I have been fighting with Solidworks for almost 2 years now. I have been a customer since 2005. Every year it gets worse and since the update to 2019 I have had so many problems.
1. Assemblies with flexible sub assemblies will throw random errors that I have to correct by making it rigid and then flexible again.
2.I cant select edges or even objects sometimes also. I have to move the view and sometimes close the assembly and reopen it.
3. IT IS SLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much slower than 2018 and any other previous builds. I constantly get "Waiting for command to finish
4. Perspective doesn't show correctly (randomly)
5. Did I say it is slow, I mean really slow, to the point I have to get up and walk away.
6. Photoview 360 has slowed to the point that I can no longer manipulate the assembly with my preview open, It causes my computer to work so slowly that I get around 1 frame per second or maybe even less.
I am getting fed up with this "program", each year they raise the pricing and each year I get an inferior product to the previous year. I am seriously considering Autodesk because of my level of frustration at this point even though I have thousands of hours of work ahead of me to update to a new cad program.
They are doing exactly that. It's the online version of their software (3D Experience I think they are calling it.) The desktop version of SW is dying. They may keep it on life support for as long as they can find suckers to give them money, but they will not invest significant resources in what they clearly consider a dying technology.
