Hello Andrey,

I am afraid I cannot upload the model but I can definitely upload the excerpt of the source code.

This source code has been written by following the directions given in tkuse.pdf. I tried running the

source code on plethora of drawings however its returningPRO_TK_E_NOT_FOUND for all.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Shreeshail,

Are the Gtols in the drawing associated with actual models, or are they
just "drawn" in?

Hello Ben,

Aplogies for late reply.The Gtols present in the drawings are coming from the model (instances of the model).

Thanks & Regards,

Hello William,

Apologies for late reply.I am attaching the sample code where the action function is protoyped in the global section withsame arguments as the arguments in the function itself.However its not working ,please point out if I have done anything wrong.

Thanks & Regards,

Shreeshail,
I looked up the API ProMdlGtolVisit() and it states the following:
The function ProMdlGtolVisit() visits geometric tolerances stored in a part, assembly, or drawing. The forms of the visit and filter functions are similar to those of most other visit functions--they receive a ProGtol pointer as input argument to identify the gtol.

But in your last email you said that the gtol data is stored within the instances of the model. In your code you passed a handle to the drawing to the visit function. That's why it's not working. You first need to get a handle to the model that is being used on the drawing. There are several ways of doing this depending on your situation. You can get a model handle by visiting drawing views or by getting the current drawing solid (ProDrawingCurrentsolidGet()).

Patrick,

Thanks a lot for your reply.I worked accordingly & I did manage to find the Gtols.

However the gtol which I found were from models & same were used in the drawing.

But there are cases where there is gtol in the model ,however its not used in the drawing.

My question is,is there any way to figure out if the gtol present in the model is present in the

drawing associated with it ??.

Patrick,

I figured it out we can do this using 'ProAnnotationIsShown'
