Hello community,
Is it possible to move a feature (feature) to any position in the model tree using Excel VBA?
E.g. the feature "Width" "Length" "Thickness" at the end of the model tree.
What would be the procedure here with Creo 5.0?

Hallo Community,
ist es mit Excel VBA möglich, ein Feature (KE) an eine beliebige Position im Modellbaum zu verschieben ?
Z.b. das Feature "Breite" "Laenge" "Dicke" an das Ende des Modellbaum.
Wie wäre hier die Vorgehensweise mit Creo 5.0 ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi YaroslavSin,
Thank you very much for the example, that was exactly what helped me a lot.
I always looked in the “Features” chapter but couldn’t find “GetFeatureByName()”.
Now I will try how I can find the last feature in the model tree.
I also noticed that there can't be a space in the "name".
GetFeatureByName("Fase 1")
"Chamfer 1" is not found because it contains a space.
gSession.SetConfigOption("regen_failure_handling", "resolve_mode")
Set solidModel = gSession.CurrentModel
Set feat = solidModel.GetFeatureByName("length")
Set aktFeat = solidModel.GetFeatureByName("profil3")
Set reorderOperations = New CpfcFeatureOperations
Set afterFeatOps = feat.CreateReorderAfterOp(aktFeat)
Call reorderOperations.Append(afterFeatOps)
Call solidModel.ExecuteFeatureOps(reorderOperations, Nothing)
Call solidModel.Regenerate(Nothing)
Set gOWindow = gSession.CurrentWindow
goWindow.Activate
goWindow.Repaint
goWindow.Refresh
Call gSession.SetConfigOption("regen_failure_handling", "no_resolve_mode")

Hi YaroslavSin,
vielen Dank für das Beispiel, genau das hat mir sehr geholfen.
Ich hab immer im Kapitel "Features" gesucht, aber kein "GetFeatureByName()" gefunden.
Nun werden ich versuchen, wie ich das letzte Feature im Modellbaum finden kann.
Habe auch festgestellt, dass im "namen" kein Leerzeichen sein darf.
GetFeatureByName("Fase 1")
"Fase 1" wird nicht gefunden, weil ein Leerzeichen enthalten ist.
gSession.SetConfigOption("regen_failure_handling", "resolve_mode")
Set solidModel = gSession.CurrentModel
Set feat = solidModel.GetFeatureByName("laenge")
Set aktFeat = solidModel.GetFeatureByName("profil3")
Set reorderOperations = New CpfcFeatureOperations
Set afterFeatOps = feat.CreateReorderAfterOp(aktFeat)
Call reorderOperations.Append(afterFeatOps)
Call solidModel.ExecuteFeatureOps(reorderOperations, Nothing)
Call solidModel.Regenerate(Nothing)
Set gOWindow = gSession.CurrentWindow
gOWindow.Activate
gOWindow.Repaint
gOWindow.Refresh
Call gSession.SetConfigOption("regen_failure_handling", "no_resolve_mode")
Hello!
I think, not possible to reorder features using VBA API.
But...
You can write a mapkey:
1. Find features by search tool by a name or ID
2. Select founded features
3. Place selected features to the footer
Run this mapkey from VBA
You can use this functions to reorder a feature
IpfcFeature.CreateReorderBeforeOp
IpfcFeature.CreateReorderAfterOp
Hi YaroslavSin,
Thank you very much for your interest and your suggestions.
I have to test the mapkey to see whether “Moving to the End” works.
The possibility of:
IpfcFeature.CreateReorderBeforeOp
IpfcFeature.CreateReorderAfterOp
I've tried it before but failed, you might have. an example ?
And how can I find the feature e.g. "width" in the model tree, in VBA?

Hi YaroslavSin,
vielen Dank für dein Interesse und deine Vorschläge.
Das mit dem Mapkey muss ich mal testen, ob das mit dem "Verschieben an das Ende" funktioniert.
Die Möglichkeit von
IpfcFeature.CreateReorderBeforeOp IpfcFeature.CreateReorderAfterOp
hab ich schon mal probiert bin aber gescheitert, hättest du vlt. ein Beispiel ?
Und wie kann ich das Feature z.B. "Breite" im Modellbaum finden, in VBA ?
Dim model As IpfcModel
Dim component As IpfcFeature
Dim afterComponet As IpfcFeature
Dim reorder As IpfcReorderAfterOperation
Dim featureOperations As CpfcFeatureOperations
model = session.CurrentModel
component = GetFeatureByName("Breite")
afterComponet = GetFeatureByName("Fase 1")
reorderOperations = New CpfcFeatureOperations
reorder = component.CreateReorderAfterOp(afterComponet)
featureOperations.Append(reorder)
model.ExecuteFeatureOps(replaceOperations, Nothing)
You need to think on to how to find a last feature in the tree (at this case is "Fase 1")
And take a look at the post
