Check the macro by @artem here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgRB8YtB4v4 Thanks Deepak! Would it be possible to add a prompt to pop up when running the macro that allowed the user to input these values? That would be exactly what im looking for. The user would click save, be prompted to select a ...

You could set up a simple macro that checks the last number used in the format and adds 1 to it. For example, it could search for the highest number in your project (like XYZ-000-002), then prompt you for the prefix (XYZ-000-) and auto-generate the next number (XYZ-000-003). If you're using Excel o...

Hello friends, Does anyone know of a macro that automates part numbering? It would be awesome to have a macro that selects the next available part number that you could input on the fly that also stores the previous input until changed. For example, I make a new part for project XYZ-000. There are a...

In SW2025 this will be much easier because you can then pattern reference geometry. Attached is a library feature to help automate this a bit in the meantime. Drag the feature into your part, select the top plane or face of the part, then the bottom plane or face, then any plane that runs through th...

Code: Select all

swPackAndGo.IncludeDrawings = True

Where does this line need to be added?

I don't know of a function that can find out which drawing an assembly or part file refers to without opening that assembly or part file. It can be assumed that the drawing has exactly the same name as the assembly or part, and look for such files and, if they exist, copy them. But this is a rather...

Would it be possible to make a version of this that includes the drawings? This would become very useful if so.

Add this IF statement above the highlighted line in your error image. If mCompModelDoc(swChildComp) Is Nothing Then swChildComp.SetSuppression2 swComponentSuppressionState_e.swComponentFullyResolved End If Still sometimes receiving an error on some assemblies, but i'm not sure why. image.png image....

Going with a guess, it could be that a component is lightweight or something unexpected. I'd have to do a bit of testing to figure that out.

@jcapriotti , I updated the file in my previous post with one that seems to work better on assemblies as well. For read-only files, any changes will be skipped (this assumes these files are checked-in and cannot be changed anyway). There is a prompt that asks for permission to open then close files...
