Hello,
Can anyone help in finding a small preferably battery powered module that combines a simple switch with an LED light that goes off after a short time period , likely about 3 seconds. This is for a small manual hand press, I'd like for operator to simply have an easy visual indicator to...
Hello,
I often use the assembly mirror feature to quickly add parts symmetrically to a the basic planes. Sometimes these are created as opposite hand versions - sometimes they are just duplicate parts which saves time and resources creating mates. When propagating to the BOM these parts often...
Does anybody know a way to edited the hole call out to display 4 plc diameters next to standard ANSI and METRIC drill sizes in the hole wizard?. I'm always diverting to look up diameters then back to the letter or fractional drill sizes. Would be a great time saver.
I modeled a part some years back -( probably SW 2009 ) It's a fairly simple 2 pc assembly which makes up a machined block with a cavity, a few drill holes and taps. The part was modeled as a whole 1 piece block which served the purpose at the time. I decide to go ahead and split the block into 2...
I copied an Assembly model and drawing from my laptop to my main workstation. For some reason I got " 3dSketch @ plane" annotations showing with planes and no way to select or hide them. They were visible in the drawing as well. I can not think of anything that was switched that would cause...
I would like to show a cylindrical assembly in an exploded view. Think of something similar to a tube of lip balm with a label that fully wraps the whole assembly. Would you show it in a wrapped form in line with the cylindrical axis? or as a flattened view above the assembly showing that it...
I've been having a few crash issues on the Solidworks workstation at work. Our IT guy wants me to use a different log-in for a few weeks to isolate whether the problem is with the log in file or something else. SO no problem...but I want to load in all my config changes from the default install...
I've done search and didn't come across any similar issues. I occasionally get errors using Save to PDF. Most of the issues involve certain views of the drawing being omitted. On one occasion I got a gross error where the section views located in completely different areas of the drawing. In...
I'm looking for the simplest-fastest- cleanest way to make a copy of a part with all references broken from the original, with all features available for subsequent design changes. This is a case where it is more efficient to start from a copy and not need to manage changes in configurations. It...
