    Exploded Views

    Hi, Does anyone know why exploded views don't explode? I have an assembly with all the parts constrained and without any obvious issues but when I try and do an automatic explode, none of the parts actually explode. They just stay in their place. Does anyone know why it does this? Thanks

    Incorrect View

    All sorted :) One of my 'esteemed' colleagues decided in his infinite wisdom to copy an assembly as a part (god only knows why). The net result of this is once this part is buried many levels down in an assembly and the bits that are in the copied assembly are deleted higher up in the assembly...

    Hi Kenat, Thanks for the suggestion. I tried what you suggested and there was no change; I even deleted the configuration and started again but this also didn't work!! It appears as if there is some corruption in the assembly. It looks like the assembly file is not linked to the deleted...

There are a few peculiarities but the biggest one of all is that on different Windows 7 machines they have different peculiarities [surprise] Having the body selected is quite strange....but it does appear to work!! Odd, but if that is what I need to do then so...

    Encountered Problems

    Hi, Can anyone please tell me what problems they have had with SolidWorks. No particular version, although 2006 onwards to the current version would be handy. Have any of the problems with earlier versions been fixed in later releases? Are there any fundamental issues still present with the...

    Speed Advise

    Hi, I am after some advise as to whether I can get any more from SolidEdge. We used to run some old crabby dual core 2.66GHz PCs with 3GB RAM and 256MB grahics cards but have recently upgraded our computers to the following spec: Dell Precision T1500 Intel i5 Quad Core Processor 2.66GHz 6GB...
