Viewing File Details (Add-In)

You can view detailed information about SolidWorks files. You can also perform actions on files from the File Details window.

To view detailed information about a file, click a file name or preview thumbnail from the files list in a workspace. The File Details window provides file information as well as information about ownership, version number, and to which workspaces the file is currently shared.
