Catia V5 release and SP/HF

Catia V5 release and SP/HF

Catia V5 release and SP/HF

(OP)
A while back ago I saw in the Internet an explanation how to show Catia V5 level at left top corner of Cati V5 window. Can't find that today. I run Catia with different environments and I'd like to see what Catia I run.How can I see that info at left top corner right after Catia V5?
I often use remote connection from my laptop this is why I have Catia Home( Remote connection using laptop).

RE: Catia V5 release and SP/HF

CODE --> catvba

Sub CATMain()

CATIA.Caption = "CATIA V" & CATIA.SystemConfiguration.Version & " R" & CATIA.SystemConfiguration.Release & " SP" & CATIA.SystemConfiguration.ServicePack

End Sub

itsmyjob thanks a lot. This is good for one Catia icon. I have several icons with different settings on my desktop.

@ Ferdo Good idea to start Catia using small .exe. I'll try that.

RE: Catia V5 release and SP/HF

so maybe you need to manage your catia env... and have more than just few icon to start catia.

we use custom made application to start catia based on the user options (environment, catia level...)

JeniaL,
If you have the macro that adds the text you want, you can run the macro every time catia starts by adding the -Macro flag to your startup.
Point to the location of your macro after CNEXT.EXE as shown below.

..._b64\code\bin\CATSTART.exe" -run "CNEXT.EXE -macro C:\V5\MACROS\Version.catvbs" ...
