INTRODUCTION:
RotateViewPro is a simple SolidWorks macro that is based on a recent request 
for help found on the usenet newsgroup "comp.cad.solidworks".  This macro will
rotate a SolidWorks model and create saved views in the model, and/or export 
each view to a JPEG or TIFF file.

User Selections:
	Rotate about 	 	Select rotation about model or screen
	Rotation axis 		Axis to rotate around 
					Model  = up to 3 axis at one time
					Screen = 1 of 2 axis at a time
	Rotation Increment	Select angle for each rotation
				A number of default angles have been loaded 
				in that are divisibles of 360. (Full circle)
	Output Options		* Create named view.
				* Save as JPEG file.
				* Save as TIFF file.
					Note:	Files saved to the directory 
						model was loaded from.
						If the model has not been 
						saved, the creation of JPEG 
						and TIFF files will be 
						disabled.

Named views are formatted as follows:               ???-@### 
Saved files are formatted as follows:     ModelName_???-@### 
	whereas:	??? - Type of rotation ( Mod = Model, Scr = Screen)
			@   - Selected axis of rotation.
			### - Angle of rotation from initial view.

The time necessary to create all of the files is directly proportional to the 
number of images that are to be created.
