V5 Drawing custom sheet size
V5 Drawing custom sheet size
(OP)
Hello everyone,
I would like to create a sheet of 36inx100in for our drawings. Does anybody know how to define custom sheet size in the drafting workbench? I tried running in admin mode and access the XML standards but I don't seem to find any parameter for the sheet size.
Thanks in advance.

RE: V5 Drawing custom sheet size
One way is to use a macro..and..
..if you would try this link:
http://www.caav5.com
somewhere deep there you will find references to
"CatPaperSize" and
"CatPaperUser"
Good Luck,
Sincerely,

RE: V5 Drawing custom sheet size
easy way to create user specific size for drawing is:
File/Page Setup
In Format field type User36x100 and press TAB-key
then Width and Height fields will activate.

RE: V5 Drawing custom sheet size
macro is like this
Set DrawingDocument1 = CATIA.ActiveDocument
Set DrawingSheets1 = DrawingDocument1.Sheets
Set DrawingSheet1 = DrawingSheets1.Item("Sheet.1")
DrawingSheet1.PaperSize = CatPaperUser
DrawingSheet1.SetPaperHeight 800mm
DrawingSheet1.SetPaperWidth 1150mm
Hope it works for u
bye
