http://www.beacon-india.com/ezine/feb-2010/ February edition covers a new feature available in SolidWorks 2010 'Rapid Dimension for Drawing Detailing'. Rapid Dimension is a new option that allows for quick placement of dimensions in Drawings. As soon as you select a edge (or two points) you immediately see a divided circle. For example, if you attempt to place a horizontal dimension, a divided circle appears which has a top and bottom section (each being displayed with different colors). If you select the “top” of the circle, the dimension is automatically placed at the top of the view. If you select the “bottom” of the circle, the dimension is automatically placed at the bottom of the view. SolidWorks intelligently places the dimensions utilizing the dimension spacing settings in the Document Properties. Rapid Dimension will also MOVE existing dimensions so that spacing settings are not violated. The dimensions are still completely adjustable so that you have the freedom to position them as you please.
Apart from this, as a part of building a strong SolidWorks customer community, BEACON has invited its users to Submit their SolidWorks Tips, that would be displayed with the user's credits in the News Letter as well as on
