Recently i have been considering importing quite a large number of non-critical "THIRD PART" parts as graphic body into SOLIDWORKS...
These parts do not need to be measure (well..most of the time) and is mostly for visual guidance
One example will be a ISO 15536 manikins dummy
I had tried doing some simple trial and it work quite well in term of performance.
However, i do not have much chance to do a more detail test or in a more complex/large assembly.
Anyone have experience using Graphic Body feature and mind sharing? Eg: Any bugs, limitations etc?
Before i stumble down this rabbit hole of importing all the part i have on hand as graphic body...
Graphic Body (eg: STL) for "THIRD PARTY" Part

Far too many items in the world are designed, constructed and foisted upon us with no understanding-or even care-for how we will use them.
