With a right click it is possible :

  • Either add the active document in SOLIDWORKS (part or assembly).
  • Or select the files to be processed from the file explorer.

When the following message appears ...


 


... this means that :

  • Or the part does not have a sheet metal function (volume functions only).
  • Either the part has sheet metal functions but the "List of welded parts" function has not been updated.


     -->

   -->

 


In the case of a part with several sheet metal bodies, these items will appear in the list. The different thicknesses will also be visible for each body. Multiple files can be selected by clicking on "Browse to add a document".


 


In the case of an assembly comprising components with sheet metal functions ...


 


... the list shows a construction tree identifying all the sheet metal parts contained in the various components of the assembly. It is then easy to check or uncheck the laser cuts to be taken into account for processing.


 


The presentation of the columns (addition of column, width of the column, properties,...) can be adjusted in the tab options.

Depending on where the right mouse click is made, a contextual menu authorizes certain actions.
