SOLIDWORKS 2023 enhancements will make you more productive when designing and editing parts to streamline and accelerate your product development processes.
Enhancements include:
- Equations – Leverage the Move/Copy bodies command and define translation and rotation of bodies with equations, even on a per configuration basis.
- Ellipse Tool – Create ellipses with construction geometry making orientation effortless by selecting a construction line then choosing the appropriate relation. Fully defining the ellipse is easier too since you don't have to select multiple points to define the major and minor axes.
- Defeature Tool – Create a configuration of your defeatured parts (useful for creating simplified versions). Since it’s a derived configuration it will adopt changes made to its parent configuration. Replacing the complex version of this component in the assembly no longer requires selecting a new part file and reattaching mates. Simply select the configuration from the drop-down menu.
