How can I resize a drawing from format DIN A1 to DIN A3, including all views?

[julian.toll]

Hello,

I need to write a Powershell script which changes the size of a drawing from A1 to A3.

This is my original test drawing, (in this case sheetsize C):

With these lines I change the sheet size, but the Views remain unaffected:

$doc.ActiveSheet.Size = [Inventor.DrawingSheetSizeEnum]::kA3DrawingSheetSize

$doc.ActiveSheet.Orientation = [Inventor.PageOrientationTypeEnum]::kLandscapePageOrientation

The result is this:

 

Then I loop through all views and try to change their position and scale, in order to have them inside my new, smaller sheet:

for ($i = 1; $i -le $originalSheet.DrawingViews.Count; $i++) {

    try {

        $v = $originalSheet.DrawingViews.Item($i)

        $scale = ($v.Scale / $originalHeight * 28) # 28 = height of A3 Landscape

        $v.Scale = $scale

        $pos = $v.Position  

        $xPos = $($v.Position.X / $originalWidth * 42) # 42 = width of A3 Landscape

        $yPos = $($v.Position.Y / $originalHeight * 28) # 28 = height of A3 Landscape

        [double[]]$coord = @($xPos,$yPos)

        $pos.PutPointData($coord)

        $v.Position = $pos

    }

    catch {

        Write-Host "View Nr. $i : failed"

    }

This is the result:

My sample drawing has 4 drawing views, two of them are projected views.

My problem is, that the projected views keep their distance from their "source-view", so they are outside of my sheet at the end

Does anyone know how I can move all views of any type to the right position?

Thanks in advance
