    CATIA MACRO: Measuring minimum and maximum distance between geometric elements

    Hey yall, It seems that the measure between tool is not doable with macro, if I may ask : How do you measure min and max distances between two geometric features, a point and a line for expl?

    CATIA MACRO: Formula using Parameters.GetNameToUseInRelation() and arithmetic operations

    Hello, I am trying to create a formula using this line: Set Formula = part.Relations.CreateFormula("X(Central_Cpt)", "", CentralCpt.x, Parameters.GetNameToUseInRelation(RX) & "-" & Parameters.GetNameToUseInRelation(dxCI) & "-20") when RX = 10 and dxCI = 5, the result is not 10-5-20=-15, rather...

    NX Journal: Offset of a rough surface

    Hello, I am not familiar with NX nor with journaling. I've done some research and I found out about the partial result for offset which make it possible to offset surfaces that cannot be offseted normally if the offset value is relatively large. I just want to make sure I can use this feature to...

    CATIA MACRO: Update Diagnosis window

    Hey there, I have a macro that offsets many surfaces using a loop, some of these surfaces cannot be offsetted, thus, this window shows up. Is there a way I can inactivate the offset in this case. I kno the inactivate method, but I don't know the if condition I shall use.

    CATIA MACRO: Surface Simplification /Smoothening

    Hello guys, is there a way to smoothen or simplify a complex surface using macros?

    CATIA MACRO: Please select the surface you want to ...

    Hello, does anyone know if it is possible doing macros to ask the user to select the element, let it be a surface for expl, so the macro can offset it or something?

    CATIA MACRO: create a new point from a reference point

    Hello yall, I try to create a new point from a reference point using AddNewPointCoordWithReference but it doesn't work, and I think it's because the reference point A is in part1, while the new point B is in part2. I tried AddNewPointDatum but it seems to be the same problem. How can I do this...

    CATIA MACRO: Variable Offset

    Hello, let the yellow arc be the surface I want to offset, and the red box be the limit (cannot be modified). Is it possible to offset the arc with a constant default value, and decrease it locally in order to get a variant offset something like the pink shape. Is there a way to do so using...

    CATIA MACRO: Offset of multiple Surfaces

    That's not a question but rather a contribution (hope I am not giving the wrong solution). Many people encounter problems when working on multiple surfaces such as in: thread560-469264 The solution that worked for me is to create a selection of surfaces I want to offset using search method...

    CATIA MACRO: Section view from a plane reference

    Hello, I am trying to do a section view from a reference plane (let's say x=3) by using a macro. I can already do this using Insertion/Annotations/Views annotation Planes. Then placing it in drawing using Views/Projections/from 3D. I've tried to record the macro; but didn't work (not sure if...
