Hello everyone,

 

I would like to know if it was possible to get the number of attachment lines in an annotation?

 

(Solidworks 2013)

 

Thank you!

Hello

A priori it is possible with a macro with the statement:

 

GetAttachedEntityCount3 Method (IAnnotation)


Gets the number of entities to which this annotation is attached.

In fact we can get the information by both methods, the one given by Lucas and myself

 

A returns the attachment number =>  GetLeaderCount

the other the number of entities where the annotation => GetAttachedEntityCount3 is attached

which in most cases and the same
