An electrical project
includes
supplementary
files
such as documents,
reports, and
images.
You
can add these
files
to the SOLIDWORKS PDM vault control during
check-in.
To
add files,
do
the following:
-
Right-click
the
Files tree and select Add.
- Optional:
In the
Add file export configuration dialog
box,
select
the
Other Object
configuration.
There are 10 configurations available for defining custom
rules.
The
selected
Other Object is added to the
tree.
-
Define a Naming
Rule.
The file name shown in SOLIDWORKS Electrical is its mark
property. If you want the file name in SOLIDWORKS PDM to be the same as you
see it in the design, use the {SWEFILE.Mark} formula. Use
the
formula {SWEFILE.SweNameWithoutExtension}
if you want to use the real file name from the SOLIDWORKS Electrical data
directory.
- Optional:
Specify a
subfolder
name to store files.
-
Define a File
Mask.
A
File Mask filters project files to be
added to the SOLIDWORKS PDM vault. You can use file name wildcards separated by
the pipe character (|) to specify which files to
export.
Avoid scenarios where the same file matches multiple
export rules.
The
app does not support this and the check-in fails.
Example of the configuration used to export all JPEG files:
- Naming
Rule:
{SWEFILE.Mark}
- Sub
folder:
JPEG
- File
Mask:
*.jpg|*.jpeg
