Unreachable edrawing recording option

Hello

Since the switch to SolidWorks 2019 I no longer have access to the recording options at all when I do a "save as" in edrawing format.

As a result... the edrawing is certainly configured not to be measurable and so I can measure absolutely nothing on the edrawing !!

If anyone has the same problem and a lead to dig into, I'm interested because it's getting very annoying.

Thank you in advance.

Hello

It's 2019 and it's working.

We should look at the general parameters and the options. It must be a very simple thing, like a box that is not checked or that is wrongly checked.

What format do you start from to make your E.Drawing? an SLDPRT, an ASM or others???

Kind regards

 

PS: it's a shame that OBIWAN doesn't go through this because he would tell you that the force is with you. :-)

I asked the question to Visiativ support and it seems that it is voluntary because a new way to export is available.

To do this, in the file menu, publish to edrawings and there all the options are available.

Otherwise this option is still accessible from a step but not from easm.

To change the options, either you pretend to save in step and then from the option button you access the edrawing export parameter and then you switch back to easm...

Thank you @sbadenis great information ;-)

This is part of the overall logic of the pack and go type because it makes it possible to better isolate the export criteria and thus the interfacing between software that is very related from a functional point of view. (especially these two who are in the logic of co-construction and transparent exchange).

Kind regards

To illustrate my previous answer

The option menu visible from a Save As with step:

The "Deleted" option menu from a save as with EASM:

For me version 2018 and the option is already removed...
