I've become familiar enough with the program to do what I need to do, but there is one thing that's beginning to get to me: I have to change my balloon appearance every single time I use this program! I have tried changing the balloon… (Show more)

Hi everyone,   Maybe this is a stupid questions, but does anyone know whether you can fix the positions of the inspection balloons after generating them? Of course I use the coordinate system to initially place them, but there are always some balloons that need to be repositioned manually due to overlap with other lines/dimensions/whatnot. When… (Show more)

I have issues with Solidworks Inspection standalone 2019 crashing when "validating license". It happens when I start a new project or randomly. When I start a new project, the "validating license" dialog box comes up with 50%, then the program crashes. I can try 2-3 times before it works.

I think it's amazing to input 3D PMI for Inspection 2018.   But our SOLIDWORKS MBD need to creat drawings for Inspection to use. So that I thinks it's superfluous . Why CATIA & ProE files can input, but SOLIDWORKS MBD can't?

Click to view contentHi Fellow Users   We have been using SWI for a number of years and irritatingly with each iteration, there seems to be a new problem introduced.   Whilst the latest version was installed some months ago, usage has been limited as there were few jobs that required its use.   However, it has come to light today that setting the Template Location… (Show more)

Hi,   We just got inspection Pro 2018 and cannot seem to find any documentation about this topic.   We use both CMM's and Video measuring devices.   The Video measuring devices can output their data as a .csv or and excel sheet.   I like to be able to read that data back into inspection.   None of the templates that come with Inspection seem… (Show more)
