Macros - Google Drive

Sharing a bunch of Solidworks Macros that I've developed recently! Hopefully y'all enjoy them as much as I do. See google drive link for download

Summary:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ZoomFitAllSheets - Author: THS

Macro that scrolls through all sheets of an active drawing, 

and uses the zoom fit to sheet command. It then returns to the first sheet.

Useful as a precursor to saving and exiting a drawing, 

especially drawings with many sheets. If a part or assembly document

is open instead, it zoom fits on an isometric view.



I like to set this macro to a Keyboard shortcut (I use ctrl + spacebar)

for quick use before I save any drawing.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FindDanglingAnns - Author: THS

Macro that searches all sheets in a drawing for dangling annotations.

On each annotation found and prompts the user to either find the next

annotation or stop at the current one to fix it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RemoveBrokenCenterMarks - Author: THS

Macro that removes all broken/dangling center marks from a selected drawing view.

Useful when a hole pattern or part changes, leaving numerous broken center

marks that need to be removed, while keeping other annotations.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BalloonChecker- Author: THS

Scrolls through all sheets of an open drawing. Looks for the BOM table

and determines the number of BOM items, then collects all BOM Balloons,

and sends the user a message if there are any items missing balloons

or if they are all accounted for.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

McMaster Import

Removes appearances, and threads from a mcmaster part to simplify it

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change Image Quality

Reduces image quality of an assembly and all components to improve performance (to a user-specified level). Note all components must be checked out for this to work
