WHEN I AM LABELLING PARTS IN AN ASSEMBLY USING A "NOTE" TO COPY AND PASTE SAME NAMES, I GET A HORN SHAPED SYMBOL NEXT TO THE ARROW. WHEN THAT HAPPENS I CANNOT DO ANY THING MORE WKITH THE THE TEXT, AND HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE DRAWING AND RE OPEN IT, THEN I CAN CONTINUE EDITING THE INSERTS TILL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. HOW DO I STOP THIS FROM HAPPPENING AND HOW CAN I GET RID OF IT WITHOUT SHUTTING MY DRAWING DOWN?

I am starting to work with Solidworks scan to 3D and using point cloud data. I have pounded my way through some of the help files and am making some progress but I would like to get some tips and techniques for optimizing the process.

My first project looks like a pistol grip mostly an organic shape. Does anyone know of books or videos? I looked on Cadjunky.com and found one.
Thanks for any help.

Recently, I've added a link to The Solidworks Geek on www.productdesignresources.com located on the Software for Design page. I was wondering if you would be able to add a link back to www.productdesignresources.com in the Design Blogs on your site. The content is design guides, articles, online textbooks, and links to other useful and relevant product design content. Core audience is designers, engineers, product marketers, and project managers. The blog / article post page is located at www.productdesignresources.... .

Thanks much,

Hi Mike,

Wow… the questions certainly getting tougher. Unfortunately, that is slightly out of my experience. I do know, however, that CircuitWorks is now available with SolidWorks Office Premium as of SP4. CircuitWorks is a bi-directional IDF and PADS file interface for SolidWorks. This means that modifications made in SolidWorks can be saved as IDF files that can then be read by your ECAD system. I do not have the ability to play with this CircuitWorks, so I could not tell you more. You might want to check with your VAR or the SolidWorks website for more information on CircuitWorks. Sorry I couldn’t be much help.

I would like to know if there is a method of adding slots to a pc board outline so that It can be transferred via IDF file to an ECAD system and have the slots read in like nmtg holes do? with location and size.....thanks Mike
