Hide Selection

Dec 05, 2003 1 Replies

Hello!



I am writing a program in Visual Basic 6, connecting to Solid Works 2003 SP5.0. It inserts components to an assembly and then connects these components by adding three mates. In order to add a mate it is necessary to select two features. Now I would like to know if there is any possibility to hide the selection of these features.



Thanks,



Manuel


you mean you don't want to see the features to highlight ? I don't think it is possible because API calls like "Select" do exactly the same as in manual operation. I asked solidworks some years ago to put selections as parameters, for example AddMate(entity1,entity2,matedesc) . Check AssemblyDoc::AddMate2 to see what they did instead...
