Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

(OP)
A few years ago I created a Hidden Solidworks Commands document and listed it as shared with anyone with the link. I have since updated that link to public. It needs some updating, but please be gentle with it and make sure the command is truly hidden.

For example: If you hold the Tab key down in an assembly and drag your mouse over the components the components Auto Hide and Shift+Tab does the opposite. I never knew that and many of my colleages did not either.

RE: Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

I’m assuming this is version/SP specific? We’re still stuck in SW2011 (SP5.0) and it doesn’t work. :(

RE: Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

I believe that was introduced in SW13.

RE: Hidden Solidworks Commands - Open to Public

Thanks Scott.
One editing note - the "Shift+C" to collapse tree command is listed twice.

Ebbie22,

The file was created about 2010 or 2011, I think. THe file can now be changed by yourself. If you want to include stuff for just 2012, then add a Title or something that defines the next release.

MartinShane,

I only see one "Shift+C" etc... in the document... where do you see a 2nd one? The one I see is just above

Quote (Angular Dimensions can be changed to "0 "or as a negative, e.g. "-5")

Also in the second to last bullet point -

"To Collapse the tree you do not need to select the "File name" in the very top of the tree. Just select "Shift+C" to collapse everything in the tree."

Thanks... I removed it, completely missed that one
