Hello All! I just had one of my guys at the office here call me over to show this great way of calling up dimension favorites by clicking on the dimension and then using the scroll button, he says our dimension favorites screen came up and we has able to scroll thru them. When I came over and he...

Just got done checking the Dept's setting in SW. The save tessellated box is checked on all of out tubes.

Yeah, that Smarteam is frustrating when trying to track the problems down. Is it SolidWorks or SmarTeam or a combination causing the problems. We have submitted 3 bugs to SmarTeam in the last month alone. Children not linking to Parents, updating of the prints. We've been pretty lucky that our...

Beware the .pdf route, our company has already tried that. IT DOESN'T WORK WELL. Our IT program deleloped a program that when checked drawings into our SmarTeam it also created a .pdf, then the people out on the floor could use a program to access the .pdfs, great all around but the same things...

Ahhhh, too fast to keep up with the replies, our VAR has come up with the same thing your's did, when you view a SW file thru e-drawings the people out on the floor are getting a "view only" file which is a snapshot in time, and when we look at a drawing thru SW in the Eng. Dept. if refreshes...

CorBlimeyLimey, you're one step ahead of me today. We are using WinTerminals out on our shop floor. Don't know the specs on those (top secret IT stuff that the computer Dept doesn't want anyone to know, you know ultra top secret)They are viewing our Solidworks native files with E-drawings.

Sorry, here's the rest of the answer. Sometimes when we release the drawings the they will go into our pdm system just fine, other times we get the missing views and only balloons, not consistant by location or machine, the only thing that is consistant is that anyone using e-drawings on our...

Yep, they show up just fine when we look at them in the office

Hello All! Have a problem with some of our offices. After checking the parts/drawngs/assemblies into our PDM software (SmarTeam) and then when our shopfloor tries to view the drawings thru e-drawings and our companies intra-net, drawings can show up without any of the assemblies visible, only...

Here's my two cents. some of the tips are missing since they only apply to my company. 1) To switch part creation plane from one to another: 1) Select the boss-extrude sketch 2) Right click and highlight "Edit Sketch Plane" 3) Dialog box comes up, select plane you want sketch to...

We are facing the same problems right now. We went with SmarTeam to do the revving and taking care of all the other details. I've talked to several companies that have/are going down the same path. After it was said and done they wished if they could do it over again they would have pushed for a...

Sounds like the same problem that we were having. One of my Engineers has a ATI rage Pro also. Not the same model but the same manufacturer. I had our VAR come down and take a look at it. He went out to SolidWorks home page and under the subscription help they now have a list of what graphics...

Thanks for the tips, scream at you later!

Hello all! I'm new to the area here, my company has been using SW for about a year now and I'm in charge of implementation and keeping everyone in solutions for SW. We (the department and I) were wondering if anyone has any macros written on calculating surface area for stain on a part face...
