Raster mode visualization "shading"

[AlvaroPers]

I quote here a post with an unsolved question, at least for me.
thread560-460083

Does anyone knows how to change the raster mode option to "shading" programmatically?

Thanks,
Al.

Hi AlvaroPers.

Try this.

'vba

Option Explicit

Sub CATMain()

    Dim drawDoc As DrawingDocument
    Set drawDoc = CATIA.ActiveDocument
    
    Dim targetView As DrawingView
    Set targetView = drawDoc.sheets.ActiveSheet.views.ActiveView
    
    Dim behavior As DrawingViewGenerativeBehavior
    Set behavior = targetView.GenerativeBehavior
    
    behavior.ImageViewMode = CatImageViewMode.catImageModeShadingWithEdges
    
    behavior.Update

End Sub

Hello kantoku,
Thank you for replying,

The only options the generative object offers to me for ImageViewMode are: "catImageModeHRD" and "catImageModeOff"

There is no "catImageModeShadingWithEdges"

Did the code work for you?

Please, let me know,
Thank you

AlvaroPers.

In my environment it shows 6.
Is it a licensing issue? I am using HD2.

 

[AlvaroPers]

Interesting that I just have 3 constants, and you have 6.
I have HD2.
I'm using Visual Basic under Visual Studio 2022. See the attachment.
The namespace is DRAFTINGITF, so it's the same as yours.
I don't know why I don't have the others constantans.
I'm gonna make a try using a different environment and see what happens.

kantoku, What CATIA release are you using?

 

[kantoku]

I am using R2018.
I checked to see if there were any R2015s left and there were only two.
