How do you create pneumatic schematics?
(OP)
We finally upgraded from SWX 2004 to 2005. I've been playing around with the DWGEditor. I know it's basically Intellicad, which is a knockoff of Autocad. I was hoping for something a little more integrated into SolidWorks.
How do most of you create pneumatic schematics? SWX, DWGEditor or an external program like Autocad or Visio?

Give Microsoft Visio a look.

RE: How do you create pneumatic schematics?
You can create blocks (cylinders, valves,...) with attributes (part name, part number, technical data,...) and, with a macro, create a BOM (I still didn't figure out completely this last part as the VB it's a little different than Acad).

Still, it's an application on it's own (you can download the installation program), so you can loose support but you've payied for the license to use it.
We are terminating the use of ACAD (legacy drawings)and switching to DWGEditor.
The biggest problem it's the macros conversion (not much help with the API).
