Turn off Real View Graphic by default // during installation

Unread post by zwei »

When SOLIDWORKS is first installed, the Real View Graphic is turned on by default

Is there a way to turn it off by default during/after the installation without needing the user to turn it off manually?

Maybe some registry edit?

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.

Edit your templates and turn it off inside your template. I believe the setting is file dependant.

Edit: NVM after testing it out myself, it is a user setting, so if someone activates it, it is on until the user turns it off, and vice versa. Perhaps have a default settings file with it turned off inside it...?

We turn RealView off with these registry settings:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\SOLIDWORKS 2021\Performance]
"Saved OGL Settings"=dword:00000035
"OGL Display Shaders"=dword:00000000

I can't get it set in a settings file. "RealView" is not in the settings except for "PDF RealView Graphics".
