1572 - Who’s Driving Your SOLIDWORKS File Management and References?

Imagine being taken advantage of consistently and never even knowing it's happening. Well, it doesn't have to be that way with a better understanding of file management and refs. It's by no means a fun topic, but Tom and Joe’s presentation will be as exciting as running for the front row of a 3DEXPERIENCE morning session! The sessions will focus on:

  • How files are linked (referenced) in SOLIDWORKS. Yes, they are linked
  • How SOLIDWORKS determines where to find files. You do have options
  • The order SOLIDWORKS searches for the files. Yes, SOLIDWORKS really does listen
  • How to change file references with minimal effort. And yes, remember, SOLIDWORKS does take direction
  • The pros and cons of different file naming conventions. What’s your naming convention?
  • The pros and cons of allowing duplicate file names in your organization. Yes, you'll probably use the wrong file at the most inconvenient time
  • Using Pack & Go or Copy Tree, where are you going? Doesn’t really matter… you’re ready.​​​​​​​
