I need to be able to set it up so that the angle of the notch varies so the end result is a specifc amount of material left after the circular patter is completed.
In the attached PDF, I show what I have done so far. In this case the OD of the part is 4" and the diameter of the notch at it's closest to the center is 3.5". So basically, I end up with a driven parameter of 0.443. If I assign this value the parameter of d14, I need to make it equal to a ratio of another parameter (let's call it d15) so that d14 = d15*2.. This can only be accomplished by changing the angle.
In my family, the major OD and minor OD remain the same, but the angle must change to retain a specific amount of material between the notches when the number of notches is increased or decreased.
Is there an iLogic rule I can write to control this?
There should be a way to Notch a straight frame to a curved frame! I want to laser cut the tube, so I really need to trim one tube to a curve tube.
View 8 Replies View RelatedWe have recently made the switch to Civil 3D for our firm and are running into some issues with intersections. I am getting an error stating that "The primary road for this T-junction will result in a circular dependency with the existing intersections." When trying to make an intersection at the middle intersecting road of the northern road going across the top of the screen in the attached image. The norhtern road is defined as secondary at both endpoints and the intersecting road is defined as primary at the previous intersection. At this intersection the northern road will need to be primary and the intersecting road secondary. I would prefer not to break up my alignments as you lose some of the dynamic nature by doing that and vertical curves can become an issue.

I've noticed that with selection cycling, while it's handy to select multiple overlapping objects, you'd better be sure about what you're selecting first because there's no way to unselect (using selection cycling).
View 4 Replies View RelatedHaving problem with object selection when covered by other objects ie lines,arcs etc on a solid model---autocad 2011---did not seem to be a problem in 2006 version,but wondering if switching layers on and off is the only way?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI often have lines drawn on top of other lines and need to cycle thru them to select the correct one. I always did this before upgrading to 2013 by holding the CTRL key and clicking on the lines. That doesn't seem to work on this version. I saw some recomenedations to hold the CTRL key and space bar at the same time but that still doesn't seem to work.It would be a huge time waste if I have to turn off layers everytime to just get to 1 line that I need to offset.

I keep turning it off, and after a while, in the middle of a command, it turns it self on.
Is it a bug in the 2011 version?
How to turn it off for good?
When using selection cycling (which I think is brilliant, shame we didn't have it 15 years ago) with an xref attached the application slows right down to the point where moving the mouse results in the cross hairs jumping around and making using anything almost impossible. Turning the xref off or turning selection cycling off restores performance to how it should be. If both are on I just cannot use the program at all, shame really as this new feature is neat. I use x'refs extensively so this fault restricts use of the new feature.

I just upgraded to Autocad 2014.
With regards to selection cycling, when it's turned on, the dialog box pops up in the middle of my screen which is exactly where I DON'T want it as that's usually where I'm working and it causes all kinds of selection issues. Regardless of the settings I choose in the options, it comes up in the middle of my screen.
I've tried setting the position to static and then dragging the box to the side but on the next click, it pops up in the original centered location. I've also tried every possible configuration in the options box to stop this behavior.
I know in Photoshop you are able to cycle through hidden tools not visible in toolbar by pressing SHIFT together with the keyboard shortcut repeatedly. I don't see this behaviour in Illustrator - is this correct? Is there any way to replicate this behaviour without allocating a different shortcut for every tool in the toolbox?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just bought the Intuos5 tablet and am now setting it up to work properly. It apparently has some issues with non-US keyboards and requires some shortcut remapping. Which wouldn't be a problem (I got brush size working), if only I could find the place where the layer cycling shortcuts are hidden.
I see this might be a rather dumb question, but I went through the Edit->Keyboard Shortcut menus multiple times and just couldn't find what I was looking for. is it possible to make Canvas Rotation seamless and not only by 90 degrees in CS2?
I understand that shift++ (holding down the shift key and typing plus key) is supposed to cycle between blending modes. Nothing happens when I do that though. I have the top layer selected and the blending mode stays the same. Using PS CS6.

I'm trying to use iLogic Design Copy to copy an assembly and all its associated parts to another directory. The assembly contains content center parts. Inventor warns me that the destination file of one of the CC parts (and 18 others) will be overwritten. When I go ahead and copy anyway, the copying process stops at that specific CC part. The Design Copy Progress dialog box states there is an error copying that CC part. When I close the Design Copy Progress dialog box, Inventor crashes.
The error copying the CC part: I'm allowed to use content center parts in iLogic Design Copied stuff, right? I searched some related topics and I'm under the impression that Inventor keeps the CC parts in its own directory and shouldn't be trying to overwrite them.
