Hiding Navigation views in the SolidWorks browser

Not all Navigation views might be appropriate for selection in the SolidWorks browser. You can configure the SolidWorks link to hide such views from users.

To hide Navigation views in the SolidWorks browser:

1. In Configurator, expand Environment in the configuration tree and select Application Link Settings. The settings for each link appear in property pages in the right pane.
2. Click the SolidWorks tab. The SolidWorks link’s settings page appears in the right pane.
3. Click the Edit button to modify the settings.

Tip    To export the settings file to your computer, click the Export button. This can be useful if you would rather edit the file in your favorite text editor. You can then copy your changes to the Clipboard and paste them into Configurator.

4. Locate the HideNavigationViews setting.
5. Edit the value of the setting to include the Navigation views that you want to hide separated by a comma as shown in the following example.

HideNavigationViews=AllToDoLists,StatusPerson

6. Click OK to save your changes.
