Where's smartmates
Where's smartmates
(OP)
I have been using Solidworks for several years and a couple of versions back they introduced "Smart Mates". We were told by our VAR how much easier hardware mating was using it. Well,,I didnt like it at first and grumbled for a while about it. Then eventually, I got to the point where I was using it most of the time for simple hardware mating. Now we are using SW2004 SP1.0 and I cant seem to find smart mates anywhere.. I have seen the new thing that pops up allowing you to select the type of mate in the model window but it is not the same. Has anyone seen smartmates in SW2004 or is it simply gone?

I never noticed that icon there b4, I went back to SW2003 and found that it is there also. Does anyone know how I can assign a keyboard shortcut for smartmates either under customize or with the use of a simple macro? I havent been able to find smartmates under customize/keyboard.
