I have a slot on a power screw for a ball bearing, but I'm not sure how to constrain the ball bearing to the slot. I built the ball bearing using the wireframe sphere command, not sure if that's the issue. When I try to do contact constraint it won't allow me to select the slot. Even if I make the helix of the slot visible, I can't select that. Slot Generator (Tip #2101) from Steven Johnson accepts parameter input for drawing a slot at any angle. Load the LSP code and type SLOT at the Command line to activate. Two options are available. You can define a slot from end to end or from center to center. After making your choice, enter (or show) the slot angle, width and length.

Other Some important Tips of AUTOCAD
Tip 1. The Command “Laydel”. This will allow you to delete everything on a layer, even the most stubborn of layers. Won’t delete “Layer 0” or “Defpoints”.
Tip 2. When doing a corner use the fillet command. Instead of typing in a radious of “0”, you can just hold the “shift” key to automatically get a corner.
Tip 3. You can select and move multiple grips by holding down the shift key.
Tip 4. System default PEDITACCEPT. Set this to “1”. This will get rid of that annoying prompt when converting a line to a polyline.
Tip 5. Command “Texttofront”. brings all text to front
Tip 6. Command “Hatchtoback”. Guess what this does!
