Hello guys,
First of all I am honored to be part of these forum.
Currently I am in pain, as i need to convert 50 Drawings GD&T to 3D annotation in part file.
I need to transfer all GD&T & notes to 3D cad model from Dwg, its hectic work, All I was wondering if there is macro which can help, so i started putting some thoughts on it but all went in vain.
does anyone has tried these ?
I am totaly lost, from how to pick dimensions & convert it 3d text ?, also dxf will not work for me , as I want the text & dimensions should be edited if i change 3D.
Please help, how to & where to start or I am the dumbest [bugeyed]& there is a macro available some place here?

not sure scripting could find the link from generated geometry to 3D in order to connect the GD&T to the proper 3D face. VBA script might be limited in this area, you better look with CAA... I don't know much about CAA so can't say if possible or not.

If you don't need association with 3D then you can export GD&T from drawing like a sketch (the same procedure as for a text).
