So I just did some tests on a very simple part and it's fine as long as I don't dimension a diameter with an "H7" adjustment for example.
If I make this adjustment once, it slows down the rest of the game a lot. In the plan I was doing at work, there was a lot of "H7" adjustments, in particular.
How can this be explained?
In addition, when I select Adjustment, the display is not great, as this photo relates.
So in general, I don't put the adjustment tolerances when I draw the parts, but only in the plans, I don't know if it's good, but hey.
Now I have just redone the part by indicating immediately that a hole must be adjusted, that is to say an H7, and immediately SW starts to row, and is looking for something....
Once he has found it, (but it's quite laborious, I can continue to draw and dimension everything normally, no more slowness. I remind you that I am in a * .sldprt fcihier, be careful.
I look at the tutorial, it looks pretty good. There are things I don't know, it seems. To all al.
I remade a rectangular part with only a hole in it.
As long as I rib manually, nothing happens. I can go and climb in all directions, nothing slows me down.
As soon as I put an "H7" adjustment or something else (it's as soon as I select "adjustment") the hourglass (wheel) starts to turn, then all the hills are slow to fall into place...
So SolidWorks planes are very sensitive to the number of lines on a plane. The more trades you have, the slower you'll be. The trick is to hide as many views as possible that are finished. So you go to the feature manager, you hide the drawing views, " right click hidden " .once your plan is finished do the reverse operation on the hidden views " right click shown ".
As for the power of my laptop, it's an I7 with 8 Giga of RAM memory, which should be enough; I have never had a problem so far, but I must also say that I rarely put adjustments in my plans...
Hello, nothing to see but for the good of my eyes, we say an adjustment and nn an adjustment!!
Otherwise, the fact that Solid is looking (since it is slow) could come from a file or path that it has lost. So I also advise a repair of the installation.
Yes, you absolutely have to switch to SP5 because it fixes all the bugs of the current version. This is the most complete version of the annual version.
The SP0 version is almost a beta version. Then there is the sp1, sp2, sp3, sp4 and sp5 separated by 2 or 3 months each and which generally fix at least 50 bugs each!!
Go as soon as possible to the SolidWorks website to download the SP5 and you won't have the problem anymore, as I told you before!
