I am wondering if there is any documantation out there thatlays down the logic behind the workings of different features andmodeling methods in Solidworks.
In the past I have strugled a few times trying to get stuff towork, or I'll model something one way but it will crash SW etc.Then I will have a brain wave and figure out the logic behind theway the SW expected something to be used and many or all the issuesdissapear.
I can read a textbook, or go through tutorials that tell me how tomodel something but unless I understand why I need to do it, itdoesn't usually stick.
I think that if SW would publish outlines of the way thingsinteract, it would go a long way for users to avoid modelingtechniques that SW was not intended to do. Not that I am againstthinking outside the box but if there is no difference to the endproduct I would prefer the method that is the most stable.
Is there anything out there like this?SolidworksGeneral
