Keep in Sync with Computerized Revision Updates and Share 2D Drawings Shortly

Now that we’re all again in the actual world after a whirlwind journey to Nashville for 3DEXPERIENCE World, we are able to take what we’ve discovered and put it into motion. Hopefully you caught considered one of my classes on 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS, however hopefully you didn’t catch me and my foolish strikes on the dance ground. Although I actually did benefit from the line dancing.

Since we had been all wrapped up at World mid-February you might not know that we additionally introduced the newest replace, R2023x FD01, for 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS.

This spherical we’ve improved the effectivity of the product design course of via extra versatile reloading of elements from the server, enhanced collaboration with the flexibility to share drawings on the 3DSwym group and extra.

Right here’s a breakdown of a few of my new favourite options you’ll be able to dive into within the new replace.

1. Use 3DEXPERIENCE Platform Revisions to Drive SOLIDWORKS Revision Desk Updates– save time and observe revisions extra simply.

For starters, you’ll be able to set your SOLIDWORKS drawing revision tables to robotically replace when adjustments are made to drawing revisions on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. To use this setting, go to the Doc Properties dialogue and choose 3DEXPERIENCE pushed Revision Desk.

This allows you to robotically replace a revision desk in a SOLIDWOKRS drawing when a brand new revision is made on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for the present drawing file.

2. Embody SOLIDWORKS Element Reference Worth – enhance accuracy and collaboration.

You now have the flexibility to incorporate the SOLIDWORKS part reference worth within the object data panel on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

This not solely helps you establish a part’s occasion in an meeting by mapping the part worth, however it may well additionally simply be discovered beneath the Discover Quantity tab within the data panel of an object when utilizing platform purposes similar to Product Construction Explorer and Bookmark Editor so different platform customers can simply discover and use the knowledge.

3. Versatile Reload from Server Choices – open information sooner.

Open your information sooner with the flexibility to decide on a reload possibility. For instance, in case your file consists of references, you’ll be able to select whether or not to reload a particular file with out references, reload references solely or have it reload the whole chosen file with references.

Enhance your workflow effectivity with a extra versatile course of for reloading your elements from the server.

4. Detect Title Duplicates in Drawings When Saving to the Platform – save cupboard space and guarantee you will have the related drawing.

You may allow the Verify File Title Uniqueness characteristic when saving content material to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. This helps cut back duplicates and ensures that you simply at all times have the correct SOLIDWORKS drawings.

5. Share Drawings to 3DSwym – conveniently share data.

Along with 3D fashions, now you can share 2D drawings on the 3DSwym communities. Shortly share drawings proper from inside SOLIDWORKS Related to 3DSwym to realize perception from group members on the drawings. 3DSwym members can then touch upon the drawings and supply suggestions utilizing markups so you’ll be able to shortly achieve worthwhile perception.

6. Enhancements to Work Below Change Motion – observe adjustments higher.

The change motion workflow has been enhanced to make it clear that the mannequin you’re engaged on has a change motion assigned to it so you’ll be able to carry out the required change earlier than saving the mannequin to the platform. You will notice a hardhat icon on the Save button indicating that there’s an lively change motion earlier than you put it aside.

This ensures the whole design historical past is correctly tracked on the platform.

7. Delete Lacking References in One Click on – save time on guide work.

Now you can delete all lacking references in a single click on as an alternative of getting to delete them manually, which might be time consuming and tedious when coping with giant assemblies. Merely choose Delete Lacking References so you’ll be able to shortly save your meeting to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and keep on together with your subsequent activity.

That about sums it up for this spherical. I feel you’ll discover these enhancements will enable you be extra productive in your day-to-day design work. Let me know what you assume within the Feedback part under.
