Dealing with ‘Not to Scale’ error while applying dimensions in Solid Edge

Some times while creating sketches in Solid Edge we face a strange problem. We are unable to modify the dimensions applied over the sketches. When we try to modify the software indicates that it is a Not to scale dimension and unchecking this option will return the dimension to its normal actual value. But unchecking that option also not solve the problem. At this point if we check the automatically defined constraints which are applied while creating sketch also do not exist.

This problem arises when we by mistake turn of Maintain Relationships command. This Command is available on Sketching tab →Relate group →Maintain Relationships.

Applying Parallel or Perpendicular Dimension in Solid Edge

This tutorial shows the way to set dimension orientation, parallel or perpendicular to the selected element, in Solid Edge. To do so first define Dimension axis using the Dimension Axis option on the command bar of Smart Dimension tool. Then apply dimension. Watch the video to understand.

Creating a Tangent Plane in Creo Parametric

In this video we will see how to create a tangent plane over a cylindrical surface in creo parametric. To do so the cylindrical surface and a plane should be selected using the Ctrl key. Then specify that the newly created plane should be tangent to cylindrical surface and parallel to the selected plane. Clicking at a right spot will determine the side of plane creation.

Revolving from a start point to an end point--Solid Edge

If we check out the revolve tool there is no direct option available to create a feature from a start point to an end point. To do such operation the key points snap and revolve to symmetric and non-symmetric extents option should be used. I found this way while working on a previous tutorial named Sliding Latch of Door (Solid Edge Tutorial). Check out the video to understand everything in detail.

Creating Angled Plane in Solid Edge

In this video I will demonstrate the way to create Angled Plane in Solid Edge. This example will demonstrate a bit tricky method. This method was adapted because you can not create user defined Axis in this software. Sometimes key points snaps is very useful while using the software watch the video to understand.
