Why to rotate the part? it should be easy just to move the camera.

There is a command called "Reverse View", not sure if it resides by default in a toolbar.
You can find it under View>Command list, or add the command to a new or existing toolbar.

rickyt, thanks.

But Reverse View, it looks only to rotate the part only in Z axis. I need in X axis.

Hi Tiago

Search in the chm help file for "engineering view catscript" and modify it according to your needs. I was interested only in counter iso view . If you need only this, I will post the code.

I had inserted it in a vbscript and it returns an error...

I believe you need to delete # sign.

Ferdo,

I didn't had the need time to see this again. I hope that in the next few days I will have some time to do and try this. But can you share the code that you used in your previous images?

Hi

In the original DS DMUInfEngineeringView.CATScript you need to change code


StdDirection(Custom, Sight, X) = -1./ Sqr(2)
StdDirection(Custom, Sight, Y) = -1./ Sqr(2)
StdDirection(Custom, Sight, Z) = 0.
StdDirection(Custom, Up , X) = 0.
StdDirection(Custom, Up , Y) = 0.
StdDirection(Custom, Up , Z) = 1.

' Engineering view do display
Dim iIndView As Integer

iIndView = Custom ' <==== To be changed on the different macros ====

with this

StdDirection(Custom, Sight, X) = 1./ Sqr(3)
StdDirection(Custom, Sight, Y) = 1./ Sqr(3)
StdDirection(Custom, Sight, Z) = -1./ Sqr(3)
StdDirection(Custom, Up , X) = 1./ Sqr(6)
StdDirection(Custom, Up , Y) = 1./ Sqr(6)
StdDirection(Custom, Up , Z) = 2./ Sqr(6)

' Engineering view do display
Dim iIndView As Integer
'~ iIndView = Custom ' <==== To be changed on the different macros ==== this is original line, you have to change Custom with what you want as DS declare

iIndView = 7 ' <==== To be changed on the different macros ====

Or see if CATIA.StartCommand ("ReverseView") is more suitable for you.

Thank you, Ferdo!

Is it possible to convert the "Power Input c:ReverseView " in an icon for future use (instead of typing over and over in the Power Input)?

[ferdo]

Yes, use Customize... and assign an icon to this command or simply drag and drop the command in a toolbar. You can also put a User Alias.

Ferdo,

I did try that, but it doesn't allow me to drag/drop the icon in the toolbar......

Maybe the IT settings doesn't allow that!...



How about the other option (User Alias)? It the first time I see that, can you help me out in this matter, please?
Thanks!
