Hi everybody
I have to model a complicate swept from a 3d sketch. This part is in revision stage, so it probably will have a lot of changes. My 3d sketch is now full of dimension defining the poins from the origin, but is hard to my to modify because there are so may dimensions (I really get...
Hi everybody! I have a question about Drawings... Is there a way to avoid that people can access to "edit Sheet Format"? Some of my coworkers use a template that I create, but for some reason, the think that is a better idea to override my links with "hard" data (I mean, Instead...
Hi everybody!
I have a kind of problem here. I realize that when somebody print my drawings in other printer, with other settings, no matter if the page setup is set to print in landscape, SW2006 SP3.1 always print in portrait. I have to open every drawing, open the page setup, click in OK...
Hi. I hope that somebody can help me!
I was trying to send some drawings by email, but I notice that some of mi files are more than 8 mb size, while others are only 500 KB or less. I discovery that my templates have an 8 mb size, but I don't know why is this. I erase everything in the...
This is just in case that somebody have this problem.
We use Dell workstations with nVidia Quadro4 900 and a Novell network. We use to have a problem when starting solidworks: It just freeze in the startup window and never loads. Whe had to unplug the LAN cable, start solidworws, and plug...
Hi, I have a part that have a lot of holes in it. For design questions, I have to add an extrude feature in this face, so my sketch include the holes as well as the form of the extrude (Yes, I know there are better ways to do this, but this was the best way in this case). I made my drawing and...
HI, I have a problem in my SW 2005 SP 0.1. When I put a hole callout in a drawing it looks right, but when I try to add some tolerances (a fit for a dowel pin, for example) the symbol of the depth and the fit, overrides. I mean, I have the (for example) H7 just in the same place that the...

Is there a way to ignore collisions in a simulation? I want to see the movement in an assembly that have a lot of interfering parts (it was imported from other CAD, and it is so hard to try to fix it). I only need to see the motion along the full path and the simulation always stop at the...
Hi everybody... this is a macro question... I wrote a small macro that get the comercial parts of our library and copy all them in a single folder where the assembly is located. This allow me to copy a cd just by dragging the main folder, instead of save ALL references in the assembly (all my...
Well, Here I go again. I don't know if there is just me, or there is a lot of "bugs"? or things missed in SW2005...
Ok, I need to change the text of the size column in a hole table, but I noticed that I can add some variables, delete some others, but not all. I want to leave only the thread...
Exists???? Some of my components show the (-) sign, and as I understand, it means that they are not fully constrained, but I try to drag it to know wich is the constraint that is miss and they just don't move anyway... so, I don't know why is that symbol shown... THnks

Well, may be this has been asked before, but because the search engine does not work, here I go: Is there a way to keep the visibility (hide show) options between configurations? I want to hide or show a component in one config. and keep that state for ALL the rest of the configurations, in...
Hi. I want to know if it is possible to control a move/Copy Feature in a part with a Design Table. I mean, I know I can supress the feature, but I want to control the distance in, said X, only with one move/copy feature and values in the design table, instead add a lot of features and supress...
Hi, Is there a way to have only one title block for many templates? We have almost 10 drawing templates, and when I want to change a propertie or something in the title block, I have to change every template. That is very hard, because of the number of templates, and sometimes the changes are...
Hi. It is possible to add a tolerance in a counterbore or countersink hole callout? I need to make a counterbore hole, but with tolerances, and I don't know if this is even possible.
THank You

Hi. I have been using a lot of part patterns in my assemblies, And I was wondering if is better to use the patterns than many instances of a part, in order to get a "ligther" assembly and to get more performance in my workstation... I mean, instead of use two fasteners, I put only one, and I...
Hi Again. Is there any way to show the anotations of only one or two parts in an assembly? THis is because when I turn onthe "show feature dimesion" option, I get the dimension of all the parts, and it's so hard to finde the one that I need. (i'ts a large assembly)
Thank you

Hi. I have a rectangular plate with Four parts that must be placed in the corners of the plate. Actually I made four instances of that part and add mates to the plate, but I was wondering if there is any way to make a linear pattern of this parts along the edges of my plate and use the sketch...
