    Macro to Create capture

    Does any one have a macro that creates a capture? I can get the capture to create (using info from the .chm) but I think I need to create a camera to set the view and I couldn't figure out how you assign the view or geosets and annotations to the capture. Any help is appreciated.

    Reorder Features in a Geometric Set Macro

    Is there a way to chronologically reorder features in a geometric set, by number (i.e. change plane.3, plane.2, plane.1 to plane.1, plane.2, plane.3, etc.)? CATIA.StartCommand "Change geometrical Set" will not work for me because using Sendkeys for the "ENTER" key is very unstable.
