    Anyone Running CATIA V5R17 and SmarTeam V5R14

    Thanks for the reply with some valid questions. Actually Dassault is the one recommending the move to 17 because of numerous bugs in R15 Equipment & Systems… specifically a known bug calculating lengths when reporting from Structure Design. I always forget to clarify that we are running the...

    CATIA Structure Design Thread

    Hi amdsoo, You were right… the reports in R17sp2 are working fine. Length and weight displays in the reports correctly. However, if I use CNEXT as my project file the weight calculates correctly. If I point to our PROJECT.XML file and use our catalog of steel beams the weight doesn’t calculate...

    I looked around for this code for a few days and just found it in the CAA V5 Visual Basic help file. This code in a macro will insert a graphic image into a drawing format. Simply change c:\tmp\ball.bmp to the path of your image. Works with any image format supported by CATIA. The 100., 50. is x...
