  • In this Onshape quick tip, ‪@TooTallToby‬ shows us how we can quickly create fully defined sketches in Onshape by using the built in automatic #dimension functionality.

    Everything about this program is "Jesus - it was that easy all along!" Its brilliant. I feel stupid for persisting so long with illustrator.

      lol - awesome!

    Yes, it's a big time saver!
    I often use a construction rectangle to locate a point in x and y (instead of adding two dimensions), similar to what you showed for the circle.
    Also having the box active after clicking (as opposed to the SW way where it's only active before you place the end point), means that you can pick up a relation first and then set the dimension. In your first sketch example you could have left out the "87-55" and just added the 87 on you last vertical line instead (would also be clearer if the 87 max height is your design intent!).

      Ohhh thats pretty cool! I'm gonna start trying that! Thanks Airwick!

    For the last part if you want to find the center for your circle. You can also hover over the midpoint of one side and then also the midpoint of the other side. It will then remember both and automatically show lines and give you the center.

      Ohhhh!!! thats a MEGA PRO TIP!! thanks Kadettv8!!

    As a new CAD user, I've gone through some of Toby's youtube videos and tried to do some of the design challenges he presents.
    The thing that slows me down the most is being able to position plains at the point where I need them. This is especially true for plains that are awkwardly placed and not on an existing face. I'd love to see a video on efficiently placing plains. Thanks!

    I had no idea this existed! That’s much less tedious than switching between sketch geometry and dimensioning.
    I’m glad I’m already onboard with prioritizing construction geometry to avoid dimension calcs in dependencies.

    • @TooTallToby

      I agree this is a super efficient workflow!

    I've watched 4 short videos and learned more in that time than anything else. I have to reproduce the rear cover of my 20 year old bike GPS! Still going strong apart from the backplate which is broken. I had the option of a new buy GPS (£600+) or a 3D printer and a GPS at the end of it if I could print the back plate! It's a pretty weird shape but with these ace videos I can likely get it done much faster than messing around in plasticity. Kudos Sir!

      Awesome!! So glad these are helpful! Thanks so much for the wonderful story!

    I was familiar with circles and rectangles, but I didn't know that I could set dimensions on lines while drawing. Great tip, thanks ;)

    As a current Solidworks user, I missed this functionality during my use of Autodesk Inventor! It just works so well and it's definitely a timesaver.

    • @TooTallToby
      @TooTallToby 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yeah agree! I was so excited to see that this was built into Onshape!

    Yes, I have discovered and used this auto dimensioning. But your video is an excellent description of this really good feature.

    • @TooTallToby
      @TooTallToby 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      awww yeah! Thanks for the kind words!

    Keep ‘‘em coming! Every time you give these shorts I try to incorporate them into the next drawing iteration. Thanks !

    Did I already know about this? Yes.
    Did I learn something? Also yes.

    Woah! I’m an Onshape noob but I happened to figure this out while doing some modeling. You guys have great UI/UX for me to naturally figure that out just by using the software. Didn’t know about the math bit though!

    • @TooTallToby
      @TooTallToby 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Awesome! Yeah I've self discovered quite a bit of cool functionality, and I agree this is testament to a wonderful UI/UX design!

    • @BrianTRice77
      @BrianTRice77 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The math bit usually comes up when trying to use the Variable feature!

    Nice vid as always Toby! speaking of saving some time, maybe you can look into using a keystroke visualizer application so that you dont have to manually edit in what keys you press? one example is Keyviz witch is open source, but i'm sure there are others as well. thanks again!

    • @TooTallToby
      @TooTallToby 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great tip! Thanks I'll look into it!

    • @airwick5083
      @airwick5083 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I haven't tried "keyviz" but I have been using "key'n'Strokes" and I find it helps to see what is going on (especially the mouse icon showing the button presses, as an alternate to the "mouse cam")
