Insert Design Table using API

Insert Design Table using API

Insert Design Table using API

(OP)
Does anyone know how to insert a Design Table into a part using the Solidworks API?  I can Edit an existing Design Table with no problems, but I can't seem to attach a new Design Table to a part that doesn't have one yet.

 

RE: Insert Design Table using API

How about ModelDoc2::InsertFamilyTableNew?

That did it, thanks!  I've been working on that for about 3 hours now...grrrr.  'Family table' must be an old term or something.
 

RE: Insert Design Table using API

There are a few other "old terms" hanging around in the API.  The one that confused me (and others) for a while was that Custom Properties were CustomInfo in the API.  To compound that, when weldments came out they had a CustomPropertyManager that was only for weldments and totally unrelated to file or config. custom properties.
