When working with outside suppliers who only use a 2D drafting tool; you may want to incorporate their designs into your 3D design. This video shows you how to load a DXF drawing into Annotation and use the 2D geometry to create a 3D model.... (Show more)(Show less)
Screw Connections loads a combination of screws, washers and nuts into a design. This video demonstrates inserting a screw connection while drilling the required holes into the mating parts.
In this short video, you will learn how to preselect a part, position a part with 3D Copilot Snapping, copy a part and position with snapping, then move a face and snap the location of that face to the same position as another part.

The Loft command can be used to add or remove material from a part. This video demonstrates creating a 3D part using the Loft command from two 2D workplanes match-lined.
Process starts with hole pattern that needs to be modified. This video demonstrates how to exclude parts of the pattern and add additional features using the Punch command.
Blend and Chamfer creation and modification are even more intuitive and predictable thanks to interactive results calculation with realistic feedback like in the Push/Pull command. The Option Mini Toolbar has been extended to include more behavior controls for fast and convenient access. In addition, the intra-command interaction has been revised to not only collect parameters for and preview the final blend/chamfer creation or modification at the final OK click. Instead, it auto-completes each incremental operation step when the next edge or chain of edges is selected... (Show more)(Show less)
This demo shows how to move a part on/near another part in the assembly. The first method shows positioning by two points: one point on the part to be moved; second point on the other part. The second method demonstrates moving a part by direction length relative to another part in the assembly.... (Show more)(Show less)
This demo shows how to add to a current sheet metal part using a polyline. The polyline has already been drawn as a 2D object on a work plane when this demonstration is opened. The Add by polyline command considers bend and bend relief types when performed.... (Show more)(Show less)
Cylindrical sheet metal parts with bend angle between 180° and 360° can be folded and unfolded by the Roll Bending process capability. Shop data (Sheet Metal product, only) include K-factor information. Unfold Parts and Refold Parts are extended to support multiple part modifications in one step.... (Show more)(Show less)
