When working with complex 3D models in IRONCAD it can sometimes be difficult to keep track of which parts are original and which have been created via mirroring. Fortunately, there is a simple method to visualize all mirrored parts directly in the Scene Browser, making model management both faster and more structured.
To activate the indicator, first open the Scene Browser in IRONCAD. Click on the Tree icon and select More filter. In the list that appears, find the Mirror Part or Assembly option. Check the box and all the mirrored components of your model will now be clearly displayed.
This feature provides a visual overview and helps you to directly identify which objects are mirrored, which is invaluable when making changes to the model. If you edit the original part, you can safely understand which mirrored parts are affected.
Using the indicator saves time, reduces the risk of errors and makes you work more efficiently in IRONCAD. It is particularly useful for larger assemblies and projects where many parts are mirrored, as you can quickly navigate, filter and manage the components without losing overview.
With this simple tip, you can optimize your workflow in IRONCAD and gain full control over all mirrored parts in your 3D models.
Answer: Here we publish tips, guides, news and solutions for those who work with IRONCAD and Design Data Manager (DDM). The blog covers everything from basic functions to advanced workflows, helping you to optimize your design work. You'll find examples of smart shortcuts, practical instructions, solutions to common problems, and best practices for product design, mechanical design, and product data management.
Answer: Our guides and tips are designed for both beginners and experienced CAD users. They are aimed at designers, engineers and project managers who want to work more efficiently with IRONCAD and DDM, improve the design process, reduce mistakes and save time in product development.
Answer: We regularly publish new articles when the software is updated, when new features are introduced, or when our users ask for solutions to specific problems. The blog is therefore a reliable source for keeping up to date and getting tips that make everyday CAD work easier.
Answer: Many of our instructions and tips work in multiple versions, but we clearly indicate if an article applies to a specific version. We strive to make the content useful for older versions as well, and also provide recommendations on how to adapt workflows to the version you are using.
Answer: Absolutely! If you can't find the solution in the blog, you can contact our technical support via solidmakarna.support. Our experts will help you with everything from installation and configuration to advanced features in IRONCAD and DDM, so you can solve problems quickly and efficiently.
Answer: Yes! We appreciate suggestions from our users. If you have questions, tips or want us to address a specific issue in IRONCAD or DDM , please contact us via our contact form and we will prioritize relevant topics in future posts.
Answer: The blog contains, among other things:
Practical step-by-step guides to help you use IRONCAD and DDM more effectively.
Productivity and workflow tips for faster design and construction.
Solutions to common problems encountered by users in CAD programs.
Updates and news on new features, versions and improvements.
Best practices for data management and project organization in DDM.
Answer: All tips and guides are directly applicable in daily work. For example, you can use shortcuts and smart features in IRONCAD to speed up modeling, structure files better in Design Data Manager, or follow our step-by-step solutions for specific problems that often come up in design projects.
Answer: We strive to ensure that all guides and tips are relevant to the latest versions of IRONCAD and DDM. We also clearly mark when a post applies to an older version, so you always know if the instruction is directly applicable to your system.
Answer: Yes! Many of our users share the articles with colleagues and use them as internal training materials. The blog is a great complement to formal training and helps teams learn features faster, avoid mistakes, and standardize workflows in IRONCAD and DDM.
