Sheet Metal Slot Propagation in SOLIDWORKS 2024

If an assembly has parts connected with a Tab and Slot feature in SOLIDWORKS, the slot can be propagated to other corresponding parts.
In the example in this video, the assembly is made up of three sheet metal parts that are connected with taps and slots. To demonstrate, I copied the front sheet metal and mated it to the other side. The part has tabs in it, but the adjacent parts don't have any slots. In SOLIDWORKS 2024, we can right-click on a part and propagate slots. After identifying which Slot Propagation you want to use, you'll see that the slots have been propagated to both adjacent parts.
