    Saving Multibody Crashes Solidworks

    Hello All, I have a multibody with three different bodies. When I try to 'save bodies' it says 'failed to save document' and then crashes solidworks. Very Frustrating. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks for any help.

    Solid Bodies BOM

    I have modeled a part made up of two solid bodies. I have entered said part into an assembly with another part. Now when I make a drawing of the assembly the BOM only recognizes the solid body as a single part. Is there a way that I can have the BOM recognize this as two different parts rather...

    Manually adding parts to BOM

    Recently I can not manually add parts to a Bill of Material. It will let me add in a row for a new part but when I try to double click and type in text for a description, part number, etc. it will not let me type anything in. Has anyone else run into this problem? It is the 2010 version of...

    Changing file location

    When I move a file from my desktop to a network drive solidworks can never locate the part and the only option is to find it myself. This normally woulnd't be a problem but I'm doing a large assembly and I need to move it all to the network. How would I do this so solidworks can find it without...

    Induction Generators

    Hi all, I am trying to fit a turbine for a tidal application. To be honest I really know very little about induction generators and how they work. I'm sure that they are geared to turn up the RPM's to produce optimum power. Does anyone have any web sites I could read that would increase my...

    Open Channel Flow

    I am working on calculating flow from tides in and out of a salt water pond. There are 2 possible channels for the flow to enter and exit. I know roughly the rise and drop of the pond from high tide to low tide to be about 6 feet and I know that the pond is 147 acres. I have calculated flow rate...

    ocean channel flow

    I am trying to figure out what would be the best way to measure flow in an open channel along a coast line. I have searched ultrasonic flow meters and I believe that they will work. However, They are quite expensive and I am not sure that my funding will back it. Is there any other way to...

    Text Size

    Hi all, I am having trouble with altering my text size. When I modify my text size using the dimension style toolbox it remains the same size. So then I try to change it manually in the properties box and that will not change the size either? Does my version have some kind of voodoo spell on it...

    internal circlip rings

    I am trying to find some basic DWG drawings of standard metric internal circlips but I can't seem to find any, or at least free ones. If there are no available drawings is there some specs where I could recreate the standard metric circlips in AutoCAD? Thank you

    Invisible text in AutoCAD 2002

    Hello, I am having trouble using the text in the AutoCad 2002 version. When using the text command, I specify the text window and the text editor window opens. When I try to type text in that window the text is invisible and the only way I can see it is if I highlight it. Any thoughts? Thanks
