BikeCAD Pro How To Forum

Hi,
 

I'm experiencing an error when trying out the AI tool to compare frame stifnesses.

I've tried it on mutiple frames I've created, and also tried it on the frame that loads on initial start up.

BikeCAD 23.3

Thanks,

Chris

Scroll speed in the settings menu is extremely low. What gives me a full page say in a browser scrolls only a single line in Swing. Is there a config parameter I can set to speed up scrolling? Also, is there a setting that makes bike cad remember the previous window size of the Customize dialog?

I'm on Linux Mint 22.3.

Bottle location and size reverts to a default dimension of 200mm and a  small bottle size.

Happens when I open an old file.  In 23.2 it defaults back to 200mm/small bottle if saved and reopened after correcting the bottle location/size.

Thanks,

Ralph

Hello!

The title is self explanatory, is it possible to add ISCG05 tabs to the BB Shell?

Thanks in advance

Hi there.  The file for my most recent frame has this strange blue line on it.  I can't figure out how to get rid of it.  It follows my cursor around.  It seems to fixed on the right point.  The left point seems to reset to the center of the BB sometimes.  I've tried clearing dimensions, turning everything on/off.  I'm stumped.

Hello guys, how are you doing?

Today i want to ask how to connect the seatstays to the top tube sides, just so both get attached in a similar way to the commencal meta ht v2 (https://www.commencal.com/us/en/commencal-meta-ht-am-ohlins-ash-grey/22METAHTAMOH.html?lang=en_US).

I tried to mount the seat stays to the top tube using the seat stays popup, but look like they only get attached to the downside of the toptube, instead of the sides (drive and non-drive).

Thanks in advance guys!

I was delving deeper into the paint options and had an idea that would significantly improve my workflow. I "designed" a color and paint scheme and wanted to copy it to another frame drawing. The only solution I found was to note the parameters from the window and manually enter them into the other project. Then I thought, how cool would it be to have paint presets?! Does something like this already exist?

I'm not sure if this is (still) a feature request, but I got a streamdeck to help me remember how to do certain things in bikecad (I'm not great remembering icons only) and can only see "shortcuts" for a few top level options like file, view and help whereas I'd like to shortcut the things I often forget like how to see the stay clearance, etc.

Is there an API available or shortcut keys so I can program macros into my steam deck? I saw a request from years ago, but wasn't certain if I'd missed where or how these are implemented.

Several dropouts have hangers but aren't using them. Instead, the derailleur is mounted to the axle.

Affected:

• Allotec C23
• Allotec C49
• Allotec C64
• Artefact DR30
• Coast Cycles

Everything else appears to be correct. Went through every static drawing with a transparent derailluer to check. :)

Unless there's an option I'm missing? But then it'd be odd that others are auto detected.

In my opinion, the big selling point of offers such as bikefitting.com (by Shimano) and Retül is their large frame databases. In the context of BikeCAD, you could use the fit advisor to determine a starting point for the bike geometry, then potentially refine it by putting the rider on a fitting bike and then you could use those databases to automatically create a ranking of the frames that come closest to the target geometry, among all the available frames on the market.
