Changing Shaft to shaft distance

Post by Peter »

I'm trying to make a gearbox and looking to change the shaft to shaft distance between gears. Is there any way to do this, or will i have to export the DXF and manually change it ??

By the this is a great program..

Peter:


  On the round gears creation page, there is a button labeled calculator, use that
when you have the two gears you need on the screen as wheel and pinion. The first selection
lets you set the shaft to shaft distance, the calculator will then change the mod on the gears
so they  match that shaft distance..
