The first of the series 2 books is coming!
The long awaiting continual series of SolidWorks API programming and automation books is finally on it's way. Preperations are being made to free up my time this year so that I can focus on the biggest and best book in the collection so far... Drawing Automation! Yes that's right, the huge topic is going to be covered extensively and with a lot of existing users/customers feedback and comments from the previous book and new suggestions are all being taken into account to produce the first of the Series 2 range.
Series 2 will be on better quality paper, going from wire bound to thermal bound (if all goes well in aquiring the Perfect Binding machine!) and have more content. Supported by the new online site there will also be a new comments and forum specifically for the series 2 books for anyone with issues who wishes to seek help on something they are stuck on, or just wishes to post any modifications or additions they have done from the book.
While the book is still being planned out, now is the time to get your comments and suggestions going, so feel free to comment below on any ideas and suggestions you have for the new book and they will be updated in the list below if approved:
