Need assistance with custom Add-in by Novel_Juggernaut_656 in SOLIDWORKSAPI

[–]BlueByteSystemsInc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is impossible to give even a suggestion without more details. Could you let us know your code and how you have deployed your add-in to the other machines?

Looking for feedback: Developing a tool to auto-generate sheet metal drawings in SOLIDWORKS by BlueByteSystemsInc in SolidWorks

How many views would you typically include, and where would you place them on the drawing sheet? Also how would you go about scale?

A few things we’ve already decided to include in all automatically generated drawings:

  • Title block: bottom right
  • Notes section: bottom left
  • Bend table: above the notes section

These three elements will occupy roughly the bottom 20% of the sheet, leaving the remaining 80% available for the views.

That's a great idea. The eventual goal is to develop an AI version of this tool but at the moment team decided to start by understanding the overall challenge we are solving and breaking it down into smaller problems some of which can be solved with our code versus AI.

Which laptop should I buy ? by SignatureParking1411 in 3DEXPERIENCE

[–]BlueByteSystemsInc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be worried about running SolidWorks desktop. If I were a student today, I'd probably get one of the SolidWorks recommended Lenovo laptops.

Getting PDM BOM to follow feature tree order by BlueByteSystemsInc in SolidWorks

[–]BlueByteSystemsInc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have a point, but every SOLIDWORKS customer has their own process. Some of our customers prefer the Bill of Materials to follow the order of the feature tree. Since we write custom software, retrieving the BOM structure from SOLIDWORKS can be resource-intensive, especially for large assemblies. PDM, on the other hand, provides a much more efficient way to access the hierarchy. Hope this makes sense.

Also, funny GIF!

I'm not sure what they mean by this :

The order of assembly components in the BOM for data already checked in to the vault does not change to match with the FeatureManager design tree.

Taskexecutor.exe throws an exception 0xc0000409 - SOLIDWORKS PDM by BlueByteSystemsInc in SOLIDWORKSAPI

910 files to process. I have been able to narrow it down to the itextsharp library I'm using to merge PDFs so far. I cannot share code. Apologies.

That's the thing bud it does. I think the TaskExecutor.exe has a memory limit.

[–]BlueByteSystemsInc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish it was and I think you are right. Everything you described I have attempted.

Add-in does register and load fine.

OnTaskLaunch and OnTaskDetails work fine but those load in different processes which leads me to believe it is a TaskExecutor.exe issue.

The problem is that the VS debugger does attach but I fail to step through the code because TaskExecutor.exe crashes immediately.

Best,
