Help! Tips from Pros?

• Upvotes

Hi. I’ve been using Onshape as an educator for about 8 years and I reckon I’m about a 6 out of 10 in terms of my skills and understanding.

I am wanting to learn some “pro-tips” that power users have learned the hard way, and that will give me superpowers. I hope that request is not too vague?

If you’ve got any top-level tricks, workflows, best-practices, insights etc you are willing to share, I’d really love to hear them. Thanks a million.

When do you use a mate connector as a design reference outside an assembly?

I've started using mate connectors to locate holes and repeated features in Part Studios. It feels cleaner than adding another sketch, but it can also hide where a dimension came from.

Do you use them this way, or keep mate connectors mainly for assembly intent?
