Beginner's Guide to SOLIDWORKS 2019- Level I

If the eDrawings file is generated using SOLIDWORKS Office Professional

or the educational edition, the eDrawings Professional version is loaded.

eDrawings Professional includes additional options, including tools to move the

components in assemblies, measure, add markups and stamps and, if it's a part

or assembly, make section views of the models.

Selecting the "Animate" command will allow us to navigate the different

views in the eDrawings file. Pressing "Play" animates the views and will change

from one to the next. At any time, the animation can be stopped, and the view

zoomed in, rotated and an ned.

While in an eDrawings of an assembly, the parts can be moved by

dragging them. To return them to their original location, double-click

on them or click on the Home icon.

If the assembly has an exploded view, in the "Explode View" tab we

can explode or collapse the assembly and animate as well.

Part and assembly eDrawings can be sectioned. Select the

"Section" icon, and pick a plane to section about from the options.

To move the section plane, simply drag it in the graphics area.

JS Part, assembly, and drawing eDrawings can be measured. To help

protect confidential data, this option has to be enabled at the time

Measure of saving each document.

To activate the "Enable measure" option when saving a published

eDrawings file, go to the menu "Options, System Options, Export." Under

/ "File Format" select EDRW /EPRT/EASM (eDrawings format for drawings,

parts and assemblies). Check the option "Okay to measure this eDrawing's

file," otherwise the measure tool will be disabled for all published

eDrawings.
