thanks,
steph
there are several macros that will allow you to do this. check out
hi stephane,
this is the code i wrote to get the referenced part in a drawing. once you have the part reference you can get at the properties inside that part.
function getmodelfromdrawing(swdraw as drawingdoc) as modeldoc2
'gets the model reference from a drawingdoc
'daniel fortin cc
dim aboolstatus as boolean
dim swselmgr as selectionmgr
dim swsheet as sheet
dim swview as view
dim swapp as sldworks.sldworks
set swapp = application.sldworks
set swselmgr = swdraw.selectionmanager
set swsheet = swdraw.getcurrentsheet
aboolstatus = swdraw.extension.selectbyid2(swsheet.custompropertyview, "drawingview", 0, 0, 0, false, 0, nothing, swselectoptiondefault)
if aboolstatus <> false then
set swview = swselmgr.getselectedobject6(1, -1)
else
set swview = swdraw.getfirstview
set swview = swview.getnextview
end if
set swmodel = swapp.opendoc(swview.getreferencedmodelname, swtypeoffile(swview.getreferencedmodelname))
set getmodelfromdrawing = swmodel
end function
make sure to do a
swdraw.editrebuild
after updating the properties to get the new properties to show up on the drawing!
