Good morning to all,
I often find myself importing dxf, I often happen to have various parts of an undefined sketch (which creates huge problems in case of parameterization of a part)
question: do you know if there is a way to know which parts are not defined?
for example in the sketch in img (blue is x defined) the line circled in red me the color as defined but having the end in half air is actually not entirely; in this case the thing is obvious but often I happen when the line is so close to the following and you can't find it if you don't try it one by one..... Do you know a faster method and maybe tell me or highlight undefined points?Es.webpthank you very much for the courteous attention
good day and good work at all
 
in options-> system options-> disk-> display points of entities in parts / assembling sketches, if you activate the check, you will see in the sketches the ends of segments highlighted by boxes, and these will be colored according to the same line code. in your blue case by definition, other if not defined.
 
Undefined elements are, by default, blue. the ends of the undefined lines are displayed with a blue point.
 
the undefined element is always of the same color. if he has set the blue both for the defined and not defined perhaps did not make a wise choice.
Your first risoosta is more complete than my
 
Now let me make a little bit of controversy, which does not concern strudeldimele directly, but has a broader response.
In recent times, questions like how ever solid is very slow, the table weighs a lot and so on.
Here, import a sketch and use it to make 5...10...35 functions is one of those reasons.
remaining on the image in object that looks like a classic tree, with seeger seats and with bushing with bearing housing. who thinks that importing it from dxf saves time is wrong (especially if it has to be parameterized) because
- it is necessary to check that it has no subdefined entities
- it is necessary to be 100% sure that all lines are horizontal and vertical, obviously excluding those that should not be; and must always keep in mind that in autocad or those for him not all use the garden and rely on magnetic deductions, which even less use geometric constraints and just nothing to tilt a line. then there can be overlapping lines
- must clean the dxf from useless things or before or after import
-doing the functions you have to pay much more attention to the areas you select
-more odds means more difficult in making changes
-more entity means more recalculating function

stop thinking how much time would you save if you did sketches and simple and well organized functions starting from scratch... and do not forget that while you do the model reading a drawing or detecting the measurements from a dxf you are also doing a control and you can notice missing quotas, unclear zones and other that will serve to improve the design and enclosure information

end polemics go to peace
 
Good morning to all
thank you very much for the help, in fact x me the simplest solution is to add the points of the tick lines that I had removed xè all those points bothered me; As for the colors, I modified them according to my needs, do not take into account the normal colors.
Imported dxfs are a problem most often (non-precise quotas, lines with incorrect inclination or "almost" parallel, vertical etc.) but in some cases I am forced to do so otherwise I would put the triple of time.
cmq many according to me are personalizations that can change both in person and according to the work/project to be carried out; often it is difficult to find a uniquely correct method.
thanks as always for the courteous collaboration
good day and good work at all
