When importing a solidworks part file into an analysis, an error message pops up for each dimension that is too long, asking permission to truncate the dimension. For complex parts, this can create a significant burden by clicking through many error messages to simply import the part. A method to allow OS to automatically truncate dimensions without asking would greatly speed up the import process.

Hi John,


Thanks for your post and feedback here! I'll definitely be bringing these thoughts up to our Product Team -- in fact, we have a pre-existing feature request that deals with changing the way error messaging is handled, so I will note down your thoughts on that request. However, there is nothing that we have to announce at this time on that specific topic.


Please let us know if you have any additional thoughts or comments here, and I hope you have a great weekend ahead!
