Object position on Drawing

[Anonymous]

Hello,

How can I get a Sketched Symbole position on drawing?

I want to positioning one Sketched Symbole if size of sheet is change.

Thank you in advance.

Hi.

I create stitches to help me position my Sketched Symbols (connection point grip). They serve as reference and are linked.

Look at the attachment.

Something like this should do the trick for you:

Option Compare Text

Sub Main()
    Dim oDoc As Document = ThisDoc.Document
    
    For Each oSheet In oDoc.Sheets
        Call MoveSketchedSymbols("BENT PART", 20, 20)
    Next
End Sub

Private oSheet As Sheet

Sub MoveSketchedSymbols(oName As String, oXLoc As Integer, oYLoc As Integer)
    Dim oSketchedSym As SketchedSymbol
	For Each oSketchedSym in oSheet.SketchedSymbols
        If oSketchedSym.Name Like oName Then
            Dim oPt As Point2d = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry.CreatePoint2d(oXLoc, oYLoc)
            oSketchedSym.Position = oPt
        End If
    Next  
End Sub

Thank you the answer.

It was work previously, but I don't want to run it all the time just when it need.

So if the paper size not change the rule is not run.

That's why I want to compare the current position of sketched symbole with the paper size.

Hi,

If you want it to run at a pre-determined time, and not on demand, you will need to use event triggers to decide when it is run.

Also, you can simply program in some checking of the sheet size and move it to the proper location based on sheet size.

Using the programming help, browsing the forms, or using google, you should be able to easily find documentation/samples for this.

Good luck!

Hi,

What I need is two coordinates of Sketched sybole (x and y).

At save if this coordinates are correct to paper size the rule (what is already done) not run.

So I just need two coordinates what I can compare and this will be condition to the run.
