Anyone else having issues with SW meshing of 'largish' assemblies? We have noticed in 2015 v5, 64b that when a 'largish' assembly (100+ bodies/parts) that SW "grabs" the computer and "steals" the cursor so you can't effectively use the computer for anything else. Is there something I'm missing? The application is running at normal priority. Machine has plenty of cores/RAM and is not running at 100%.
The symptoms described are consistent with the following known issue:
SPR 864210 - "SOLIDWORKS Simulation – Mesh: While meshing, Mesh progress dialog window/box automatically takes focus after each solid body has been meshed, interrupting anything you may be doing"
This issue is resolved in SOLIDWORKS Simulation 2016 SP3. If you still encounter similar behavior in this version, please contact your SOLIDWORKS Value Added Reseller (VAR) for assistance.
