Drawing Sheet Quick View
SolidWorks 2009
now allows a drawing sheet to be opened with a “Quick
View” option. (File, Open, select the drawing document,
place a check to enable Quick View.) How many times have
you loaded a complex drawing, only to find out it was the
incorrect file? Using the Quick View option will
certainly help save valuable time.
A multi-sheet
drawing opened with the Quick View option will allow you
to quickly toggle through the sheets without loading the
model into memory. Once you decide which sheet you need
to work on, it can be loaded by right clicking and
choosing “Load Sheet.” Rather than loading all of the
sheets into memory, you’re now able to selectively load
drawing sheets to save valuable memory resources on your
machine.
