Now you are faced with attributes and blocks that you can match to scheme elements. You can also delete files you do not wish to import. You can manage the type of drawing (cover page, line diagram, scheme drawing, mixed scheme, or data file) by selecting the drawing and clicking one of the icons. That configuration can then be used at the beginning to quickly repeat an import.

At the end of the process, it will ask you if you would like to save the choices you make into a configuration file. Upon opening the tool you are presented with steps, 7 in all, that will let you define the import. If the DWG file contains symbols, attributes or even title blocks, the wizard tool allows you to associate them with a SOLIDWORKS Electrical title block or symbols. These DWG files can now be supporting documents or scheme drawings using the import DWG tool. With SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic, you can import any file type into the project as a data file, but DWG files offer up a few more options in the Schematic tool. Many times during a project design phase you have reference drawings or past projects that are in another file format that are needed in the current design.
