script to analyze draft angle on the spot as "annotation"?

script to analyze draft angle on the spot as "annotation"?

script to analyze draft angle on the spot as "annotation"?

(OP)
Hi,

I have seen a tool in CATIA v5 that worked as a draft analysis. Of course I know about the regular Out-Of-The-Box-Draft-Analysis but this programmed tool was really neat.

Once I selected the tool I only had to select draft/tooling direction and then I could click around anywhere on the geometry and the program made a little point with text with the draft value on that spot. Then I could click around the geometry and get how many of these draft annotations that I would like. When I closed the tool, all the annotations disapeared.

But it was impossible to open the script or vb so I couldn´t see the code..

Anyone?

To get information about a draft angle in i regular messagebox is probably not that superhard but how could I prompt it on the geometry as an "annotation"??

With best regards from
jowr
