Do you use the touch interface? If you do, 2 questions, what hardware (screen and stylus) and what type of design do you do? It seems touch is most accessible on small devices, but it's only really practical on large (expensive) devices. Do you actually use the interface (icons, menus) with touch, or just sketching, editing, graphical stuff?

I've N-E-V-E-R clicked the "don't show this again" box forany dialog, yet I'm constantly opening files which have dismissedmessages (especially the "different units/resolved" one lately). This is supposed to be a SYSTEM OPTION. Why is it attaching itselfto files?SolidworksUser Interface

Hi, everyone. I just want to gather a little input from you. Really simple question: If you use Mouse Gestures, do you use 4 gestures or 8 gestures? Full disclosure: my hypothesis is that most people use 8 gestures.

I use chamfer all the time and fillet only occassionally. Is there a way to set the icon for fillet/chamfer to default tochamfer instead of fillet? A minor annoyance, but would save a click or two times thousands ofchamfers over the course of a year. Thanks.SolidworksUser Interface

I use Solidworks 2018 SP5 and I moved from windows 7 to windows 10. I have a problem with the size of the dots and of the snaps. They are too small. Is it possible to enlarge them ?

mouse gestures should be a drag and drop feature. Like the customize feature for the "S" key. If the customize dialogue box opened and the mouse gesture opened then you could drag and drop the feature on to the mouse gesture circle. You would select the environment to modify the gesture circle.

Has anyone seen this shortcut menu before? It appeared one day and I can't figure out how to make it go away. I already tried resetting my settings back to default. No dice.

I guess it's time to consolidate my whining so I don't poison the forum Add your experience. Teach me how to use SolidWorks. Hopefully I'll learn something and help other learn something. Also help SolidWorks to be more user friendly.

In the new forums, it is no longer possible to jump to the last page of a posting, which is particularly inconvenient with popular postings like ‌. Please add a button for this. SolidworksUser Interface
