One way to access this functionality is to use the new SOLIDWORKS login feature. If you use the SOLIDWORKS software with multiple machines, you can update your settings on any of the machines and synchronize those settings across all machines that run SOLIDWORKS 2018. Synchronizing Setting & Options across multiple machines (logging in) This setting can be found within the Sketch tab of the Tools > Options > System Options.Ħ. Including the functionality to Auto-Rotate on sketch edit is extremely helpful when correcting or editing sketches. This settings was previously known as “Auto-rotate view normal to sketch plane on sketch creation” but within 2018, it is now “Auto-rotate view normal to sketch plane on sketch creation and sketch edit”. This provides many benefits but one example is determining the blank material size required for manufacturing. The Bounding Box tool is found within the Reference Geometry sub-menu and its properties are located within the configuration specific tab of the File > Properties. Previously you could only create a bounding box for a Weldment, but now it is possible with any bodies in SOLIDWORKS. This eliminates any errors that can occur during the translation process. When importing one of these files types there is no translation required. In 2018, the functionality includes support for STEP, IGES, and ACIS file formats. Sections in the Alerts tab include Critical, Troubleshooting, and Technical Alerts.ģD Interconnect was new in 2017 and allowed files from other CAD packages to be natively opened in SOLIDWORKS without translation. The Alerts tab keeps you updated with SOLIDWORKS news. These include Tutorials, MySOLIDWORKS Training, Samples and much more. The Learn tab lets you access instructional resources to help you learn more about the SOLIDWORKS software. Sections in the Recent tab include Documents and Folders. The Recent tab lets you view a longer list of recent documents and folders. The Home tab lets you open new and existing documents, view recent documents and folders, and access SOLIDWORKS resources.
It also allows you to stay updated on SOLIDWORKS news. This provides many useful tools right within the same window. When you open SOLIDWORKS 2018, you will notice the Welcome Dialog Box now has multiple different tabs.
