    Transferring image to surfaces

    Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately the logo is a very complex flowery script, so impractical to trace. JeniaL how would I translate the image to a DXF?

    Transferring image to surfaces

    I have been asked by a customer to add their logo to a panel is their some format of graphics file that I can use which will provide an edge curve so that I can use these to create the surface without having to redraw? Thanks.

    Hiding annotations

    Ferdo, Thanks for that have tried both Macros but am getting a message "stating the script entry point entry point could not be found Define a CATMAIN procedure which will be the entry point of the script. What does this mean? should I put something in the brackets at the top of the script? Mark

    Hiding annotations

    Does anyone have a Macro that hides annotation sets in top level assemblies, we are spending a lot of time open sub assemblies in large products to hide the text blocks and general notes, and am hoping someone has created a script that would allow us to do this at the top level product? Thanks...

    Geometric sets vanashing

    Was unable to work out what the issue was but have deleted the cat settings files and it seems to have sorted it. Am wondering if it was down to some data that has come in from UG, whether maybe that would have brought some funny settings with it.

    Geometric sets vanashing

    Can anyone help I have an issue on R18. When I switch from one geometric set to another the data in the previous geometric set vanishes, meaning I am having to do all the work in the original set making the tree a mess. I assume this is something in the settings but having had a hunt through...

    dimension graphic line issues

    Yep Jackk and Fokker70 you are both right, I though seeing as I already have R16 on here that the settings would just copy over. I stand corrected. Thanks for sorting me out.
