Sets the menu language to English when you specify another language during installation, and you set the regional options in the Windows Control Panel to that language. Exit and restart SOLIDWORKS for this change to take effect. Use English language feature and file names ...
The SOLIDWORKS Feature Tree is where we organize our model. It helps us extract information, show dependencies, filter what is shown on screen and more. Watch the video below to learn how we change the SOLIDWORKS Feature Tree display in both parts and assemblies to make ourselves more productiv...
SOLIDWORKS 2019 introduced a new tool called 3D Texture. Explore what this tool allows us to do, when it may be applicable, and where to find it.
you can select the resolution (faceting) for your model (High, Medium, Low and Custom) and check that your units are correct. The “High” setting will produce a large file size. Autodesk Inventor allows you to save both individual parts and assemblies in STL format, at all design levels...
To open the properties palettes goto tools-palettes-properties or ctrl+1. There is also on the menu bar Format->Units... hover over the insertion scale drop down box for the description, you can change the scale a block is inserted in without changing the block ...
I have tried to open the drawing and press the references button to link it to the assembly, but this does not work, I get a message about not being able to change form part to assembly type. It seems to be an awful waste of time for me to have to start and create a new drawing...
Now it’s time to evaluate the enclosure prototypes and change the 3D model as necessary. It will almost always take several prototype iterations to get the enclosure design just right.Although 3D computer models allow you to visualize the enclosure, nothing compares to holding a real prototype ...
Notes specific to a feature or the print can be referenced in the part drawing using triangular flags with the appropriate note number.3. Check your scale and units. Ensure that the drawings fit on the page and that the dimensions will be clearly seen in each view. If you plan on ...
Yes, "SW-Created Date" uses the long date format specified in regional settings, but it also inserts the time of day. I could change my computer's long date format to MM/DD/YY but then anyone who uses my drawing templates would have to do the same, which is undesirable. ...
But if you print the texture on a VERTICAL face, your printer has a lot more lines to render the image, and those lines have to change a lot less, leading to a 'smoother' look: This difference is very noticeable in FDM, not so much in smoother technologies like Polyjet, P3/DLP or...
