Creating drawings with API
Creating drawings with API
(OP)
I'm looking for some info/links on creating drawings with API. We want to automate the creation of our standard drawings where only are length and positions of cuts relative to the length change.
Our dealer is looking into it but I think you guys know more and are better than he is.
Thanks
P.S. The example he sent us was a simple block with 2 dims. Said he would contact the the API people at SolidWorks. So that will be a couple of weeks before we here anything.

I think a block might be what we want to use then change the block dims or use XX as the value of the dim and update a table a "length" table on the drawing.
