solidworks search path
solidworks search path
(OP)
Is the initial search path in solidworks initially empty?
When I use:
retval = swApp.GetSearchFolders ( folderType)
I get retval = ""
I am worried that if I use SetSeachFolders that I may overwrite a default solidworks search path.
Any help would be appreciated

RE: solidworks search path
Const swDocumentType = 0
I have not used this method so I do not have a sample. Have you seen the NOTES in the API help?
Be aware that SolidWorks will ignore the Search Folder settings unless the Search Document Folder List… is toggled on. To get and set the Search Document Folder List… toggle, refer to SldWorks::GetUserPreferenceToggle and SldWorks::SetUserPreferenceToggle respectively.
