V5 Drawing custom sheet size 3

[alexlaurenceau]

Hello everyone,
I would like to create a sheet of 36inx100in for our drawings. Does anybody know how to define custom sheet size in the drafting workbench? I tried running in admin mode and access the XML standards but I don't seem to find any parameter for the sheet size.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Alex,
One way is to use a macro..and..
..if you would try this link:

http://www.caav5.com

somewhere deep there you will find references to
"CatPaperSize" and
"CatPaperUser"
Good Luck,
Sincerely,
Mircea

Hello,
easy way to create user specific size for drawing is:
File/Page Setup
In Format field type User36x100 and press TAB-key
then Width and Height fields will activate.

Hi Alex Laurenceau,we can set sheet height and width as Tpale said manually,and we can set itz format by macro also as Alex said:

macro is like this

Set DrawingDocument1 = CATIA.ActiveDocument

Set DrawingSheets1 = DrawingDocument1.Sheets

Set DrawingSheet1 = DrawingSheets1.Item("Sheet.1&quot

DrawingSheet1.PaperSize = CatPaperUser
DrawingSheet1.SetPaperHeight 800mm
DrawingSheet1.SetPaperWidth 1150mm

Hope it works for u

bye
Naveen
