SOLIDWORKS 2020 What’s New – Adding a Selection to a Selection Set

New to SOLIDWORKS 2020 you can add to an existing selection set.

To add a selection to a selection set:

Open a model and select multiple items in the FeatureManager design tree or graphic area.

Right-click the selections and click “Save Selection“ then “New Selection Set”

To add an item to an existing set, click Selection-Set#(##)

NOTE: (# indicates the order of creation and ## indicates the number of items in the set.)

Expand Selection Sets from the feature tree to show the selection set.

I hope this part of the What’s New series gives you a better understanding of the new features and functions of SOLIDWORKS 2020. Please check back to the CATI Blog as the CATI Application Engineers will continue to break down many of the new items in SOLIDWORKS 2020.
