Show Component Descriptions API

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by James Spisich, Jan 14, 2008.

  1. Does this exist in SW 2006? (I'm using SP 5.1)

    I see there's a toggle for show feature descriptions:

    FeatureManager.ShowFeatureDescription

    But nothing for setting component name/descriptions in the tree
    display using macros. Was this added in 2008 or something?

    Thanks,
    James

    Funny you should ask:

    http://sw.fcsuper.com/index.php?name=UpDownload&req=viewdownloaddetails&lid=88

    I believe this will work with 2006. If you do run into errors, try
    out this FAQ first before asking here for help:

    Hope it works for you!

  3. It doesn't seem to recognize that in SW 2006. I'm begining to think
    they added this in 2007/2008, but can't confirm because all I have is
    the 2006 API help file to use as reference.
