Thanks Sparweb, I appreciate the help and the warning :)

Hi, I'm new(ish) to Inventor having not used it for around 10 years. The model I have has pins placed in a components location holes. The problem I'm having is that there are 4 components each having the location holes in different positions. How can I show these on sperate views without the...

thanks for the replies, For how many sheets there were I just changed them (copy and paste) and altered text where required. I'd like to think there's a reason they don't want a table but probably just being awkward. regards Alan

I have been using a table to add the new revision history. I’ve been told it has to be geometry, ie lines and text. Seems stupid but it is what it is. I was hoping I could ‘explode’ the table ( or something like that) but doesn’t seem possible. So, I’m now looking at a macro to add generic Text...

Morning All, Does anyone know if you can convert a table to geometry in v5? thanks Alan

Sorry, missed a bit out. ---------------------------------------------------------- oHole1.BottomLimit.LimitMode = catOffsetLimit oHole1.BottomLimit.Dimension.Value = oDepth If oDepth = 0 then oHole1.BottomLimit.LimitMode = catUpThruNextLimit oHole1.ThreadSide = catRightThreadSide...

Good morning All, Does anyone know what the call-up is for thread 'Support' depth ? The code below 'kind off' works on blind holes but falls down when the hole depth is 'Up to Next' i've searched the v5Automation but can't find how to change from Dimension to Support...

Much appreciated not my appreciated. :)

Thanks LWolf, Took some messing about and probably looks hideous to you but it works. :) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Set DrwText = DrwTexts.GetItem("Text.227M") 'DRAWING TITLE TextContent = Drwtext.text 'DrawTitle1 = Set in Sheet macro 'DrawTitle3 =...

Thanks Little Cthullu, Unfortuanetly, in this case I needed them to be seperate. The macro adding the third line is run by the person detailing and is linked to the part. The other two lines are completed by the checker who may not have accsess to the models. this one also completes all the...

Hi again, quick question please. Is it possibe to alter individual lines in a text box without deleting the other lines ? eg. if I wanted to add part number to the text box with one macro and tool and assembly with another. Tool number Assembly number Part number thanks in advance for any help

Briliant, thanks rickyt :)

Hi, This is something I had from a while back but you need to run it twice to get the +- 0.1 to be added. Anyone know why ? thanks.. Sub CATMain() Dim documents1 Set documents1 = CATIA.Documents Set Document = CATIA.ActiveDocument Dim selection1 Set selection1 = Document.Selection Set...

Hi All, i'm after a little macro I can run on certain dimensions to save me having to alter the tolerance and type each time. Could anyone give me an example of what needs to go in the line below please. I can't find anything that explaines what each value does. Any example would be really...

Hi All, I've been looking at this for a while. first posted something similar in 2019 nd still haventr found a way round it :). I have to ballon up a pile of assembly drawings with split balloons showing the part number and sheet no it was drawn on. Firstly, I'm having to use text because...

Thanks Weagen22 I’ll take a look.

That worked :) If oScale <> 0 then oScale2 = "NOT TO SCALE" intA = 1 intB = 3 intC = intA/intB If oScale = 1 then oScale2 = "1:1 AND AS NOTED " If oScale = 0.5 then oScale2 = "1:2 AND AS NOTED" If oScale = intC then oScale2 = "1:3 AND AS NOTED" If oScale = 0.2 then oScale2 = "1:5 AND AS NOTED"...

Thanks MarkAF I've tried using this and it works apart from 1:3 Can't get it to do that one no matter how many 3's I use. Maybe trying to use a formula 3 divided by one may work ? If oScale = 1 then oScale2 = "1:1 AND AS NOTED " If oScale = 0.5 then oScale2 = "1:2 AND AS NOTED" If oScale =...

Hi All, I'm stumped again and hoped someone may have a simple solution. I'm trying to auto-populate a drawing sheet. I have managed to get everything I need except the drawing scale. This code gets it but its not in a ratio format. Set at a scale of 10:1 it reports 0.1 Is there a way of...

Thanks itsmyjob, Why can't they expliane it like that in the books :) really appreciated regards Alan
