One of the best simple practices for SOLIDWORKS data is to create bookmarks upon the initial save to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Another option to delete files (Physical Products) from the platform is to use the Collaborative Lifecycle App. For assemblies within the bookmark folder, there is an option to delete the entire structure of the assembly and all reference components. Use bookmarks to delete entire groups of data.

Review Metadata in the columns of the Bookmark Editor and Custom properties from SOLIDWORKS files. Bookmark folders are used to further categorize bookmarks like a folder tree structure (Windows Explorer). Think of a Bookmark Workspace as a directory which can contain Bookmark folders.

Use the created Dashboard in Lesson 4 or the individual apps.Ĭreate a Bookmark Workspace using the Bookmark Editor Widget. Two file types are SOLIDWORKS part and SOLIDWORKS assembly (zip).

The lesson covers how to import files into xDesign. What is the main different between SOLIDWORKS model files and xDesign Physical Products?Īre SOLIDWORKS files and xDesign physical products the same? No!ĭo you save and store the files the same? No!ĭoes SOLIDWORKS and xDesign treat parts (components) and assemblies the same? No! He also introduces new apps in the engineering design process. Through the SOLIDWORKS xDesign Lesson series, David helps educators understand the differences and similarities between xDesign and SOLIDWORKS through simple examples. After teaching 1000’s of students and writing about SOLIDWORKS for over 25 years, David Planchard, emeritus WPI, is exploring xDesign.
