The release focuses on performance optimization, streamlined workflows, and enhanced collaboration, particularly for large assemblies and complex detailing. The update introduces several highly requested features, such as the Stud Wizard and improved hybrid modeling, aimed at reducing repetitive tasks for designers. Key Performance & Workflow Improvements
: A redesigned graphics pipeline increases frame rates for smoother panning, zooming, and rotating, especially for models with silhouette edges. New Modeling Features
: This mode has been expanded to support almost all drawings, regardless of the version they were saved in, without needing the referenced 3D model files. Users can now add hole tables and standard views directly in Detailing Mode. Search results for solidworks cad 2022 (65)
: Significant quality and performance gains when opening, closing, and saving large assemblies. The Large Design Review mode now allows opening subassemblies in either Lightweight or Resolved mode directly from the top-level assembly.
: Offers more flexibility for placement and rotation, including defining origins numerically via (X, Y, Z) coordinates. User Experience (UX) Enhancements New Modeling Features : This mode has been
: The 'Q' key can be used to momentarily display hidden reference geometry like planes and axes for easier selection during mating or measuring.
: Simulation 2022 solves bonded contacts over 25% faster. Plastics 2022 includes a new injection location advisor and an expanded material database. WHAT'S NEW SOLIDWORKS PDM 2022 The Large Design Review mode now allows opening
: A new native table type allows managing configurations without requiring Microsoft Excel, improving file performance. Data Management & Simulation
