yes we were having this problem with 2006 sp2.0 before that no

RE: e drawing

I have also been having part color issues with edrawings.  About 75% of my parts turn green when I create the edrawing.  Would love to hear if anyone knows what might be causing this.

Thanks

SW SP 2.0
Edrawings 2006 version 6.0.0.622

RE: e drawing

(OP)
i have found out from solidworks today that the reason a lot of the parts turn green in edrawing is that i didnt have the up to date service pack for edrawing the latest version is sp3.0 th esame as solidworks but it has to be downloaded seperately. hope that helps somebody.  

RE: e drawing

I also have a problem with the edrawings.
If you cut and paste a excel spreadsheet into the solidworks drawings, when you view it with an edrawings the resolution goes to all hell just for the table.
