distance mate in 2007
distance mate in 2007
(OP)
Why did solidworks change the default distance mate to 1?
In previous release it would give the actual distance and not default to 1 like 07.
Is there any way to go back to the old way? A check box/setting?
I've gotten used to dragging a componet close to where i want it go into mate and have that distance right there just need to "fine tune" it.
To me it seems to waste more time as i have to guess the distance now or mesure before i do the mate.
thanks for any advice.
