macro to update cut list
i'm trying to use the following to force an update to the cutlist of a weldment with no success.
any body else have code to manually update the cut list?
description
this method updates an automatically generated cut list.
syntax (ole automation)
retval = bodyfolder.updatecutlist ()
output (variant_bool) retval true to update an automatically generated cut list, false to not or false because the document does not contain an automatically generated cut list
thanks
dim mybodyfolder as bodyfolder = nothing
dim mysubfeature as feature = mydoc.firstfeature
do while not myfeature is nothing
if myfeature.gettypename2 = "solidbodyfolder" then
mybodyfolder = myfeature.getspecificfeature2
if mybodyfolder.updatecutlist then
exit do
end if
end if
myfeature = myfeature.getnextfeature
loop
--john
