AngelSix releases many of their SOLIDWORKS API Macros and Books for free
An older resource for many things related to SOLIDWORKS API is AngelSix. Luke Malpass, founder of AngelSix, has written many SOLDWORKS macros. He has also written a couple of macros books.
As of last year, many of their macros and books are now available for free on fasetto. More info is available on AngelSix’s SOLIDWORKS page. The books apply to SOLIDWORKS 2008 and 2009, but much of the information is still relevant now.
AngelSix is also known for BatchProcess. BatchProcess is available for a 50-day trail.
Another API resource now on AngelSix is SolidDNA, which is a level of API that claims to make SOLIDWORKS API easier to use. Here’s a video tutorial that describes about to use SolidDNA:
As a drafter, mechanical designer and CAD engineer, I've been in the mechanical design field since 1991.
For the first 8 years of my career, I was an AutoCAD professional. I utilized AutoLISP and many other AutoCAD customization features to streamline drafting activities for 6+ drafters and designers. I authored several custom functions, one of which was published in the March 1997 issue of Cadalyst Magazine.
Since 1998, I've been used SolidWorks non-stop. I've worked to utilize the SolidWorks' user environment to simplify drafting and design activities for 20+ engineers. I've created this website to provide current information about SolidWorks from a variety of contributors.
More recently, I am now employed by Dassault Systemes as SOLIDWORKS Sr. Product Definition Manager to improve drawing, annotation and MBD related areas.
