  i am using solidworks 2010. does anyone know why the center dimension option is not available on diameter dimensions? i want to place a diameter dimension inside a circle but i do not want it to be on center because then it is over top the center marks. in 2009 you could rmb click the dimension > select display options > uncheck center dimension.

  any ideas?

  this may sound like a dumb question but it is peaking my interest. when i am ballooning something in an assembly it gives me the option to put the “item number” in the balloon. how does sw assign an item number and what is it? the item number always seems to correspond with the detail number i assign to our components somehow. can anyone give me some insight on this?

  i just started using real view graphics and i am wondering if there is a way to show it in your parts and assemblies but have it turned off in your drawings when you are using shaded modes (mainly shaded with edges). by the way, i am using solidworks 2009.

  hey everyone! i am running 64 bit vista ultimate with solidworks 2009 sp2.0 ev 64 bit. has anyone experienced the inability to resize the shortcut bar with these settings? it is not a early visibility issue because i have had this problem since sp0.0. please let me know, it is not a show stopper but can be kind of annoying!

  Using SW 2009 SP1

  Is there a way to change the default size that chamfers and radii come in when you use those commands.

  Hey everyone!

  I am using SolidWorks 2009 and was wondering if there is a way to move a geometric tolerance box from on top a dimension line to below it. Thanks in advance.
