Centermark for Punches

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

I think i have found an issue with the "Automated Centerlines", in generating center marks for punch centers.

I had written a code that sets te centermarks for the assemblies and parts in a Drawing:

Private Sub clickme()
Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument
    Set oDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

        Dim temp As AutomatedCenterlineSettings

        Dim sheet_ As Sheet
        Set sheet_ = oDoc.ActiveSheet
        Dim view_ As DrawingView
        Dim center_m As Centermark
        Dim center_l As Centerline

        For Each view_ In sheet_.DrawingViews
            Call view_.GetAutomatedCenterlineSettings(temp)
            temp.ProjectionNormalAxis = True
			temp.ApplyToCylinders = True
			temp.ApplyToHoles = True
			temp.ApplyToPunches = True
            temp.ArcAngleThreshold = 3.14 
            Call view_.SetAutomatedCenterlineSettings(temp)
        Next
       
End Sub

 What i observed was, that, after this block of code was executed, the centermarks were created, but for slot features (created using punch tool), that were a pattern , a single vertical centerline common to the n-slots was generated instead of the individual centermarks.

The inconvenience that this creates is when the centerline thus created overshoots way beyond the view and in my case overshot and interfered with the top view.

I could find a workaround to this, by deselecting the "apply to rectangular pattern" under automated centerline settings manually for the views, and both the horizontal and vertical marks on the punches were centermarks.

Is this by design? 

I'm using inventor version 2013.
