Solid properties
Solid properties
(OP)
There was a add-in for Solidworks called Solidprop or something like that but it does not work with the x64 version. Does anyone know of a version for the x64 machines?

Have you tried contacting the author. His address is in the PDF manual. He is a member here, although he hasn't logged in for over a year.

BTW, I am still running a x32 system so don't know what does or doesn't work for x64 systems.
You may have to experiment and see which one works best for you. The SW2009 property manager is supposedly been improved, but do not have '09 installed yet.
What are you trying to do that the SW version doesn't do for you?

Before going to a separate macro or third party solution I suggest looking at the new abilities of SWX09.

RE: Solid properties
The Autoprop is just a simple macro that writes to the existing Solidworks Properties so no modifications being done to the software so it should work fine when 09 comes out at which point I will look into what you are talking about. Although I can't upgrade till our vendors do since Solidworks is behind the times and lying to us about not being able to save to an older version. There sister software Catia has the ability to do it and they are both made by the same company. But that is for another forum.
RE: Solid properties
What do you mean by "lying to us"? I don't recall SolidWorks ever claiming to be able to save to a previous version. SW and Catia are not made by the same company either. SW is owned by Dassault, not made by Dassault. There's a difference.

"Solidworks is behind the times and lying to us about not being able to save to an older version"
Most, if not all, the major solid modellers do not offer that function ... other than saving as a dumb file format.
Who lied to you?
Did they actually say that SW was backwards compatible?
RE: Solid properties
I had talked to a solidworks tech directly don't remember his name a few years ago and he said you can't do that in 3D modeling but yet I have seen it done with there sister program Catia that as with anything has it's ups and downs but has this feature so I know it CAN be done they just don't want to.
You also can't tell me one or the other does not have any influence on the other.
But like I said it is for another forum so this is my last post on the subject.
