* The second part with the same name as another open part will use the first opened part *SolidWorks can only have one part with a given name open at a time * Avoid names like “bracket”, “cover”, “base”, etc.
Use SolidWorks Explorer to copy or rename files and maintain references Use menu File, Save As when the assembly is open to attach renamed file to existing assembly.ģ1.

Don’t rename files from Windows Explorer unless it is a document with no references (part not used in an assembly, assembly not used in another assembly or a drawing), or you know in advance how you’re going to solve the problem which you’re about to create.ģ0. Move dims / Copy dims: Move = Shift-drag, Copy = Ctrl-dragĢ9. RMB selection options: Select loops, chains, tangency, partial loops, open loops, Select Midpoint,etc.Ģ8.

While making and default plane or axis try using default planes as reference.ġ9. Use design library to create parts/features to be used repeatedly.ġ8. Use faces, axes, default planes for mating in assembly.ġ7. Press “Alt” while reordering parts in the main/top level assembly to avoid them being added to the any sub assembly.ġ6.
During applying mates in assembly, select the edge, press “Alt” button and drag the part to respective face to get the concentric and coincident mate in one go.ġ5. Make default templates for metric/ inches settings for part, drawing & assembly.ġ4. Use equations/ link values to work quicker.ġ3. Use design table/ Configurations in parts & assembly.ġ2. Don’t change the default settings for line types, colors, etc.ġ1. Keep Image quality in Tools>Option>Document properties on lower side.ġ0. Keep level of details on lower side and mate animation speed set to fast in Tools>Option>System Option> Performance.ĩ. Click off the things in the “View” like temporary axes, sketch relations, etc.Ĩ.
