How to create an advanced 3D curve?
How to create an advanced 3D curve? A 3D curve can be created in space or lie on a geometrical element, or both. When the curve lies on a geometrical element, associativity can be kept. It is also possible to edit, delete or add points when creating the curve, or after. A 3D curve is

How to open a 3D from the corresponding 2D in CATIA?
How to open a 3D from the corresponding 2D in CATIA? Often enough, there is a need to switch between a 2D opened in CATIA to its corresponding 3D. In order to facilitate and quicken this task, it is possible to open the 3D directly from the 2D. To know more about this procedure, please

How to create multiple orthogonal leaders in a CATIA drawing?
How to create multiple orthogonal leaders in a CATIA drawing? Due to a limitation in CATIA V5 it is impossible for users to place multiple orthogonal leaders for geometrical tolerances. The workaround consists in: Each time you want to adjust the perpendicularity of the leader created via the breakpoint, move it with pressed down Shift

How to manage drawings with several sheets in PLM?
How to manage drawings with several sheets in PLM? Whilst the PLM is not able to support the multi-sheet drawings, here is the procedure to follow if you have a design that doesn’t fit only in one sheet of the drawing: Note: the procedure refers to CATIA, but it can be applied for other CAD

What is the solutions to the problems with large file size drawing?
What is the solutions to the problems with large file size drawing? A drawing can be called “too large” when the native file size is a number with more than 6 digits. Unfortunately, there is not a perfect solution but in the document below there are different methods and options that depending on each case
