Modification of table column size and fonts

[VojtaR]

Hello all,

I would like to use a Table from CSV function, but after insertion I would like to modify column sizes of that table.

What I would expect: I select the table --> run the macro --> table modified
In the macro there would be that column 1 should be XXmm size; column 2 XXmm and so on.

Is anyone able to do that? I have tried record macro, but resizing was not recorded.

Thank you in advance

Search for DrawingTable, it has all the methods you need.

Well, thank you for that... if I would be skilled in making macros, that would help, but I have no knowledge in that. I can only modify some macro by try and error. I have not found anything regarding modification of table on this forum... Could you please help, at least how do I modify one column as an example and the rest I can do by myself. I just do not know how to define in drawing and tell macro that it should work with selected table.

Thank you for your time.

Select drawing table and run:

Dim tbl: set tbl = CATIA.ActiveDocument.Selection.Item(1).Value
tbl.SetColumnSize 1. 100 ' column index, size (0 for autosize)
tbl.SetRowSize 1. 100 ' column index, size (0 for autosize)

This is so easy to do manually - why waste your time writing a macro?

Just double-click on the table to edit it, click one of the corners to select the entire table, and choose a different font.

To change column width; double-click on table, right-click to select column and choose SIZE to type in a new width
