I can remember long time ago I tried to update SP only form the start menu, option provided by SWX but it did not work therefore I went to download full version and installed it again. I did same for this version but it did not work. Only option available here is total cleanup of SWX 2021v SP2 and r...

Maha Nadarasa

I installed SP2 in the same way therefore I do not have idea for this particular issue. Only thing I can try is uninstall whole SWX 2021v and reinstall again.

Here is the screenshot.

I want to update from SP2 to Sp3. Installation does not work. How to fox it?

@TRKemp

Thanks for the information.

@jcapriotti

Drawing is not by me. Why is the drawing having 30 degree chamfer?

Maha Nadarasa

@mattpeneguy

Thanks for clarifying the issue.

Maha Nadarasa

@mattpeneguy

What you say is to get the vertical dimension 1 mm as shown in drawing you must have a horizontal dimension 1.73 mm.

Maha Nadarasa

Okay I can understand now. Drawing is correct, it shows opposite to PM angle, where as PM shows exact angle, both of these angles are equal. I do not know how they call this equal angle in English because my mother tongue is not English.

Maha Nadarasa

@mattpeneguy

You say this is 60 degree. My understanding is 60 degree is correct.

Maha Nadarasa

@Glenn Schroeder

Diagram shows angle 30 degree measured from the flat face.

Maha Nadarasa

Is this chamfer dimension is correct? Not 30 degree it should be 60 degree for 1 mm depth. In the part file sketch shows in red color.

Maha Nadarasa

Drawing shows it is a fillet but dimension says it is a chamfer. How do you see this?

Maha Nadarasa

Here is part file (2020v). By using Multiple Trim I proceed but I want to know why extended up to surface does not work for this particular part. I tried extended up to surface separately but it worked.

Maha Nadarasa

All are surface in this video shows. I want to extend the flat surface up to the circular surface but extend up to surface does not work. How to fix it?

Maha Nadarasa

@jcapriotti

Thank you for identifying error. Not square but grid.

Maha Nadarasa

Notice this 2D sketch symbol. Symbol at the LHS is with blur grid mark in it. Symbol at the RHS is with empty space in it. Does it mean anything? Because I notice that Split Line will definitely work with 2D sketch but with 3D sketch no guarantee sometimes it will work and sometimes it will not. Wha...

Maha Nadarasa

Repaired part file.

Maha Nadarasa

After modifying the part I realized that the corner is a not a good one, so that I converted part file into dump solid file and repaired the corner.

Origin point is away from your part so that I brought origin point to a convenient location and modify the part.

Maha Nadarasa

It happens to closed edge as well.

Maha Nadarasa

Two separate flat surfaces are joint together. Joint between connections is tangent to each faces. However, according to Deviation Analysis joint at the extreme right end (green arrow shows) is 0.04 degree. What is the reason?

I assume this also should be blue arrow as well.

@mike miller

Thanks

@AlexLachance

No problem with other files therefore not sure rebooting will work. It is a very old file. I am in the process of checking it and deleting it from the system. File is attached (SWX 2020v).

Maha Nadarasa

Rebooting the computer is impossible now because many files are opened.

Maha Nadarasa

Blue rollback bar became white and cease to move. What is the reason?

Maha Nadarasa

It is safe to turn off any anti virus protection when download and install SWX because you do not know what is going behind and specially if you use SWX for your meal ticket.

Maha Nadarasa

@AlexLachance

I usually look for cheap software in market that gives Internet Protection. I have not heard about "Sophos". What is the reason for choosing "Sophos"?

Maha Nadarasa

I have used many anti virus software with SWX but no compliant at all, only thing is when downloading and installing SWX you have disable your anti virus.

Maha Nadarasa

@Roasted By John

Thanks for the information.

Maha Nadarasa

@mbiasotti

Thanks for the detail explanation.

I am not aware about Ed Eaton. I am a subscriber of SWX. It has killed all my links by disabling the old form. It is disappointing. Therefore, I am contemplating to shift to new design software. That is why I want to know about Fusion 360.

Maha Nadarasa

I have many examples. Typical example is here. How can one find out 7.5 degree angle?

Maha Nadarasa

How many of you familiar with replicating a model instead of resort to reverse engineering? I frequently do this even though modeling method is available and I find that it is impossible to replicate a model; if a model build up by adding Move/Copy Bodies command (rotate/translate option) in the pro...

Maha Nadarasa

These type of things can happen. See this

Maha Nadarasa

@ zxys001

Are you familiar with Fusion 360?

Maha Nadarasa

Some of you familiar with Fusion 360. What is the different between these two? Because Fusion 360 subscription is very cheap compared with SWX.

Maha Nadarasa

@ Assis As

If you can solve your issue it is okay.

Maha Nadarasa

File is Attached.

Maha Nadarasa

@mattpeneguy

There should be a way because it was notified as follows:

Maha Nadarasa

I wish to know whether it is possible to access the old SWX forum archives.

Maha Nadarasa

@ matt

An online tutorial for all challenging models is helpful. Because from the issues only people learn. That is why companies ask for experience when hiring. Separate tutorials for each topic is helpful for example Surfacing, Weldment, Molding and assembly few things to name.

Maha Nadarasa

@ mattpeneguy
Thanks for the complement.

Maha Nadarasa

Do not worry. I am also in the same boat. But anyone can learn when there is a need because "Necessity is the mother of invention".
