Hello
I'm looking for a windows software or add-in for solidworks so that I can enter my numerical values (dimensions, etc.) with my mouse.
Not having a touch screen, I can't make the numeric keypad of the touch mode appear in solidworks. I had a previous job a 3D mouse with a virtual numpad but too expensive for my current job.
Anyone have an idea?
Thank you in advance.
Hello Jerome,
You have to go to the windows settings
Then on the search for the " V keyboard" type
you will get the message " Enable or disable the on-screen keyboard"
you click on it
Then in the first part " Using the On-Screen Keyboard"
You activate and you will have your keypad number
I'm still available if you have any questions

Thanks, it activates the windows visual keyboard.
But do you have a technique to have only the numpad and not the letters please?
to the right of the keyboard you have the "Option" button
There is a box that you can activate to display the numpad, its positioned on the right
but unfortunately it doesn't hide the letters
Yes, indeed.
I had also found apps to have a numpad but it doesn't work all the time with Solidworks.
That's why I asked the question.
Hello
I found this:
A little old... 2019
I just tried it on rib input in a sketch and it seems to work...
In addition, it can be customized: adding buttons and more.
Hello and thank you.
I know it but I've had problems with double clicks instead of 1 with this software for several years
(since I switched to wireless mice)
