So, I think I'm a little closer to getting what I want. I was able to show the annotations and edit the hole note.
Do I need to edit each hole note for every part?
Also, the hole callout format that I have in my .hol file works for tapped holes, but for C-Bore holes, the callout needs to be...
Hello,
I have browsed through all the information on setting up custom .hol files for Pro/E and finally got it setup like I like it - I think.
My problem is that it seems that the hole note is stored in the feature so holes created with the original .hol file are not updated. I would have to...
I would like to swap the keys used to pan (Shift) and zoom (Ctrl). Is that possible to do through possible a config setting? I still want to keep the system functions of the keys like multiple select using the control key.
As a long time user of Solidworks that is now using Solidworks and...
Here is the code with the first few lines. The Set part = activedoc line does that, right?
Private Sub CommandButton15_Click()
Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc
'Close
If CheckBox4 = True Then
swApp.CloseDoc sFileTitle
Else
End If
End Sub
Hello,
I am working on a macro with some common commands that i can check off and press a button and it applies all the commands with a check. One command I am having trouble with is the close current document. I have tried a couple of different variations that I found by searching, but the...
Since your part is a scan, the aorta is probably made up of more that a couple of surfaces, so this may not work. But, I was suggesting that you select the surface(s) that make up the aorta, and use the knit surface feature to create a 0 offset surface of the outer aorta walls. There should be...
I would also try to do a knit surface on the aorta, and try to unitrim or extend the surface to fill in the holes where the arteries branched off. Then just do a cut with surface.
Well, I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one having this frustrating problem. We have two logos on one of our drawing formats, one never dissipates and the other one comes and goes. Maybe it's the way I'm putting it in....Insert, Picture, select the image.
I too have dealt with a lot of die cast and injection molded part drawings, and sometimes the best way to deal with them are to create extra features or sketches that you can reference in the drawing.

So, what I am seeing, is that it is not possible to have an automatic equal diameter relation, or similar automatically added while sketching. Only some of the relations like horizontal and tangent can be automatically added. This seems like a big weak spot in the SW sketcher tat could stand...
I have been trying to find a way how to do this for a while now. If anyone has used Pro/E before, they know that they can draw two circles as close to horizontal as possible and a horizontal constraint will be automatically added. The same is true for symmetric, equal, and many others. Does...
I once used "resource hacker" to change the splash screen on Photoshop. I had to edit a .dll in the Photoshop directory and replace an image. Maybe it would be the same process for SolidWorks? The site for the program is, http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/. I'm sure it could be done, but...
Robbo,
I think what you are trying to do can be achieved by offsetting the trim plane and the triad to the point that you want the bending to start.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=919f9138-df8c-466f-80d1-5b5805e06a99&file=Flex-ENG.bmp
If you click the "Make drawing from part/assembly" button on the topmost toolbar, SolidWorks will search first if there is a drawing with the same name as the open part/assembly. If none exist, it will create a new one. This should solve what you are trying to do without any macros.
If I understand your question correctly, all you have to do is change the color of the part in the assembly. The color will not be associated with the actual part file, but for that assembly, you will have the unique colors.
I have used the custom filter at the top of the feature tree in an assembly to see all of the instances in an assembly. It's more of a quick and dirty way instead of creating a BOM.
