SW Configuration Macro Property

Macro
1

Hello

I'm looking for a macro to view and edit the properties of a SOLIDWORKS configuration. More precisely, it is the property that defines the reference in the BOM (Choice between: Document name, configuration name, user-specified name)

Thanks in advance

Hello

Have you tested the macro recorder to see the code that is created when you make the changes by hand?

You can put the code in a text file here for me to look at.

Thank you for this advice but it doesn't seem to give much. We have the same code regardless of the option chosen

Hello

After some research and reflection I found this :

boolstatus = Part.EditConfiguration3("Nom_config", "Nom_config", "", "", 1) =>configuration name

boolstatus = Part.EditConfiguration3("Défaut_m", "Défaut_m", "", "foo", 1) => user-specified name (with foo as the specified name)

boolstatus = Part.EditConfiguration3("Défaut_m", "Défaut_m", "", "", 256) => Document name

So I know how to modify this property, it's a good start but now I would like to be able to read this info but I have no lead for now.

 

Do you know how to do it ?
