Example projects for SwEx Framework
Add-in which allows quick exporting of the selected component in the assembly to one of neutral formats (IGES, STEP or Parasolid)
Export commands available in the menu, toolbar and the command tab box.
Commands are disabled unless component is selected.
Components are saved into the Export folder in the root assembly location and named the same as the source component.
Add-in which allows inserting similar notes multipe times. Note can be inserted relative to the drawing sheet coordintae system or relative to the selected object coordinate.
User needs to specify the note text, size and offset in the property manager page. These options are preserved across the session.
Add-in allows converting selected solid body or bodies into the corresponding surface bodies.
Add-in utilizes macro feature so the converted body preserves parametric functionality.
Example demonstrates how to create API in SOLIDWORKS add-in and call it from the stand-alone application or macro. API allows to create cylindrical body with specified parameters.
Add-in is using documents handler utility of the framework to setup custom model colorizer to display the heat map for distance of selected point.
Demonstration of technique to call SOLIDWORKS add-in API from stand-alone application as in-process call. This improves the performance in 100s of times.
Demonstration of alternative approach to create SOLIDWORKS add-in API. Running object table (ROT) is used in this case. This technique enables the ability to call API without the need to reference SOLIDWORKS interop libraries.
Demonstration of using of 3rd party storage store and streams to manage issues associated with documents. WPF interface is added to task pane allowing to view and edit issues.
Demonstration of using macro feature to create a geometry linked to external file with an ability to regenerate the geometry when the source file is updated.
Tool to export SOLIDWORKS drawings to PDF by printing them to PDF printer via eDrawings
Demonstration hosting of eDrawings control in the Windows Forms Application
Demonstration hosting of eDrawings control in the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
Demonstration of eDrawings Markup API to collect the measurement data
