This is why I don\u2019t upgrade! This newer version just isn\u2019t as stable as the old one. I never used to get these errors before. Now everything is blowing up! Updating to the Latest SOLIDWORKS Release Broke my Part! (Cut to keyboard and\/or mouse being thrown across the room with wide-eyed coworkers)<\/p>\n<h2>Deep Breath<\/h2>\n<p>Ok. Pick up the keyboard and or mouse that is now in bits strewn across the floor. Don\u2019t make eye-contact with your co-workers, it\u2019ll only increase the awkward tension in the room. Get a cup of coffee and take a breather. Everything isn\u2019t going to come crashing down, I promise. Once you\u2019re fully caffeinated let\u2019s talk about what happened to cause this RIDICULOUS BREAKDOWN JUST BECAUSE SOLIDWORKS WANTS TO MESS WITH THE #*$@&amp;^+ CODE AGAIN AND WASTE MY TIME! I\u2019M ALREADY BEHIND SCHEDULE! \u2026 what did I say? Deep breath.<\/p>\n<h2>Truth Hurts<\/h2>\n<p>Relaxed now? \u2026 Ok, let\u2019s change that. Likely, if the part worked fine in a previous year with no errors and you\u2019ve now saved THAT SAME PART in a newer release of SOLIDWORKS and it has errors, it has nothing to do with any code changes that SOLIDWORKS has made in the newer release. Raging again? Stick with me. By saving in the latest version of SOLIDWORKS, you think SOLIDWORKS Release Broke my Part, but instead you uncovered a problem that existed in your part in the prior release the whole time.<\/p>\n<h2>Conversion Process to Newer Versions<\/h2>\n<p>So, what actually happens during the conversion process to a newer year? When does it happen? What uses the \u2018new code\u2019? When you\u2019re using a newer version of SOLIDWORKS to open an older version of a part, you see the save icon warns you a file that needs to be saved in the current year.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189239\" style=\"width: 138px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189239\" class=\"wp-image-189239 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-001.png\" alt=\"Needs Converted Save Icon\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189239\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Needs Converted Save Icon<\/p><\/div>\n<p>When you select this, SOLIDWORKS saves to the latest version AND SOLIDWORKS performs an Advanced Body check.<\/p>\n<h2>Advanced Body Check<\/h2>\n<p>What\u2019s an Advanced Body Check? An Advanced Body Check is a validation that the geometry is a good watertight solid model. This check ensures there are no invalid faces or edges. You can run this check at any time as well through Tools &gt; Evaluate &gt; Check Entity.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189240\" style=\"width: 338px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189240\" class=\"wp-image-189240 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-002.png\" alt=\"Check Entity\" width=\"328\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-002.png 468w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-002-259x300.png 259w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 328px) 100vw, 328px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189240\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Check Entity<\/p><\/div>\n<p>But if you didn\u2019t run the Check Entity, how does SOLIDWORKS know to check the geometry? How can I set up SOLIDWORKS to consistently run body checks? To understand that we look at what option is automatically on during the save process when saving to a new version.<\/p>\n<h2>Verification on Rebuild<\/h2>\n<p>In System Options &gt; Performance, there is an option that is OFF by default. \u2018Verification on Rebuild\u2019 is off by default. This is intentional because \u2018Verification on Rebuild\u2019 checks all the geometry for consistency during every rebuild, which for most cases would be unnecessary computation time.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189241\" style=\"width: 553px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189241\" class=\"wp-image-189241 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-003.png\" alt=\"Verification on Rebuild\" width=\"543\" height=\"459\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-003.png 945w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-003-300x253.png 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-003-768x649.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 543px) 100vw, 543px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189241\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Verification on Rebuild<\/p><\/div>\n<p>You see the errors in the newer version of SOLIDWORKS with the prior year\u2019s version if this option was on.

It has to do with what SOLIDWORKS checks if a feature is possible to create. When a new feature is created, SOLIDWORKS checks if the newly created faces and adjacent faces are valid. Let\u2019s say I have a simple shelled part like the following.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189243\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189243\" class=\"wp-image-189243 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-004-300x121.png\" alt=\"Simple Model\" width=\"300\" height=\"121\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-004-300x121.png 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-004-1024x412.png 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-004-768x309.png 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-004.png 1238w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189243\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Simple Model<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Then I add a fillet to the bottom edge outside edge as shown below.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189244\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189244\" class=\"wp-image-189244 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-005-300x139.png\" alt=\"Funky Model\" width=\"300\" height=\"139\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-005-300x139.png 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-005-1024x475.png 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-005-768x356.png 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-005.png 1061w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189244\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Funky Model<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Looks weird right?

We may go months or years before finding error. And often times the SOLIDWORKS Update takes the blame, when the problem\u2019s been there all along.<\/p>\n<h2>New Feature Coding<\/h2>\n<p>As a last side note, it\u2019s important to understand how any new feature coding is applied when new releases occur. When a feature\u2019s coding is improved from year to year, it&#8217;s done for any number of reasons. Changes to any given feature help improve stability, performance, and functionality. But the beauty of SOLIDWORKS is that coding changes are not immediately applied to every feature that\u2019s changed. If that were the case, updates to newer versions would take much longer, you could have issues with parts that you have no intention of changing, or you could have to deal with unnecessary bugs that are resolved from one service pack to the next all the time.<\/p>\n<p>The only time SOLIDWORKS uses newer feature coding on an older feature is when that feature is edited. To clarify, during the save process to the latest version of SOLIDWORKS, SOLIDWORKS only does the body checking mentioned previously, it does not update any feature coding. So, there are times where a part is saved in the latest version of SOLIDWORKS, an edit is made to a feature and the part \u2018breaks\u2019. To see if this is the case, right-click on a feature in the design tree, select \u2018Feature Properties\u2019, and look at the \u2019Date Created\u2019 and \u2018Last Modified\u2019.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_189248\" style=\"width: 546px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189248\" class=\"wp-image-189248 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.cati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-009.png\" alt=\"Feature Date Creation\" width=\"536\" height=\"322\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-009.png 733w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Updating-to-the-Latest-SOLIDWORKS-Release-Broke-my-Part-009-300x180.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 536px) 100vw, 536px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-189248\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Feature Date Creation<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>I hope this brief outline helps you better understand what\u2019s happening when SOLIDWORKS files are updated. Now you know that upgrading to the latest and greatest version of SOLIDWORKS may not be a case of\u00a0 the SOLIDWORKS Release Broke my Part.
