True Machining with Solid Model Analyzer
It would be nice is there was an option to show the true tool paths and parts (radius in a corner) that shows where the router bit will leave a radius instead of a 90 degree inside corner. It would just be nice to see because once and awhile I miss spotsSMA template product
I'd guess not, but is there a template product that SMA uses that we can modify to add some basic prompts, subassemblies, etc? For instance, I'd like to add a prompt to toggle "hidden parts", add a subassembly for our Flatshots, and remove the defaultFeature Request: Pointers for Materials in Smart Layers
Can we please get pointers for Smart Layers and Solid Model Analyzing? We use Formula driven Materials and it would be great to set the materials to pointers instead of hard setting the materials to each part.lock position

I have screw construction set up with dados and those holes are reading .2756 which isn't even a drill bit size we have or I have set it to. I want it to be 3mm actually. The other issue is the drawer slide pilot holes are showing 3mm when I have changed them to 5mm. Am I missing something here? Also to add, when I change those settings below to 3mm, neither set of pilot holes change even after I redraw them.How to populate Job Number in the Extended Data 1 of the material
