SOLIDWORKS Hotkeys

A key that fires blind cannot tell you it did nothing. These ask SOLIDWORKS itself, so the deck knows the difference between done and not available.

What it does

The commands that can fail silently go through the native SOLIDWORKS API instead of the keymap, so the key can check whether the document will accept them.
Hold-mode hover keys: hold to hold Alt over a face, release to lift. Hover commands act on whatever the mouse is over, exactly like the real keys.
Dials for zoom, undo and redo, standard views, and view roll.
The bundled 15-key profile runs 11 pages, with every command already placed.

What you need

Windows 10 or later, Stream Deck software 6.9 or newer, and SOLIDWORKS. Verified against SOLIDWORKS Design Professional for Makers 2026; standard editions share the same default keymap.

Good to know

SOLIDWORKS must be running with a document open; several commands route through SOLIDWORKS' own API and need an active session.

True of every plugin we make

Every key ships with the app's stock default shortcut, and every key is remappable. Type your combination into the property inspector or click Capture and press it once.
Keystrokes go to the active window. The plugin never steals focus or targets a window, so keep the target app in front when you press.
Every command has its own drawn key art, so the deck reads at a glance instead of listing shortcuts.
