    Modify tilde?

    I would like to modify the arrow style so that the tilde (actually it resembles a front slash in SW) is perpendicular to the leader. This is the way our company shows the location of a stamp on a drawing.

    Feature manager organization

    It is only within an assembly that I want the part or sub-assembly to be sorted. In the past, I have dragged and dropped the part, sub-assembly, or folder to achieve the desired order.

    Increased Drawing Speed

    I talked recently with our VAR. They suggested updating DirectX. Afterwards, we saw a significant speed increase in working with drawings. DirectX 9.0b improves the graphics, security, and performance of your operating system. Download and install this update for your Windows 98, Windows ME...

    Real View

    We experienced a similiar problem last week. It turned out to be something gone bad in the personal profile. I could logon my coworks computer and RealView would work. The computer guys fixed the problem by deleting his profile and creating a new one. I hope this helps. Jason

    Projected view problem??

    We were able to fix the problem. I was able to logon to my co-workers computer and solidworks worked. Our computer guys concluded that his personal profile had somehow changed. They erased his profile and created a new one. This fixed the problem. Thanks everyone, Jason
