Creating Parts or Configurations

An administrator can create part files for all listed configurations or add the full list of configurations to the master part file.

Administrators cannot create configurations in SOLIDWORKS Connected.

To create parts or configurations:

  1. From Windows, click Start > All Programs > SOLIDWORKS version > SOLIDWORKS Tools > Toolbox Settings .
  2. Click 2 - Customize Your Hardware.
  3. On the Customize Hardware page, select a single component.
  4. At the upper right of the configuration list, click Import/Export and select either:
    • Create parts
    • Create configurations (Not available in SOLIDWORKS Connected.)
    The option you see depends on the part or configuration option on the User Settings page.
Part files are created in the part folder specified on the User Settings page.
