Question

Windchill - Solidworks - workspace: where are my exported STL and PDF files?

Using Solidworks, I opened a CAD file in my workspace.

I 'saved as' STL and PDF files, closed SW, but cannot see my files in workspace.

Where are these stored, I need to attach these to an email and want to have access to these. Is there a filter preventing me from seeing them?

As far as I can see the STL is stored only in the local workspace but not recognized by the WWGM (serversided workspace).

Hi Gerard,

When SolidWorks is registered in Windchill Workgroup Manager, it saves all the files to active workspace location. In Save As, below types are supported in WGM connected mode.

If you are using 10.2 & higher version of Windchill Workgroup Manager, then you can find those files locally at default location similar in your system. But these two file types are currently not managed by Windchill Workgroup Manager.
