SOLIDWORKS® PDM Professional Meets Dark Mode.

Install the add-in

Request the download below and add ConisioDark.CAF to your vault as a PDM add-in in the Administration tool. If your vault is managed by a PDM administrator, coordinate the installation with them.

• SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional 2024 SP0 or later
• Windows Dark Mode enabled on each client

Turn on dark mode in PDM Explorer

Each user right-clicks in PDM Explorer and opens the ConisioDark menu. Under Appearance on this computer, choose Enable dark mode, or Disable until I turn it on to switch it off.

The same menu shows the borrowed license, About, the EULA, and Pricing and activation.

Activate your licenses

When your trial ends, buy one license per user. A PDM administrator right-clicks the ConisioDark add-in in the Administration tool, chooses Manage licenses and clicks Activate licenses. In the Plans and activation window, enter your keys under Already purchased?, one key per line, and click Activate licenses.

• One key provides one seat in the vault.
• The window shows which PDM user and computer holds each seat, when it was borrowed and when it expires.
• Released or disconnected seats become available again within two minutes.
• Client computers need synchronized Windows clocks.

Move or retire keys

To move licenses to another vault or retire them, choose Deactivate licenses from the add-in menu in the Administration tool and select the keys. This stops new borrowing and deactivates the keys with Blue Byte Systems. Existing reservations can take up to two minutes to expire.
