I've noticed two things I'd really like to see.
1. The ability to increase the size of the thumbnail of a part in your design library so it's of a size that you can see when scrolling through a stack of hundreds of parts.

2. The ability to use equations and global dimensions when setting feature dimensions. I.e., when using extrude, direction 1 dimension = 0.5*"height". I know for some features (like extrude) you can get around this by putting in a nominal dimension initially then once it is set, double-clicking on the feature in the feature tree and changing the dimension that shows up in blue text on the model.

Great video thank you but I do think that cloud services should not be an optional upgrade for existing customers I think it should be included.

Nice to see young Billy Crystal again. hehehe

Something that is irritating is that for those of us that have paid maintenance for years have to pay extra for cloud services while you include it at no cost for new seats. Punishing your existing users that have paid 1000's in maintenance to support you over the years isn't a good look.

please do this tab and slot on curved (built from multiple arcs) surfaces. I wanted to make a welded S letter in 3 separate pieces.

[DorianLust]

Can you "pack and go" to a previous version of solidworks?

[supersaiyan]

Please add more keyboard shortcuts like there are in inventor

[QwertyCanada]

Correct me if I'm wrong, you could alwaye save your coordinate of choice when e exporting files. This is not new???

اذا لم يكن هناك ميزة تصغير او تكبير ايا تصميم بعد النتهاء من تصميمه اصنعو هذه الميزة مما يجعل العمل السهل بعد الانتهاء من التصميم لربما احتاج الى تصغير القطعة او محرك ما ، فلا حاجة لتصغيرها قطعة قطعة انما اقوم بتصغير الهيكل الية العمل في البرنامج تقوم بتصغير القطع الموجودة في الهيكل بدون تحركها من مكانها
وشكرا solid work

a stupid question here. How to move the auxiliary view in direction other than normal in Soldiworks drawing?

[mrbillgoode]

I prefer Siemens NX for one reason; less competition from 'two bit' minions.

[rickpapineau]

I'm addicted to SolidWorks, but I'm also retired and use the software as a hobby.
What is the Processor and Ram requirement now going to be?

[mjktrash]

I have less than ZERO interest in a cloud based anything. Like I want my IP out there on the cloud.

[lobstermendez]

Although it's pretty informational, this presentation felt way too scripted and I'm pretty sure that each of the comments you read were planted.

[mjktrash]

Perhaps SW24 will make a liar out of me, but I am so tired of hearing about "Performance Improvements" every year, I'm over it.

You want to impress me? FIX large patterns, until then I just don't want to hear about it. SW performance improvements are a marketing lie every year.
