    Solidworks motion 2010

    I had the same problem. Its not realy clear for me still.. i.e. if you ckeck this link (SW product matrix): http://www.solidworks.com/sw/mechanical-design-software-matrix.htm and look under the tab 'analysis products', you get the impression that SW premium should be enough to have full...

    Selected Assemblies aren't Highlighting

    Maybe a save as on the assembly would do it. There arent many options in e-drawings so my guess is its the file who's causing the trouble. Im not sure if e-drawings imports any options from the assembly. If so, the difference could lie in SW options (template)

    Populating a Vault - Generic File Names

    You need an external macro program Im afraid. You can try microsoft word macro recorder, although Im not sure thats gonna work. I use Macroscheduler, a very "solid" program. It actually has pixel recognition build into it. It is a hard way for the non macro-ers. But building macro's is...

    configurations and file management

    If you use "save as", the file decreases dramaticly in size. You can repeat this by opening the "saved as" file and use "save as" again. You can do this until the file doesnt decreasing anymore. This way, I turned a 80 Mb file into a 1.4 Mb file, and it still works fine. I dont know for sure its...

    Populating a Vault - Generic File Names

    You can setup a macro - renaming all the files for ya. However, if you havent worked with macro's in the past, it may take as long as manual renaming..

    Converting a UG file

    Did you try e-drawings or dwg viewer? There are alot of free viewers on the web. I suggest you try some. Also, maybe it works when you change the extension to, lets say, dwg or dxf (xxxx.dwg) GL Let me know how it goes Regards ZillionM

    floworks ERROR: Not enough memory to continue the calculation

    Textures disappearing in assemblies

    You are using 2007 right? What I could think of is edit the texture in the Render manager tab. Or is it dissapearing there as well? I recall that I had those issues once or twice with 2007. I guess it costs some more time anyway. Issues are resolved in 2008 though. greetz ZillionM

    This is what a created COSMOSWORKS report says in a note: 'Do not base your design decisions solely on the data presented in this report. Use this information in conjunction with experimental data and practical experience. Field testing is mandatory to validate your final design. COSMOSWorks...
