SOLIDWORKS 2024 offers productivity enhancements to STEP file import. When importing an assembly, users are given the opportunity to Enable Filter. Using this option will provide the user with a complete assembly component tree prior to importing all STEP geometry. Users can then choose desired components from the list.
Productivity enhancements improve assembly tools in SOLIDWORKS 2024. Insert Component now includes the configuration name and description. Configuration names are often part numbers, which may not be descriptive enough when choosing configurations during component insert. Now, with the use of descriptions, users can ensure they are selecting the correct configuration from the start.
