How do I use SmartProperties masks for the property list in myCADtools?


In some tools of the myCADtools suite you have the possibility to select a property from a predefined list, for example in the tool BatchProperties. This list points to the "Properties.txt" file that is set in the SOLIDWORKS general options.


 


If you use the SmartProperties to fill in the custom properties of your documents (Part, Assembly or Drawing) and you have defined fields to create or modify these properties, it is now possible to use them to create/use this list in myCADtools. This list can then be expanded and the display order changed either by requesting alphabetical order or by moving the position of certain properties. This option is found in the myCADpassport.
