SW 2013 SP4.0
Hello
I think I've already seen this but I don't know how to do it:
I want a message (preferably clearly visible in large and color) in the graphic area when opening an assembly. (these messages would be of the type: Warning! Don't forget to update the excel sheet when editing this assembly). Of course I don't want this message to be visible on my drawings. They will just serve as a warning to the user.
Has anyone ever seen this?
Thank you
Hello
If you have a myCADtools subscription, you can use CustomToolbar.
You enable events in the CustomToolbar options
Then you add a macro type in your toolbar (see at the bottom the code to paste in a macro editor)
You check: FileOpenPostNotify in SolidWorks.
Macro:
**
Dim swApp As SldWorks.SldWorks
Dim Part As SldWorks.ModelDoc2
Dim boolstatus As Boolean
Dim longstatus As Long, longwarnings As Long
Sub main()
Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc
If Part.GetType = swDocumentTypes_e.swDocASSEMBLY Then
MsgBox "it's an assembly"
End If
End Sub
**
Customize the messagebox to your liking.
A+

Hello.
It seems to me that I did it at one time by integrating a text into a sketch but without making it a function afterwards.
It's not great, if your room is not in the right way you can't see anything, but hey, you need better..
