sketch relations issue

Apr 07, 2006 4 Replies

My solidworks crashed to the desktop yesterday afternoon after trying to insert a feature pallete feature... when i went back into solidworks, my sketch relation box refuses to open up, so i have to manually (right-click) and place my relationships... I thought that it might be a corrupt part that may be making solidworks act funny but i have started new parts and it still wont open up when i select objects... Does any one know of a fix, a switch i gotta flip, or something to get this to come back on? if so, please let me know... thanks...

This is likely a registry glitch. I you know how to use regedit then try the following:

Backup this key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 2006

and then delete it and reboot. This should rebuild the registry folder you deleted and fix the problem.

Use regedit.

I had something similar a year ago, nothing helped until i restarted and did a harddisk scan and repair. windows found the corrupt files and repaired them. in sw the files were ok after that.

good luck.

If you select your two entities, and then click on the middle tab in the tree, does the box show then? If so, then check your setting in Tools/Options/General/Auto-show PropertyManager.
