separate document settings components

[Fabrizio-Cuneo]

kind friends,

the problem of the day is as follows:
I need, in about a thousand files, to change within the - Document settings - the distinct structure components from default ad Purchase .
that someone knows, there is a vb tool or application that allows me to do it massively without opening files?? ?

 

[Avoplus]

definitely it is possible to do it away vb; Unfortunately, they are not aware of tools already ready for this purpose, but...

Alternatively, maybe you could create a set, place them (you can place many in one step) and change the type of document from the separate components (with a copy-paste). The only doubt I have is if we're talking about the same property. . .

a question: why do you have to go to "buy"?

I like avoplus answers that can answer all questions by repeating in part the question itself and adding something without ever checking it out.
from the distinct in an axis you can change the file settings from normal to purchased but you have to do it as a choice of the drop-down menu item by item. if the axieme contains a few parts is comfortable but if there are many parts at each variation it is necessary to wait a long time the distinct digest the change.
on similar occasions I found a bit faster to open at the same time in some number of files, then setting shortcuts open the document settings, change the structure for the separate, close window and close files. it is not ideal but I do not know other ways

I'm glad you like them. . .
...on the other hand, not everyone has time to do certain tests in the office or have a "personal copy" at home...

with inventor 2010, I repeat, you can make a copy-paste on the field without having to use the curtain.

What do you say instead of creating a new set, charging us all parts, going to "instruments" and creating this new macro?


sub component_purchase()

dim odoc as documents
set odoc = thisapplication.documents

for i = 1 to odoc.count
odoc.item(i).componentdefinition.bomstructure = kpurchasedbomstructure
next

end

True it works, you can also use the shift or ctrl for multiple selection.

Well done!

You're right, I checked.

what it is not possible to do with the copy and paste and that forces me to change with the curtain once is in the distinct of only parts with the voice "hidden" because as you impose it disappears and cannot be selected to copy it. I have seen that if I use separate model data by setting hidden I can copy but in this case I have to process the various nested assemblies, however it gives me a nice scremata and speeds up the work. Thank you.

I also saw that I can copy the item "hidden" on separate model data, then switch to separate only components select the items I want and paste hidden.
greetings
