Macros

This Macro Will change the sheet format (template) of drawings in a specified folder. Specify the template location, folder to change the sheet format of the drawings, and specify the sheet format (template) name. All that is left is to watch it do all the work for you. Note: This macro will change the scale to 1:1 by default,

Update: I tinkered with the code and managed to make the macro read the existing scale of the sheet, and transfers that to the updated sheet.

Use this macro and icon to create a tool bar button to save the active drawing as a PDF file. I Make an Icon for CreatePDF and I make REVA, REVB, REVC icons to create a PDF with REV title, so not to overwrite the original PDF when a revision is made to a part or assembly. The REV macros are the same macro, just tweaked to add REV"X" to PDF file name.

IT WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY MAKE A NEW REV TITLE EVERYTIME YOU SAVE THE PDF. This in my words would cause chaos.

This is a nifty macro When this macro is executed, it will make a configuration and mirror the part. I deal a lot with creating left and right parts for machines, so this saves me a lot of time. I like this because the configuration is set up to have any changes in the parent configuration to be unsuppressed in the mirror configurations so the mirror configuration will always be up to date.

This macro is nice to have in the macros toolbar to quickly save part or assembly as an eDrawings, instead of going to save as, finding eDrawings file type from the drop down menu, and saving it.

This macro will toggle between "in" or "mm" in an assembly, part, or drawing. Much easier than going into options and switching it manually. This is another macro that has a place on my macros toolbar.
