Learn Checks Wizard

Use the Learn Checks Wizard to retrieve design checks based on attributes from an existing SOLIDWORKS part, assembly, or drawing document.

1. Open a SOLIDWORKS document and click Learn Checks Wizard (Design Checker toolbar) or Design Checker > Learn Checks Wizard.
   The Task Pane lists all the available check types in the document.
2. Expand each check type and select the checks to include.
3. As you select a check, the current Parameter Name and Value appears. For example:

   Document checks
   Document's Dimension Font Check
   Parameter Name	Value
   Font	Century Gothic
   Font Style	Regular
   Strikeout	No
   Underline	No
   Units	0.0035
   Space	0.001

   Some checks require input. For example, Dimension Checks requires you to select the dimensions to include:

   Dimension Checks
   Dimension's Arrow Style Check
   Parameter Name	Value
   Use Document's Arrow Style	Yes
   1st Arrow Style
   2nd Arrow Style
   Use Document's Arrow Position	Yes
   Arrow Position	Smart

4. If you are using a part document, for example, enter the Edit Sketch mode, select the dimensions to include in this check.
   
   
   The selected dimensions are listed in the middle panel.
   
   
5. Click once you complete all the checks to be learned from the active document.
   The checks are generated, and SOLIDWORKS Design Checker opens with the Dialog View tab active. You can toggle between:

   Dialog View	Shows checks in the requirements document, where you can edit any of the criteria.
   Summary View	Shows a condensed view of the requirements document with parameters and values for each check.

   You cannot edit parameters in the Summary View.
6. Click Save (Standard toolbar) or File > Save.
   The checks are saved as an .swstd file which you can use as a template to check other SOLIDWORKS part, assembly, or drawing documents.
