I get into a lot of situations where a customer supplies mewith either a step or iges of a complex 3-D part (generally a thinpart - think thermoforming or compression molding) - usually just asurface part, no thickness. To go through my process of designing components to mold or cutthis part, I invariably have to extract either 2d or 3d sketchesfrom these parts. Most times, I cannot simply select tangency or loop - there aresimply too many minute variations and gaps around this geometry, soI
Dear All, Is there any way to read the reference model name of a drawing view with instance number. So far I have been able to read the name of selected selected Drawing view and its reference model path. But could not get its instance number Set swView = swSelMgr.GetSelectedObject6(1, -1) Debug.Print " Drawing view = " + swView.Name Debug.Print " Referenced model name = " & swView.GetReferencedModelName I know, Drawing view instance number will be same as model instance number. But it is not a

I am currently running SW2020 SP5.0 and all of my macros have always worked fine. Recently we started receiving files from customers in SW2021 and so I installed SW2021 SP5.1 as a second totally separate installation as to not effect our shared toolbox and other files. Now since this time, none of my macros work in the older version, only in the new version. Has anyone had this problem and how do I fix it?
I was wondering if anyone had any sample code to get mestarted with this. I have a mate created. I want to write some codethat will select a mate, this I already have, edit it, clear theselection, then give it two new mating entities. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, I need the initials of the current user of Solidworks in a macro. The initial is the same as the one that can be found in the PDM when a user made a file. But I do not need the initials of the person that made the file, but of the current user in SW. So here the SSU is the initial of the file in pdm, but my initials are RDV. (the code will change the old initials with the new initials in the summary information, I know how to do that but I cannot get the user initials.
I am attempting to create this part: The planes are all evenly spaced at 2 inches apart. I was given these sketches of the faces. What I did was to first create my 5 planes. I then used the midpoint line tool to create the line to the proper dimensions.
Hi, explaining this will get confusing, so refer to the picture. In my BOM, the column description says "SW configuration name, (configuration name). How do I get rid of this redundancy/change what the template column says for all documents? SolidworksDrawings And Detailing

I was just thinking (as I was working) - it would be really nice if SW would make an 'intuitive mate replacement' command. I have a table with a bunch of mounting holes and components mounted; but I wanted to redraw the table model (make it a bit cleaner and change some features; and editing what was there wasn't the easiest solution). At days end I put my new table into my assembly and I want to swap it with my old one;
