    I am in process of creating a  ExportLayout Batch Toolbut but I can't get around this Window.

     

    I am using Autocad VBA.  Any Ideas?

     

    Filedia is set to 0

     

    I note that ExportLayout is in these threads numerous times without a solution for a batch tool.

     

    AC_Window

    So your PC3 file is still set to open the DWF after creation: turn that option off there.

    Then figure out how to do so when you share your VBA with others, after you talk then into downloading and installing the VBA Enabler (you do know there is a good chance VBA ability may disappear at any next version to come, right?).

    The dwf pc3 doesn't seem to have this option for previewing the output. In custom propertiea or elsewhere.

    My error, it's not an option, you are correct.

    Did you share your VBA code in the VBA forum for peer input over there?

    No, as it is not working correctly.

     

    We have our drawings in Inventor dwg (paperspace) and need to send them out in modelspace AutoCAD dwg.  To get this to work would be our best choice for our document control.

    AFAIK that pop-up is not something you can turn off as a variable, someone needs to dig a little deeper to suppress it.

    Again, sorry for going off in a wrong direction with the DWF thing above, I misread your initial post.

    Ths Window is a MS Windows Window.  It can't be closed with Autodesk VBA.
