Sheet Metal Form

You can now create form features, such as louvers, bridge lances, slot embosses, extrudes, and punches on existing sheet metal models. In addition, you can create your own library of custom forms, and this release ships with a set of forms to get you started in the Onshape sheet metal forms library.

Sketch Chamfer

A new Chamfer tool in sketch enables the quick addition of chamfers between entities.

Drawings

Parametric Sketching

Lines, circles, and points added to a Drawing sheet can now be constrained and dimensioned relative to drawing view geometry.

Stacked Callouts

Callouts can now be stacked to detail groups of related parts or parts within close proximity of each other.

Detail View Border

The border of a Detail view may now be shown clipped to the view geometry for added clarity.

Exclude Off Sheet Content

Off sheet content can now be excluded when exporting drawings in DWG, DXF, or DWT file formats.
