Hi there,
Could anyone point to some decent royalty free resources for blocks to insert into Solidworks drawings (or Composer) for creating language agnostic assembly instructions (eg warning sign, orientation....)? We have some in house - but I'm spending a lot time here creating simple symbols that are missing.
Fyi, not getting along much with ilustrator with the little time I have, and solidworks won't let me create a Block from a 3D model drawing view, which would solve my current...

Hi all!
Problem with solidworks:
I have a new laptop with windows 11 and now there seems to be an issue with the realview function: I can't enable it. I have went through numerous ways trying to do it, but so far with no success. Does anyone have info about solution to this problem?
My Solidworks version is 2021, graphics card Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU, and its current driver is 512.36. I have tried creating new register keys as that seems to be working solution in many cases...

Hi, I'm very new to this forum. I am experiencing trouble saving a set of composite curves as a parasolid. When I have a wire frame of what I want i click File : Save As and I change the type to parasolid .x_t. On clicking Save an error box comes up saying "The file could not be saved because the part's geometry is not valid for this type of save operation." Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong and how I can rectify this situation?
Best regards
