On many occasions, designers need to add SOLIDWORKS Toolbox custom parts to their library. Some special items might be downloaded from various websites and due to their repetitive usage for company design applications, the part needs to be saved into the shared SOLIDWORKS Toolbox library. In thi...
Every configuration can have its own list of custom properties. But be aware: if you add the same property to both the file and the configuration, SOLIDWORKS will use the configuration-specific one. See Don’t add a property in both the Custom and Configuration Specific tabs in our other po...
The Configuration Publisher is a SOLIDWORKS tool that filters through configurations using defining properties. On insertion, instead of choosing a configuration’s name, the Configuration Publisher prompts the user to choose parameters that filter which configuration is needed. This is particularly useful...
DownloadParallels for Macand run the installer. You can use thefree trialto try it first. For running SolidWorks on a Mac,we strongly recommend getting Parallels Probecause it gives you much more control over how many resources you your Mac allocates to Parallels which is very important in an...
Even though we can technically open parts and assemblies in the prior release of SOLIDWORKS, we do not have the same capabilities as if we were working in their native version. We will be able to see the model’s material, configurations*, and properties, butthere is no way to edit anyt...
Discover how you can set up a planetary gear assembly in SOLIDWORKS that demonstrates realistic motion of three drive types using gear mates, as well as mates between reference geometry and sketches.
Go to the Configuration Manager tab andright-click on the configuration that you would like to be able to see in eDrawings. If you are using SOLIDWORKS 2018, you will see an option to “Add Large Design Review Mark”. If you are using SOLIDWORKS 2019, this has been renamed to “Add ...
This JT file does not even come close to matching the CAD model name, and so the integration cannot recognize and save it to Teamcenter, without additional configuration. The solution is to add a 2nd JT file map, with a file name pattern, while ...

Its value should be the name of the config in which you wish to count quantities. The macro will only update parts quantities when this configuration is active. When you run the macro, it will iterate through all the parts in the model and add two custom properties. One will contain the...
