3- Minutes – CAD Catia v5 #001 – #009

Sketch Analysis in the Sketcher Workbench

Very useful to get your sketches „iso-constrained“, which means fully constrained in Catia v5

10.3 Schnecke - Drill Bit (version a)

In the Catia v5 Part Design Workbench we need an additional helix in order to create that Drill Bit.

Enhanced Scenes - Fully overloaded

You can save positions, graphical properties, visibility and activation status in enhanced scenes. (fully overloaded = completely independant)

Exploded View with Enhanced Scene

You can create an exploded view in an enhanced scene – you should use a fully overloaded one – enjoy!

Exploded View in Drawing

Using a fully overloaded enhanced scene with an exploded view of your assembly you can easily bring that exploded view in your drawings – enjoy!

Superpose Views & Overload Properties of Views

By using enhanced scenes you can superpose views and overload the properties of those views as well. Enjoy!

Keyboard Shortcuts for every Command

It is quite easy to create keyboard shortcuts for most of the commands in catia v5. For some you need a little „trick“ – enjoy!

Breakout View & 3D Breakout View

In Catia v5 you can apply a 2D Breakout View to a 3D Isoview as well – enjoy! Here you´ll find all about the breakout view: https://youtu.be/_xBUk9GAU-M

Create a Userdefined Toolbar

There are some very useful commands like show/hide all sketches, all planes, all surface etc. Which are not on any standard toolbar. It is quite easy to create a userdefined toolbar and to add these very usefull commands. Enjoy!
