how this file is created in solidworks?
dear all,
could anyone tell me that how this solidwork part file (which is zipped) is created, i mean the steps to make exactly the same file. a recorded macro or step-by-step document will help a lot.
thanks,
artman
all it is is a simple rectangle with an infinite construction line, extruded 500mm, then 2 curves imported from text files containing x,y,z points (c:\work\marlow_work\farzin\test_stl\upper.txt and c:\work\marlow_work\farzin\test_stl\lower.txt).
a new sketch is then created and the curves projected (converted) onto the sketch, and then a cut extrude feature added to cut through all using that sketch contour.
api wise it is simple enough to do.
why would you want a macro to re-create this file?
luke malpass,
i need to use the macro codes in another program which automatically creates this design, could you please record a macro and send it to me?
thanks for reply,
artman
quick
