    Conditional Formating - 2 conditions

    I am trying to find some help on setting up a conditional formating that has 2 conditions that are true. The problem I am having is that I need certain cells to highlight per month (equal or greater than) and the other condition is the selection value that ultimately determines the color...

    Independent API Programmers

    I am curious if there are any other Solidworks API programmers other than CAD Sharp that would consider writing us a small app or macro? Scott Baugh, CSWP [pc2] CAD Systems Manager Dapco, INC www.dapcoinc.com faq731-376

    How to Close a Design Table in VBA?

    I know I have done this before and I am fairly certain it stupidly simple, but I can't remember or find in on the web. I have a button on my design table and I just want to close the design table when I click. what the VBA code to do that? Scott Baugh, CSWP [pc2] CAD Systems Manager Evapar...

    Sectioning

    I have been around for a while so I like my drawings to be up to ANSI standard, but I am a little confused about how the software is creating this section view. I don't think that this is a proper section line, but the software allows it to occur. So I am looking for some technical advice as to...

    Recent files in TM won't show anything New

    So my Excel no longer recognizes anything that I have opened recently in the task manager. Only the items I have pinned and the last 4 open docs, which are actually not the last 4 docs I opened. About a month ago I had this same issue and I had to find and remove the correct jump list. It's...

    VBA Automation tools

    I have been looking at the www.automateexcel.com to help me automate the creation of my coding. I am curious if there is any other software that compares to Automate Excel and does anyone have a suggestion or comments about this add-in? Scott Baugh, CSWP [pc2] CAD Systems Manager Evapar...

    Solidworks Being Phased out?

    This is sort of a poll. Reasons: 1) Since "Solidworks World" has been renamed to "3D Experience World". (Which Sounds totally stupid IMO.) 2) Draftsight the free 2D software that is going to no longer to be free at the end of this year and all older versions will cease to work. How many people...

    Do you turn in SW Enhancement Requests or Vote for Enhancements?

    How many of you actually turn in Enhancement Requests? I personally turn in about 1 or 2 every few weeks, sometimes months. Today I turned in two. The one that is important to me would give us the ability to have a system option that allows us to set a constraint for a slot mate. I believe in...

    Selecting faces for mates, yields no onscreen menu results

    I tried asking this at the SW forums and no one bother to reply, so maybe someone here has seen this? Sometimes while I am working in my assemblies and I am trying to mate components together I find that the mate's options in the on-screen menu does not appear. It seems to happen more often...

    What's Worse

    What's Worse, a 16,500 parts in a single assembly and all the parts are a single surface body, or a part with 16,500 surfaces? IMO, they both are. I have an engine STEP file that I can import either way, but no matter what its a nasty file. Scott Baugh, CSWP [pc2] CAD Systems Manager...

    Design Tables and VBA code

    So when did Solidworks Design Tables stop allowing VBA code within the Design Table? Years ago I used to be able to write full programs within SW Design Tables and now after building my new Toolbox files the Design Tables always removes the VBA code after I close the Design table in the part...

    2017 SP2 Bug - PDM Preview/Edrawings

    I moved to 2017 SP2 at the beginning of the week, because it fixed a few PDM problems we were having... turns out I have a new problem now. I found a problem with our Edrawings and our PDM preview. All layers within a drawing show up in the Windows Explorer Preview and in Edrawings. I did manage...

    Imported 3D Scan data to model data (plant layout)

    Does anyone have any experience with getting a plant layout from Revit into SW? We are working with a potential customer, but to get our machine into their plant is going to require them to move some machines out of the way just to get ours into the open space they currently have. They are going...

    Proper Weld Symbol to use

    I am having trouble trying to figure out what type of weld symbol to use when there is a decent gap (.188") that has to be filled with weld. Below is an image of the part that I need to have welded. Its a corner of two sheet metal edge flanges. My first thought is to use a Flange corner weld...

    2016 UI - They actually listened to us

    I know some of you love the new UI in 2016, but I am one that just cannot stand to work in that environment. At SWW 2016 they announced (as I watched over the live streaming connection instead of actually being there [sadeyes]) that in 2016 SP3 they are going to offer a color icon version of the...
