AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Name And Tooltip Text Of Macro Button
Jan 3, 2012
For several years I've been programming in Inventor and AutoCAD, with VBA. Making macros and creating a button for them in the toolbar of Inventor is no problem. What disturbs me slightly is that the name of the button is the same as the name of the macro. In VBA you can't create functions with spaces in the name. So the name of the toolbar button often looks quite silly.
Is there a way to change the name and the tooltip-text of the toolbar button without loosing the link to the original macro? In AutoCAD this is no problem, but Inventor...

Method to change the font inside the the tooltips generated when you hover over an object?? I have followed the tutorials from the developers specifically lab 6 which uses the point monitor event to append text to the tooltips when the aperture is hovering over an item in autocad. I would like to be able to make certain words bold but so far have not figured out how to do so.

I have an assembly that includes iPart.
For example there are:
C: Part1
C: Part1 Part1-01
C: Part1 Part1-02 ...
C: Part2
C: Part2 Part2-01
C: Part2 Part2-02 ...
I need a macro to make the change in the assembly. You need to replace Part1-04 to Part2-04. Which method should apply for this?

Right click on "drawing resources" and paste your title block there. Now you will have to delete their title block and then activate yours. "

Now i want to run a macro before executing the ribbon button command method. Which display a message box with yes and no . if user click yes command method will executes itself and display wizard for copy files.
If user click no command method will not execute and return. This will allow user to use macro for customizing the file copy process.

BDTableTextColour_v3h.gms
I have attached a free macro to change the text color of cells in a table. Without the macro there is currently no way to select more than one cell and change the text color.
The macro allows the user to either:
click on a table (to select it) and then apply a new color to ALL text in the table; or choose a new color from the macro from, select some cells in a table and then apply that color to the text in those selected cells
Please note in step 2 it is important you choose the new color first and then select the table cells. If you do it the opposite way around, while choosing a colour you will deselect the selected cells and apply color to all of the text in the table.

After starting my previous thread "What formula will work to achieve this result" I decided to post this new thread because I have changed my mind and will now be using the external Excel file that the "Extract Data" creates to do my calculations.
Here's what I would like to do: create a Macro [button] in Excel with the following conditions:
*
Sample of excel spreadsheet:
*
MANUF NoSUB No.DESCRIPTION** UNIT QUANTITY
A123494456TYPE A, XXXX XXX * * * * EA** * * * 45
A423520374YA1AM, XXXXXXXXXX * **EA** * * * 55
A148231375TYPE B, XXXXXXXXX * * * EA** * * * 33
A146151725A1AAM, XXXXXXXXXX * * EA** * * * 67
A135621873TYPE A, XXXXXXXXX * * * EA** * * * 24
1. * * * CONDITION #1:
IF "DESCRIPTION" TAB ["C" COLUMN] CONTAINS "TYPE A" AS PART OF TEXT/DESCRIPTION, TAKE THE "QUANTITY" TAB ["E" COLUMN] SPECIFIED ON THAT PARTICULAR ROW AND DIVIDE IT BY 20, ROUNDED UP TO NEAREST ONE.*
2. * * * CONDITION #2:
IF "DESCRIPTION" ["C" COLUMN] CONTAINS "TYPE B" AS PART OF TEXT/DESCRIPTION, TAKE THE "QUANTITY" SPECIFIED ON THAT PARTICULAR ROW ["E" COLUMN] AND DIVIDE IT BY 10, ROUNDED UP TO NEAREST ONE.
3. * * * AUTOMATICALLY SAVE THE EXCEL FILE AFTER THIS MACRO HAS BEEN UTILIZED.

I have been using the addin "Save Run Macro" to automatically run a macro every time the "Save" button is pressed.
Any of the following questions about "Save Run Macro"?
1] When I protect the macro from viewing (so I can protect my code) "Save Run Macro" does not see the macro.
2] When I save the part for the first time (ipt, iam or idw/dwg) the macro does not run. I always need to run the macro again.

And in the 157 page Macro PDF (really, did it need to be this long? How about an easy-command sheet), it says you can use the key command Ctrl+Shift+R to start recording... Well, that brings up the ruler.
I use Macros a lot in Excel (I record the commands that I want, then tweak in the editor), so I get how they are supposed to work - but I'm no programmer, and without the ability to record, I'm completely handcuffed. This really shouldn't be 1% as difficult as it has been

I have (unfortunately) the necessity to modify into some files (which are used as models) the print style preset.
These files, which are necessary for the realization of electrical diagrams, have inside hundreds of layout.
Each layout set default printing parameters, so as "Laser b/n.pc3," as the paper size "A4" scale "Scale to Fit", and plot style "Schemi.ctb", etc. ..
Is there a way to create a macro (a field unknown to me) or something similar, to automatically change in all the default layout, for example, the printer "Colori.pc3" and the print style in "Schemi_colori.ctb "?

Do you have a macro or Diesel command that would select all text or dimensions in a drawing and delete it automatically. I've seen an LISP command, but I know from a fact that it does not work on LT. By the way, I'm using Autocad LT 2014.

I recently found this lisp routine which changes dimension text from the actual measurement to EQ.
(Defun c:equaldim ()
(setq newdim (entsel "
Select Dimension to Replace
with EQ.:"))
(setq newdimvalue "EQ.")
(command "dimedit" "n" newdimvalue
newdim "")
(princ)
)
I would like to be able to do the same in 2013 LT using a macro. All efforts to write a macro have failed because I don't know what controls the Text Override.
