I usually just email someone a shortcut to the files I want them to look at on the server. In our case, it makes no difference if the end reciever has the full SWX of just viewer, write access or read only. Everyone can see the same files, and none of those files exist anywhere else unless...
Mine usually works that way also, although just a few weeks ago I had a drawing that would randomly display 'SW3' or 'SW7' as the drawing file name. Cntrl Q would temporarily fix it, but I would always notice that at some point the diplayed file name would revert to 'SW#' were '#' seemed to be...
Anyone remember the name of the company that had various diameter worm gear stock that used industry standard bolts as the worm? I seem to remember the second half of their name was 'Dynamics' as in "Motion Dynamics" or something like that. They used to have ads in 'Machine Design' and 'Design...
I don't understand why 'woolly' should start a new thread? He only stated that he tried someones' suggestion and it didn't work. I'm trying to watch this thread so I may find a solution to the same problem.
Am I missing something here?
Not trying to offend anyone, just trying to figure out the...
Some of the same issues here, also using an HP 750C+.
Has anyone hade problems with shaded views being 'squished' in the verticle direction. I get this whenever 'high quality' is checked, whether going to the printer or to .pdf.
Still using SW2004 sp5 for now.
Using version 6.14.10.4546. Hasn't worked since last Friday.
Opened SolidWorks this morning, real view is working again. Haven't changed anything to fix it.
I shut down every night before going home, restart every morning.
Who knows.
I've been using 'real view' for a while, but all of a sudden the icon is greyed out. I have not changed drivers or updated SolidWorks in any way. I can assign materials to a component but now the real view radio button is checked but greyed out. Even view/diplay/Realview Graphics is greyed...
When you 'save as' a part file, you can choose to convert only the exterior faces of your assembly. You could then take the new part file you've create and save it as an iges or step if your customer has some other cad package.
Before you send it out, open it yourself to see if this is the...
These are models of components used in the the US First robotics competition, but there are some usefull models for other stuff too.

Finally finished the first image. Took about 2.5 hours. Looks really good though.
Anti aliasing was set to high, no depth settings,no indirect illumination. Shadow settings were set to default. How will the memory management settings affect performance?
Don't know if I have something wrong, but rendering in PW R2 takes many times longer than in earlier versions of PW. I've heard the new version is slower, but I have to wonder if there is just something wrong with what I'm doing. I'm waiting for a rendering now that has been running for 1-1/2...
Are you asking for advice on how to model this or on how to create a detail? We cut spheres on a daily basis. For the detail drawings we specify each hole y degrees down from north pole, and x degrees along the equator from a datum plane. The origin of the part is usually the center of the...
Our machine shop uses Camworks for our parts designed in SolidWorks. When countersink or counterbored features are put in using the hole wizard, CamWorks does not automatically recognize the csink or cbore portion. If the same feature is put in as a cut extrude vs. cut revolve, then everything...
