rectangle, arc, polygon, ellipse, circle, slot, trim etc helps to create basic two dimensions drawing of the design. It also helps to create 3D sketch in this CAD software.
SOLIDWORKSis known for being able to go back and edit just about anything you create. When there are limitations to the program, we can create an Enhancement Request. However, most of the time we just don’t know how something can be done. This was my case for how to Edit Sketch patte...
When we start Sketching in SolidWorks, there are default setting like snapping, assigning auto relations etc. are assigned by itself. Many users are not aware that this are actually "settings" which can be turned on and off. This video takes you through
