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.

I do not think this is possible and you will have to toggle the view icons when switching between drawings and parts / assemblies. I may be wrong though

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!

I’ve been noticing the same thing and I’m in XP64.

Do you mean the S key shortcut? It can only be re-sized while in the Customize mode.

CBL, that is when i am unable to resize it. it seems to have a mind of its own and resizes itself however it wants and doesn’t allow me to change how it looks.

alright everyone! i did some research and it is a known issue. it has to do with if you are running solidworks on the secondary display of a dual monitor setup. the work around is to drag solidworks over to your primary monitor and then resize it. this work around worked for me.
let me know if it works for you.

Thank you for finding the workaround to this retarded issue. I have WXP64 and the same problem – the workaround did the trick though.

When you change the scale of a drawing upon hitting ok a message box pops up asking if you want to
Scale the annotations’ position and/or
Scale the annotations’ text height.
Is this what you’re wondering about?
In Document Properties -> Detailing there is a setting for Text Scale relative to drawing scale.
