Hi All,
A couple issues have been identified with the new drawings course that I wanted to make sure you were all aware of.
#1: The file set for the ANSI version of the book as been updated on solidworks.com as of today (12/27/18). The files for Exercise 26 (BOM Exercise) in the original file set were already completed, so that has been corrected in the new file set that is available for download.
#2: A new SPR has been identified that is affecting Lesson 4. SPR 1109122 is preventing custom properties associated with a sheet format to be applied to the drawing document. Therefore, the case study at the end of lesson 4 where you test this behavior will not work. Also, the SWFormatSize property, which is discussed at the beginning of the lesson will not appear for new drawings, so you may want to skip that paragraph until the SPR is addressed.
#3: In Exercise 29 (following Lesson 10), step 16 should state "For Show folders for, select Revision Table Templates." Currently the text and image refer to BOM Templates rather than Revision Table Templates.
#4: In the ISO version, Lesson 6, page 203, step 2 states to select the A3 Drawing template, but the image shows a B-Size Drawing template. A3 Drawing is the correct template to use in this version of the manual.
I've also updated the training notice in the SW Knowledge Base with this information (Solution ID S-069380).
If you run into any additional software of content issues with the new material, be sure to let us know by filing an SR so we can track them appropriately. If there are simple grammar or spelling errors, you can also let me know by sending over an email to rebekah.haag@3ds.com or contacting me through my forum profile.
Thanks!
