When drawing a cirular icon appears (mini screen appears which has 4 tools icons) and is difficult to read the measurements and use the tools.  It has now split the screen into 4 sections and I can't return it to a single screen.

I used a calculator at https://evolventdesign.com/pages/calculators  to work out number of teeth, module and OD of the gears so it would fit in the parameters of my printer.  I wanted to draw up the gears in Designsparks using the pressuer angle method. The problem is the Basse Circule is smaller than the Dedendum Circule.  This cases the tooth to be shorter than the Addendum Circule.  My calculations are listed below and so is the drawing. Is there an error in my calculations or the application?            This is the result from the calculator from the website mention above

Hi, I'm working on my personal PCB, based on arduino mega. During the import of sch and the pcb of arduino mega, some errors occured. Durgin the "Forward design changes" function, to update my pcb project, a lot of unrecognized components is appared. Some examples: " [...] Error: Unable to add component reference "PC2" of component "CPOL-EUD", package "PANASONIC_D" because Cannot find component "CPOL-EUD".. Error: Unable to add component reference "ON" of component "LEDCHIP-LED0805", package "CHIP-LED0805" because Cannot find component "LEDCHIP-LED0805".. Error: Unable to add component reference "D1" of component "DIODE-SMB", package "SMB" because Cannot find component "DIODE-SMB".. [...] "   Are there libraries for DesignSpark of Arduino components? Thanks!

Hey! Hi, I realy like DesignSpark 5.0. ... not to happy with Cura 4.3. So, when Cura 5.0 became available I downloaded the program. Problem is that DesignSpark isn't finding it and I can't 3D print any designs. Question: How do I get DS5.0 to find Cura 5.0 (or any other slicing program) so I can, once again, 3D print? Bronco

I am a co-founder and member of a small Hackspace/makerspace/community workshop based in West Berkshire. We have been established in a small workshop for a number of years now. It has the usual equaipment such as 3D printers, lasercutter, electronics area and recently a large CNC Router. With this, there is the potential to increase the amount of dust in the air. Depending on the materials being cut and the effectiveness of dust and fume extraction, there may be an increased risks to health. With ithis being a community space, some members may be more at risk than others. Some equipment has it's own room, such as the 3D printers and electroncis areas. The main workshop is home to the lasercutter, CNC router, lathe, workbenches and other machine tools. The only ventilation in the room is a rear fire door and a door into the entrance hall way. The lasercutter has it's own fume extraction to outside the building. The CNC router has its own dust extraction to a cyclone type collector. My project is to use the ESDK to monitor conditions within the main workshop to detect increases in patriculate matter when using the CNC router, VOC levels when the lasercutter is running and general CO2 levels when the space is being occupied. The indicator gives a Red/Amber/Green visual indication of the air quality based on the readings from the ESDK.  The ESDK is mounted as part of a larger indicator that is to be described fully later. The data is available for other hackspace members to process and visualise as well as integrate into other monitoring and control systems within the workshop. That's the intro, look out for the full article! Regards Andrew      

Bonjour Je desirerais pouvoir ecrire un texte dont le contour soit une decoupe a travers toute l'epaisseur du PCB. Est-ce possible? Dans quelle couche faut-il definir ce texte? Question auxilliaire: Y a-t-il un moyen de generer un fichier dxf decrivant le contour d'un texte? Merci

I need to design a part that attaches to another part with two screws. One screw goes through a pivot hole, while the other screw must go through a curved slot to allow adjustment of the angle between the parts. I want the curved slot to be an arc centered on the first hole. How can I do this? I have drawn two arcs using the Sweep Arc tool, and connected their ends using the Tangent Arc tool. But if I then try to select the enclosed space to pull into a slot, the entire object is selected. What am I missing? How can I make a slot that is an arc? Thanks for all advice. --- Mike   x (x)  

Hi This error screen keeps showing up for me. It happens randomly, but has happened 4 or 5 times in a half an hour working on a relatively simple design. Thank you  

Is it possible to download older versions of DesignSpark PCB? If yes, where?

Investigating to what extend the air quality is affected in the home when a 3D printer is being used. Given the fact the printer will be on for hours sometimes up to 20 hours throughout the day and is using plastic, boiling it at 200 degrees. I wanted to investigate how this affected the air quality in the room where the printer is located.  The printer had been in use two days before and windows opened since, however, on initial measurement the air quality was 2000 rpm. Hence, I opened windows to lower this. Hence, when in actual use I predict the air quality will be even worst perhaps as high as 3000 rpm.  Will be taking measurements without the printer being used firstly to set a baseline for the room.

Hi, If I make my manifacturing plots than I get " None of the plots include the board outline " message. Did I do something wrong?  In some designs I don't have that message, but I don't know what I did different. Many thanks for your help.

Hello, I keep running into this crash all the time. No matter if I'm in sketch mode, solid mode, or move or anything, it will crash. I was running this on a prehistoric potato of a laptop, now I have a new one. No issue with crashing before. But now, on the better machine, it's crash city. Any ideas? I attached scrrenshots of the crash, the laptop specs, and the video. Thanks for any info.

ich habe DesignSpark Mechanical V4.0 installiert und dann V5.0 ausprobiert. Jetzt habe ich V5.0 wieder deinstalliert. Und habe mich für V4.0 entschieden. Kann aber meine Daten aus V4.0 nicht mehr hochladen. Wie kann ich die Dateien aus V4.0 wieder lesen? Mit freundlichen Grüße             Lang

Hi, How can I change the program internal browser ?  I have already tried everything possible but it does not work. What am I doing wrong ? I look forward to help ;)   Best regards

Hi, I am trying to switch off the screen. I am able to enable the screen blanking but the light remains on. Any tips? Thank you. Cheers, Iker.
