automation of overload properties of a view

[pravs]

Hi,
can someone tell me how to automate the overload properties of a view as shown in the picture , basically I have to change the overload properties of a specific parts represented in the drawing to a different color , line type , thickness etc.

we used CAA for that... not sure VBA can do it (or maybe with win API if list of parts is populated)

I need this also
I'm starting to realize that Drafting module it is not as exposed for automation as I hoped.

Hi, everyone

In CAA you use CATIGenerSpec::SetUse3DSpec method to specify if properties need to be overloaded.
