I would like to see if anyone would be willing to help me write a macro to do the following.
I would have a drawing open with X number of views in it. I would also have a product that the drawing is referenced to open with two or more products within it. The standard naming scheme is:
45XXXXXXXX.CATDrawing (with x views in it)
45XXXXXXXX.CATProduct
->45XXXXXXXXRG01.CATProduct (parts and products within it)
->45XXXXXXXX-001.CATProduct (parts and products within it)
So the idea is for the macro to go through each view, select overload properties, switch to the open product and find the product with the RG in the 11th and 12th position, select it, switch back to the overload properties window, change the line type to (5) phantom, color to light grey, and finish.
Not being a programmer, or at least having very little programming knowledge, I would not even know where to start or how to make this possible.
Would this be possible and would anyone be willing to help me with this? Thank you in advance.
