Hey Product Hunt — I’m Vladimir, the maker of LinkLattice. I built this because many SOLIDWORKS teams still work without PDM, but they still need to copy, move, and rename files without breaking references. In practice, that often means risky manual work, too much double-checking, and too much time lost trying to keep linked files under control. LinkLattice is my attempt to make that workflow safer and more repeatable from one Windows desktop workspace. What it helps with: • retaining references during copy, move, and rename workflows • searching files from one place • scanning custom properties • running macros on files • giving better visibility into related files before making changes It’s built for CAD admins, designers, and engineering teams working with linked SOLIDWORKS files who want a practical way to work without relying on PDM for everyday file operations. I’d especially love feedback on 2 things: 1. Which file operation causes you the most pain today: copy, move, rename, or search? 2. If you work without PDM, what is the hardest thing to manage reliably? Thanks for checking it out — happy to answer questions and I’d genuinely value direct feedback.
