I'm looking to see if there's a option for single parts for example to Auto Rebuild. Currently if you double click a sketch or feature so that it shows you the sketch dimensions and/or the feature dimensions (if applicable) and change them that way, it won't automatically rebuild. But if you edit a sketch or feature, It updates the sketch geometry as you change the dim's. This perfect. But I'm looking for all the time rebuild. I'm not use to hitting rebuild every fricken time...:)
ctrl Q
Is what I do and it doesn't take long, - I also have a macro that I use in a drawing file, it opens the file, rebuilds and closes the model for every view, takes a few minutes to run through a 30 - 50 multiple page drawing file....
Understand that but, it would be nice if it would update automatically. Drawings is something different. I have that option turned off
I agree that the rebuild issue can be a huge problem - got me in trouble quite often and especially if you have multiple level sub-assemblies that have numerous configurations, might as well forget it...
If SW would do a complete clean rebuild every time, (not just once in awhile), we would have much better results, but it comes down to using SW in a way it's not designed.
I assume that is part of the intent, you can change a few dims in different features and it will not rebuild on you until commanded.
Hot Key - Ctrl B will rebuild all sketches/features.
Little surprised I didn't get more feed back. Back in 2011 it seam to bother some.. Anyways, think I throw in a enhancement request. This is something I'm having fun getting use to...
