Abstract

This paper proposes some practical approaches that are intended to provide Add-In Solid Works applications development. Problem includes two parts: design tree analysis for an existing model, including design history and parametric information; modification of the Solid Works model. The both parts are integrated in one system, based on Solid Works API, COM-interface and special user interface, built into SolidWorks windows.
