Ask any designer what the most troublesome aspect of their project plan is and you'll most assuredly hear about time constraints. There's time required for one-off designs. Time required for change documentation. Time required for the myriad of mundane tasks that we all must fit into the schedule. So what about time for the real design work? You know... the stuff we learned in school. The stuff that was so cool that we decided to make it our career. How do we get more of that time? Well, you could ask for an assistant (good luck with that) or you could automate those tedious and time-consuming tasks using SOLIDWORKS Macros.
