@artem posted dozens of his macros over at:
https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-tools/
These are macros made by a real programmer. So, if he has one listed that does something similar to one I have posted, please take a look at his first. I am not a programmer and even though I've tried in a lot of instances to do things right, I'm just ignorant and plug away at it until I get something that works in most cases. You can be much more confident that the methods and calls Artem uses are more correct and efficient than anything I've come up with.

Re: Artem Taturevych's Macros
I found this awesome macro over there https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-ap ... roperties/. But @artem is there a way to make it copy and link the cutlist props to the config specific props instead of the custom props?
A goal is only a wish until backed by a plan.
Re: Artem Taturevych's Macros
Life is to short. There are so many things I would like to do and get relatively good at and programming of several kinds is one of them.mattpeneguy wrote: ↑Thu May 06, 2021 2:40 pm @artem posted dozens of his macros over at:

Re: Artem Taturevych's Macros
How did you know what I was thinking? I'm in the exact same predicament. I have done a little bit of programming in the past w/ Python, just enough to understand the basics. I would love to learn how to do programming but I have so many others things to do. I am young so maybe in the future sometime I will get a chance to dive into it.

Re: Artem Taturevych's Macros
Between my Aurduino, PLC/CNC, Python, HTML and SW Macros I could probably spend a couple years of consistent work, in my free time, to get plausibly functional at these. That's just programming.Jaylin Hochstetler wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 9:45 am How did you know what I was thinking? I'm in the exact same predicament.

@Jaylin Hochstetler, take a look at these two macros:Jaylin Hochstetler wrote: ↑Fri May 07, 2021 7:33 am I found this awesome macro over there https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-ap ... roperties/.

I also include the functionality of properties editing (including cut-lists) into the next version of CAD+ (you can view and edit properties from Windows file explorer without SW being installed, you can export/import from Excel, you can get all references from assembly or run on all the files in the folder, etc.):
Thanks,

Re: Artem Taturevych's Macros
I noticed the "Copy cutlist props to file props" https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-ap ... roperties/has this functionality but I did not see that functionality in the "Link cutlist props to file props" https://www.codestack.net/solidworks-ap ... roperties/.artem wrote: ↑Sun May 09, 2021 7:06 pm @Jaylin Hochstetler, take a look at these two macros:
