Macro Downloads
The Macros below are posted without warranty and are only posted to improve your productivity with SolidWorks.
This macro adds a revion to the revblock and asks for the information to add to it. |
|
This macro checks the current selected group of items for balloons, and then
changes the selected ones to underline, tight fit & whatever text the user inputs. While in SolidWorks, it remembers this value for the next time around. This macro will change any balloon texts, however it wasn't until 2001+, SP3.0 that SW allowed stacked balloons to have different properties, so the functionality is somewhat limited in earlier versions. |
|
Centermarks all circles found in a specific drawing view. REQUIRES DRAWING VIEW TO BE SELECTED FIRST, AND FACE ALSO TO BE SELECTED (SECOND) |
|
Traverses one level deep into assembly and fixes each component |
|
Gives a message box telling the type of object selected. Could be used for debugging or added to an existing project for application |
|
This macro gets the bounding box dimensions for the config specific model and adds a small amount to it. This amount can be changed by modifying the "AddFactor" value below. It checks to make sure you have a proper document open. It checks & utilizes the user units. It will add 3 separate properties or combine them all into one property. It will optionally draw a 3D sketch for you. |
|
This macro shows and hides the Feature Manager Tree |
|
Creates a 3D sketch point at the Center of Gravity of a part |
|
The macros in this zip file will automaticly create either a concentric, coincident or parrallel mate |
|
This macro gets the mass for the config specific model in the pre-selected drawing view. It also puts the selected value in the clipboard. If a block that contains a "weight" tag name is also selected, it will put the selected value in that note. It checks for no drawing, lightweight, etc. |
|
This macro will loop through each of the configurations in the current file, and output a list of the config names along with the path name & filename. This info is appended to a common text file, which can then be imported into an Access table, or whatever. |
|
| Estimator.swp 4 | This macro will estimate the pirce and cuts of a SolidWorks part foe cost of Manufacturing |
Macro sets textwidth for selected texts. This is useful for all texts which should perform a automatic word wrap, for there is no way in SolidWorks itself to enter a text with a specific width which will automatically word wrap. ATTENTION: the annotation will lose "Use document font" property |
|
This macro resets the lighting to what was the default in 2001 Plus |
|
Designed to automate the process of creating strait Piping by simply selecting Schedule and Nominal size, and entering a length. Use at your own risk I will not be responsible for any adverse affects this may have. (Possible loss of every thing you have ever worked on) =^). Seriously though I will not be held responsible. All units are entered and shown in inches |
