We propose two modes for reading drawing files, so in this page, you have two independant mappings.
Please refer to Modes for reading drawing files (SLDDRW extension) for more information about the modes.

Other Entities

SOLIDWORKS Entity	DATAKIT Class	Remarks
Block	Dtk_CompositeEntity
OLE Object	Dtk_OLEObject	The preview of the OLE Object can be retrieved and given as a Dtk_Picture in the same Dtk_View. Those preview Dtk_Picture are marked with an attribute "Dtk_FromOLEObject" in their Dtk_Info. If you use Dtk_OLEObject, consider using the attribute to filter the preview pictures
Picture	Dtk_picture

3D Geometry

SOLIDWORKS Entity	DATAKIT Class	Remarks
Body	Dtk_Body
Projected Body	Set of Dtk_Curve	Those Dtk_Curve can be distinguished by the fact that in their Dtk_Info, they have the attribute "Dtk_From3DGeometry". To gain time you can also avoid the projection using SwReader::SetConfigCreate2dCurvesOf3dGeometryForDrawings( DTK_FALSE );
