What’s New in SOLIDWORKS Composer 2026: Smarter Workflows and Enhanced Visual Output

-

 

SOLIDWORKS Composer 2026 enhances technical communication with improved workflow efficiency and visual output quality.
New features include flexible filename templates, support for PNG and TIFF image formats, and multiple export options for videos, making it easier to create clear, professional product documentation and animations.

i)      Filename Template Optionsfor Workshop

The collectionname and collectionindex filename template options are now available in the Views section of the Technical Illustration and High- Resolution Image workshops.

These new keywords make it easier to organize and identify exported files from workshops. The %viewindex% keyword now assigns an accurate, automatic index number for each newly created view, ensuring consistent and logical file naming.

SOLIDWORKS Composer: Filename Template Optionsfor Workshop

Benefit:
This enhancement simplifies file management, improves workflow consistency, and reduces manual effort when creating multiple views or outputs in Composer.


ii)      Multiple Image Formats for Generating Videos

You can now use BMP, PNG, JPEG, and TIFF image formats for animation frames when creating videos in the Video Workshop.

This update provides more flexibility and higher quality when exporting animations, making video generation easier and faster.

You can use these image formats when exporting to MP4, MKV, and FLV video types, which now utilize the x264 library for improved performance and compression efficiency.


SOLIDWORKS Composer: Multiple Image Formats for Generating Videos

Benefit:
Enhanced image format support ensures better control over video quality, file size, and compatibility for technical and marketing visuals.


iii)      PNG and TIFF Image File Formats

You can now use PNG and TIFF image file formats throughout SOLIDWORKS Composer, expanding support for high-quality and versatile image handling.

You can use these formats when:

  • Working with the Texture Workshop.
  • Importing PNG and TIFF files as textures in Composer.
  • Setting viewport backgrounds with image files.
PNG and TIFF Image File Formats

Benefits:

This enhancement improves visual quality, supports transparency, and provides greater flexibility for creating detailed, professional-looking illustrations and presentations.

SOLIDWOKRS TECH TIP - SOLIDWORKS PROPERTY TAB BUILDER

-
Image
The Property Tab Builder is a stand-alone utility that you use to create a customized interface for entering properties into SOLIDWORKS files. Traditionally, designer's use to modify the drawing template to insert custom property such as Description, Part No, Material, it’s a manual method. so, designers have to modify the custom property or metadata on each time, simultaneously BOM creation is also manual which increases a run time and errors in BOM table. It's also delayed the release of entire project. Three ways to create a customized interface for property template. In the SOLIDWORKS software, on the Custom Properties tab in the Task Pane, click Create now. In the SOLIDWORKS software, on the SOLIDWORKS Resources tab of the Task Pane, click Property Tab Builder From the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > SOLIDWORKS version > SOLIDWORKS Tools > Property Tab Builder version. To create the property tab, you will need to first create a new fil...

Confused With Wire/Cable Harnessing? - Harnessing Technology By SolidWorks Electrical

-
Image
SolidWorks Electrical is an intuitive and powerful tool which takes care of wire and cable harness design and create the flattened view with automatic updated BOM/Cut. Engineers need to put more thought into thinks like wire length, bending radius and routing. As wiring harness become increasingly complex and an important part of design we are in need of a powerful tool to ease our design process, this is where SolidWorks Electrical comes into play. Today in Automotive sector there are many more computers and Electronic Control Units used in vehicles today. These ECU are used to control the transmission, and other major devices of the vehicle and they have to be connected via wire harness in order for the system to work What is Wire Harness? The wire harness is compactly bundled wire which plays as the conduit for transmission of control and power signals acting as the “Central Nervous System of a vehicle”. When designing a new product, engineers focus mainly on f...
