    New Space Pilot Pro

    Being able to customize it really speeds things up for me, and not just in SolidWorks. Having both monitors available, and photo's open, along with e-mail, it doesn't take long to get to where it's just not the same without the 3D controller. I have several "generic" functions pgm'd into my...

    Space Navigators for $37

    I can understand how it might be seen as a decrease in efficiency at first. I guess it would just depend on the modeling techniques and the operator. Personally, I started with the spaceball 5000 about 9 yrs ago. I got used to it's programmable buttons after about 3 or 4 days. Now, I'm using...

    Short-cut menu won't re-size

    Solution found : I moved the SW application window onto my second monitor. Then opened a new assembly document. Used the "S" key to bring up the short-cut toolbar... RMB to "customize", and it will let me "resize".

    Short-cut menu won't re-size

    Either way you look at it, it's still much faster than having to navigate "all the way across the page" to get the correct tool - thanks anyway for the responses

    Short-cut menu won't re-size

    Correct, the "s" short-cut menu will not let me drag it-- any direction, to re-size.

    Short-cut menu won't re-size

    Does anyone know of a way to manually force the short-cut menu window to re-size? Registry edit somewhere ? When I customize my short-cut menus, -(part or assembly)- it will not let me drag it left or right to re-size. It only continues to grow vertically. I just upgraded to sp 3.0 hoping for...

    Compressing Solidworks files

    Have you tried using the "Delete Body" feature ? In my experience, it reduces the file size nearly half.

    SolidWorks 2008 to 2007

    How about an enhancement request for this forum - A scrolling list of the most common questions, just like the "WHITE PAPERS" list. This could minimize some pain and suffering.

    Almost Friday. I installed 2008x32 SP 0.1 on my home machine -Dell 690, ATI V3400, and Vista ultimate x32. The command manager (when activated), will appear next to the cursor, as a part is being created. At work,I installed 2008 x64 SP 0.1 on XP x64, ATI V7100. When the command manager is...

    A529-50 or A992-50 for bending

    I want to bend some I-beams_(cold), and these are the two types of material I have to choose from. Can someone point me in the right direction for information on which material will be able to take the abuse the best without "cracking"?

    Is It True You must Be on Subscription/Maintenance to Install Updates

    Just "renewed" mine, and it is true. No subscription, no updates or upgrades. Proof that there's nothing a little money won't solve.

    Sw2007 SP0 stability

    I've been enjoying mine for about 2 weeks now and the only glitch so far has been with the drawings. I printed out a couple of sheets and the dimension lines were there, but the actual dimension value wouldn't print out until I assigned them to a layer. Maybe a setting I missed somewhere, but I...

    Spaceball settings?

    Mine kept re-setting themselves until I created my own "new commands" then did a "save as" for the Solidworks configuration.
