Custom Hyperlink in Drawing

You mean you have a model attribute that you want to use in a link in a drawing? How about a simple macro that reads the model attribute and runs the needed command?

Ok, can your ERP open files like this:

..\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE c:\temp\file.txt

This works as on hyperlink in SW. Otherwise...quite difficult thing to do I guess, but I see that it would be very usefull.

Hi Damian,

How long have you been using M1 with Solidworks? We just purchased M1, and are very happy with it. I've been planning on integrating the two, especially with PDMWorks. Do you have any advice or recommendations on working with them together?

Thanks, Daniel

Damian,

We are in Maine in the US. We manufacture Metal Marking Equipment. If you ever get an answer to your question, please post it here. I'm really interested in making PDMWorks or SolidWorks work with M1. I'm going to take the M1 Customization Class in a couple months, and then work on integrating them together.

Thanks, Daniel
