Best practices for organizing macro library
Toolbar+ is a part a free and open-source CAD+ Toolset add-in for SOLIDWORKS which allows organize the macro library in custom toolbars integrated to SOLIDWORKS environment. Add-in also allows to manage multi-user environment by storing the configuration in the centralized location.
Alternatively macro buttons can be created using native SOLIDWORKS functionality. Read Creating macro buttons in SOLIDWORKS toolbars for more information.
Explore this section to find productivity and automation tools which suit your needs.
