Do you know, that… ?

There are formal and informal shortcuts in SOLIDWORKS. The former include those described in Customize > Keyboard and there are dozens of them in total.

I'm going to show you some lesser-known shortcuts today, that can be used when adding sketch relations.

results in loading the equation or global variable into the design table:

• Alt + P – sets the line horizontally
• Alt + Y – sets the line vertical
• Alt + G – aligns the segments in parallel

• Alt + C – sets circles/arcs tangentially
• Alt + R – aligns circles/arcs co-radially
• Alt + K – aligns circles/arcs concentrically

• Alt + W – sets the lines collinear
• Alt + N – adds constant relations
