Q for Wayne M. Tiffany

Hi Wayne,
I have downloaded the keypad macro's, maybe I am being a bit thick here,
lol, but how do I get them to work using the keypad?
I know I must have the numlock on, but where do I put these macro's and what
do I need to do?

The article by Lee.L Bell explains what they do, but not, "what to do, from
download, to where and how", to enable them to work.
I have recorded my own macro's and ran them, but I suspect this is not the
way for the keypad macro's

Many thanks

You are only intelligent as in what you know, would you like fries with
that?

 

Basically, the macros need to be on your drive at C:\Program
Files\SolidWorks2005\Macros (or your SW install location) and then you need
to assign all the macros to the keys - a fair bit of work. Go to
Tools/Customize to do that.

However, with the new Copy Settings Wizard, you can import all of my hotkey
assignments and be up & running in a flash. If that's the desired action,
go to www.KCSWUG.com/documents and grab the file SW2005HotkeysOnly.sldreg.
Then when you run it on your machine, the wizard will take all of the hotkey
assignments and stuff them into your registry. There are more assignments
than just the numpad macros, but if you downloaded all of the macros, you
should be just fine.

Let me know if you need more help, or when you are up & running.

Thank you Wayne, that is a lot clearer, lol
I will install them tomorrow and let you know how I get on.
