Filling in Custom Property Values on File Creation (2025 FD01)

When you create a part, assembly, or drawing, the interface provides an easier way for you to fill in custom properties for files.

Benefits: This streamlines the workflow by filling in custom properties during file creation.

To fill in custom property values on file creation:
  1. Click New (Standard toolbar) or File > New.
  2. In the New SOLIDWORKS Document dialog box, click Advanced.
    In Tools > Options > System Options > Default Templates, you can change the Default Templates to the 3DEXPERIENCE template so that this workflow also applies to the Novice version of the dialog box.
  3. On the 3DEXPERIENCE tab, under Create new on 3DEXPERIENCE platform, select Part, Assembly, or Drawing.
  4. Click OK.
  5. In the New Part/New Assembly/New Drawing dialog box, on the Properties and Classifications tabs, specify custom properties for the file.
  6. Click Create.

    An empty physical product is created on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
