Very simple Macro problem on Solidworks Drawing

2D plans Layout

Hello

For a while now, I've been trying in vain to perform a very simple task using a Macro button. Unfortunately despite my research, and the use of the Macro recorder, I can't manage to do anything usable:

1 - Select my revision table.

2 - Uncheck the "Attach to anchor point" option

3 - Re-check this option and confirm.

This small macro allows me to rehang my table in the right place when creating a background of a different format (the anchor point changes depending on the format, but the table does not follow and I am forced to do this little maneuver to put it back in its place).

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello

I think that we should open each drawing and edit the background, put the anchor point in each one;   close is re-saved in DRWDOT (drawing).

Sincerely, Manu

Manu is right, in addition, when this operation has been done, you can make a macro to change the background shot at will

Thank you for your feedback,

I had already done this, but the problem occurs when creating a new MEP, when choosing the FDP. If the FDP chosen does not correspond to the format in which the model was saved, the table remains in its initial position (despite the definition of the anchors), which requires the basemap to be reloaded, or to perform the manipulation. above.

Anyway, I solved my problem by assigning a default basemap when creating a new plane (e.g. A3, the most used).

And in this case, the table updates its anchor when the FDP changes.

Thank you anyway for your answers.
