Nice tips! I've been using Solidworks for 7 years and I learn a couple of things from your tips.

A never ending discussion LOL.
I dig smart part numbers. I worked for the Suzuki, Honda, & Nissan factories. They used smart part numbers & it works. The part number IS the BOM. The part number tells you everything about that part; what it is, what it fits, what its made of, what revision it is, etc.
Have the part in hand, you can guess pretty darn close what the part number is. See the part number, you know exactly what the part is (see above).
All these factories have huge part warehouses, arranged by part number. So you can walk into the warehouse & go exactly where the part box is, no map required.
Cheers, Devon

I've talked about this topic frequently enough. I guess I never got around to making my own article about this. Yes, to quote myself, "Smart numbers are dumb."

He knows your face, so first one might be harder. Even employees aren't going to be able to breach his security. I've heard that they've hired Pinkerton Security to bounce. ;)

I'm not sure which challenge I should take, Mike. The "you won't get past the door" one or the CSWE one. Hmm...

Jeff,

I can go ahead and confirm that your press credentials won't get you past the door at the event! However if you'd like I can set you up with the necessary credits to take and pass the CSWE before SWW arrives! You have just under 2 months which should be easy for you!

Awesome post, interesting story. We used SIP roof panels when we designed our home addition, finding a contractor with SIP experience was a challenge.

The convert task does not have to be fully automatic. If you wish you could have it ask you for the pdf's file name and location.

Workgroup is severely limited when it comes to revisoning. It incorrectly calls versions "revisions", and as you noted, it ends up rolling a revision if you are using it that way. Working copy is dangerous in my opinion, and I don't use it. I use Workgroup solely as a versioning tool and manually add revisions to the versions that are to be released (pretty much the way EPDM works).

EPDM does versioning/revisioning right - you can assign a revision label to a version that is ready to be released.

Hi, is it true that solidworks can only handle approx 100,000 points of cloud data?

Thanks Jeff
You managed to make sense of my ramblings!

Your assumptions are correct a diet of Vegemite is still compulsory for all young (& old) Aussie kids!

Good post Jeff!

Wonder why Josh only got 21 crayons in his mouth. The sell them 128/box now days, 21 is a little disappointing, just say'in.

I know I'm WAY late on this one, but if you find anything out to help, a color scheme, etc... please report back. Some sort of config file to alter those troublesome colors based on which TYPE of color vision deficiency would be KILLER. Thanks for speaking up!

Couldn't have given us a different angle on that third pic?

Re: SolidWorks 2012 – My Favorites

Mooppoom — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 23:39:58 -0000

Pfffff. BS. Simple added functionality that should have been there long ago should not impress you so much. This is the same kind of scraps they throw at us whenever they release an entire new version. It's always so lackluster with this company. What are they waiting for to actually make some serious improvements? Woof.
