Glad it was helpful!

Great to hear!

You're welcome 😊

Thank you :)

Glad to hear it!

Thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you, I'll try to be slower.

If you want to import STL in existing model, I would recommend first to import it in empty part file, save it as SolidWorks file and then import the SoludWorks file in the one you need.

Do you receice some errors or it's just ignoring the body? Some STL files have a lot of errors and need a lot of work around untill you achieve what you want, but if it's not working at all probably you have Graphic body or Surface, not Mesh body and you must to convert it to mesh body or solid. Graphic body is still one whole body, but not editable.

Hi Jeromehe, it could be because of the version of SolidWorks you use, which one is it? The video is done with SolidWorks for Makers 2023, which has slight differences with SolidWorks Professional 2023, but mostly is corresponding to it as features.

@@DWorkshop I see, I'm using the 2021-2022 student edition.

Hmm, that should work with your version. Would you reach out to me in LinkedIn and send me some screenshots, so I can check what's wrong. www.linkedin.com/in/danutep/

​@@DWorkshop Thanks for helping out! I just update my Solidworks to 2022-2023 and it worked perfectly! They add the new feature to 2022-2023 so the mesh can work with regular geometry now.

Great to hear, thank you for sharing it'll help others too.

(...)Solidworks 2019 SP4

If I'm not wrong mesh editing was introduced in 2020, I think you cannot do all the imports I'm showing in this video, at least not in the same way. Sorry, I can't help more than this.

Hi @SandeepSingh-43 probably you would like to check all of the videos that I have about STL/Mesh. You can find them collected in a playlist here: kzfaq.info/sun/PLdfEJ9NcD36TGUlGpZh8KHKjJRnK_sZ9k

Hi @MrMaks727 it's really easy to do it by yourself: make contour with spline, extrude 1mm and add dome to top and then bottom face and you have a stone pebble. This is the file for you anyway drive.google.com/file/d/1BH7SapwS-U2tLJzdgWjlK6o_bjgifdAS/view?usp=drive_link

Hi 3D Sculptor is a Role in 3DEXPERIENCE platform that gives you access to x-Shape. This is browser and cloud based software and as far as I know there is no such for PC version. Today I played a little with x-Shape, but I'm really new to it.

@@DWorkshop yes, that’s what I heard.. I need an easier push pull software, because solidworks is more technical and the 3d sculptor is more fluent for the creation of organic shapes . Thanks for your answers 😊

@@ilustradsn x-Shape is definitely push and pull software. Do you use Free Form feature in SolidWorks? It's not so easy as x-Shape, but for me does a great job to make flower petals and other organic shapes in SolidWorks.

Hi, Bobby Sanderz. The PC I use to make the videos is a bit old already gaming PC and I would not recommend it as a CAD machine AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor 3.59 GHz, RAM 16GB, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super. What I use for work is Lenovo ThinkPad P15v mobile CAD workstation and it's much better. Important for SW machine is Certified Graphic Card and quality RAM at least 16GB. Most of the problems with SW machines are coming from Graphic Card or its driver. Under this link you can check the performance of different configurations and pick one that fits your needs and budget. All scores are in seconds (lower is better) www.solidworks.com/support/share-your-score/

Yes, this are newer features. But you can check out my video how to become a Champion kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eauaq7eftKmskp8.html and by becoming a Champion you'll have SolidWorks Makers. Soon will be updated video, because since this year minimum certification requirement is CSWP, but the rest still applies as it is.

Hi @FabHay110, Thank you for your comment. It's possible that in your version this functionality is still not supported, but I'll propose you to try a workaround. It works in my version I hope it'll work in yours too, make your SW bodies as you wish to have them, then convert the solid bodies to mesh bodies and combine imported and converted mesh bodies.

Thank you@@DWorkshop , It works partly. But anytime when i try to make a pattern or a swept boss/base the same error occurs. Trying to reconstruct the model. Thank you and thanks for your clear and useful videos.

Hi @FabHay110, try to make pattern of bodies only and swept without merging. I hope it helps. Alternatively try to work with ScanTo3D add-in if you have it. My first video of the ScanTo3D series is here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nJynrNWGv8W4dWw.html, the rest you can find in my STL playlist kzfaq.info/sun/PLdfEJ9NcD36TGUlGpZh8KHKjJRnK_sZ9k

You can set the option in advance in SOLIDWORKS, go to Options - > Import -> Then from the drop down menu for file format choose STL and it will open the same menu. The difference is what you set there will remain and if you need a different type of import, should go the same route and change it again.
