[MACRO CATIA V5] Offseting Dimension

[jorgenoro]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a macro to style dimensions according some standards.
What I need is to access the marked propertie. I usually go there by right click on the dimension and choose:
Properties -> Value Tab (see image for more detail).

I cant find anywhere that propertie in the V5 Automation file.
Does anyone have a clue?

Thanks!

why do you need a macro for that? it's depends on a standard you use asme/iso or by company standards. run catia in admin mode and change it once and forever

I need it because I can't run CATIA in admin, and in our drawings we need to offset the dimension acc the type.
In a drawing were you have a huge number of dimensions, it would be nice to automate even one single click.

in command line write t:dim* then hit properties and change what you want for all dimensions

Doesn't fit my need. It will select all dimensions, thus giving all the same offset value.
What I want is to create 5 macros total, that styles the selected dimensions. I have 5 types of dimenisons.

Question is, does anyone knows how to set that attribute with VBScript?

seems like google knows nothing about that.
you can combine 5 macros together in one macro. in automation file maybe it's under the Sub MoveValue section
i guess for every type of dimension you can set different offset. if you dont mind you can upload you standard and i'll edit this
