    Ways to export Catia product

    exactly thanks!

    specify a part in product

    finally....it's done I use 'CATIA.SystemService.ExecuteScript' in my macro to call a module thanks anyway

    specify a part in product

    now I decide to execute two macros to complete the task...a little bit tiring but much easier since I don't need to care about the syntax of part,product,document... and I create an icon of Module1, put it in the macro CATIA.StartCommand("Module1") everything goes well when I execute the...

    specify a part in product

    thank you actually it's a module, not macro, I think they are a little different and I only need to deal with the CATProduct, so 'if...then...' is not necessary in a specific part, I want to modify the points in a geometry set in it, by FindObjectByName function by the way, I can't use select...

    specify a part in product

    so you means that Set oPart = oProduct.Search("Name='Part1',all") is that right or..? sorry I know little about the language can you just give me an example or briefly explain how to use this function? and, I really want to know why can't I type like "Set oPart =oProduct.Part" ?

    specify a part in product

    but what's the point? now I try to focus on just a part of a product, but catia shows that the line "Set oPart = oProduct.Part" is worng I don't know if the code behind the line will be the cause of error, I don't think so, thus I didn't post it here. does it matter? anyway, I'll try to make...

    specify a part in product

    hi, I have problem coding the catvba below Dim oDocument As Document Set oDocument = CATIA.ActiveDocument Dim oProduct As Product Set oProduct = oDocument.Product Dim oPart As Part Set oPart = oProduct.Part Dim oPoint As Point Set oPoint = oPart.FindObjectByName(Name) so,how to fix this...

    Modifying the points in geometry set

    okay I'll clarify all things I want to do in my CATpart. first, I import 3 sets of points to catia, then do splines of each set, totally I have 3 point sets, 3 splines, but number of points is uncertain, maybe 35, 40... so I think it is convenient to separate them into 3 geometry sets...

    Modifying the points in geometry set

    your explain is precisely, but I think I didn't clarify my problem after I import the points, I need to create splines and then loft those splines, sometimes I also have commands like scaling or rotate in it, so, if I really create a new a spline, that means the whole part should be done...

    Modifying the points in geometry set

    If someone is willing to give it to me, that's fine, I could save much time. but it's enough if I can get some useful tips here. Some problems I can imagine, first, how to set name of new point, second, how to make a spline based on a whole geometry set, so the spline can be made no matter how...

    Modifying the points in geometry set

    Hi, I have seen the code above, it worked well, and thanks for the movie! Now another problem I meet is that if I want to add or remove some points in the geometry set, how? since not every set has same numbers of points. Can I make it by the changes of the text file? for example I have 100...

    Modifying the points in geometry set

    Hi all, I use GSD to import about 100 points from excel, now I want to modify the coordinates of the points, so I am thinking if I can associate the geometry set to a text or excel, which means I can edit the coordinates by text or excel. What I really need is modifying the coordinates(or...

    Thread display in drawing

    oh,I see. Maybe the true drawing of a worm is a better way. Your suggestion is pretty good. Thanks.

    @hims1980 you're right, that's my point ok, I got it, your opinions are helpful. Thanks, you guys really nice.

    Thread display in drawing

    uh...search what? I know there's a function "thread/tap" in part design, but the worm shaft wasn't made by it, that is why the drawing shows like a 3D projection. catia only changes a product into engineering form when it was made by the function in Drafting, I guess. So, I wonder a way to...

    Thread display in drawing

    Hi, I made a drawing of a worm shaft, but it turned out to be this http://i.imgur.com/hdKkrf5.png I don't want it showed like this, how do I change it to a engineering formation? I have tried some ways searched on the internet, but it didn't work. If anyone knows the problem, plz tell me. Thanks.

    Ways to export Catia product

    Hi, me again. I have tried the 3dxml player, but I only see a solid body in it. I can't edit, or even see the commands in model trees. So, is there any way can export the whole product by catia v5, and the product is able to be modified by others, like parameters? Or should I use something...

    Ways to export Catia product

    Hi, I have some problems with exporting cat files, if I wanna let someone who doesn't have Catia see my product, what kind of file can I export? I mean, the man can still pan, rotate, and zoom in the file, it will be better that if parameters can be changed. Is it possible without the software...
