Hello

 

I open this service to report anomalies that many customers have complained about, I ask if there is a way to solve it.

 

By exporting the files to dwg the annotation and solids thicknesses are not maintained , Spaceclaim exports the file with the same thickness as all lines.
In this way the exported design is hard to read.

For example, this is not the case if you export in PDF format where the thickness of the different lines is maintained ( as in the attached photo) and the design is well understood.

The other problem that occurs during the export both in PDF and in dwg and that if you switch off the tangent lines Spaceclaim exports them anyway ( as in the attached video)

Best Regards

Hello Robert ,

I am looking into it and will get back to you with my findings as soon as possible.

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

 

There is a bug in the creation of mechanical drawing boards.

When you go to save a file in dwg and there are only views with the same scale as the sheet , the (hidden) dotted lines export them correctly as in picture 1.

While when you go to save a file in dwg and there are views with different scale , the (hidden) dotted lines incorrectly export them in an incomprehensible way , are very long lines (Photo 2)
I can send myself two examples of dwg files in private

The last thing is that when I go to change the color of the views to white I do not export them with the chosen color , while with all the other colors it works. (I attach video)

Export it in black or dark grey

 

If you need more descriptions to understand the problem and then can correct it I’m at your disposal

I look forward to your information

 

Best Regards

Hello Robert ,

For your third query,

the (hidden) dotted lines incorrectly export them in an incomprehensible way

 I was not able to replicate the issue. I have sent you a secure transfer link, can you send your .dwg files there?

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Yes, I can send the files in dwg, the secure transfer link has not arrived

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

Can you please login to ANSYS's secure transfer portal and check the inbox?

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

Now I reset the password to log in and later I enter and send you the file

 

Best Regards

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello, I can't reset my password so I can't send you the files.
Can you reset my password or send me an email?

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert,

For your first two queries, I tried replicating the issue, and they do seem to a bug. I have filed the bug report on our portal, so that the developers can look into it. For your reference the bug IDs are 298619 (tangent line bug) and 298628 (Edge thickness bug) respectively.

For your third query, I will need to investigate it further. I will get back to you with my findings, as soon as possible.

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Thank you very much, there are a very important bug to fix

Best Regards

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

Thanks for bringing them to our notice.

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

While for this mistake can you tell me something?

The last thing is that when I go to change the color of the views to white I do not export them with the chosen color , while with all the other colors it works. (I attach video)

Export it in black or dark grey

Hello Robert ,

I am looking into it now. I will get back to you as soon as possible.

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

For your third query, 

the (hidden) dotted lines incorrectly export them in an incomprehensible way , are very long lines

 this actually is a bug, thanks for bringing that to our notice.

Although I checked it with 2020 R2, the next unreleased version of Spaceclaim, with SpaceClaim export setting changed to from Tiegha to RealDWG, if the AutoCAD file is exported, this issue will not be observed. The hidden (dotted) line will not be changed regardless of having differently scaled views on the sheet, and the bug will be resolved.

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

well that in the next version will be correct

Best Regards

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

Hidden lines will be consistent with scaling in the next version.

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

I tried recreating the fourth query,

change the color of the views to white I do not export them with the chosen color , while with all the other colors it works

It also seems like either a bug or a limitation, for which I will need to further discuss it with the developers. For now, I have filed a bug report for the same, with Bug report ID 299951. Once again, thanks a lot for bringing these to our notice. 

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

If I find others I will let you know, these I think is important BUG to correct because the export in dwg / dxf is very used

Best Regards

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

Yes, thanks a lot.

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

It would also be very nice if you could make this improvement very useful, because how it works now and almost unusable for saving dxf and printing

IMPROVEMENTS/ Idea for devlopment = traceline

 

Best Regards

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

You managed to see that the dotted lines in the exploded configuration are too thin and work and can only be viewed on video 

Thanks for sharing your Idea. I will share your idea/input with the product development team about the trace line.  

Regards

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

I will look into it if there is a bug report filed, or if there any update on the same. I will get back to you regarding this. 

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Thank you very much, I hope some changes have been made since I had reported it some time ago

 

Best Regards

[Charudatta Bandgar]

Hello Robert ,

I was not able to find an enhancement request filed. A new enhancement request has been filed. Enhancement request ID: 7ERAFE06292020.

 

Regards.

[rg]

Charudatta Bandgar Hello

 

It would be very nice if as an improvement in the next versions the color of a mechanical drawing table view is not connected to the others in such a way as to be able to assign different colors.
Now it is not possible to change color only in the isometric view or in a single view

 

Bset Regards
