Macro Tips for Multi-sheet Drawing with Predefined Views

A known limitation within the SOLIDWORKS drawing environment, is the ability to have predefined views populate on multiple drawing sheets.

All predefined views on inactive sheets will remain empty or unpopulated. In this video tutorial, we show step-by-step how easy it is to create a simple macro that will defeat this limitation. The result is a single button click that automatically creates a drawing for an open part, using a prespecified multi-sheet drawing template with predefined views. #solidworkstutorial
