    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    I have found a bit of code from the Catia portable script center (Note insertion V2) that I am trying to use but it keeps throwing an error. ReDim objSelFilterType1(0) objSelFilterType1(0) = "AnyObject" sStatus1 = Selection1.IndicateOrSelectElement2D("Select Leader Head Point"...

    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    Bad news sorry. The code I've been given to strip and rebuild is company property. I will only be able to share what I manage to cover by myself, but if I run into any problems I will post them here. Thank you to those who showed interest in this topic!

    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    I've changed to a new script for the basis for this tool. I will ask the team tomorrow if I can share it here or if it is protected under our company asset laws.

    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    Update: I'm currently modifying this script to see if I can call on the generated points and draw a line to them (originally designed to draw a line to traverse the center point of holes and place a point in their centers). If anyone wants to have a crack at it also - here it is: Sub...

    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    Picture 1: a Polyline drawn in 3D with 3D points. Picture 2: Leader with Text added to each point along the chain (Chain priority 1, X-Axis priority 2 and Y-Axis priority 3).

    Macro to add leader with text to selected CATPart/Product points in to a drawing view

    Now, what I'm trying to find a solution for is a macro that can recognise the points in a Polyline in 3D ideally in an active drawing view, or in the 3D part tree (worst case), and either adding a Text with Leader directly to each of them if it's possible, or by generating a new set in 2D points...
