Make sure to go to Tools > Options > System Options > Sketch > and make sure that "Enable spline tangency and curvature handles" is enabled. Now you should be able to adjust the spline :)

@@learnsolidworks thanks mate. Please upload more cool designs. I find you very highly skilled and cool personality the way you use the features of SW's. See you soon.

@@RishiSharma-ti4bt I will! :) Also check learnsolidworks.com for many more SOLIDWORKS product modeling tutorials

@@learnsolidworks sure. I will :)

If the spline handles are completely missing when clicking on the spline, they can be enabled by going to Tools > Options > System Options tab > Sketch > "Enable spline tangency and curvature handles"

Make sure to turn on your Realview Graphics. Go to the top menu bar > Click on View > Navigate to Display > Look for RealView Graphics in the dropdown menu. If your graphics card supports it, this option should be available. Simply click on it to enable. :)

@@learnsolidworks Thank you !

Thank you for your feedback! If your line is divided into three parts, you can use the Selection Manager to select all three segments as a single line. This should help you successfully create the surface loft. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!

You're very welcome! :) Glad you liked it!

I used the Split Line feature to divide the flat surface. This allows us to delete only a portion of the surface instead of the entire surface.

I'm not entirely sure what might be causing the problem-likely a local setting. However, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue: Delete Unwanted Relations: Look for any automatic relations (like tangents) that might have been added. Delete any that are causing the issue. Control Key Tip: Hold down the Control button while drawing the lines. This prevents SolidWorks from adding automatic relations.

@@learnsolidworks Okay, Thank you

Thanks Graham, this means a lot to me! :) I also want to invite you to check out my SOLIDWORKS & CFD Formula 1 course: www.learnsolidworks.com/f1

Thanks!!! :)

You're welcome! I'm glad to hear you completed the tutorial and learned so much! 😊

Thanks Alex! :) For everyone interested in modeling an F1 helmet as well, check www.learnsolidworks.com/f1

@@learnsolidworks I am already watching the last video of this course, where you add colours and etc. The course is amazing!! Just learned several great things, your courses are amazing. thanks a lot

@@AlexAlex-go9hg thanks Alex! :)

@@learnsolidworks The last video when you add appearances to the helmet is amazing!!! I finally learned how to normally apply appearances and etc, I never knew about this mapping options and etc, The part when you had issues with projecting text is super useful, very advanced. You are the best, Hopefully I will be able to buy some of your full courses, it is defenetelly the best content in the internet. All the best

Hi! It sounds like you're encountering issues with your lofted surface not merging with the existing body. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this issue: Check for Gaps: Ensure there are no small gaps between the lofted surface and the existing body. Even tiny gaps can prevent surfaces from merging. You might need to zoom in and inspect the edges closely. Adjust End Constraints: When creating the lofted surface, try adjusting the end constraints (tangency, curvature, etc.) to ensure that the surface blends smoothly with the existing body. This can sometimes help with the merging process. Use the “Merge Tangent Faces” Option: When you create the lofted surface, make sure to check the “Merge tangent faces” option in the loft feature settings if available. This can help in seamlessly integrating the new surface with the existing body. Use the Knit Surface Tool: If the lofted surface still doesn’t merge automatically, use the Knit Surface tool. In the Knit Surface options, make sure to select both the lofted surface and the body. Also, check the "Merge entities" option. Check Surface Continuity: Ensure that the continuity between the surfaces is sufficient for merging. Sometimes, surfaces need to be G2 continuous (curvature continuous) to merge properly. Rebuild and Simplify: If all else fails, try rebuilding the surfaces involved or simplifying the geometry to see if that helps in merging. If none of these steps work, providing more details or screenshots of the specific issue might help in diagnosing the problem further. Good luck, and feel free to reach out if you have more questions!

Make sure to select the surface in the Surface Bodies folder. This way you know for sure you're hiding the correct surface body :)

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I'm thrilled to hear that you found my videos helpful. Your feedback means a lot! Wishing you all the best in your SolidWorks journey! 😊

Thanks for your kind words Gary! :)

Thank you for your feedback and kind words about the video! You are indeed right that it's difficult to adjust the glasses later on with the method shown. However, the goal of this video is to introduce people to surface modeling by modeling a product. The aim is not to create a perfect glasses design that can be adjusted later. I'm glad you found the design flow interesting and enjoyed seeing a different approach to designing frames. Your insights and experience with designing for top sunglass makers are much appreciated. Thanks again for watching and sharing your thoughts! :)

Thank you for your comment! The subtle edge you're seeing in the middle of the frame after using the Mirror feature is a common issue. It often happens because of slight misalignments or imperfections in the geometry that get mirrored. Here's a tip to address this: Ensure symmetry before mirroring: Double-check that the original half is perfectly symmetrical and clean before applying the Mirror feature. Any small imperfections will be duplicated and can cause that edge.

Thank you for reaching out. To select the surface for the cut at 16:41, please try accessing it through the "Surfaces Bodies" folder in the feature tree. Sometimes, directly selecting it from the revolve feature might not work as expected. If you're still encountering difficulties despite trying this method, please feel free to email your SOLIDWORKS file to [email protected]. I'd be happy to take a look and provide further assistance. Best regards, Jan

Wait nevermind I saw the learn solidworks thing but I have a question do I actually have to put my email I don’t want to put it in there

@@IcedFireboy11 yes

Absolutely, having some kind of underlayer (a blueprint, hand sketch or picture of glasses with similar dimensions) definitely makes things easier. In this case, though, we had the overall width and height of the frame, as well as the length of the stem above the ear. Sometimes, even with all the tools and knowledge, it's like trying to paint a picture with your eyes closed, isn't it? Glad we could navigate this one smoothly! :)

Thanks Mohammad! :)

Thanks, glad to hear you liked it! :)

Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot coming from someone with your level of experience. Teaching complex subjects like construction project management and Microsoft products can be challenging, so I'm glad to hear that you think I did a good job conveying the material. :)
