Question 1

In SOLIDWORKS, when you insert a 'Projected View' from an existing drawing view, the new view direction is determined by:

Accepted Answer

The direction you drag relative to the parent view

Answer

Dragging from the parent view in SOLIDWORKS automatically projects the orthographic view in the direction of the drag (up, down, left, or right).

Question 2

Which GD&T symbol controls the total variation of a surface of revolution about a datum axis, combining both circularity and coaxiality errors?

Accepted Answer

Total Runout

Answer

Total Runout measures cumulative variation of an entire surface simultaneously as the part rotates 360° about the datum axis.

Question 3

In a SOLIDWORKS drawing, 'Alternate Position View' is used to:

Accepted Answer

Overlay a phantom-line second position of a moving component on the same view

Answer

Alternate Position View superimposes a second position (shown in phantom lines) on an existing view to illustrate the range of motion of an assembly component.

Question 4

What is the purpose of a 'Datum Target' symbol in GD&T on a SOLIDWORKS drawing?

Accepted Answer

To identify specific points, lines, or areas used to establish a datum for irregular or non-planar surfaces

Answer

Datum Targets designate specific contact points, lines, or areas on a part used to simulate datums, especially for cast or forged irregular surfaces.

Question 5

In SOLIDWORKS drawings, which property link tag inserts the part's file name into a title block annotation automatically?

Accepted Answer

$PRP:"SW-File Name"

Answer

The $PRP:"SW-File Name" custom property link tag automatically pulls the SOLIDWORKS file name into the title block note.
