Electrical Design and Data Management

Skip Empty Data Propagation

Prevent data loss during automated propagation by enabling the new Skip Empty option in propagation rules. When a source value is blank — such as a wire address that has not been assigned — propagation skips that value and leaves the existing destination data untouched, eliminating manual cleanup and protecting valid data across large, complex projects.

Component Mark Assignment Priority

Control which symbol drives the component mark with a new Component Mark Assignment Priority option. Choose between two methods: prioritize by cross-reference relationship, where parent symbols always drive the mark, or by symbol type hierarchy. Whichever method you choose, the designated master symbol drives the component mark consistently across all drawing types eliminating unexpected overrides and reducing manual corrections in complex multi-drawing projects.

Electrical 3D

The following enhancements apply to SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D with a single-user license and a device term license.

Cross-Navigation Between SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Designer and SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D

Jump directly between your 3D assembly and 2D schematics with one click. Select any component in your 3D model, click Go-To, and the correct schematic sheet opens with the symbol in view. Navigation works in both directions, from 3D to schematic and back, eliminating manual searches across large assemblies and multi-sheet drawings
