Frame under SW2013

Hi all

 

I'm looking for ways to create frames for myself, with my preferences under SW2013.

 

In fact I would like to be able to change some elements or create a new part file with my preferences and the fonts used in my company.

 

Same for the drawing, so that I no longer have to change the size of the tolerance each time,....

 

Thank you in advance for all the solutions you will bring me.

 

Have a good day @ all and have a good weekend

 

 

 

 

Hello

If I understand correctly, you are looking to make document templates.

 

For each type of document, after validating your different options, you must register as and choose:

 

  • PRTDOT file for parts
  • ASMDOT file for assemblies
  • DRWDOT file for drawings

Hello Frepo,

What's most interesting about models is sharing them. Indeed, when there are several of you using SolidWorks in a company, it is much easier to have the same cartridge, the same documents, the same bills of materials, etc.

To do this, you need to create a folder to which all users have access (for example on your server), and then deposit your templates there.

Then in "System Options", "File Location" point to the corresponding folder.

Thus we can share many elements: bill of materials model, appearance model, drilling assistance, welded construction profiles, part family model, design log models...

Kind regards
