It was a little tool that suspended all rebuilds until asked
explicitely... On huge parts it was a real great timesaver.
Does sombody knows if something has replaced this?

Thanks

There are some macros around that accomplish the same basic thing, though
they're not nearly as polished as Philippe's), and I don't know where to
find them. I'm still using RedLight. It was a free download, but I'm not
sure redistibution is allowed. Philippe still appears here occasionally,
perhaps he will notice us and chime in.

I did finally find a case where it causes problems, though. If you insert a
library feature while rebuilds are halted, you can get multiple sketches
with the same name. At least, back in 2005. This can cause strangeness when
you need to reference the dimensions in the new sketches.

I installed it on SW2007-64bit - twice.

It is not showing up under Tools/Addins.

Fantastic Philippe!

But it's not showing with SolidWorks 2006 x64 neither.
I'll try with a x86 version later today...

It states it's free, but I don't see a download link. Do I need to go
through all the Pay Pal stuff? How much?

I believe the "Red Light" at the top is the link.

Nope, it just links back to that red light write up.

Ok, after a second look.. How about the box on the right that says
"downloads box"?.

My company has a Internet Block/Usage/Tracking program installed called
"websense" on it's server to prevent improper internet use. It must also
prevent some web pages interface dialogs. I was able to see and download
from the "downloads box" at home. At work, the "downloads box" was not even
shown.

Now it looks like it's making me hiccup! or maybe it's our server.
