Dimension Palette is a great new function in SolidWorks 2010 that allows the user to edit most commonly accessed aspects of a dimension, right from the main drawing view pane.

SolidWorks 2010 tune-up

August 26, 2009 in CAD, SolidWorks

There’s something different about SolidWorks 2010. It’s hard to put my finger on it. It just seems to be a little …oh I don’t know… snappier or peppier. That’s strange. I mean, there are obvious improvements in such areas as user interface, reliability and predictable feature results, but there’s something else.

Well, I lie, I know exactly [...]

HOW TO CHANGE EXISTING SW FILE SYSTEM OPTIONS

August 22, 2009 in CAD, SolidWorks

I have heard this request many times so putting it up over here. The whole credit for this should go to Stefan Berlitz of http://solidworks.cad.de/ http://swtools.cad.de . Without his wonderful macro, this option might not have been possible.

Before starting the process I will strongly advise you to make a backup of the files.

Open you part, [...]

SolidWorks World 2010: Call for Papers

August 20, 2009 in CAD, SolidWorks

SolidWorks World wouldn’t be the same without the Breakout Sessions and their presenters. Each year, there is a call for papers. This is where anyone with experience in a particular topic can propose a presentation as a speaker. Not everyone who submits a paper will have their presentation accepted. However, you never know.

Topics of interest [...]

August 20, 2009 in CAD, SolidWorks

When Jon Hirschtick talks, his excitement is infectious. Maybe reason for this is that he is excited about what he’s talking about. At the recent visit to SolidWorks headquarters, several of us SolidWorks bloggers got to met with Jon again, but it never seems like enough time.

He talked about how he likes to keep up [...]

SolidWorks Labs

August 13, 2009 in CAD, SolidWorks

One of the more fascinating groups at SolidWorks Corp is SolidWorks Labs. The R&D members in this group really have no central location from which they operate. They are dispersed throughout the world. They work by taking tons of input from many different sources and funnelling these into their group for development. Technology they develop [...]
