Hi all!

Let's start a new challenge on the myCAD platform :star_struck:

This time, we invite you to make your SOLIDWORKS or CATIA tutorial to share your best design tip with the members!

Do you have a technique or function that allows you to go faster on SOLIDWORKS or CATIA or to improve your use? Submit your idea to try to win the challenge!

You have one month, until May 10, 2024, to submit your tutorial: in the form of a word, pdf or video, you decide the best way to understand your tip.

Our SOLIDWORKS trainers will decide on the most relevant trick, capable of helping as many members as possible!

The result? You can win 1 year of myCADservices Premium (1 license): the bouquet of applications and tools dedicated to the design office! Visiativ myCADservices Premium

Hello @coralie;

I'm trying to publish a little tutorial ... but impossible to save it:
" Impossible to convert" says the little pop-up on the publish area (save/view).
However, there is only a small JPG of 120kb and a pdf of 300 Kb!

I give up.

@Maclane maybe someone will make a tutorial, to explain how to post a tutorial! :crazy_face:
Did you remove all accents and special characters from file names before posting them?

… Unsure... but I don't say it very loudly because I regularly fight against my engineers on this subject... :crazy_face:
I'm waiting for the tutorial or I'll try again ... What to choose...

XX th attempt.
Without special characters (but then none, nada, nothing, waloo...) it's still a failure.
Too bad (for you, more than for me, I have this tutorial...). :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: (nananéreuhhh...!)

Hi all

We're going to remove the viewer part so you can't be blocked anymore from this afternoon!
Don't panic :yum:

You can add your tutorial :slight_smile:
Take the test!

I managed to post my Tutorial, but it seems that the *.pdf file is not visible (and therefore accessible) by the community... It's balo!

Hello everyone,

Although our colleague has not yet posted it, I would have voted for him.

Let me explain (otherwise I'll look like a guy who is no longer waterproof)
A few years ago, the brilliant cool legue had set up how to make a multi-strand cable which was not necessarily straight. Very complicated to understand but great as to the result.

If Cool bequeaths remembers what he did, please post the template or give us the link.

ZZ :zzz:

PS: I hope that @mihailovich Pierre (who doesn't come to see you much anymore) will come because he has produced a lot of good tutorials

YESiiiiiiiiiiiiiii that's what :slightly_smiling_face: Boing is all about! :upside_down_face: Boing! :slightly_smiling_face: Boing! :upside_down_face: !

I wasn't wrong in saying that he was a super cool guy who shared this with us.
I must say that I kept it on the screen desk for a long time because it stuck to me.

My dear Double L you are ready to make us a Boy surface or a bottle of Klein so the walls would be made of tangent cables.

Kind regards

Hello Coralie
For this challenge, my original is here from a " powerpoint " including GIFs that I save as a slideshow (ppsx). I'm told that the google player sometimes distorts slideshows (ppsx). What format should be preferred so that it is accessible to everyone in a complete and problem-free way?
Thank you

Hello

In ppt just save in mp4 format

Kind regards

I have an example if you need :wink:

Hello @descamps,

It is better to favor the classic powerpoint format (pptx) and save your gifs in mp4 format (thank you @Zozo_mp :slight_smile: )
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to let me know!

Well, uh! I explained myself badly :wink:
to make it simpler and avoid conversion within the TPP.
Just save the PPT file directly to mp4 and it takes care of itself.
This way the original file is not modified.
