Cut List Folder Names Inherited from DESCRIPTION Property

You can have the software automatically name cut list folders in a weldment part using the value of the cut list DESCRIPTION property.

Cut list folders with meaningful names provide more information when you check the weldment structure and allow for better communication when you share documents. You can manually rename the folders, or you can automate cut list folder naming.

To set automatic cut list folder names based on the DESCRIPTION property, click Options (Standard toolbar) or Tools > Options . On the Document Properties tab, click Weldments and select Rename cut list folders with Description property value.

For weldments created with earlier versions of the SOLIDWORKS software, to generate folder names from the DESCRIPTION property, set the Rename cut list folders with Description property value option. Then right-click the cut list and click Update.
