Search Design Library

Ladies and gentlemen, hello again!My current question, is if there's any way to make a search in the Design Library Toolbox. For example, if I know the DIN or ANSI number of a standard part, why should I search it manually? Is there any "Search" box, so I can locate the desired standard part, quick & easy?Thankz in Advanced Mates! :)See More

Simple add minus sign in the plus tolerance value box when you need both minus and add an extra minus in the minus tolerance value box when you need both plus. ;)

ty Davie, i did it, but the model translates with many broken edges and surfaces. it's wrong at a significant percent. also, the vice versa procedure, with the dwg export, results the same at GS. ty though..

I know you can convert the GS to autocad (.dwg) and then thw autocad file to SW, not sure if there is a faster way or if you can reverse it thou.

Also, the EPDM program of Solidworks, offers that ability

Saitakis Emmanuel replied to Thomas Blake's discussion 'BOM idea input and ERP link'

I think that in the Properties of each part (not file-->properties, but RightMouseButton-->properties within solidworks) you can manage that, by selecting to show on a BOM or not.
