Hi,
In Solidworks drawing,there is an option Solidworks author,if assigned it automatically gives the name of the designer (name with i log in to my system)..Also if we open the same drawing file in some other system(log in with other name) whose system name is of others,it will change author name to that system name..How can we avoid this?I dont want the name to be changed when its opened in other system..
Thanks,
Lingesh
but for that to work u need to add that custom property for every part file..Is there no other way for this?
this option of solidworks author works fine.but when we opened in others system it will take the name of that system..thats to be avoided..
My way of thinking.......
All history should start at the part level - therefore all information is stored there, if you store it only on the drawing level then there could be disconnects, just like you are experiencing.
The second tier of history is at the assembly level, but that information is only what pertains to the assembly, not the part.
The drawing is only a means of visual communication, any important information is derived from the part or assembly and posted directly in the title block from there.
It may take time to change it - but I would, if it's important info
I would add a custom property called Designer Name and then in the drawing title block I would type in $PRPSHEET:"Designer Name" - then all the history stays with that part or assembly
