Hi All,
I hope nobody finds this post too annoying, but I am posting to seeif others feel the same.
I was really looking forward to the slot feature in SW 2009 when Ifirst heard about it, truth is I never use it because:
- you can't make one end large then the other end.
-you can't select a point in the slot to add a relation tosomething else like make it horizontal or somthing like that.
-when you try to select something on the slot the whole slot isautomatically selected.
I mainly just work with sheetmetal so I would have used the slotfeature alot for bolt slots and or even to make a flat bar.
I never use it because if i want to make one end of the slot or theflat bar larger or smaller then i have to delete it and make a slotthe old way and if I do then my mates and any references that I hadto it are all broken.
Please post your opinions.SolidworksSketching
