Correct Answer

Hi,

 

It depends what you want to modify.

 

What you can do without SolidWorks installed

  • Modify metadata and file references via Document Manager API
  • Display 3D model (custom viewer) via SolidWorks display lists or 2D previews
  • Extract the parasolid bodies geometry via Document Manager (you might need to have a Parasolid license to do this)
  • Access the data stored in 3rd party storage
  • Read assembly and drawing components tree

 

What you can't do

  • Read features tree information
  • Change the parameters
  • Change the geometry

 

Thanks,
Artem
