Guys ı have big problem. How can ı change the model dimension/measure without damaging the model? How fix it?

I tried scale the model but it doesn't work.

If you can upload your model (or share a link) and let us know exactly what it is you want to achieve then we'll try to help.

If this answers your question please mark the thread as solved as it can help others find solutions in the future.

Please attach you model and also indicate where the Deformation is occurring and what dimensions you want to change.

I want to change all skecth or hole, shell, extrude . . . dimensions. I created the dimensions randomly so that the drawing was easy. But now I want to enter the original dimensions, but the model is deformed. The problem is more clearly understood in the pictures.

Use Revolve rather than the first Loft for this.

Missing a fillet?

I recommend that you start over from scratch using what was learned from this attempt.

Then entire model can be significantly simplified and of course, more robust and predictable editing.

Ok, all of your sketches are under-defined. First of all I would recommend adding dimensions and geometric constraints to all of your sketches so that all of the geometry is black, the majority of your geometry is currently blue. Once you've fully constrained all of your sketches then you can change dimension values to your hearts content and if you've done it properly then you model shouldn't 'blow up!'.

 

I would strongly recommend going through as many basic tutorials as possible to get a good understanding of design intent and how to build robust models.

Do I have to redraw the model? Can I edit dimension without redrawing the model?

No, there's no need to 'redraw' the model. Start by double-clicking the first sketch in your timeline (the leftmost one). This will put the sketch into edit mode. Add a dimension to the circle. This dimension will drive the circle's diameter. If you want to change the diameter of the circle just double-click the dimension, enter a new value and hit 'enter'. You will see that the size of the circle gets bigger or smaller depending on what you typed in. Click 'Finish Sketch'. Notice that the model immediately reflects the changes you've just made. Repeat this for the remainder of your sketches. However this on its own will not stop your model 'blowing up' if you change your dimensions beyond certain values. I've not looked at your model in that much detail but I'd say the reason it's falling apart is down to the 'Delete Face' features.

 

Probably the easiest way of addressing this would be to delete these features and add them back in once you've got your model sized correctly. 'Delete Faces' is not ideal as it can cause these sorts of issues but I have to admit that I do use it on occasion. You could model it in a slightly different way to avoid using the 'Delete Faces' feature which would be better in the long run.

Yes, I recommend that you start over.

I realized that the first thing I did was to resize Sketch 1 and 2.
But when it did so, the material was deformed as the edge flaps(screw pits) remained in the space.
To prevent this, I first resize the edge flaps(screw pits) and the problem was solved.

 

The flaps distance of the extrude should be greater than the diameter of the circle in front.
Otherwise, the part is deformed. I solved the problem.

 

The solution to the problem was hidden in the dimension change order.

 

Thanks everyone.
