Did everyone in BMW started using SWAMP yet?
I wonder how they like the new update.

Frederick_Law

API settings may not correspond to registry setting. One or the other may not get updated when those settings changed. Some registry settings got moved to different subkey in different years. Some keys with "default" value may not show up in registry. Registry keys is first build and set A...

People are too entitled.
You have to help me when I ask.

On the "neighbor" app, people are complaining price of tomato and want government to cut Ukraine funding so tomato will be cheaper.
While other fighting for their home and life, we'll let them die so we can have cheap tomato.

First problem is they create temp files in same location and same name.
IV undo only work on first session.
And any UI or setting change will go crazy.

Frederick_Law

SolidWorks tends to tangle itself so having 2 sessions leaves it with a bigger knot and more chances of issues/crashing. IV does too. Don't change any system setting, ribbon, menu bar. Make sure you don't open same file in both session and edit. It actually better to run different versions at the s...

Poke the bear without poking the bear .....
First, see if Tucker could get out of Russia.
We all know what cannot be talked.
Interesting to see what they could talk.

How to craft the interview and get to read Putin's mind.

Don't know if Tucker got balls or death wish.

I know I am a little late to the topic here but I was curious if anyone on this board used the Wiki in the Top 10 community forum. I did notice that Idea objects (light bulbs) are getting assigned 6Wtags but I am not able to search on those tags. That sucks. But I am not a "certified" 3Ds...

Without going into politics, how do you guys feel about Tucker Carlsson going to interview Vladimir Putin? I think this might be very interesting. Wondering if the picture painted by the media will be accurate with what comes out of the interview lol We all know the interview will be scripted, cens...

Wait.... All you wanted was a model to fit in your shop? Why the heck would you go through the trouble of making an assembly? Looks like I was doing it wrong when laying out CNCs in plant. Should have modeled every nuts and bolts. Just take the multibody part and save it as combined body without al...

The site says it "boosts cognition." I suspect most people who buy that could use some cognition boosting, but I have my doubts that the clothing will help. Some people do claim to sense EMF. From high power line and wifi. Wife can sense wifi. She can tell if that's 2.4 or 5GHz. A thermal...

That said what is wrong with a dumb body? Is there any reason why you can't go to the original multibody part to make the changes needed to the part, then do a rebuild & if SW does what it suppose to do the change should happen to the dumb body? No features in dumb body. Dumb body is not the pr...

So, I got this part which the user created a multi body assembly in SolidWorks. Don't ask me why. The feature tree is well and full of his work. I would like to split the parts out into an assembly, but the "save bodies" command creates basically just dumb solids. Is there any way to save...

Yeap.
Let's move all the files to different locations and see what happen.

High-performance, high-temperature plastic enables a 3D printed injection mold to match the performance of an aluminum mold with the benefit of lower cost and faster production.

How about just make them detail views and move them around?

Do a reboot and shutdown.
Some Windows Update need a shutdown to finish.

Becareful when deactivating license.
Do it enough time and it'll get locked and you'll need to contact VAR.

Which lead me to looking into this rabbit hole. So the question is how much you want to pay to have access to over 2TB of files. Do you need all of them across the internet?

Imported a 2019 setting export to excel.
Around 16000 lines with UI stuff.
Around 10000 without.

Write a program to read, catalog, compare settings.
Mapping them to UI options will be, tedious.
This will need update on every new version, if not every SP.

If SW export is bad, export from Regedit.

Do not import/export on first start of SW. Need to close SW to save registry settings. Restart SW then export/import. I don't know if SW create all the values.
