import diagnosis

Feb 08, 2005 8 Replies

I import a model today that imported as a body with errors. no problem i thought i would right-click on the Import body and run Diagnosis. To my surprise i could not find it. i've looked everywhere, but diagnosis is know where to be found. Pre Sw2005 i used it alot, this is the first time i've needed it. Any ideas where it went? THANKS

David,

It works for me. SolidWorks 2005 SP1.0 RC. Select "customize" from the right click popup menu and make sure "Diagnosis" is checked to show in the menu.

Buster,

It's only available if the imported part has errors. Otherwise, there's nothing to diagnose

For Import Diagnosis to works, there can't be any other features except the base datums, origin, and imported features.

We have templates with added axes in X, Y, and Z directions. Import Diagnosis is not available unless these features are deleted.

That was it, i had added a z-axis to my templete. Thanks

Not true. I have the diagnosis menu item available even if there are no errors in the imported part/feature.

I thought that you could get Diagnosis back if you roll back to just below the import feature. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case. Was such an option available in the past? Unfortunately, I no longer have any older versions installed and available for testing. I'm running SW 2005 SP

0.0.

So that's what's wrong with me.

What a pain. At least I have the consolation that dafault planes and axes often have no relation to the imported part.
