Presentations and Drawings and AttributeSets

Anonymous
Not applicable
Are there ANY persistent objects of a presentation document that permit AttributeSets? Parts and assemblies have ComponentDefinition objects that support AttributeSets, but I can't find anything for presentations. On the drawing document side of things, the closest thing I could find to a persistent object that has AttributeSets is a Sheet, but that's easily deleted. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian R.

Not that I know of for presentations. As a workaround, I've attached attributes to the assembly referenced in the presentation file. It would be very helpful if you could add attributes directly to the document object (all types). Neil ----- "Brian Iwaskewycz" wrote in message news:41befbf7_3@newsprd01...

As a workaround, I've attached attributes to the assembly referenced in the presentation file. I considered that initially, but for my application that's not going to work. It would be very helpful if you could add attributes directly to the document object (all types). I thought the same thing when I started working with attributes. Thanks for the reply. Glad (I guess) that I wasn't overlooking something simple. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian R.

I found the same thing, Presentation files do not support Attribute sets. As a workaround, you might be able to save information in Propertysets. You could conceivably create a custom property set that isn't exposed in iProperties. WORD of WARNING, when creating Propertys sets, fill in the optional Unique Identifier. If you don't, you will find unwanted duplicate properties in Vault when you start releasing. Neil Munro wrote: >Not that I know of for presentations.
