SOLIDWORKS Drawing Tools Professional
CSWPA-DT is one of the five advanced CSWPA exams, focused on the SOLIDWORKS drawing environment. It is a hands-on, 100-minute exam requiring a 75% passing grade, with a mandatory 14-day wait between attempts and SOLIDWORKS 2019 or newer required. Tasks span drawing views, section views, BOM tables, balloons, annotations, GD&T, templates, and sheet formats.

1In a SOLIDWORKS drawing, which view type is created by drawing a line that is not horizontal or vertical to reveal the true shape of a feature on an inclined face?
A.Detail view
B.Projected view
C.Auxiliary view
D.Crop view
Explanation: An auxiliary view is projected perpendicular to a selected reference edge or line, so it shows the true size and shape of features on an inclined or angled face. You create it with the Auxiliary View tool by selecting a non-orthogonal edge.
2When you create a Section View in SOLIDWORKS by sketching a single straight section line through a part view, what is produced?
A.A half section view showing only one quarter of the part
B.A full section view showing the part cut completely across the cutting plane
C.A removed section view detached from the drawing
D.A broken-out section limited to a sketched profile
Explanation: A single straight section line in the Section View tool creates a full section, cutting the model completely along that plane and showing the interior with hatching. The arrows indicate the viewing direction of the resulting section.
3To create a Broken-out Section view in SOLIDWORKS, which sketch entity and additional input are required?
A.An open centerline plus an angle
B.A single point plus a radius
C.Two parallel lines plus a section label
D.A closed spline (or other closed profile) plus a depth value or reference
Explanation: A broken-out section removes material inside a closed profile, typically a spline, to expose internal geometry. SOLIDWORKS then asks for a depth, defined either by a numeric value or by selecting a model edge or geometry to cut to.
4A Detail View in a SOLIDWORKS drawing is created by which action?
A.Selecting two reference edges and a scale
B.Sketching a circle (or closed profile) around the area to enlarge in a parent view
C.Dragging a projected view from the parent view
D.Choosing a model face and the Relative To Model command
Explanation: The Detail View tool requires a closed profile, by default a circle, drawn around the region of interest in a parent view. SOLIDWORKS then generates an enlarged view of that area at an independent scale with a detail label.
5Which SOLIDWORKS view tool lets you superimpose a configuration of a part or assembly onto an existing view to show a different position (such as an open and closed state)?
A.Auxiliary View
B.Alternate Position View
C.Crop View
D.Empty View
Explanation: Alternate Position View overlays a selected configuration on an existing view, drawn in phantom (double-dash) lines, to show a mechanism in a second position. It is commonly used to depict motion limits such as a lever's travel.
6What does the Relative To Model view command in a SOLIDWORKS drawing allow you to do?
A.Crop a view to a sketched boundary
B.Break a long view to shorten the drawing
C.Define a custom view orientation by selecting two model faces or planes to set as the front and top directions
D.Insert a bill of materials linked to the model
Explanation: Relative To Model lets you orient a view by picking two model faces or planes and assigning each a standard direction (e.g., front and top). This is useful when a default standard view does not present the part the way you need it.
7A Break View (broken view) is most appropriately used in a SOLIDWORKS drawing to:
A.Cut a part open to show internal features
B.Shorten the display of a long, uniform-section part so it fits on the sheet at a larger scale
C.Enlarge a small feature for clarity
D.Reposition a component to a second location
Explanation: Break View inserts break lines that remove a length of a long, prismatic part (such as a shaft or beam) so the remaining ends can be drawn at a larger, readable scale. Dimensions across the break still report the true model length.
8In SOLIDWORKS, dimensions inserted automatically with Model Items differ from manually added Smart Dimensions in that Model Items dimensions are:
A.Reference (driven) dimensions that cannot affect the model
B.Always shown in a different color and never editable
C.Driving dimensions imported from the part/feature definition that update the model if changed
D.Limited to the first sheet of a drawing
Explanation: Model Items imports the actual feature and sketch dimensions used to build the model, so they are driving dimensions. Changing one in the drawing changes the model, unlike reference dimensions which only report values.
9When you insert Model Items into a drawing and choose the destination as 'Entire model' with 'Import items into all views' enabled, SOLIDWORKS will:
A.Place every dimension only in the front view
B.Create reference dimensions exclusively
C.Delete existing manual dimensions first
D.Distribute model dimensions and annotations across all drawing views, placing each in the most appropriate view
Explanation: With 'Entire model' and 'Import items into all views,' SOLIDWORKS spreads the imported dimensions and annotations across the views, assigning each to the view where it is most clearly shown. You can then drag dimensions between views as needed.
10Which tool quickly applies a consistent dimensioning scheme (such as baseline or ordinate-style spacing) to a group of selected dimensions in a SOLIDWORKS drawing?
A.Smart Dimension only
B.Hole Callout
C.Auto Arrange Dimensions / DimXpert tools in the drawing
D.Datum Feature
Explanation: SOLIDWORKS provides automatic dimension arrangement (and drawing DimXpert) that spaces and aligns selected dimensions consistently, reducing manual cleanup. This keeps gaps uniform and avoids overlapping leaders.
