I learned these things myself after spending a long time. Your tips are super great for beginners and also professionals too. Best of the best series of Solidworks ever met.

[@terdrecsirkek]

For number 3 tip, I higly recommend to use the sheet scale properties instead of change it in the view. The sheet information panel shows the sheet scale, not the view. Which can lead to some catastrophic moment😅. One time I got my sheet metal in 2:1 size. The information panel said it was 1:1… laser cutter put the dxf on the machine without any check and boom. It was a high priority part so my boss was not amused 😅.

[@with-Aryan]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Johannes-ch6dp]

With right-click to the view you can add a label to the view, if it has a different scale.

ARYAN, You do such a great job coming across clearly about how to execute commands in SolidWorks. appreciate what you post here on KZbin.

[@with-Aryan]

glad it works for you Victor

[@christinadominguez5010]

If you apply different configurations in length, is there a way to control the break lines position to always stay parallel in the drawing in the different configurations.

[@with-Aryan]

That's a good one!

[@SSmith_713]

How do you make the bounding boxes from weldments smaller on drawings?

[@with-Aryan]

In SolidWorks, bounding boxes are automatically generated to fit the exact size of the component, so you can't directly make them smaller. They're intended to provide the exact outer dimensions of a part or assembly. However, there are a few workarounds you could try if you're looking to reduce the appearance of the bounding box in your drawings: Hide Bounding Box: If the bounding box is not necessary for your drawings, you can hide it. To do this, go to the FeatureManager design tree, find the bounding box under the solid bodies folder, right click on it and select "Hide." Change View Scale: If the bounding box appears too large in relation to other components in the drawing, you can adjust the view scale to make everything appear smaller. This doesn't shrink the bounding box itself, but it does make everything in the view, including the bounding box, appear smaller. Use Break View: If your weldment is long and thin causing the bounding box to be large in the drawing, you might want to use the "Break View" option. This allows you to remove sections of the part in the drawing view, effectively reducing the size of the bounding box as displayed.

I was actually interested that you design catheters. Looong ago I worked in a cardiac cath lab, so I know what those are. But I never thought about who was making them. Kind of cool.

[@with-Aryan]

yeah, thanks, I'm a person who is also designing them

[@Gkuljian]

@@with-Aryan I was in on some of the first coronary angioplasty procedures. We even had balloon catheters burst. I'm guessing your designs have to be reviewed by physicians or something. Anyways this is off topic. Interesting though.

[@with-Aryan]

@@Gkuljian yes they have to. I've done those but mainly TAVI

[@Gymnasium1006]

Sir ,could u please upload a vedio on how to decide the tolerance values for a particular component, I mean wheather there is any STANDARDS or simply we can give any kind of values

[@with-Aryan]

Oh only if it was that easy. Tolerancing is a vast topic and you need to understand WHAT is it that you are defining a tolerance for. A tolerance on a heart valve is different than a tolerance on a truck's bumper than a gear on a car's engine! Every component deals with a different range of tolerances. To understand it better, look for tolerancing and in general after that GD&T

[@dwaynecadguy1897]

can you explain how to add dimensions like in the top left view with no arrow heads?

[@with-Aryan]

all you have to do is to go to the settings, and in the search bar there, type arrow, then it brings you to the page where you can change the dim types

[@dwaynecadguy1897]

@@with-Aryan I did a google search and found out about ordinate dimensioning. That is the dimensioning you have on the top left. That is what i am doing on a practice part i am drawing.

How can a Solid woks (step) dwg can be converted to Eps. Dwg format

[@neatmachine]

Excellent video! Tips are always helpful! Tips on how to customize flyouts, mouse gestures, shorten selection boxes, etc. might be considered. Also Solidworks usually comes with a rendering add-on which I believe is RealView. Lastly, I have "motion" which allows you to animate your designs and save as a video. Tips on these would be great as well!. If you have already covered these, please let me know the link to view. Thanks!

How can we edit thickness of lines For chamfer, fillet etc

[@with-Aryan]

It is not clear what you are asking me here

[@sachindesai5298]

@@with-Aryan hello sir, When we creat part we add chamfers for the sharp corners of the body and we import that part in drawing we get chamfer lines in the part which become bit messy and unclear to recognise original part body lines so my question is that how can we edit those chamfer lines in drawing.

[@tedpiper4448]

This a very good way to give us tips. Thanks again

Always welcome

[@udarachathuranga1920]

Hello sir, I have a problem. Can we show the all configurations of the same part in BOM table? If it is possible how can we do that?

[@with-Aryan]

First, open the assembly file that contains the part with configurations. Now, go to the "Insert" menu, navigate to "Tables" and select "Bill of Materials". In the "Bill of Materials" property manager, you will see the option for "BOM Type". Here you can choose "Parts only" or "Indented" to display each configuration of a part as a separate item in the BOM. After the table is inserted, right-click on the table and select "BOM table" to display the BOM property manager again. In the "BOM Options" section, select the checkbox for "Display configurations of the same part as separate items". Click "OK" to apply the changes.

Hi Aryan the tips you provided is quite beneficial for me but can you elaborate your seventh point as if you want to gave dimensions to your whole drawing it could be messy so it's quite hectic for you to give dimensions one by one.is there any way to solve this

To do that you must add all the dimensions right from the beginning. I might make a video on that. Hard to explain on text

[@mortezag2010]

Well, calling these tips is a bit of a stretch. Maybe "tools you learned recently?" Also, that hole callout is showing a wrong depth for your holes as the part is only 5mm thick where the holes are. Otherwise, good video.

[@markpaterick5524]

these tips are all great but very basic

[@albertrichartbenito1806]

Sorry Ryan, you can't put a dimension on a hidden line, it's against rules' drawings. It is a bad use and it's better not to show it to beginners.

[@with-Aryan]

having the option to do that, is a blessing that gives you more creativitly and ways out!
