Hi
I suppose that it must be pointing in the right place or else I guess it would never work

Hello I use this a lot for my shop drawings. One thing that bugs me is that my custom scales aren't always available when I click on the scale button at the bottom right of the screen but if I simply press on the options gear button and then simply close the options screen I can then see my custom s...

Hello We just installed 2023 sp3 and are having odd results when using pack n go. We often create new assemblies using pack n go and we usually uncheck some components, typically hardware, that we don't want copied but it seems that some unchecked components are still being copied. Anyone else seein...

clic or unclic "normal to" in the extrude function

This workaround works and fits my needs, it's just too bad I wasted a few hours on this when it should have taken a few minutes.
Thanks again

boolstatus = Part.SetUserPreferenceToggle(swUserPreferenceToggle_e.swViewDisplayHideAllTypes, True)

Thanks for your efforts, No more error message but the "bendline" part still doesn't work. This is a new feature and maybe Solidworks didn't quite finish it......

Hi, I get runtime error 449, argument not optional when I try with the .extension.

Hi Mike
They are in the right place since they show up after I click the options ICON.
Is there another "default" file somewhere?

Hi everyone I'm having trouble with this. It doesn't seem to work all the time. I should be able to have access to the different scales I added to that file when I click on the scale value that is on the bottom right of the sreen when in a drawing but they are not there by default. To get them, I ha...

Thank you very much, just what I needed
And thanks to the others who also tried to help, greatly appreciated.

Hi Jerome Thanks for your help, it's very close to what I'm looking for. The macro works for notes that are attached to the sheet, they attached to the "Firstview" but when I try the second option, that is to get all notes from all views, there's no difference. I added a "Debug.Print ...

I'm looking for a simple macro that would attach all notes in a drawing to a single view, in may case "Drawing view1". I played around with (swAttachAnnotationOption_e.swAttachAnnotationOption_View) but since I don't know much about VB I'm not getting anywhere. Help would be greatly apprec...
