    associating sat files to open sing solidworks.

    AFter navigating to the SW folder (C:\Program Files\SOLIDWORKS Corp\SOLIDWORKS) & I select solidworks.exe and then click on the "open" dialogue box the error message is The program you have selected cannot be associated with this file type. Please choose another program. SW 2020 SP 4.0

    associating sat files to open sing solidworks.

    That is what I tried. Open with, then navigate to solidworks.exe. When looking at step files they have the solidworks icon associated with it, its just sat files that don't seem to want to work. Its starting to sound like its a windows thing unless someone knows of a specific reason sat files...

    associating sat files to open sing solidworks.

    Does this mean that I cannot assign SolidWorks as the default program for opening sat files? That doesn't sound right. SW 2015 SP 4.0 x64

    can a column in a SW BOM display if the item has an existing drawing...

    Thanks for all the input, from everyone. I have resigned myself to the fact that I will need to create some code that will read the filename on the first modelname in the assembly tree (parts ABCD are saved as ABCD), then search the working directory for modelname.slddrw, if that exists I will...

    can a column in a SW BOM display if the item has an existing drawing...

    That is exactly the info I am looking for thru the API, in SolidWorks explorer it also has the files reference in the whereused list. It is just a matter of what method to call. I have bee searching thru the list of methods but I cant find the one that fits. SW 2015 SP 2.1 x64

    can a column in a SW BOM display if the item has an existing drawing...

    Thanks for the reply, the drawing not created is the condition I want to catch. Manually entered custom properties are seldom reliable. We have a third party program that creates documents based on the BOM of drawings and the presence of part drawings. Some times there are 100+ drawings, its so...

    can a column in a SW BOM display if the item has an existing drawing...

    can a column in a SW BOM display if the item has an existing drawing... without needing to run a macro first I want to add a column to the existing BOM table we use, this will show if a model or sub assembly referenced by the row has a drawing associated with it. This can be a Boolean or...

    two view - horizontal question

    yup that would work as well. I did the formed view of the model in 1 window, the drawing of the flat pattern in another and spanned both monitors - does the job. I think I will add the ability to view different configurations in the "two view - horizontal" mode as an enhancement request. Fell...

    two view - horizontal question

    That sounds like the closest thing I will be able to do, have the model open in 1 window so I can edit the dimension and have a drawing open in another window with the two views on it. Thanks SW 2014 SP 5.0 x64

    two view - horizontal question

    Thanks for the responses. I figured it couldn't be done, what I really wanted to see was the effect of a change of a dimension would have on the part without having to switch configurations. I have a number of equations and global variables at play, I am not sure the second session will do it...

    two view - horizontal question

    when viewing a part using the two view horizontal active- -The model has 2 configurations, 1 as formed (rolled), 1 as a flat pattern I would like to see the model in the top view in the rolled configuration and the model in the bottom view as a flat pattern, (The flat pattern is not a derived...

    pneumatic routes/piping

    Thanks NL8, We dont do enough to make the ROI short enough, just enough to keep the PITA factor high. If we start getting some more pneumatics in house and take on some more electrical I can see us pushing for E3 Wireworks or similar. SW 2013 SP 1.0 x64

    pneumatic routes/piping

    I am looking for an easier way to put pneumatic tubing and routing into the assemblies, I have the models for all the cylinders, valves and fittings. I know that if we upgrade to SW Premium the routing add-on will do this, lots more $$$$ plus the extra $$$ per year for the subscription service...

    I am with you on this one. It is annoying and I hope there is an answer out there... SW 2011 SP 5.0 x64 Core i7-2600@3.40GHz Quadro 4000 DUAL DISPLAY Windows 7 PRO x64 16 Meg
