SLDDOT v SLDDRT
SLDDOT v SLDDRT
(OP)
I created a number of templates for various drawing sizes. Each drawing size has a sht1 template and a cont sht template. I saved these as *.SLDDOT's. Everything works fine unless you want to change the size of a drawing. When you go into the properties and browse, the dialog box shows just *.DRT's and *.SLDDRT's. Anyone know the fix?

I quit trying to understand WHY they made 2 "templates" and instead just accept that it does and got used to it.

You had default settings for dimension standards and such that are now known as "Document Settings". The templates (dot) they added allowed for you to save multiple settings like metric files and english which you couldn't do before.

While adding a new sheet 2, from sheet 1. A sheet 2 is create, but the sheet template is really sheet 1. Then I have to reload sheet 2 template.
I checked with my VAR and he says this is true. Someday it will be fixed.
Does anyone of you not have this problem in SolidWorks 2007 SP 2.0?

For example, if I am currently on an "A" size sheet (8 1/2" x 11") and I add a sheet, the new sheet is an A size sheet. If I am currently on a "B" size sheet (11 1/2" x 17"), the new sheet will be a B size sheet. Most of my drawings are mixed sheets. I wish they still gave you the choice on what size sheet to add.

In SW07, you can't pick the sheet format until AFTER you added the sheet.

For me, the 2007 is more desireable....but I can see why you may want it back the way it was.
