If you are not familiar with blocks, they are groups of 2D geometry. Native 2D geometry can be blocked within Solid Edge draft or blocks from .dwg can be read into Solid Edge.  1) Open a drawing that has blocks. This may be a native Solid Edge file or something opened from AutoCAD: Blocks: 2) Over in the Library tab, toggle on the "Show Blocks" command:    3) Notice the Block names will be listed under Active Document: 4) We can also select blocks from other drawings and use them in our active document. Select a dft/dwg from the folder above. Notice the preview of the block in the lower window.  CB Network protect is a block on the Circuit Protectors.dft file: 5) Drag and drop the block into...

Solid Edge Tip of the Week November 13 Solid Edge Tip of the Week November 13, 2015 Solid Edge - Document Name Enhancements A lot of times, the information provided to you in the pathfinder can be lacking: This can be improved with the document name formula in the Solid Edge options: Clicking Change brings up the Document Name Formula pop-up: Here you can add text before or after the [Filename] including other properties of that part file: You can add properties like the material, project name, author and many other properties making a glance at the pathfinder much more informative: I hope you found this information useful!

Solid Edge Tip of the Week October 2 Solid Edge Tip of the Week October 2, 2015 Solid Edge - Feature Library In this weeks tip, we will be taking a closer look at the Solid Edge Feature Library.  Not only can the feature library be used to pull in completed parts but also previously created features in Solid Edge.  This is especially useful to help reduce design time when frequently using the same features. A feature library entry may contain any of the following synchronous elements: Features Faces Sketches Planes Coordinate systems Constructions **Note:  You can only place a synchronous feature library member while in the synchronous environment. You can add to the feature library from the Ordered environment.  The only ordered element you can add is a feature.  When placing an ordered feature in the feature library, the attributes for the feature are maintained. A feature library entry cannot contain a mixture of synchronous and ordered element...
