It features a small file size (relative to full CAD documents) and allows the viewer to view in 3D, mark up, section, and move parts. sldftp): This file type is specific to tools that form sheet metal.

Qxp Part I 3/26/07 3:23 PM Page 14 SolidWorks Basics It is considered best practice to fully define all sketches. However, there are times when this is not practical. When you create freeform shapes, generally through the use of splines, these shapes cannot easily be fully defined, and even if they are fully defined, the extra dimensions are usually meaningless, because it is impractical to dimension splines on manufacturing drawings. 11 The fully defined sketch cannot be dragged, and there are no degrees of freedom.

In general, when I talk about modeling, I am talking about solid modeling, although SolidWorks also has a complete complement of surfacing tools. I will discuss the distinction between solid and surface modeling in a later chapter. 1 lists some of the most common features that are found in SolidWorks, and classifies them according to whether they always require a sketch, a sketch is optional, or they never require a sketch. 1 Simple extruded and revolved features While the bulk of this book focuses on the use of solid features, I believe that no set of modeling tools is complete without surface-modeling functions.
