We have purchased SW Professor 2005 Basic and Advanced. Everyone likes them, they are very high quality and worth the money. We have had 3-4 people train themselves with it. They do simple to intermediate level SW work,with next to no questions.
The thing I like SW Professor for is topical...
I started thinking and the only thing I can come up with is that SPECAPP benchmarks were done on SP0 mine were on SP4.
If anyone can run the benchmark on a newer Dell workstation with SP4 I would greatly appreciate it.
I did a search and didnt find anything, but I swear I have discussed benchmark results on here before.
I am specifically looking for some benchmark results for SW 04 or 05 with the SPECAP (radio controlled car). If anyone has any benchmarks from the SPECAP I would love to have them, ESPECIALLY...
Open a SW template, go to edit sheet format mode, open your ACAD template, select all, copy, go to SW, paste.
You will have to do some clean up and positioning etc, but to me that is the easiest way to get anything autocad into SW. Good old copy and paste.
Why not use the SW Task Scheduler. It is already set up so that you can add a property to the custom properties of every part in a directory.
Just create a property called "Name" or whatever you want it to be and dump the value $PRP:"SW-File Name" into it.
It's a little slow as SW will be...
Can anyone using toolbox on a network, share with me their average time needed to insert a fastener. Particularly how log it takes until the dialog box appears where you select the fastener size.
Also who type of network connection speed do you have , 10,100, 1 gig?
After a little more review, on my local machine with the 100MB connection it doesnt matter if I bring in the largest 2.3 meg fastener or the smallest 111k fastener, it still takes about 30 seconds before I can even choose the size I want.
We have our "SolidWorks Data" (formerly known as "Toolbox Parts") directory on a server that everyone in our group accesses all day long. Nothing about this server is slow. We work with 1000 piece assemblies off of it just fine.
However, when I go to insert a toolbox fastener of any type it...
Choose from the pulldown View/Sketches. It should have a check mark beside it. If it already has a check mark beside it and is greyed out the View/Hide all Types option is turned on. Choose View/Hide All Types to deselect that option.
Your sketchs should them be able to be shown.
I have an IBMT42P very close to what you have listed above, as far as SolidWorks goes it is great, no problems at all, the ATI FireGL T2 is really an awesome card when working with SW. I am not a gamer so I cant speak to that.
I did not try manually double clicking on the .msi file. I did try manually double clicking on the .exe file, and I tried using the .msi with a .mst as well as and .exe with a .ini.
Of those last three that I tried only the .exe with .ini worked.
I am not interested in manually double...
Ok here is the solution in a long winded format.....
Initially I was using the .msi file with the .mst to pass properties.
This was not allowing the new service packs to automatically update. I then created a fresh admin image at sp0. Went to a clean PC, installed SW by double clicking on the...
Bouke,
I have done the exact same thing that you have done except you use the .exe with a .ini file and I use the .msi with a .mst file. The end result should be the same, a silent install with all options passed in the background.
I will try it with the .exe .ini process and see if it makes a...
