I’m working in an assembly with just over 1300 parts and most of them are not in sub-assemblies, which means my Feature Manager is gets pretty long and messy looking.
Now I usually will put things in folders, group things together and eventually end up with a pretty organized structure that looks good in a BOM also.
But here’s the dilemma. It stinks having to sort this each time and remember if M comes before N, so I’m thinking it would nice to have a SolidWorks OCD Option. Something to automatically sort the Feature Manager by it’s partnumber or description or whatever.
Sound nice? If you think so, consider submitting an Enhancement Request or letting me know if I’ve missed something. I’ve logged one under “Ability to Sort Feature Manager Tree by Part Number or Description.”
Don’t you just love the magnificent spectacle of an exploded assembly in SolidWorks? It’s like everything in the world has been revealed and facial hair has become a thing of the past. And let me tell ya, when you’re exploding stuff you want as little facial hair as possible cause that’s just gonna distract aerodynamics and there’s the whole grooming thing.
Boy, I tell ya. The big gaming systems like the Xbox 360 amd Nintendo Wii come out and the kids go crazy with tearing things apart and making mods.
