I have a client running Solidworks 2017 SP4.1 and she cannot see the file viewer tabs when single clicking a Solidworks assembly or part in the vault view. I have installed the latest 2018 e-Drawings and set to the default viewer but there are sill no tabs or preview pane.
Hi Paul
Can you check what this registry key is set to?
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\Applications\PDMWorks Enterprise\PreviewView\explorer
REG_DWORD value “previewtabsvisible”
1 – Show tabs (default)
0 – Do not show tabs
If you backup the registry key and change the value to 1 does it solve the issue?
Yes - After changing this to "1" and Exporting the registry, restarting explorer.exe in Task Manager, this fixed the problem. THANK YOU for the help sir!
Are you talking about this view?
If so, the window is at the bottom of their screen. Point the mouse over the bar at the bottom and drag up.
