U don't appreciate the impact of design table We have our entire manufacturing foolproof automated using this : 1. Engineer puts intended design dimensions into excel sheet, 2. Excel is linked to Company's inventory & is programmed using if else statement to choose closest part from inventory & 3. update inventory too. 4. That excel file is automatically read by design table and model is updated. 5. Engineer just presses drawings and updated manufacturing drgs incorporating design change go to production.
Hi, thanks for the video! I know that it exist other parameters that are not listed in solidworks help documents and I m looking for exclude a part from the bom. Do you have any ideas on what would be the parameter for this? Thanks again!
Can I create a table for different diameters, but using some Excel formula to automate the choice of length, or do I have to put an infinite number of length lines for each diameter? Ex.: -Cast Iron Flanged DN200, L= [250,500,700...] -Cast Iron Flanged DN250, L= [250,500,700...] or -Cast Iron Flanged DN200, L=250 -Cast Iron Flanged DN200, L=500 -Cast Iron Flanged DN200, L=700 -Cast Iron Flanged DN250, L=250 -Cast Iron Flanged DN250, L=500 -Cast Iron Flanged DN250, L=700
11:19 "if that's not how you prefer to use the environment ..." part is here Context: Excel within Solidworks 11:39 "The spreadsheet still exists inside solidworks model, it's just being opened up in a separate excel instance"
Please , how to increase numbers for example every numbers on cell +2 for example menu dishes restaurant prices , automatically increase the price 2 dollars some one know??
Hii, I have a question. Can you use design tables across multiple models? Maybe creating a design table for each part and pasting them in the same excel document. Does anyone know if that is possible?
Yes, if it's across multiple models, you can use Insert>Excel Design Table and choose "Source: From file", and can browse to the other design tables you've used in other models. Is that what you mean? Yes, you'd also be able to Copy/Paste the data, but I think the former method is easier.
It's not changed, merely an alternate option. Excel formulas allow much more versatility. If you want a simple table, right-click any feature on the feature tree and click "Configure Feature".
> _"It's not changed, merely an alternate option"_ @@jordankleinschmidt2984 what are you talking aaboout??? Earlier, the table opened in excel as well, but in a separate window. Now it opens in this messy forcefully embedded like excel.
This is exactly what I was looking for. thank you!
Thanks for your great job!

that is, plan for how it should behave when something changes

Wow, i was thinking of watching it later, bit surprising that i watched complete 😅albeit @1.75x

@@jordankleinschmidt2984 Yes I'll try that out, thank you!
Why did they change design table to excel? It was easyer and more userfriendly before.
yeah, i can agree with that
