Thank you Sergio. I will have a look at SW and see if I can find an internal way to export it, but I doubt its possible with the current models. I suspect it would be easy if they were modeled as structural members in a weldment assembly, but if i…

I have a question in relation to my initial one. I have started using Salome to do meshing, and i must say i quite like it after the initial steep learning curve. One thing though: Coming from Solidworks simulation i would have the option to "Treat…

Beautiful tutorial @Sergio. I really appreciate the work you've put into it. Thank you! Are you going to be making more like this? I think there's potential for YouTube channel :-)

@Sergio i see now what you mean. One thing that is maddening is that i can't seem to find a way to set "Meshing parameters", Material etc. with 1 click. Is it not possible to select multiple similar tree items at a time, and set the options for all …

Yes, it is not for actual use. But it's nice to see that the software is capable of handling models of that size. In what specific ways do you think that it will be a nightmare?

Also, as i end up having quite a few bonded contacts: is there any way to have Mecway highligt which contacts are in question when you activate the bonded contact from the tree? It works as expected when activating either the slave or master.

Hi Sergio, Thanks again for your awesome feedback Sergio. I appreciate our contact over reddit. 1) Great advice! It worked flawlessly, although it is a cumbersome proces. I wonder if i can get a SolidWorks macro set up that suppresses all parts ex…

I just realised that i was making it more difficult for myself by first saving the assembly as a part, and then exporting to .step. Simply saving the assembly as .step yields the same import in Mecway. I still struggle with manipulating the model on…

Hi, I'm actually making the same switch myself, and would love to share notes. I sent you a DM.

New user here. I can report that running Mecway 15 on Ubuntu 22.04 through wine 7 is running smooth. I simply installed wine and installed the mecway .msi file with it, and launch it through the dashboard. terminal commands (leave out comments an…
