The assembly modelling tools are growing at a similar clip, being fleshed out quickly and pretty consistently. With every update cycle (a cycle typically runs for three weeks), users are finding that most operations have grown in their capability. In the last few releases, this core set of tools has been enhanced to include, for example, more powerful termination results in an extrude and greater control over how lofts are constructed. Not many systems can boast entirely unlimited undo/redo like this. Onshape uses a history list to track your feature-creation and editing operations and, due to its cloud-based nature, keeps a complete list of all changes. If you’ve been tracking its development, you’ll be aware that Onshape is centred on a set of tools that allows you to create geometry using a familiar palette of both solid and surface modelling tools.īy that, I mean that the tools are pretty consistent with almost every other solid modelling system out there, from revolves and extrudes to sweeps and lofts, fillets and chamfer. We’ll be taking a look at the growing range of Onshape partner apps next issue, but this month we’ll focus on what’s new and improved in the core service offering. More recently, it launched the beta of its App Store, which sees partners bring on stream a wide variety of applications and services designed to work alongside Onshape, from simulation and rendering, to fabrication and machining.
