Weblink and drawing symbol groups

Weblink and drawing symbol groups



I accidentally posted this in the CAD forum...might have more luck
here. 🙂


I have a symbol that I would like to place on a drawing using Weblink. This
symbol has numerous groups. I would like to programmatically select certain
groups before I place the symbol. Looking through the Weblink API
documentation, it appears that Weblink can only show ALL the groups, NONE
of the groups or present a dialog to the user to pick from the available
groups.

Is this the case? Is it possible to select a group? If not, does anyone
have a work around?

I'm trying to work this out using the RunMacro() function as a temporary
work around.


Thank you in advance,



Mike Phillips

Michael,



you can specify which groups should be displayed.

There is an example in the Weblink User?s Guide.

See the second code example ? the function is called ? placeDetailSymbol?.

Thank you Andreas!

You are correct. I gave the example a try and it's going to give me what I
need.

Mike
