Show attribute description buttonĪs a consequence, positioning the information in the way that the user needs to will be much easier now. With SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2018, from the Edit symbol toolbar, the user may show the attribute description rather than the attribute name, what makes easier to identify the function of each one. It might be complicated to remember from the attribute name only, which information relates to.
So far, a symbol in edition mode looked like this: Old symbol edition viewĮach attribute (represented by the texts starting with # character) stands for a specific type of information that will be displayed when used in a project drawing. Now, with 2018 release will be even faster. Show attributes descriptionĬreate or edit symbols in SOLIDWORKS Electrical has always been a quick and easy process. This feature is completely on line, doesn’t need any procedure or icon to run it, so will provide information in real time as circuits are generated / modified.
Visual reference for connected an unconnected pins SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2018 has now the ability to show the connections dots (shown in the previous image in red) only if a real connection between wire and component takes place (selecting the option When connected) When connected option activationįollowing our previous example, we will get a visual reference about the connections established and the ones that are not. These, although hard for the eye to meet, may exist (for instance, wires not getting exactly the to a connection point from a symbol) A connector connected? A connector not really connected Nevertheless, it’s possible that due to some specific cases, items in a drawing may be moved away from its original location, producing the described effect. This allows the user speed up the design process as the mouse pointer moves always from a safe position to another, without the risk of creating gaps between entities in a drawing. SOLIDWORKS Electrical uses a grid system to limit the cursor movement.
Today, I would like to share with you a few, for a lack of a better word, modest enhancements with great potential: Five hidden treasures from SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2018. SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2018 includes a bunch of exciting new features, big projects that just came to reality to help users worldwide, powerful enhancements that will dramatically reduce the amount of time invested in project generation…we will talk about these in due time.
