Editing Custom Properties To edit custom properties: If the check box at the top of the Link column is selected, clear the box. The Link column applies to parts created in the SOLIDWORKS software version 2018 and later. It links custom properties to the base or parent part. In the table, click the Property Name, Type, or Value / Text Expression that you want to change. Edit as needed. When you define a custom property that includes a single or double quotation mark (‘ or “), type an @ sign in front of the quotation mark to ensure that the expression evaluates correctly. For example: 2@" X 2@" X 1/4@". Press Enter. This modifies the custom properties for the current document only. Edit the global custom properties with the Edit List dialog box.
