external relations

[cersil]

Hello, everyone. time ago I created a parametric screw. I basically created a sketch, which I called "param",where I define dimensional relationships. then I created another sketch that is connected to the "param" with external relations that then with an extrusion with revolution and other interventions creates my life. going to change the values in the param automatically get the screw I care about.
below you can notice the relationship set for the line7 that binds it to the size of line 17 of the param sketch.
I can't remember how the hell I made this relationship if someone kindly explains it to me. Thank you very much.

but really someone should be able to explain what reasoning you have done in the past to get a result using only 2 images?
My living compliments to anyone who can

first-attended you would say with a very trivial convert entities, but the thing must be more complex if using solidworks for over 10 years you have not come to the head

would you post an image of the feature manager, please?

Sorry it was just a simple convert entity. Thank you for your attention. However, even if I have been trying to learn something for 10 years, I also have moments of little clarity, not for this reason there is a need for sarcasm. But I thank those who, despite the banality of this, have been so kind to respond. Thank you.

Isn't he on the edge of a plan? or was it done in context together?

I asked for the image of the feature manager just to see if external references were used and there are no.

 

[cersil]

Thank you very much.

 

[meccanicamg]

Thank you very much.

But then... I didn't know if it was how you solved it.

for external references I think it means that the sketch2 and following are referred to the param sketch, and not, as commonly understood, referencing another file.

I will be of old school, but for me no sketch that must command all subsequent functions should not be subdefined. I don't know.

But then... I didn't know if it was how you solved it.

simply did not realize that the line had obtained it with a convert entity.
among other things the function of revolution would not even need a new sketch, but you could use the existing one by saving relationships and lightening the reconstruction of the file

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

It wouldn't even hurt if it wasn't @cersil, who has been greatly assisted in these years, shared this file that could be a useful resource for those who would like to approach modeling with this method or simply study the use of equations to parameterize an object.

 

[cersil]

I'll get you two files. One is the one in question and then I give you another that eliminates the "param" sketch and directly uses the only revolution as you have suggested above. are a simple example of parametric screws with multiple configurations. Bye.

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

I give you another one that eliminates the "param" sketch and directly uses the only revolution as you have suggested above.

never wrote such a thing

 

[cersil]

If you don't like to use it. I have an itera toolbox with all the more disparate viteria, than I use instead of that official solidworks that I find less supplied and more rigid.

Apart from that I do not use more solidworks and that I have always written and reiterated that the toolboxes are not to be used because they are full of equations that weigh the modeling, you did not understand what I wrote.
I repeat:
I have not written that you have to delete the sketch "param" and do the only revolution (also because in this way there is a trivial file like another), but I have written that the function of revolution can be done using directly the sketch "param" without having to create a new one (the one that in your file is called sketch2) and converting entities. I hope I've been clear this time.

 

[cersil]

Okay.
