I have started to play around with weldments (never used them before). I fumbled through the SolidWorks tutorial and decided to try some on my own. I have placed several gussets on the attached weldment, but can't seem to get one to show up in one corner. I'm getting a "please select a planar or cyclindrical face" error. As far as I can tell, it is planar. So I'm wondering if this is a bug, or am I doing something wrong. Also, I'm curious as to why SolidWorks has such a small library of structural members. Is there a property box somewhere that allows you to set the size of a structural member or does one need to create his own library. If one does need to create a library, how do you access it? Is there a path the library needs to be in so that when you click on the add structural member icon, that it will display the library as well?
Thanks,
Bob
I rolled back the feature up to trim extend 1, added gusset, roll to end and move the gusset to end.
