Customize Context Sensitive Popup Menus within the Graphics Area [VIDEO]

With every release of SolidWorks, we gain new methods of customizing the user interface to our specific needs – the 2015 release of SolidWorks is no different in this regard.

We can now Customize Context Sensitive Popup Menus / Right-Click Menus within the Graphics Area. This allows us to bring commonly used commands closer to our fingertips while modeling.

I can sum this enhancement with an equation:

Less travel around the graphics area = more productivity for you!

Take a skim through the following video clip to find out how:

For example, adding the Hole Wizard command to the context sensitive pop-up menu makes it easier to add holes to your model. Selecting a face on the model will then show the toolbar with your custom Hole Wizard icon taking you straight into the command without the need to select the tool from the CommandManager or use the “S” key.
