This interface allows you to:

  • Retrieve the locations defined in the SOLIDWORKS General Options. These locations correspond to the folders where you save custom profiles (SLDLFP).
  • Define the contents of the "Name" and "Description" columns differently depending on whether the SLDLFP file contains one or more configurations. There are several possible cases:

The file contains only one configuration:

  • Checked option:

The "Name" column will display the folder and the file name without the extension; the "Description" column will display the file name without the extension.

  • Option unchecked:

The "Name" column will display the file name without the extension plus the configuration name; the "Description" column will display the value of the property defined in the options. If this property does not exist, the configuration name will be used as the "Description."


Example of an imported table:


 


P.S.: The values for cross-sections, mass per meter, and density are calculated using SOLIDWORKS during import.

The units correspond to the units defined in the document properties of the profile files (SLDLFP).
